The corruption network in Azerbaijan is still prevalent after the presidential elections on October 9. In Azerbaijan, many high-ranking officials are involved in large-scale corruption, said former presidential candidate of the National Council of Democratic Forces (NCJA) Jamil Hasanli at the press conference on 27 November, answering the question of Turan about the reshuffle after the election. According Hasanli, the replacement of some officials does not solve the problem. "To solve the problem it is necessary to change the system of political, economic, social control," he said.
As an example, Hasanli cited the experience of Korea. Prior to the 1950s, Korea had a single management system. Thereafter, South Korea changed the control system and the country's progress is evident. Hasanli announced the forthcoming creation of a study group, or a Commission Against Corruption in the National Council. -03C06-
