    EFFECIENCY OF WORK WITH MASS MEDIA

    YEREVAN, MAY 8, ARMENPRESS: Armenian Prime Minister
    Tigran Sargsian today at the session once again
    referred to the work with the mass media and necessity
    of establishment of dialogue between the press
    services of the ministries and mass media. According
    to the prime minister, often such events are being
    voiced by press which do not correspond to reality.
    The public is waiting for answers which are not
    officially commented. For avoiding it, the press
    services of the all ministries must analyze the
    information spread about them through mass media. It
    is very important that a dialogue be established
    between the media and press services of the
    ministries.
    Armenian prime minister noted that seminars will be
    conducted for journalists and representatives of the
    press services, ?thus the standards by which we must
    deal with media will be established?.
    The prime minister reminded also his assignment
    that hence, the publications in media will be analyzed
    for having real picture of the events. According to
    him, mass media must realize that they are responsible
    for the information they are spreading.
    Speaking about the increase of gas tariffs by gas
    stations widely spread in press, the prime minister
    noted that today 214 gas stations are functioning in
    the market and the owners of a part of them have
    already decreased the prices, but it is necessary to
    study the market to find out the mechanisms of
    formation of prices and understand whether the market
    is competitive or not.
    Tigran Sargsian, referring to the necessity of
    giving explanations to mass media, mentioned also the
    theme of increasing pensions and allowances. According
    to him, the public asks many questions connected with
    it and assigned Armenian labor and social affairs
    minister to explain the issue through mass media.
    Around 50 percent of applications and complaints
    are connected with the illegal construction in
    Yerevan. ?The complaints over the issue are a lot and
    continuative. For its regulation, it is necessary to
    conduct consultation with the participation of
    interested bodies,? he said, adding that it must be
    found out whether administrative reforms must be
    undertaken or legislative changes.
    The prime minister also assigned all the ministers
    to present through mass media the priorities of their
    ministries and clearly define the results they are
    expecting in 2008. It is the position and assignment
    of the Armenian President Serzh Sargsian.
    The ministries have also been assigned to define
    the priorities and expected results for 2008-2012.
    T. Sargsian said that for the implementation of the
    5 pan-Armenian programs included in the government?s
    program 5 commissions have been set up which must
    present to the public the mentioned programs and make
    them subject for public discussion.
