VAHAN HOVHANNISYAN VISITS VILLAGES

Regions

The presidential candidate Vahan Hovhannisyan continued his campaign today in the region of Shirak. He met the residents of Ashotsk, Amasia and Marmashen. In Ashotsk Vahan Hovhannisyan was received in the House of Culture. Mr Hovhannisyan began his speech saying that yesterday 25 heads of communities and 40 enterprisers ensured that they would support his candidature during the presidential elections.

Reflecting on the issues bothering the local residents, the ARF candidate prioritized the necessity of decreasing taxes on lands, noting that lands in the Ashotsk region were not productive. Gasification is a vital problem in the village. The candidate pointed out that in the result of social unfavorable conditions, many residents leave the village. People leave for towns, where the living conciliations are better. Thus, he proposes to contribute to the development of the regions by making investments in these areas.

“Yerevan may develop proportionally, when the regions develop, while Yerevan is blown and this is not normal”, he said. Residents of Marmashen also prefer Vahan Hovhannisyan’s candidature. Young people here consider that what this candidate says and proposes in his program is real. Adults in Marmashen also consider that Vahan Hovhannisyan is a reliable candidate. Amasia residents pointed out the necessity of a hospital during the meeting with the candidate. The only hospital was closed in October 2007. Children are born at homes, sick people are taken to hospitals in Ghukasyan or Gyumri.

After the visit to villages, in the second part of the day a gathering took place in Gyumri theatrical square. “If you give your votes to me, you will have an unrecognizable country in a year”, declared Vahan Hovhannisyan.
