Kushtrim Ajvazi, Chairman of the Kosovo Producers Association (OEK), has voiced criticism regarding the decision-making processes within various institutions that directly impact the productive sector. Ajvazi emphasized that businesses frequently lack consultation when economic laws and policies are being drafted. Speaking during “Përballje Podcast,” Ajvazi clarified that the core demand of the producers is not preferential treatment or direct subsidies.
Instead, the association is advocating for genuine inclusion in the policy development cycle. “We are not actually asking the government to come to us. We are going to them,” Ajvazi stated, according to Telegrafi.
The Chairman stressed that the issue is one of collaboration. He asserted that when decisions are being made and laws are drafted that will affect the productive sector, the input of the producers must be solicited and considered. For Ajvazi, the goal is establishing a consultative framework.
The sentiment expressed by Ajvazi suggests a desire for a more structured engagement between policymakers and the private sector. He maintained that meaningful participation from the producers in the initial stages of legislation is crucial for policies to effectively support the nation’s productive capacity. The focus remains on ensuring that the concerns and operational realities of the producers are integrated into the decision-making process.
