Editor's note: The end of postulates

It is understandable - politicians running in the elections are more interested in the future. But that's exactly the problem as we don't really know what the future organized by the new government is going to look like. We are only roughly familiar with general ideas and slogans. We know the direction but not the path the future government intends to follow.

Now that we're through with parliamentary elections, the time has come to ruthlessly hold the politicians to their pre-electoral promises. We need to bear in mind, though, that the electoral campaign is not over yet.

The strength of the future government and its Prime Minister is strongly dependent on which of the candidates is going to win the presidential battle. That's why the pressure will be on until the end of the presidential elections. 

However, business dislikes uncertainty. It wants concrete solutions. It knows its goals and how to achieve them. But it also needs to know in what environment it is going to operate.

In this issue of the Warsaw Business Journal, CEOs of leading companies share their expectations towards the new government. On the list of priorities there are among others the reform of the judiciary, the simplification of the tax system and the decrease of tax rates, the limitation of red tape and the promotion of Poland abroad.

On behalf of our readers - Polish and foreign businesspeople shaping the Polish economy - I would like to address the emerging government. Could you please, as soon as possible, come up with a detailed economic program and an explanation of how you are going to implement it? It's very important for us. And it should be important to you that the companies operating in Poland grow and invest the money they earn. This deal is good for Poland.
