Forum Rules (Everyone Must Read!!!)

1] What you CAN NOT post.

You agree, through your use of this service, that you will not use this forum to post any material which is:
- abusive
- vulgar
- hateful
- harassing
- personal attacks
- obscene

You also may not:
- post images that are too large (max is 500*500px)
- post any copyrighted material unless the copyright is owned by you or cited properly.
- post in UPPER CASE, which is considered yelling
- post messages which insult the Armenians, Armenian culture, traditions, etc
- post racist or other intentionally insensitive material that insults or attacks another culture (including Turks)

The Ankap thread is excluded from the strict rules because that place is more relaxed and you can vent and engage in light insults and humor. Notice it's not a blank ticket, but just a place to vent. If you go into the Ankap thread, you enter at your own risk of being clowned on.
What you PROBABLY SHOULD NOT post...
Do not post information that you will regret putting out in public. This site comes up on Google, is cached, and all of that, so be aware of that as you post. Do not ask the staff to go through and delete things that you regret making available on the web for all to see because we will not do it. Think before you post!


2] Use descriptive subject lines & research your post. This means use the SEARCH.

This reduces the chances of double-posting and it also makes it easier for people to see what they do/don't want to read. Using the search function will identify existing threads on the topic so we do not have multiple threads on the same topic.

3] Keep the focus.

Each forum has a focus on a certain topic. Questions outside the scope of a certain forum will either be moved to the appropriate forum, closed, or simply be deleted. Please post your topic in the most appropriate forum. Users that keep doing this will be warned, then banned.

4] Behave as you would in a public location.

This forum is no different than a public place. Behave yourself and act like a decent human being (i.e. be respectful). If you're unable to do so, you're not welcome here and will be made to leave.

5] Respect the authority of moderators/admins.

Public discussions of moderator/admin actions are not allowed on the forum. It is also prohibited to protest moderator actions in titles, avatars, and signatures. If you don't like something that a moderator did, PM or email the moderator and try your best to resolve the problem or difference in private.

6] Promotion of sites or products is not permitted.

Advertisements are not allowed in this venue. No blatant advertising or solicitations of or for business is prohibited.
This includes, but not limited to, personal resumes and links to products or
services with which the poster is affiliated, whether or not a fee is charged
for the product or service. Spamming, in which a user posts the same message repeatedly, is also prohibited.

7] We retain the right to remove any posts and/or Members for any reason, without prior notice.


- PLEASE READ -

Members are welcome to read posts and though we encourage your active participation in the forum, it is not required. If you do participate by posting, however, we expect that on the whole you contribute something to the forum. This means that the bulk of your posts should not be in "fun" threads (e.g. Ankap, Keep & Kill, This or That, etc.). Further, while occasionally it is appropriate to simply voice your agreement or approval, not all of your posts should be of this variety: "LOL Member213!" "I agree."
If it is evident that a member is simply posting for the sake of posting, they will be removed.


8] These Rules & Guidelines may be amended at any time. (last update September 17, 2009)

If you believe an individual is repeatedly breaking the rules, please report to admin/moderator.

    Exporting is also a key focus in this book. Armenia should not pride itself on things like internal telecommunications or power plant productions unless that company is going to xxxxing build stuff in foreign countries and earn export dollars. We can do it in pharma and agriculture.

      --- exporting key (in this book) ---
      I understand what you are saying and the agreement you express of this book and the exporting point.
      I don't really agree with that.
      The small farms by ** many ** and the govt funding of such points to the profitability of a less efficient move. It's almost contradictory to standard profit model but is highly beneficial to country as a whole.
      The goal of having something to export fits nicely with big business model and new world order.
      My opine is we and world at large need (really need) to look beyond the model presented by IMF and their ilk.
      Wealth expressed as only money or something to export ignores the well being of the vast citizenry. This phony definition of wealth states that only can success be had if you use the standard IMF/cohorts proscribed model (agenda). I disagree.
      If you play with the devil, chances are your gonna get forked.
      We need to look outside that contrived box.
      I'm not saying we shouldn't export stuff. I'm saying it's possible to export without standard profit model to the great benefit of our citizens and the world citizenry.
      Pursue the benefits and not necessarily the dollars expressed as profit. It's the meritous goal to be pursued, not always monetary profit. The monetary system is rife with fraud and misleading in its pursuit.
      Sorry, but everyone wants to be rich. How sad. Every country wants to be rich. How dumb.
      What is success ? How do you define it ? Like trump, USA, IMF, ?
      Leo Tolstoy... How much land does a man need. I think it's only 12 pages long.

        The Georgian Government has given nod to a deal with Gazprom on the terms of gas transit to Armenia, Minister of Energy Kakha Kaladze has declared,xGruzia Onlinexreports.
        The Minister said the parties wouldxshift to partial monetization ofxpayments for the transit of Russian gas to Armenia.
        Kaladze noted that “the changes will not increase Georgia’s dependence on Russia.”
        Previously, Russia paid Georgia for gas transportation by supplying natural gas in the amount of 10% of the transported gas volume, but the agreement expired on December 31.
        “As a result of multi-round talks we managed to reach an optimal proposal with the exiting circumstances taken into account,” Kakha Kaladze told reporters after the government sitting. “The government discussed and decided to sign the deal,” he added.
        The Minister said the rates will be among the highest in Europe.
        Last year Georgia transported 2.1 cubic meters of natural gas through its pipeline from Russian to Armenia, of which 0.3 cubic meters stayed in Georgia.

              ....The report ranks 118 countries according to their ability to grow, attract and retain talent. ....
              It would have been useful to see the breakdown of those qualities.

              Specifically Armenia and see where emphasis could be put to improve things.

              .
              Politics is not about the pursuit of morality nor what's right or wrong
              Its about self interest at personal and national level often at odds with the above.
              Great politicians pursue the National interest and small politicians personal interests

                  EU releases record high assistance to Armenia in 2016


                  YEREVAN, January 24. /ARKA/. Last year was a record year in terms of European Union’s financial assistance to Armenia, the head of EU Delegation to Armenia, Ambassador Peter Switalski, said today.

                  Speaking at a news conference he said the total amount of financial assistance of the EU released to Armenia in 2016 amounted to 62 million euros. For comparison, in 2014 Armenia received 25 million euros from the European Union. He added that the EU is Armenia's number one donor."

                  According to him, the past year was notable also because of intensive political dialogue between Armenia and EU throughout the year, including a visit to Yerevan by Federica Mogherini EU, the EU's high representative for security and foreign policy, in March and an informal ministerial meeting of the Eastern Partnership held in Yerevan. He expressed hope that the cooperation in 2017 will not only continue, but also come to a new level.

                  "The EU will continue to provide assistance to Armenia for improving its business environment, xfighting against corruption, protection of human rights and development of the judicial system", Switalski said. -0--
