On June 29 the NKR presidential candidate visited the villages of
Kichan, Chldran, Poghosagomer, Drmbon, Kochoghut, Harutiunagomer and
Vaghuhas, Martakert region. During the meetings issues were raised
which worry everyone in Karabakh.
The villages which Masis Mayilyan visited had been occupied during the
war and when they were liberated, people found only destroyed houses
and traces of fires. Therefore, many asked when the government will
finally keep its promise and reconstruct their houses. The roads are
in a poor state, there is no telephone everywhere.
Amazingly, however, these people living far from the world have enough
information about the political process. In many places they asked the
candidate if problems may occur with the National Assembly in case
he is elected. How is Masis Mayilyan going to collaborate with the
parliament which endorsed the other candidate? "If people elect me,
and controversies occur, it will mean the National Assembly ignores
the choice of people," Masis Mayilyan said.
The voters also asked who supports Masis Mayilyan. "My supporters
are people who want reforms, who want the rule of law. There are such
people in the government and in the parties which endorsed the other
candidate. These people cannot be beside me now but they will vote
for my program," Masis Mayilyan said.
In some villages people offered to hold TV debates between the two main
candidates. Masis Mayilyan said he is ready to debate on any issue.
There were different wishes and proposals: opening a restaurant,
appointing days of reception for common people, coordination of prices
of vegetables, especially in spring. Someone wished life in Karabakh
were like say in Singapore.
