    A three day (March 28-30) conference took place in the Berdzor
    district centre of the Nagorno-Karabakh Republic Kashatagh region,
    which was devoted to the development of the region. "This conference,
    which is devoted to the development of the Kashatagh region, is the
    first sui generis, and I hope that it will become a basis for holding
    similar events in the future.

    It will promote effective solution to the problems existing in the
    region, as well as realization of programs aimed at its further
    development", NKR President Bako Sahakian said in his speech made at
    the opening of the conference. Meanwhile, he noted that the "Kashatagh
    region is a unit of strategic significance for the Armenian nation".
    "It is no coincidence that within nearly 70 years our enemy turned
    this territory into a wedge between Armenia and Artsakh. The region's
    role has deeply changed since May of 1992, and the narrow section
    liberated in that period became a real "lifeline" for the people
    of Artsakh. Realizing both political and economic significance
    of Kashatagh and all the responsibility for its future we have to
    undertake the region's development, create stable and competitive
    economy, increase the level of the people's welfare, and improve the
    people's living conditions. It is today's imperative required by the
    interests of our national security", Bako Sahakian said. The head
    of the Karabakhi state also mentioned that "the existence of strong,
    developed and populated Kashatagh will create stable background for
    reinforcement of positions not only in the negotiation process on
    the Nagorno Karabakh conflict settlement, but also on the front line
    making it more protected and secure". "This year and in the following
    years the amount of means assigned for the region's development will
    considerably increase. The budget of the Kashatagh region in 2008
    is 3,7 billion drams, which exceeds the previous year's index by 40%
    per cent. 1 billion drams is provided for capital construction, 400
    million drams is provided for the sphere of capital investment. These
    tendencies of proportional development will be maintained in the future
    as well", Bako Sahakian noted. Meanwhile, the president informed
    that together with the economic development of the region reforms,
    aimed at improvement of the population's social condition, were
    also provided. Representatives of 40 organizations of the Armenian
    Diaspora and independent entrepreneurs and benefactors participated in
    the work of the conference in Berdzor. Various programs which are to
    stimulate the complex development of the region, secure stable economic
    growth, solve education and health care problems, improve demographic
    situation etc. were presented during the conference. The attendees
    visited the region's villages and familiarized themselves with the
    situation in site.
