Letter to the Editor – Jobs – Liechtensteiner Volksblatt, the daily newspaper for Liechtenstein
On October 21, 2022, there were three interesting reports in our newspapers that happen to have a direct connection. The first report presented the new study by the Zukunft.li foundation entitled “Economic growth in the trilemma between growth, environment and quality of life”. Peter Eisenhut and Thomas Lorenz that the study comes to the conclusion that in Liechtenstein it should no longer be about generating economic growth per se, but that politics should concentrate on the areas of quality of life. The conclusion is not surprising given that we depend on cross-border workers dying for more than 50 percent of our jobs.
The second report reports that Hoval will create 50 new jobs in Vaduz for heat pump production.
In the third report, one can read that 2263 signatures were submitted to the government for a casino ban.
These three reports will help. We now have the rare opportunity to vote on which jobs Liechtenstein should offer: for gambling or rather for other areas such as e.g. B. Heat pump production. Let’s take the chance!
