A Safe and Comfortable Vantaa for Everyone – Jasi Kuokkanen, Your #edustaJASI in the City Council
Vantaa is growing rapidly, and it’s crucial to ensure that basic services function well, housing remains affordable, and the city’s economy is on a sustainable foundation. I am running in the municipal elections because I want to ensure that every resident of Vantaa has the opportunity for a good everyday life – regardless of their place of residence, background, or financial situation.
I work as a CEO in the real estate sector and have extensive experience in politics. I have been involved in Vantaa’s decision-making as a deputy councilor, in the city board, various committees, and on the boards of city-owned companies. This experience has strengthened my expertise, especially in the areas of finance and housing policy.
Nearly 60% of municipal budgets are allocated to children and young people through early childhood education, pre-primary and basic education, and secondary education. Children and young people are the best investment in the future. Vantaa must prioritize the well-being of families and children.
