Week 7 (04.05-10.05) Weird political/bureaucratic situation in Poland

I would like to present peculiar situations in Poland. Firstly, I’ll show a short movie from a visit of our President Bronisław Komorowski at the building site of a bypass of Innowrocał city. Below you can watch a movie: As you may see in the presented video, machines were moving without  any purpose just  to create good background for this public event for president Komorowski.

As you know we are struggling with emigration. According to the statistics prepared by the Central Statistical Office there were 2,19 million Poles living abroad at the end of 2013. Most of emigrants decided to stay at the Continent and moved to western countries. Only 300 thousand of them left Europe. The most popular countries were the United Kingdom and Germany which were populated by more than a half of all Polish emigrants. When it comes to non-European countries most of us chose United States as a new home. Number of Polish emigrants 72% of respondents said that they had decided to leave Poland because of weak job prospects. The second reason was family affairs(15%).
