Ukraine might be the most efficient user of taxpayer money considering we spent 2 million euros renaming the “ministry of safety and justice” into “ministry of justice and safety”
Saying this as a dutch taxpayers im happy when it gets spend on helping Ukraine.
(Also propagandists like to think that when x amout of money is being send to Ukraine its train cars full of cash, when in fact its military equipment)
It’s very inefficient with lots of red tape, processes to follow and meetings with designers, lawyers and managers before the work can start. And then every change must be agreed on by different departments. Each person touching this project will write their hours onto the bill.
Sounds like my own country tbh lmfao. At the end they will have spent 2 billion and unable to show useful results. It went to advisors mostly. Just so happens that said advisors are related to the decision makers.
Het veranderen van de naam van het ministerie van Veiligheid en Justitie in Justitie en Veiligheid kost ruim 2 miljoen euro. Dat gaat onder meer op aan het aanpassen van de e-mailadressen van de medewerkers.
“Ukraine is evil for dutch taxpayers”

How does that work? How does changing a name cost any money, let alone millions?
I rename my iPhone every other week because it keeps changing after connecting to PC. Free of charge! Lmao.
Signage, websites, letterheads and stuff. Everything that has the old name has to be redone.
That can’t possibly cost 2 million tho lol. Unless it’s the good old corruption. 2000€ per sign changed. And every letter head billed individually.
