General information
As a long-time member of the Reform Party, I have a very real opportunity to make the voice of the Southern Estonians heard in Tallinn.
As a resident of South Estonia, I know the concerns, development efforts, and needs of the rural population. They need access to vital services, and the feeling of security.
I think that the people of Estonia value honest governance, assured foreign and domestic security, and sound economy.
