    KHACHATUR SUKIASYAN: "LIFE BECOMES MORE EXPENSIVE AGAIN."

    Businessman, former MP Khachatur Sukiasyan posted a record on his
    Facebook page, where he shared his opinion in relation to the rise
    in price of gas, electric, range of goods and services.

    "The price of gas imported to Armenia, as well as the price of
    electricity has significantly risen again. Of course, prices of number
    of goods and services will rise (have already increased), in a word,
    as they say, "life becomes more expensive again." I note only that
    the government should not let the company "ArmRusgasprom" which has
    the monopoly in the market, enriches at the expense of people.

    I want to draw your attention to another global problem, which,
    unfortunately, is almost not reminded. In Armenia, there are no natural
    gas and oil reserves, and of our discontent rising of electricity
    prices there will not be these stocks. Yes, citizens should demand
    government's intervention in the settlement of the energy prices.

    But we must bear in mind that energy prices in the international
    market have a tendency to increase. So a strategic goal has become
    for Armania to develop and implement a strategic program in this area.

    Efficient use of energy resources, energy resources, reduction of
    heat loss, introduction of energy conservation, alternative energy
    sources must become an imperative coming years.

    In the name of truth it must be said that Armenia has already conducted
    some work in this area, has adopted a law on power management. But this
    is not enough. Often ack of funds is given as a justification for the
    problem. However, a properly thought-out price and tariff policy in
    this area can provide a large influx of private investment. Investments
    can be carried out both in the industrial and community sectors.

    Look, for example, how quickly the structure of small hydroelectric
    power stations are realized in Armenia, because investors got clear
    and state guarantee, approved by the law. Do not forget that the
    country still remains advanced engineering and resources that need
    to be engaged in the implementation of the program.

    It is necessary to attract the active cooperation of banks and leasing
    companies. However, banks do not have much experience in investing
    in electrosavings, in risk calculations in this case, but with the
    support of national and international institutions, these issues
    will be solved step by step. The only important thing to realize
    clearly that the growth and welfare of the citizens of the country
    can only be achieved by energy efficiency and the introduction of
    energy saving technologies. So the energy efficiency of the economy
    should be a priority of Armenia's economic strategy," says the record.
