Jan Šinágl angažovaný občan, nezávislý publicista

As of this summer, exactly one hundred years have passed since the Czechoslovak businessman Tomáš Baťa expanded into the Netherlands. The ČT Events (September 8, 2021) brought a great report, although it was the third from the end of 34 reports. Just to clarify, the photo in the report does not show the father of Tomas Bata's son Tomík, but Jan Antonín Baťa, who took over the company and brought it to prosperity. He saved thousands of Jews during the war, yet they are still silent about this. The son of the founder, his uncle (his father's half-brother), was fraudulently deprived of the company after the war. Once the seventh largest enterprise in the world and the largest company in Czechoslovakia, it gradually began to decline and lost its importance under the leadership of Tomík.

The Czech Republic has not yet dealt with the descendants of the rightful owner of the company, Baťa, Jan Antonín Bata. They did not receive compensation for the illegally confiscated property of this successful businessman and a great patriot.
