  • State Programme on Poverty Reduction and Economic Development 2003-2005 Azerbaijan Progresses Toward the Achievement of the Mill
    STATE PROGRAMME ON POVERTY REDUCTION AND ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT 2003-2005 AZERBAIJAN PROGRESSES TOWARD THE ACHIEVEMENT OF THE MILLENNIUM DEVELOPMENT GOALS PROGRESS REPORT – 2003/2004 BAKU – 2005 DECREE OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE REPUBLIC OF AZERBAIJAN on Approval of the State Programme on Poverty Reduction and Economic Development in the Republic of Azerbaijan for 2003-2005 The consistent reform program carried out in the Republic of Azerbaijan in recent years has helped to ensure economic development, gradual improvement of macroeconomic performance and improvement of the living standards in the country. Thus, in the period 1996-2002, Gross Domestic Product increased by 1.7 times, capital investment increased by 7.8 times, nominal monetary income of population increased by 3 times and average monthly wages and pensions increased by 5 times. There are improvements in other economic performance indicators. However, these ongoing efforts and achievements have not yet led to a sufficiently high level of economic development and the living standards of the population have still not reached international standards: part of population is still unemployed, minimum wages are not sufficient to meet the minimum subsistence level and a number of factors causing poverty have not been eliminated. In order to further strengthen social protection of the population for the near future, ensure poverty reduction in the country and implement necessary measures to meet the commitments of the 2000 United Nations Millennium Summit, I hereby decree: 1. The “State Program on Poverty Reduction and Economic Development in the Republic of Azerbaijan for 2003-2005” shall be approved. 2. The Ministry of Economic Development of the Republic of Azerbaijan shall be responsible for coordinating the implementation of measures set out in the State Program.

Department of the Azerbaijani Language and Literature Baku Engineering University, Azerbaijan, Baku DOI: https://doi.org/10.31435/rsglobal_wos/28022020/6915 ARTICLE INFO ABSTRACT Received: 14 December 2019 Discovering and categorizing phonetic, morphological and lexical units Accepted: 19 February 2020 related to different languages in any language, studying the factors and Published: 28 February 2020 forms of language connections are still among trending issues nowadays. Special importance has been attached on dialect lexicon of languages, KEYWORDS historical-comparative study of literary language and finding out various language elements in the paper. Some researchers support that as Turkic the Azerbaijani language, peoples have been formed as independent or semi-independent nations the Turkish language, completing ethnosocial differentiation process since the late Middle literary language, Ages, their languages differ from one another to some extent. The dialect, emergence of different Turkic states has led to the appearance of phonosemantics common and various features in the peoples and their languages who experienced public-political differentiation. In this case if the existing analogical features are proof for the closeness of these languages, distinct features are indeed the confirmation of peculiar development direction of each language. The research work provides some vision about common and distinctive features of the Azerbaijani language dialects and the Turkish language. The characteristics of languages’ mutual influence are reflected in language material. Citation: Teymurlu Z. M.

Journal of Water and Land Development. No. 17 p. 61–67 Abstract Detailed information about the water and physical properties of irrigated soils in the Massif of Mugan- -Salyan is given in the paper. Results of the study showed differences in the soil properties. The field water ca- pacity of soil in the zone was 25.32–30.30% or 1.26–1.56 g·cm–3, particle density was 2.53–2.88 g·cm–3, porosity – 44.16–54.20%; clay content – 22.54–70.10% and the velocity of soaking the soil with water ranged between 9.24 and 55.84 cm·h–1. Such variability of the indices points to a need for reclamation measures in the soils.

  • Updated Road Map and Investment Plan
    Second Road Network Development Investment Program (RRP AZE 45389) UPDATED ROAD MAP AND INVESTMENT PLAN I. Road Map 1. In the past, Azerbaijan’s economy has been mainly dependent on the oil sector revenues. With the oil boom expected to last for a finite period, the Government has put emphasis on the development of non-oil sector infrastructure and as such, over the past few years, Azerbaijan has been rehabilitating and developing the non-oil sector infrastructure needed to realize rapid growth, benefiting from increasing oil and gas revenues, and also putting in place a credible framework to effectively manage the increase in resource flows. The development of transport infrastructure is one of the key tasks of the Government to sustain GDP growth and promote trade with the neighbouring countries. The strategic objective of trade expansion will help realize the vast potential for continental trade spanning the entire Eurasian region, which will inevitably traverse Central Asia. Improvements in the road transport corridor infrastructure will play a major role, not only in enlarging markets, but also in determining product choices and their potential to link with the regional production networks.1 While the improvements of road infrastructure will stimulate growth of all businesses, small businesses will also gain substantially. It will also boost agriculture in the project area as more and more farmers will be able to transport their produce to important cities in Azerbaijan and to other places. 2. The Government has set improvement of road transport infrastructure as one of the priorities, which is part of major strategic pillars of the State Program on Poverty Reduction and Economic Development (SPPRED) for 2008–20152 and the State Program on Socioeconomic Development of Regions (2009–2014), and considered to be critical for the expansion of the non-oil sector and for the improvement of the living standards of the low-income population.
