ArmInfo. To mellow social tension in Armenia we have to fulfill
obligations on timely payment of salaries, pensions and allowances,
Armenian Prime Minister Tigran Sarkisyan told journalists when replying
to ArmInfo correspondent's question about mellowing of tension
especially after 1 April 2009 when electric power, gas and water
tariffs will grow.
'Taking into account the fact that pension rose by 14% in 2009, one can
expect this will also lead to reduction of social tension', - he said
and added that the government is directing all its efforts to
fulfill the programmes directed to creation of new job places. The
operative headquarters under the Armenian government has already
approved 10 such programmes which will be financed from the state
budget. The second direction, which is considered the best, is
supporting small and medium-sized business, which will lead to creation
of new job places and make it possible for people to stand challenges.
Moreover, public work programme is also being implemented. Additional
funds from the state budget were allocated to fulfill the programme
directed to providing temporarily jobless with public work.
