According to the latest survey conducted by CBOS, 37 percent of Poles believe that Poland's current economic situation is bad, 20 percent say it is good and 40 percent state it is neither good nor bad, reported Parkiet.

Those from Poland’s southern neighbors are much more worried about the state of their respective countries' economic situations: 63 percent of Czechs think the Czech economy is in a bad state, while 69 percent of Slovaks and 74 percent of Hungarians think the same of their own situations.

Only 10 percent of Czechs, 5 percent of Slovakians and 2 percent of Hungarians polled said their economies were in a good condition.

Over half of Poles surveyed believe that Poland's economic situation will not change in the coming 12 months; 18 percent said they think it will improve, and 17 percent feared that it would deteriorate.
