Iqbal Aghazadeh: How can teachers survive with 168 manat?

In the course of today's discussion of the draft budget for 2015 in the parliament,  the MP Iqbal Aghazadeh criticized the neglect of teachers. In particular, he noted that the school teachers for 24 hours of work per month receive 168 manats, and the higher wage is not allowed by law. "How can a teacher live with 168 manat a month?"  said Aghazadeh. Speaking about the  university professors, he said that  teachers that are not staff of the university  receive AZN 2 per hour.

Will an  professional teacher  go to the audience for such a payment? What  can be a quality of teaching in these universities ? said Aghazadeh,

Further, he is not happy also  with the order  of giving job  in  civil service, where persons  over  30 years of age are not allowed to test exams. "I cannot understand why specialists  who are 45 years old cannot be good ? Why does not  the state like their  education? It reminds ads in stores, hiring only young girls. We must put an end to such discrimination," demanded Aghazadeh.

He also criticized  not increasing  finance for political parties despite the growth of financing in other structures.

Aghazadeh also supported simplification of mortgage lending. Now the mortgage is issued only to young people, with a salary of not less than 700 manats per month.

 The MP Azay Guliyev spoke  of insufficient funding of NGOs, and appealed to the Minister of Finance Samir Sharifov to reconsider the amount of aid  for NGOs in the draft budget 2015.

"Our NGO  are   by 35% financed from abroad. This increases their dependence on foreign funds, and affects the national security of Azerbaijan. Our NGOs receive from abroad  annually  $23 million. Therefore, I propose to increase the public funding local NGOs.

 The six million  manat intended  in the project for this purposes are not sufficient, because  two million of this amount  is spent on financing the promotion of the State Council of NGOs, and  only four million manat remains for  the  NGOs.  This sum should be increased  up to 10 million," said Guliyev. Chairman of the Milli Majlis Oktay Asadov supported him. -02D-
