“SERGE SARGSYAN WILL BECOME PRESIDENT”

Politics

“Everything is foreseen”, believes psychologist Karine Nalchajyan. The 2008 presidential elections are also in the list of those previsions. “As everyone thinks, Serge Sargsyan will become the president”.

In her opinion, there are people who anticipate something form each election. “Socially provided people vote thinking”, considers Mrs Nalchajyan. Comparing women and men, the psychologist noted that men are contributing to corruption. “Women are social creatures. When a woman does something, she thinks about the surroundings more than a man. Men are focused on their achievements. Thus, they are more fearless to accept a bribe or to give it, than women”.

According to her, power causes giddiness and men go for it. “When a man fights for power, he closes eyes upon everything”. The best way to combat election frauds and corruption is not to enforce punishment. “When they say that no strict punishment will be applied, they calm down the bribe-takers. They should fear”. The psychologist finds that an ordinary citizen always follows his leader and thinks of corruption.

“Taking a bribe is accepted phenomenon in the society today and it sometimes concurs with power. When a person has the opportunity to take a bribe but does not do so, he makes the impression of a weak individual”. Mrs Nalchajyan believes that it is of no use to hope that taking a bribe will offend one’s self-esteem. “When a person is offered a bribe and he gets offended, it means that the person is morally mature. However there is a certain category of individuals, who prioritize their importance when they are offered a bribe”. Karine Nalchajyan noted that allocating a bribe in political procedures contributes to immorality. “The society spoils and to alter something spoiled is very difficult”.

The psychologist confirmed that the authorities stand benefit from a demoralized society. “An immoral person may betray any moment. He can never be a mainstay. If he sells his vote for 3000 drams today he may sell it for 3100 to another person”. Karine Nalchajyan considers that the demoralization of our society began during the 1996 presidential elections. “People understood that they could vote but in the result they would have the portrait, which had nothing to do with their choice. Today the election frauds have been improved”.
