Media Review December 10, 2019
Elimination of unemployment, expert assumptions for next year, and floods in Baku are the topics of today's media.
The newspaper Azerbaijan writes that unemployment, as a social problem, is completely eliminated. Unemployment in the country is reduced to 5%.
The Sustainable and Operational Social Security (SOSS) project, as well as a number of other programs under the Ministry of Labor and Social Security plays an important role in this.
From 2019 to 2025, it is planned to open 31 of the SOSS Center. Through this system, you can directly communicate with the employer and solve the issue of employment.
In 2018, 7,267 people were involved in self-employment. In 2019, it was planned to attract 10 thousand families to the self-employment program.
The website Musavat.com writes about economic forecasts for 2020. In 2020, oil will cost between 57-62 or 55-60 dollars per barrel. Now it’s difficult to predict the price, since the economic factor is no longer decisive. Over the past three years, the decisions of OPEC and other countries have affected the price of oil, also affected by geopolitics, war, and economic sanctions.
As for the influence on Azerbaijan, the manat will remain stable until the parliamentary elections, and utility prices will remain unchanged.
The website Oxu.az writes about the floods in Baku after the next rains. One of the heavily damaged streets is Aliaga Vahid in the Sabunchu district of the capital. In the basements of houses, the water level is 40 cm. Despite their repeated complaints, the relevant structures do not take measures. They answer that in the current situation they can not help, since there are no pumps for pumping water.
As for the sewer system, they promised to build it soon.
