The head of the Consumers Association, an Armenian NGO engaged in
protecting consumer rights, told a news conference today that people
should stage protest demonstrations against the recent subway fare
hike.
Armen Poghosyan said, however, that based on his experience Armenians
are not generally ready to take such moves.
“We all complain – righteously – but we complain only before our
friends and family.” He added that a demonstration with 7,000-10,000
participants would make a difference.
