Friday, 10 April 2009

Greeting those in attendance, the Prime Minister noted that the
government supports this already traditional exposition with a view
to fostering exchange of know-how and advanced technologies-related
information between building companies.

"It is not a secret that construction has been a driving force in
Armenia’s economics and plunging private investment in this area
may seriously affect the economic system, in general, and the GDP
growth, in particular. I would like to take this opportunity to
call your attention to the Operative Staff’s latest initiative on
the granting of government guarantees available to building entities
for large-scale borrowing from trade banks. It is my conviction that
this exposition is a unique opportunity to promote building sector
development in Armenia," the Prime Minister said.

After the opening ceremony, Tigran Sargsyan walked round the stands
to get acquainted with the exhibits displayed by several dozens of
domestic manufacturers.
