country's president, who is also chairman of the State University's

square meter is 170,000 drams, although according to experts, the
market price is 350,000 Drams.

selected through casting a lot and if there are vacant apartments they
will be sold to those in the list. This block will be accomplished
in two years and a new one may be launched in 12-18 months.
