Making Tbilisi City Hall free from corruption would allow the people of Tbilisi to enjoy the real benefits of the billions in the city budget. At the same time, thousands of people who work honestly and professionally in Tbilisi City Hall would be properly rewarded.
Today up to thirty thousand people work in City Hall. Their number has increased by at least seven to eight thousand in recent years. This nepotistic and corrupt system prevents us from solving the most acute social or infrastructure problems facing Tbilisi residents and rewarding the work of kindergarten teachers, cleaning and transport staff, art-school teachers, and other employees by paying them enough to bear hardships and poverty that have been exacerbated by inflation.
Eradicating corruption from the Tbilisi government requires political will, and resolving this issue is a precondition for the city's development.
