    SHUSHI AND EFFORTS OF ALL ARMENIANS

    On April 30 the mayor of Shushi was elected. The former mayor Felix
    Hakobyan was reelected. The NKR Central Election Committee reported
    that 1148 out of the 2181 voters turned up, and the former mayor
    received 887 votes.

    On May 9 the 14th anniversary of liberation of Shushi will be
    celebrated. The town is not reconstructed yet. Moreover, by official
    data the number of the population is dropping. The authorities say
    the city is too badly ruined, and the efforts of the Armenians all
    over the world are needed. Two ways of involving the efforts of the
    Armenians all over the world were suggested: to hold a telethon of
    donations for Shushi or to proclaim Shushi a free economic area,
    anticipating investments of Armenians all over the world.

    After the North-South Highway the next telethon was expected to be
    held for Shushi. However, last year the telethon was held for the
    region of Martakert, and this year the donations will be for the
    region of Hadrut, says Armo Tsatryan, the NKR minister of territorial
    management and development of infrastructures.

    For the free economic area, the minister says a government commission
    has been set up to work out a plan of turning Shushi a center
    of education and culture. The ministries were instructed to work
    out separate programs, involving the program of the free economic
    area. Armo Tsatryan said the commission will discuss the programs
    after the May holidays.
