The role of investments in economic development, discussion of social rental housing projects, and the likelihood of a rise in meat prices are topics of today's media.
The newspaper Azerbaijan reports that last year, the total share of investments in fixed assets of the country amounted to 23.2%. The task is to bring this figure to 25%.
The author notes that government investments are involved in the implementation of large projects. Investments in the real sector last year allowed to increase GDP by 2.2%. In the non-oil sector this growth was 3.5%, in the industrial sector - 1.5%, and in the non-oil sector and industrial production - 14%.
The Bizimyol.info website writes about social and rental housing projects.
A. Veliyev, an employee of the Academy of Sciences, believes that this project does not justify itself, since the prices are unacceptable and are much higher than the cost.
Talking about preferential housing is impossible.
The situation with rental housing with subsequent redemption also leaves much to be desired. The rent should not exceed 300 manat, since low-income families cannot pay this amount.
The website Musavat.com writes about the possible rise in price of meat due to a decrease in imports due to the ban of a number of countries to export meat. In 2019, 51,546 tons of meat worth $ 79 million 448 thousand was imported to Azerbaijan.
