What do people do in Armenia, mainly in Yerevan these days?

actually the percentage of people living below the poverty line has fallen significantly to about 43%. Some of the best news ive heard in a while. what troubles me most is the diff between yerevan and the rest of the country. wish there was more dev out of the capital

As mentioned before about the @economical groth within the common people in armenia is not so much to cling to.

Its a few people that get rich, the other people , workers , employes, people who has high posistions or good education get very small salaries. Some of them dont get any saleries at all. That was the case for a scientist who was a very highly respectable scientist who had worked in the institution all her life, she waited two years to get a salery, wich she out of pitty shared with her neighbours who didint get any money from no where, no pension ,nothing.

My parents where there 2 weeks ago and my dad said the country side was getting better: better roads, electricity, more safety, repaired walkways, etc...

I was also said Yerevan was getting more expensive....I don't know if it means much but is it maybe a proof of economical growth among the "comon armenian"?

I don't know..

exacxtly wat my mommy said she also said the electricity didnt go away once

[TJ]

its been like that for a while now, since they started metsamor in 1995 actually. the only problem now is that it is so expensive.

[!EEK]

Yeah, slaves are now 40% more expensive!

Yerevan is getting better or Armenia is getting better? I could care less about Yerevan, that's doing fine.. great, good for all the fat cats.. but 60% of the country lives below the poverty letter. is anything getting better in the villages? Those are the people we should care about.

Probably around 50% of the population lives in Yerevan...Yerevan getting better is a significant factor in the development of the country.

Yea... I went to the water park back in August.

Dude.... SOOO many people there. They have those tubes where you slide in and come out of (kinda like Raging Waters).. but realllllly long ones. It was pretty fun.

BTW.... have any of you gone to the restaurant "Voske Badarakagh" (Golden Fork) in Armenia?

The band that plays over there is freakin nuts!! There music is soooo good. I mean, if you don't want to eat anything but a salad and REALLY have some kef, then that's the place to go. As usual... I was there frequently with the crowd I went with. Kef... almost every other night... haha

Stop making me want to go, I can't afford it until next summer, lol.

this is off topic. But Armenians should drill underground, make atunnel that pops up directly underneath Ararat mt. And turn the whole thing into a giant death dealing robot that walks the lands shooting lasers out of it's eyes and missiles out of it's forearms. That'll show them.
