The Baselland Chamber of Commerce (Swiss Press Text 2016, by Christian Mensch) - Swiss Press Award

Christian Mensch

Its director was not elected to the National Council, and the public prosecutor's office and the Swiss Federal Office for Economic Affairs (SECO) are scrutinizing its business practices.
