At today's meeting of the Azerbaijani Parliament chairman of the political party "Umid" MP Iqbal Aghazadeh said that the development of Azerbaijan, which stubbornly deputies say, no more than window dressing.
According to him, every citizen annually account for 74 manat under medical care. This includes the purchase of medical equipment, operation beds, salaries of medical personnel and so on. In the absence of compulsory medical insurance money is not on purpose, and end up in the pockets of government officials.
Education - the backbone of any self-respecting state. In Azerbaijan, teachers are provided with legal maximum of 24 hours at a rate (18 hours) 168 manat. Most teachers work on one bet in remote areas get paid for 2 - 2.5 rate, with the rent, utility bills, he pays out of pocket, although the government could take that burden on themselves. Speaking of the average salary, the teacher must work for 198 years in order to get a one-time award of an Olympic champion.
Azerbaijan is not ready for long-term crisis in a drop in prices for oil and other hydrocarbons. The Soviet Union collapsed precisely because the first artificially inflate the price to $ 28 per barrel, then abruptly dropped them to 14. If suddenly the world community wants the same impact on the world's largest exporters of oil, Azerbaijan is unlikely to resist the risks. Therefore it is necessary in time to get off oil needle and develop the real economy, we must specifically, but not on paper, to deal with monopolies is fueling inflation and dampening economic development. - 17D -
