Issues about small and medium business were discussed during the
meeting of Robert Kocharyan and a number of representatives of
the field. The Ministers of Agriculture and Commerce and Economic
Development were also present at the meeting.
Robert Kocharyan mentioned that small and medium business is developing
actively. "There are few people in Armenia who do not want to have
their own business.
This means a powerful inner striving for being the master of their
own fate which can be a serious impetus for the development of small
and medium business. We appreciate that", Kocharyan said.
The participants of the meeting mentioned that there are problems
hindering the development of the field.
They particularly mentioned about the necessity to reduce the
frequency of check-ups, to support the businessmen of the marzes with
consultants, to prepare specialists with professional education and
to eliminate a number of legislative shortcomings.
The issues about leasing service and loans were also discussed. As
for the change of the currency exchange rate, Robert Kocharyan said
that it is the problem of the whole world and not only Armenia.
Robert Kocharyan said that the problems will be discussed during
special consultations.
