Media Review for September 26
Promotion and encouragement of the “Made in Azerbaijan” brand, discussion of the regulation of social networks, possible chipping of people, an initiative to reduce the number of executive authorities, and recommendations of a psychologist to the authorities are topics of today's media.
The newspaper Azerbaijan writes that the geography of the brand “Made in Azerbaijan” is expanding. Agricultural products of Azerbaijan, the quality of fruits and vegetables are distinguished by their taste and richness of microelements. Now, special attention is paid to the restoration of traditional markets, as well as a worthy presentation of the Azerbaijani brand on the world markets. By the end of this year, Azerbaijani companies will take part in the third China International Import Exhibition in Shanghai.
The website Yenisabah.az comments on the statement from the ruling party in connection with social networks, which was made by the party's Executive Secretary and Deputy Prime Minister Ali Ahmadov.
He talks about the positive and negative properties of social media, which are of serious concern; in particular, spreading false information and harmful propaganda.
Public censure of such cases is ineffective, Ahmedov said. For this reason, it is necessary to create a mechanism for the legal regulation of the activities of social networks.
The website Redaktor.az discusses with Professor Akif Gurbanov the issue of possible chipping of people. This question became relevant after the appearance of the coronavirus. At the same time, the emphasis is on the negative consequences of chipization, up to the transformation of a person into a robot.
However, Gurbanov refutes these speculations. If someone wanted to chip the world's population, then it could be done by vaccinating infants.
The website Modern.az discusses a proposal to reduce the number of executive authorities. In particular, we are talking about the city of Ganja, where there are three structures of executive power – Nizami and Kapaz districts and the entire city. This issue can be considered at a meeting of the parliamentary committee of the MM and recommended for consideration by a plenary meeting of parliament.
The website Mətbuat.az cites the opinions of famous psychologists regarding quarantine restrictions. Psychologists believe that restrictions should be removed. People are tired, they have almost stopped smiling, they are no longer even afraid of this infection. Fear breeds aggression.
In addition, quarantine deals a serious blow to the financial situation of citizens, and in the fall, the depression will only worsen.
