Saab causes concern in the chamber of commerce
May 23, 2011 in Uncategorized
According to GP.se (original article here)
“The western part of Sweden is still growing strong according to the chamber of commerce’s indicators. In april the economic recovery was well and the unemployment decreased. But there is a reservation for what is happening with Saab.
- Lets hope that these notices of discharge that was given by a lot of suppliers to Saab, does not turn into real unemployment say Stefan Gustavsson who is managers for the West-Swedish Chamber of Commerce in a comment to the Gothenburg Post.Stefan Gustavsson is hoping that the production at Saab will be running again soon!
- But if this should not happen, large parts of the west-coast businesses have a need for labor-force and will hopefully be able to provide a part of the people who get laid off a job.The sense among the people in the chamber is still positive but we can see a decline in the last few months. There is no need for drama, the level is setting into more normal levels according to Stefan Gustavsson.”

A little late, but nevertheless a strong signal towards Swedish politics. I can only hope that this message causes some decission making to speed up, e.g. the approval of Vladimir Antonov.
