I'd be cautious with this article, it's a portal of the national Polish Press Agency and the link was posted by a 2-hour old account.

“As we have come to realize in recent years, Poland is often portrayed in foreign media not entirely accurately, and we want to gently modify this picture,” the president of the Polish Press Agency said in an interview.

As he went on to say, the aim of the website’s creators is to “reach specific opinion-forming circles” with the help of social media.

The western media has portrayed Poland inaccurately for years now. Decades, even. To anyone who has spent time in the country, it is blatantly obvious. As such, if you're going to suggest caution, I suggest it is toward all media organizations. Which is a good attitude to have in general, IMO.
In which way is it portrayed and what is the reality?
Not saying you shouldn’t be cautious, however, in this case someone already posted a link to the source material from OECD in another comment here.

Yes, I created my account today.

So what's the message that's to be read if you could read between the lines?
