Reforms making investment attractive, the situation on the former Sovetsky Street, the need for housing, and dissatisfaction with the self-employment program are the leading topics of today's media.
The newspaper Azerbaijan writes that economic reforms create an environment for investment. Last year, 999 entrepreneurs were granted loans in the amount of 160 million manat.
In 2018, more than 17 billion manat was invested in the fixed capital. As for foreign investments, their volume amounted to 222.1 million manat. 82% of these investments were in Turkey, Malaysia, the USA, Japan, Iran, Russia, the Czech Republic and Norway.
The website Trend.az writes about the situation with the demolition of the Sovetsky Street houses. Currently, the second phase of the demolition of old houses in this part of the city has begun. Most of the territory has already been cleared of uninhabitable houses.
The territory has already begun the process of landscaping, which will reach the Teze Pir mosque. The process of demolishing old houses and neighborhoods is planned for Kubinka. But it is not yet known when exactly this process will begin.
Companies interested in the development of their business can take part in local demolition.
The website Oxu.az writes about the housing needs of the citizens of the country.
It's about the transfer of ownership of rental housing through the State Mortgage Guarantee Fund.
The number of persons who purchased an electronic office in the Preferred Housing system is 10,242. They are offered a total of 324 apartments. This is an indicator of how great the need is. In 2019, 150 million manat is planned to be allocated for the mortgage.
The website Marja.az writes about the dissatisfaction of people who, as part of the self-employment program, acquired home animals. But people complain that they are sold sick animals that die later. -0--
