I remember as a kid I would read a lot of books. I started with reading different tales. One thing I never forget and would love to apply to my country today. In those tales King (Padishah) would wear old clothes and would become unrecognizable. He would walk around the city, talk to people ask them questions about "How the King manages the country? What do you think of King?" People would never recognize him and share their problems or positive opinions about the King. At the end King would go back to his kingdom and start doing reforms for the best future of his kingdom. But today? Do president really hears people's problems? If someone would talk about the problems of country today he/she would get arrested as some of the NIDA members. "Azadliq" (Freedom) Radio Station has interviewed random people from different proffesional backgorunds in the city of Baku. The question was: if you had an opportunity to meet president what would you tell him? The ...

But what was the purpose of coffeehouses? People would discuss different important topics in this place specially politics. Different political groups would use this places for political meetings. Now let's go back to Azerbaijan, 21 st century. So called democratic country. The opposition party has been deprived from their offices. They have been organizing their meetings in "Teahouses" (Since teahouses are famous place for men to spend their time). But unfortunately teahouses were not as influenced  on country's development as the coffee houses in England. The main reason is the owners do not want to have the opposition party in their tea houses, because they are afraid that government can take their property away.  Yesterday,  June 29, 2013, the opposition party tried to have their nex...
