    MAIN GOAL OF WORLD ARMENIAN CONGRESS IS ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND PROSPERITY OF ARMENIA

    Noyan Tapan
    May 16 2006

    YEREVAN, MAY 16, NOYAN TAPAN. The main goal of the World Armenian
    Congress is economic development and prosperity of Armenia. World
    Armenian Congress President Ara Abrahamian declared this at the
    sitting of WAC Board held on May 16 in Yerevan. At the sitting they
    gave account on the work done by WAC over three years since the
    day of the organization's constituent congress. "Issues of economic
    development, which means creation of new jobs, increasing the incomes
    of the population, growth of its prosperity, have always been in
    the center of attention of WAC," A.Abrahamian mentioned. According
    to him, creation of new jobs will give an opportunity to return to
    the homeland to Armenians who have left for foreign countries to
    earn money. In his opinion, unless this is done within the coming 10
    years, later the issue of return of the Armenians will become more
    complicated due to change of the ethnic consciousness of the growing
    generation. Another important task of WAC is creation of an effective
    mechanism of investments, consolidation of economic and political
    resources of the Armenians spread all over the world. A.Abrahamian
    regretted to say that only a limited circle of Diasporan Armenians
    takes part in assistance to economic development of Armenia. "Remember
    the words of Catholicos Vagzen I that for Armenia it is more important
    that one million Armenians invest 1 dollar each than 1 person invest
    one million dollars," WAC President said.

    A.Abrahamian informed about the active work of WAC aimed at development
    of bilateral economic relations with a number of countries and first
    of all with Russia. At the same time, according to him, development
    of democratic processes is imperfect yet and there are no necessary
    conditions for entrepreneurial activity in Armenia. It was mentioned
    that the Armenian authorities provide insufficient assistance to
    the activity of WAC. A.Abrahamian expressed hope for more active
    assistance of the Armenian authorities.
