The RA Government has spent around 2bn AMD on Toyota cars. According
to some information, the real owner of the Toyota Yerevan Company is
Sedrak Kocharyan, son of Armenia's second president Robert Kocharyan,
though the company is officially the property of Samvel Mairapetyan,
Robert Kocharyan's companion.
The Gyumri-based Asparez club reported that the RA government spent
a total of 2.659bn AMD on cars last year, with 1,931.710m AMD (72.6%)
spent on 241 Toyota cars.
In 2007, the RA Government spent around 1bn AMD on Toyota cars - 56.6%
of the funds intended for this purpose. Most of the cars were purchased
for the RA Police (200 cars), RA Presidential Administration and RA NA
Administration. A number of other government agencies ordered Toyota
cars as well. The government purchased cars worth a total of 230m AMD
from the company owned by Karen Shahmuradyan - 8.8% of the funds. Over
20% of the funds were spent on cars purchased from other companies.
The RA Prosecutor General's Office "remains faithful" to its taste.
Just as last year, it has purchased only Volkswagen cars from the
Eurowagen Company. Evil tongues claim RA Prosecutor General is co-owner
of the company.
