On September 1 Karabakh Telecom dedicated another two playgrounds for
children. The first ceremony took place in Stepanakert at Arakelyan
Street.
Mayor Edward Aghabekyan was also present. According to the mayor,
Karabakh Telecom was one of the first companies which responded to the
Happy Children initiative of Stepanakert Foundation. The playground
was financed by Karabakh Telecom, the City Hall and the NKR Union of
Azatamartiks. "We built a playground for children hand in hand. I
hope we will continue to build our fatherland hand in hand," said
the CEO of Karabakh Telecom Ralph Yirikian.
The second playground was opened in Martuni. It was financed by
Karabakh Telecom.
Before the ceremony Ralph Yirikian visited the memorial to the killed
soldiers in Martuni co-financed by Karabakh Telecom.
Rudik Azaryan, governor or Martuni, and a number of inhabitants of
Martuni were present at the ceremony. Rudik Azaryan said about 500
children can play on the playground. For his part, Ralf Yirikian
congratulated on the new playground and the 16th anniversary of the
independence of NKR and confessed: "At one time I dreamt of feeling
to be an Armenian."
"Now I really feel that I live in the native country, for which I
work and where my children grow up," Ralph Yirikian said.
He said more playgrounds will be built. By the way, this year Karabakh
Telecom has built three playgrounds in Stepanakert and one in Berdzor,
Askeran and Martakert each. Another playground in Stepanakert and
one in Hadrut are under construction.
