    with optimism

    The National Competitiveness Foundation of Armenia (NCFA) organized a
    contest to choose a name for the longest ropeway leading to Tatev
    monastery, as part of implementation of the project on reconstruction
    of Tatev monastery complex. Residents of Halidzor and Tatev villages
    (Syunik region) wrote essays to present their vision of how the
    ropeway will change their lives.

    There was no age limit for the contest participants, thus, both school
    students and their teachers participated in it. The contest winner,
    who offered Eagle Wings name, received a computer.

    The contest basically aimed to involve residents of the villages in
    the program of tourism development in the region, Press Secretary of
    the NCFA Zara Amatuni told journalists.

    Head of Halidzor administration Samvel Asryan noted that the ropeway
    construction will create new jobs in the village. `Many residents of
    the village have migrated since the Soviet times to earn money.
    Meanwhile, the problem of employment will be solved now. We treat the
    project with optimism,' concluded Asryan.
