    YEREVAN, MAY 21, NOYAN TAPAN. "The society is concerned about how
    realistic the Armenian government's programs are and how these programs
    will be implemented. I think that in terms of calculation of resources,
    the goals of the programs are realistic but they will be accessible
    in case of participatory cooperation of the Armenian government and
    the participants in these programs, various sections of the society,
    which in its turn will contribute to an increase of resources for
    the programs' implementation," the RA minister of economy Nerses
    Yeritsian said on May 21 when presenting, at the invitation of
    the Club of Economic Journalists, the economic provisions of the
    2008-2012 RA government program which was recently approved by the
    National Assembly.

    In his words, international experience also shows that a participatory
    process is more efficient in case of implementation of ambitious
    projects.

    "People should realize how the changes will affect them," the minister
    said, adding that the ministry of economy should play a serious role
    in at least two of the 5 national projects subject to implementation
    - the project of the Business Environment Superiority Center and the
    tourism development project.

    According to the speaker, in 2008 the ministry of economy will
    formulate the conceptual approaches to solution of the RA government
    program's issues related to the ministry, indicating the results and
    the extent of their influence on the society. The matter concerns
    innovation policy, support for small and medium business, copyright
    and consumer rights protection, and industrial policy. N. Yeritsian
    said that in 2008 "the ministry will try to form the frame of the
    economic policy, especially microeconomic policy". The costs of
    various national economic programs will be calculated and they will
    be compared with other programs in order to decide the sequence of
    their implementation. This work will be combined with reforms of the
    ministry's governance system. "They should be linked to annual programs
    of the ministry and its strategy which is now being developed,"
    N. Yeritsian said.

    He added that one of the goals of improving the business environment
    in Armenia is to transfer businessman-state relations to the electronic
    sphere.

    It is envisaged developing a major program on creation of
    infrastructures of the innovation economy, as well as one or two
    respective action plans. One of them will be related to Gyumri
    technopark, another - to formation of the health center of oncology
    and radiology.
