Dirk Flax recently became an Austrian citizen. He was born in the GDR, but does not belong to the “Ostalgici”. Vorarlberg has long been the new home of the qualified engineer.
A few weeks ago, he accepted Austrian citizenship as part of the manor’s monthly naturalization ceremonies. I ask Dirk Vlas, who graduated as an electrical engineer, whether that wasn’t a strange moment for him, leaving his homeland behind for good, handing in his German passport and hearing the Austrian national anthem. The young man, very reserved and thoughtful, thinks for a long time. Then he says, “Yes, yes. That was a strange moment. That triggered something in me.”
