    Every check by the Control Chamber of Armenia in one public
    administrationbody
    or another causes a blast. The same picture is everywhere. Public
    funds are mismanaged, wasted. It is not a surprise for a system based on
    stealing, kickback and protectionism.

    Revelations by the Control Chamber show that even if the scarce funds were
    spent reasonably and targeted, there would be change in Armenia, social
    benefits and salaries would grow, roads would be better and so on. And if
    informal economy were reduced, changes would be more visible, to say
    nothing of billions of foreign grants and loans which seem to have moved
    directly into the pockets of government officials.

    The problem is not the size of the budget but its management. If the
    previous governments spent the budget effectively, there would be welfare
    in Armenia.

    Instead the budget was torn to parts by those groups who appeared in
    government on party lists and destroyed the Constitution and electoral
    mechanisms, ensuring the reproduction of the government. In return for
    their service to the government they could reach the country's resource,
    turning the budget into slush funds. And the society got a very small part
    of it in the form of miserable salaries and
    pensionsand
    crocodile's tears for shortage of money and global crisis. As a result
    we have misery of people, dirty and ruined villages and cities.

    Recently the president of the Control Chamber Ishkhan Zakaryan has
    announced in parliament that they only check and submit records to law
    enforcement bodies. So far the law enforcement bodies have not proceeded
    with any significant case. And the government has mainly used the results
    of checks as compromising materials to keep the system under control.

    Now after Serzh Sargsyan's famous meeting some people have been arrested. Some
    people say it is an electoral show, others say he is set to render harmless
    his opponents. Serzh Sargsyan instructed the law enforcement bodies to
    beginwith the head,
    and some heads have been affected. After
    the election it will already be possible to count the heads. At least few
    people believe this is real struggle against corruption because fish rots
    from the head down.

    An indicator will be how Ishkhan Zakaryan will end up.
