"If the authorities aim to combat against corruption they must start
from oligarchs and rigged elections," says Amalia Kostanian, the
Chairwoman of the Transparency International (TI) anti- corruption
center.
TI's Global Corruption Report 2009 shows the main legal and
institutional anti-corruption changes effected in the republic from
June 1, 2007, to May 31, 2008.
In the part Corruption and the Private Sector (GCR), the report refers
to state bodies' chase against "Royal Armenia" and GALA Companies.
Amalia Kostanian says their report differs from those of other
countries since "the report doesn't speak of a businessman bribing the
authorities. We find it useless to speak about this phenomenon as the
two spheres are interwoven."
TI Chairwoman sees no explicit combat against corruption in Armenia.
"All their efforts are imitated. What's the use of this farce after
the rigged elections?" says Ms. Kostanian and adds the authorities had
better direct the money to pensioners and vulnerable people."
