    THE SURROUNDING OF THE GOVERNMENT IS AGAIN OVERCROWDED

    [04:00 pm] 18 May, 2006

    Today the yard of the government became so overcrowded since 10:30
    that there was a need to invite security service workers to keep
    order. The strikers shouted "Prime Minister, resign" for about 4 hours.

    The "guests" of the Prime minister were the inhabitants of Northern
    and Main Avenues, the gardeners of Dalma and religious people who
    refused to take their social cards. Hranush Hakobyan, the Prime
    Minister's councilor, listened to the claims and complaints of the
    religious people whereas the complaints of others were left unanswered.

    "Social cards are not obligatory in any country. We haven't got pension
    and salary for a long time," noted teacher Margaret Hovhannisyan who
    refuses to take her social card because of her religious belief.

    The strikers of Northern and Main Avenues complained that the decision
    of the Constitutional Court gave nothing, the evictions still continue
    by the same article and now it is the turn of the Buzand dwellers.

    When the strikers turned to the office realizing the program of
    greenery of Yerevan, they refused to help them on the ground that
    the implementation of the CC decision will last till October 1.

    By the way, the strikers applied to President Robert Kocharyan on
    May 2 once more. "We wrote to him claiming that he is the guarantee
    of the Constitution.

    Illegality is still obvious in the country, besides, the Government is
    to change its decision. We asked him to have his share in eliminating
    the above mentioned illegality of the Government. We doubt that he is
    aware of everything," informed Vachagan Hakobyan who deals with the
    issues of Northern Avenue. They haven't got the President's reply yet.

    The Residents of Kozern also complained of the Prime Minister. Their
    claim was connected with privatization which was "deliberately"
    postponed and refused.

    "Wherever we go - to the municipality or to the Government, they cheat
    us. We shall take other measures in case our matter doesn't find its
    solution but we won't make them public," they claimed.

    The strikers together with the Dalma gardeners ask to let them
    privatize their lands and give compensation equal to the cadastre
    value. The gardeners maintained that the new owners of their lands are
    high rank officials among which "ArmRusGasArt," "Business" Centre and
    other organizations gave no compensation to the landowners. "They say
    I gave so much money to the mayor that I have nothing to give you,"
    says Hambardzum Khachatryan. "My son serves in the army and is near
    the border. They came and destroyed my garden by saying "Why does he
    serve, are we guilty of it?"

    By the way, the strikers urge that the whole territory of Dalma has
    turned into a rubbish-heap with concrete waste, food remains etc.
