PanARMENIAN.Net - European Bank for Reconstruction and Development
issued a survey on Life in transition.
In the course of the research carried out by the European Bank
for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) in collaboration with the
World Bank at the end of 2010, about 39000 households in 34 countries
have been questioned. The polls have been conducted mainly in former
communist countries of Western Europe and several CIS countries.
Namely this region suffered most of all from crisis, according to
the bank's official web site.
This is the second survey of its kind (the first report was issued
in 2006).
The research provides vivid evidence of how lives have been affected by
the global economic crisis and its aftermath, all against the backdrop
of the two decades of social, political and economic transition.
The corruption chapter of the survey concludes that, on the whole,
people do not consider that corruption level decreased for the last
4 years. In fact, all respondents think the most corrupted areas are
road police, medical organizations and civil courts. The survey shows
that Azerbaijan is among top leaders in all spheres of corruption. On
the average 65% respondents in Azerbaijan mention that unofficial
payments are of frequent or permanent nature in those spheres.
As regards Armenia, this rate is ranging within 17%, on the average.
The highest rate in Armenia is in health care sphere making 28%.
Except for Azerbaijan, relatively high rate of corruption, according
to respondents, is fixed in Kirgizia, Albania, Turkey, Moldova and
Ukraine. In these countries the rates are dependent on the spheres.
