NO INCREASE IN TARIFFS
Support A1+!Will water, gas or electricity tariffs increase? The question bothers nearly every Armenian.
“Food prices have increased. They say tariffs for electricity, gas, water and other services are to increase too. Salaries do not rise but expenses do”, complains 45 year-old Yeranuhi. 71 year-old Alvard notices: “My pension is only 21.000 drams. How can I cover all my expenses with it? Shouldn’t I drink water or put on a light?” Press Secretary of the Public Services Regulatory Commission (PSRC) Mariam Stepanian informs “A1+” there is going to be no increase in public services till the end of 2008, i.e. people are going to pay the same fixed tariffs for gas, water, electricity and other services.
By the way, “Gasprom” informs that from January 1 the gas tariff will rise by 55 USD.
