    Five authors have been named the winners of the literary contest of
    anti-corruption works. 46 compositions were presented in the contest
    initiated by the OSCE Office in Yerevan and RA Writers' Union.

    IN the prose genre the winner was Amrikyan, while the author of the
    best poem was Manvel Mikoyan of Vanadzor.

    Dramatist Samvel Kosyan was named the winner in the theatric
    genre. Hrachya Matevosyan and Margo Ghukasyan were the best in the
    genre of publicism.

    Nikita Zarubyan was awarded a special prize for periodically
    highlighting corruption phenomena.

    During the awarding ceremony today Head of the OSCE Office in
    Yerevan Vladimir Pryakhin said that this contest comprises part of
    the anti-corruption program of the Office. According to him, this
    widely spread phenomenon hinders the economic development in Armenia
    and a number of other post-Soviet states.

    Therefore, the struggle against it should be carried out not only by
    the government, but also the society. Vladimir Pryakhin noted also that
    the increase of tax revenues of the state budget evidences that the
    fight against corruption in the country is yielding certain results.
