/PanARMENIAN.Net/ The Ministry of Education has to main goals. These
are to secure the economy sector with highly skilled specialists
and to make education inseparable part of upbringing of generations,
Armenia’s Education Minister Armen Ashotyan said.
Reorganization of the legislative field is one of major tasks,
according to him.
"Our legislation suffer from grave shortcomings and is not in line with
international standard," he said. "Although the government managed
to secure AMD 270 million (out of planned AMD 370 million), further
development of the education system will demand heavier expenses."
The Minister also remarked that Armenians have disinterested attitude
about knowledge. "Curiously enough, many prefer to pay in order not
to study," he said.
