Donald Tusk announced a fresh Google investment in Poland for respective days. Ultimately, it turned out that it was about training with the digital skills of Poles, and the value of the investment was... $5 million for 5 years. The full situation embarrassed and amused Poles, which is perfectly visible in social media. Arkadiusz Myrcha, Deputy Minister of Justice, was completely embarrassed by his performance on RMF FM, where he tried to defend the importance of the investment Donald Tusk boasted.
Do you know how much Alphabet and Google will devote to the same training for Nigeria, due to the fact that they besides talk about investment in developing the skills of Nigerian society? $2.8 billion, not $5 million.
— noted the interviewer ed. Tomasz Terlikowski.
The presence of large corporations in Poland has long been present. We have another phase of cooperation and investment
— he replied Arkadius MyrchaDeputy Minister of Justice for KO.
Are we truly satisfied with $5 million? 20 zł is 1 coffee in a better cafe in Warsaw, 2 in worse. Investment in Poland?
Terlikowski asked, noting that a million Poles are expected to be trained for these 5 million dollars.
I'm sorry, but this is specified a trivialization of training to build a digital society.
— he tried someway to justify the embarrassment of the Tusk Myrch government.
Have you read social media? That's what everybody says, not me. It's just 1 large group laugh. They're laughing at you! There's nothing worse for politicians than laughing at them.
said the interviewer.
We make it clear if we are partnering with Google and enter the next phase of cooperation, we invest. To be honest with you, even all gold dollar invested in the improvement of our citizen's digital skills is worth announcing. If it is for you to trivialize and to laugh, it is worth the fact that training worth 5 million to Polish citizens, okay
— he tried to get out of Myrch’s situation.
‘What training do you know for PLN 20?”
But again. A million people are to be trained, $5 million will hit, which means $5 per citizen, that means $20. Come on, Minister, 20 bucks. What kind of training do you know for $20? Tell me, I'd be happy to volunteer.
— continued the subject of ed. Terlikowski.
I'm not in training. But what they learn is important
— he began his answer to Myrch.
For 20 bucks? Coffee and donut
“ He put the leader in.
Mr. editor, all right. If he arranges training for you with open origin applications for example AI for 20 PLN, then you will benefit
- It burned down Myrch.
For 20 PLN there are no specified trainings
“Ko ed. Terlikowski’s policy has been highlighted.
These can be programs co-financed for local governments, I mean, really, let's invest and do anything that increases our citizens' digital skills, whether it's $5 million or $10 million.
“ Myrcha said.
You will say that I trivialize, but I yet have a gift for you with a good heart for free, the electoral slogan: “The Chrobry Bank for all trained Pole from Google for the millennium of Chrobry’s coronation”. How do you like it? Well, I'm trivializing
— he joked about the disgrace of the Tusk ed. Terlikowski government.
