How is the Government being manipulated with employment figures? Wrong comparison by 2020: During the pandemic, about 25,000 jobs were lost due to economic closure. With its opening in 2021, these jobs returned. But the government is counting as new jobs.
Rukiqi points out that countries formed only in 2023 are being reported as new jobs.
<x0) Formed jobs (about 4,000-5,000 formalised jobs, only in 2023, according to the World Bank), are also being reported as new jobs”, he says.
Rukiqi has declared that prior to the pandemic, in 2015-2019, 66 thousand and 240 jobs were created, while following the pandemic in 2021-2023, 42 thousand were created.
“What is truth? Before pandemic (2015-2019): A total of 16,560 jobs were created. After pandemic, with this government (2021-2023): Only 42,195 jobs average 14,065 a year. Add Rukiqi for FrontOnline.
