The objective of the contest is to establish the anti-corruption public awareness and intolerance to corrupt behaviour among young people, the "161.ru" reports.
"Unfortunately, our society is tolerant to corruption; numerous polls are the evidence. All are against corruption, but deep in souls, people consider it to be normal. We are confident that administrative measures alone are not enough, active involvement of the society is a must," said Sergey Chuev, Chairman of the Committee on Youth Politics of the Administration of the Rostov Region, as quoted by the RIA "Novosti".
