The history of independence of Azerbaijan, the problems of the hotel business, and state-owned enterprises that do not pay for their expenses are the leading themes of today's media.
The newspaper Azerbaijan devotes its article to the 101st anniversary of the Azerbaijan People's Republic. The author makes a small insight into the history from formation to the fall of the first democratic republic in the entire Muslim East, and also assesses the 23-month activity of the APR. The author writes about the revival of the independence of Azerbaijan on October 18, 1991.
The website Yenisabah.az writes about the hotel business, high prices in hotels and their belonging to high-ranking officials. Experts believe the prices in hotels are very high, their owners mostly care about their profits, and do not try to attract tourists to the country with favorable prices. In this way it will be difficult to win loyal customers for a long period. And this is the basic rule of business. In view of the high prices for hotels, tourists choose neighboring Georgia. The author also writes that on the eve of the Europa League football match, several hotels increased the cost of living by 2-3 times, which can adversely affect the image of the country and distract tourists from Azerbaijan.
The website Ona.az writes about the expenses of state-owned companies, which often exceed their revenues. Of the 6 state-owned companies, 4 have more expenses than revenues. In this regard, the article shows the Azerbaijani Railways CJSC as an example. In 2018, this company paid 15.8 million manat to the state budget. The expenses of this company were 38 times more and amounted to 607.5 million AZN. Azersu OJSC paid 27.5 million manat to the state budget in 2018, and was allocated 17 times more from the state budget - 431.3 million manat. The author also cites the example of SOCAR and AZAL, where the situation is similar. -0-
