YEREVAN, JUNE 9, ARMENPRESS: On the occasion of Republic Day president
Kocharian conferred today Armenian medals, orders and other decorations
on a group of police and national security officers, prosecutors,
employees of local self-management bodies and health and education
communities.
President Kocharian was quoted by his press office as saying that
it is a good tradition to confer national decorations on people
from different branches for their merits on the occasion of national
holidays. He said: "You too have earned this distinction by your hard
work. This means that the progress of our country is contingent on
every of us and a breakthrough is possible only given a harmonized
cooperation between all branches."
Kocharian said their appearance on the list was an evidence of their
good name and high professionalism that cannot be earned in one day
and without hard and enduring work.
Kocharian also said that a simple comparison of crime rates in Armenia
and other developed countries, or in countries with the same level of
living standards is enough to commend Armenian police and appreciate
its work. Kocharian said the difference is significant, an evidence
of good work of the police.
"It is at this moment that we have to be more optimistic about our own
forces, we have to believe that hard work and initiative help surmount
all obstacles," the president said. The recipients of the awards in
turn thanked the president for his warm attitude and conferring state
orders on them, adding it was a boost to their further activity.
