Yesterday the Prime Minister of Armenia declared that the fight against corruption existing in our country will be strengthened and in order to make decisive actions ‘surgical methods will be implemented’. The Prime Minister’s hint concerns the surgery of the ‘appendix” or the “heart”? Will the surgery be accompanied by general anesthesia or only partial?

Why the soldier avoids serving in the army? Why more or less educated people are willing to escape from their own country? Because people from young to old feel unsecure, unprotected.

Who needs large-sized state departments with their satellite institutions and PIU’s fed by the state budget, if they do not serve for the people or in the best case they serve for the families and relatives of the people working for the state departments. Learning about the laws and decisions in their own country became something valuable for the people, not even mentioning using them.

Recently it was found out by pure coincidence that the family members of the person who is in a military service are included in the socially vulnerable groups and separate (special) groups and have the right of free medical treatment and special expensive diagnostics free of charge by the decision No. 318-N of the RA Government of from 2004.

In the scope of the ‘Special and arduous diagnostics’ program, the family members of the serviceman have the right of diagnostics free of charge in 24 medical institutions set by the RA Ministry of Healthcare. By the way, the medical institutions provide services that include diagnostics with the cost of 150-175 thousand AMD, magnetic-resonance tomography with the cost of 110 thousand AMD, computer tomography 70 thousand AMD etc.

Ordinary citizens are not interested, which ‘organ’ of the Government is more infected. People want to see the results and be protected from the tornado of corruption. Why the laws are adopted, decisions are made if they remain inside the boxes of the officials and stay unreachable for ordinary citizens?

Keeping people in an information vacuum is nothing but a powerful source of corruption. While the citizen does not know what to do in which case and whom to ask, does not know his/her rights, nothing will work out.
