A turning point may have been reached this week in the Polish Senate, when one of the senators of the ruling party PO delivered a speech on how Polish business working on road deals for the state have suffered. Antoni Motyczka, a Polish professor at Warsaw’s University of Technology, revealed the behind-scene facts about public tenders in Poland. He said quite clearly that as the dust has been settling over the biggest Polish road investments, those who won the tenders have had the toughest time of it. Those who lost, he suggested, were fortunate.
“I’ve employed 500 workers for many years at my construction business, and I have to say, there’s never been this kind of disaster and this kind of rabble as now.” The senator claims the Polish builders were deceived by both foreign businesses and by Polish government. “We’ve all been setting up this country and we are all now the ones who want to destroy it,” said Motyczka who demand that a new law be passed in order to prevent the crisis to deepen. “We’re the ones who now have to create the law, that would protect our businesses,” he appealed. “It can’t be the regulations, as that would work only until the next elections. It need to be the law written to last dozens of years.”
