As part of his visit, Mr Lee also attended the opening ceremony of the new Keppel-State Oil Company of Azerbaijan (SOCAR) shipyard on 20 September, alongside Azerbaijan President Ilham Aliyev and Keppel Corporation Chairman Dr Lee Boon Yang. The economic and bilateral relationship between Singapore and Azerbaijan has been growing in the recent years with Ministers from the two countries making official visits on both sides. Several Singapore companies like Keppel Offshore & Marine Ltd and Franklin Offshore Group have established a presence in Azerbaijan, supporting the operations of large oil and gas companies. With Azerbaijan’s growing economy, there are opportunities for closer collaboration between Singapore and Azerbaijan and for Singapore companies to explore business and investment possibilities in the Azerbaijan market. The new Keppel-SOCAR shipyard is one such example. The shipyard is a joint venture by Keppel Offshore & Marine (a subsidiary of Keppel Corporation), SOCAR and the Azerbaijan Investment Company (AIC). “Azerbaijan has developed rapidly and its GDP has grown 3.45 times in the last 10 years. The country is making deliberate and sustained investments in infrastructure and capacity building as ways to diversify its economy, adding to oil and gas. Baku itself has been greatly modernised and transformed. Keppel’s investments in first Caspian Sea Shipyard and now the inauguration of the Baku Shipyard represent significant milestones not just for the growth of the companies in Azerbaijan but also a symbol of closer economic partnership between Azerbaijan and Singapore.” “As Azerbaijan continues to develop, it will offer many opportunities for our companies in consultancy services, infrastructure design and urban planning.

Formative and Educational Aspect of Azerbaijan. the Pedagogical Message of the Poet Mirza Shafi Vaseh (1794-1852)
Geopolitical, Social Security and Freedom Journal, Volume 1 Issue 2, 2018 Formative and educational aspect of Azerbaijan. The pedagogical message of the poet Mirza Shafi Vaseh (1794-1852) Kristina Mamayusupova M.A. in Education Science at University of Genoa, email: [email protected] Doi: 10.2478/gssfj-2018-0016 Abstract The economy of Azerbaijan has been moving forward towards “diversification” for many years and has not been focusing on the petrol sector anymore, but on a variety of fields, education above the others. Azeri education is deeply rooted in sport and health policies, and it finds expression in various sports events promoted by the Government. The history of juvenile politics dates back to 1994, thanks to the authoritative promotional effort of the national leader Gaydar Aliyev. Azeri young people between 14 and 29 are regularly involved in all these events, actively participating in conferences and international scientific research projects. Azerbaijan aims above all at improving the knowledge of the English language among pupils, university students, and leading scientists. Azeri school is a formative and educational laboratory where events promoted by the Ministry of Education are often experimented. Since 2016 Azerbaijan has been focusing on making the Azeri society online-oriented, focusing on immediacy and material, effort, and time-saving. Education is firmly based on the lifelong learning approach, that is fundamental for today's personal and professional fulfilment. Human beings create their deep inner reality by educating themselves and the others and, in order to feed their souls, they often resort to the literary world, which is full of formative and educational elements.
