ArmInfo. Rise of gas tariff in Armenia will increase monthly expenses
of a family of 4 people by 2500 drams (nearly $6,5), Hakob Hakobyan,
parliamentarian from the Republican Party of Armenia, Chairman of the
Parliamentary Commission for Social Affairs, told media on Wednesday.

He said the government is currently studying the possible material
assistance to the population to soften the consequences of the rise of
the gas tariff. "The assistance must be rendered only to the families
that actually need it," H. Hakobyan said. Starting April 1 2010, gas
tariff for private consumers will grow from 96 to 132 drams per 1 cu m
(VAT inclusive) .

“I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
