Sławomir Majman, president of the Polish Information and Foreign Investment Agency (PAIiIZ), said that the value of 2012 foreign direct investments in Poland is estimated at $12 billion. Mr Majman was commenting on earlier press reports saying that FDI inflow into the Czech Republic last year was higher than it was in Poland.

Mr Majman responded that PAIiIZ had helped create over 10,000 jobs, while the Czech agency could only boast half of that number.
