Journalist, Berdia Kalandia:
“Horrifying reality – how do children in Georgia (Tsalenjikha) try to save their families from starvation?!
All the “Kotsi” of Georgia are proud of themselves – “There is an economic boom in Georgia and poverty has been overcome”, but, as we can see, the “Kotsi” believe their own lies. They believe because they don’t eat caviar and asatrin khinkal themselves and… have you heard that gluttons thought all gluttons were gluttons. However, in reality, our people live in extreme poverty, which, if nothing else, is evidenced by one horrifying fact that happened in Tsalenjikha:
For several months, on the initiative of the mayor of Tsalenjikha, Gia Kharchilava, the free food program for students has been working in schools, which means that schoolchildren are given special cards with which they can buy any product in any store with the money in their account.
“Timer” was informed about the heart-wrenching story – the school student, using the above-mentioned card, bought basic consumer products: pasta, sugar, salt, butter, fish, flour and washing powder in the store. Asking the seller, “Do you have this card for food and why don’t you buy sweets?” The child is in tears and says, “Mom doesn’t have money and won’t we be hungry at home?”
You heard that people are starving, and in this case, a child from Tsalenjikhel saved the family from starvation, even for one day!
Well, “Kots” are proud of themselves, “Here, we have started the reform of education and, accordingly, the school”. The reform is good, but “Kotses”, well, think about it, will a hungry child be able to study?!
Yes, think about it, eat caviar, asatrina khinkali and think, think about the hungry children!”
