Janša at the MOS announced the restructuring of the public sector

At the opening of the International Opportunities and Cooperation Exhibition (MOS) in Celje, Prime Minister Janez Janša announced plans to restructure the public sector, aiming to gradually transfer approximately 50,000 public sector employees into the private sector without layoffs, primarily through natural attrition and transitions. He highlighted that the number of public sector jobs has increased by around 126,000 since independence, reaching nearly 196,000 in 2025. Janša emphasized the need to redirect part of the human resource potential into the private sector where there is significant demand for labor. He also mentioned the establishment of a strategic council for economy led by President of the State Council Marko Lotrič, which would consolidate proposals from economic associations and entrepreneurs into concrete measures. Additionally, he suggested restructuring secondary and tertiary education programs and increasing emphasis on lifelong learning. Business representative Blaž Cvar noted that MOS provides a direct dialogue platform between businesses and decision-makers, expecting a more favorable business environment for entrepreneurship and investment.

The article discusses the ruling coalition in Slovenia, criticizing their approach to governance under the slogans of 'people power' and 'popular sovereignty.' It argues that the coalition uses these principles as justification for implementing policies without regard for public opinion or expert advice. The article highlights the appointment of MP Boris Mijič to represent Slovenia at the Council of Europe, noting his financial issues and lack of public visibility. It criticizes the coalition’s quiet diplomacy and suggests this reflects a strategy of passive compliance with new allies’ demands. The piece further speculates that the coalition plans to move 50,000 public sector employees into private-sector roles, drawing parallels to historical examples like Cambodia under the Khmer Rouge. This shift would involve transferring resources from public services such as healthcare and education to private institutions.

Bias read (Progressive): The article strongly criticizes the ruling coalition's policies, portraying them as authoritarian and dismissive of public input. It frames the coalition's actions, such as moving public workers to private sectors, as harmful and reminiscent of oppressive regimes. The tone is critical of the current政府
