"They split one salary into two", Sula calls on citizens: Don't be fooled by electoral employment

"They split one salary into two", Sula calls on citizens: Don't

DP MP Dashnor Sula has appealed to citizens not to be deceived by electoral recruitment on the eve of the elections. 

In a post on his Facebook social network, the MP writes that this government has expelled Albanians from their country and left here as many as it can to control the vote through employment.


Full post:

The government reduces the population but increases the number of administrative employees.

Albania must be the most unique case in the world where, at a time when the population is falling drastically, the number of employees in the country is increasing.

Since 2013, when the current majority came to power, according to Eurostat and other statistics, over 1 million Albanians have left Albania to secure a better life in the EU or Britain and the USA. At a time when our country is recording these figures of Albania's emptying, the public administration, that is, those who are employed to serve the citizens of this country, have grown exponentially.

185,696 people are paid by Albanian taxpayers. Meanwhile, when we are still 4 months away from the elections, the government has announced another 1200 vacancies for employment in the state. There is no disproportion, the only problem in this fact. The government takes hundreds of millions of euros from Albanian taxpayers to prepare systems so that services can be received through technology and contact with the citizen is avoided. But despite the money spent, the administration only swells and this for a simple purpose, to manipulate the election results.

This government has expelled Albanians from their country and left as many here as it can to control the vote through employment.

In the European Union, state employment accounts for 16% of the total, compared to 26% in our country. Germany has only 11% of employees in the state. The trend in Europe is towards reducing public administration. In Albania, since 2013, the administration has swelled with over 21 thousand civil servants, a quarter of them directors and other senior civil servants. The reforms undertaken, such as the administrative-territorial one, where we moved from the system of communes to 61 municipalities, brought the opposite effect to the one expected, increasing the number of employees by 50%.

Don't be fooled by electoral hiring. What this government is doing is disrespecting citizens. They divide one salary into 2 salaries just to get votes. Instead of increasing the salary of those who work, they divide their salary in half because the patronage agents are paid with the other half of those who work.
