Markus Wölbitsch shaped the Vienna People’s Party – we thank him from the heart

With the conclusion of the current political period, club chairman Markus Wölbitsch will withdraw from active politics. After many years of committed work in the service of the Viennese and the Vienna People’s Party, he will take over the fruit and wine-growing company of his family at the end of the year, the Schön Earth estate in Wachau and Langenlois.

“Markus Wölbitsch left essential traces in a wide variety of functions – from the state manager to the club chairman of the town hall club. With his clever, connecting and always solution -oriented nature, he was and is respected and valued far beyond party borders,” said State party chairman, City Councilor Karl Mahrer.

A democrat with handshake quality

Wölbitsch was not only a guarantee of reliability, seriousness and depth in terms of content – but also a real democrat with handshake quality. “If Markus Wölbitsch has promised something, then that has been applied – without ifs and buts. At a time when a lot of things rotate faster, he was a resting pole with attitude. He showed: You can want a lot, but first you always have to stay human,” said Mahrer.

A person who lived democracy

In his political career, Markus Wölbitsch was a pioneer for parliamentary control and living parliamentarianism. With his calm but certain nature, he was a credible representative of a fact -oriented policy – someone who never put things about people.

“In the name of the entire Viennese People’s Party, I thank Markus Wölbitsch for his tireless efforts, his loyalty and friendship. We lose an excellent colleague – but keep a friend who stays connected to us. For his new way on the” Landgut Schöne Earth ‘in Langenlois – and look forward to visiting it. And as he said yesterday in the local council: a human being – thank you! ” Mahrer concluded.
