Column “Krone” – When a minister is hiding from big trouble

Date:

Markus Hengstschläger raised an important educational topic in the “Kronen Zeitung”: more education and resources for the little ones. Unfortunately, the responsible minister is not interested.

Imagine you are the Minister of Education. In the country’s most read daily newspaper, one of the country’s most important and best-known scientists formulates a passionate plea for an important and concrete change in the Austrian education system. What are you doing? You pick up your cell phone and call the good man. As Minister of Education, you probably kept Markus Hengstschläger’s number. Or if you’re not the easy-going minister of education type, ask your office to contact and arrange an appointment with the board of directors of MedUni Vienna’s Institute for Medical Genetics. But you are not Minister of Education, that is a certain Martin Polaschek. What did he do after Hengstschläger’s plea was published in the “Kronen Zeitung”? Nothing.
