What is common between the following famous people: Princess Diana (no
need of introduction), Garry Kasparov (Former world chess champion),
Kim Kardashian (Socialite, model, sex-symbol) Andre Agassi (former
world no.1 tennis player), Ivan Aivazovsky (world famous painter),
Charles Aznavour (Singer, Actor), Arthur Abraham (current IBF middle
weight-world boxing champion), Hasmik Papian (world famous opera
singer).
The question seems to be difficult. But the answer is simple. The
common thing among the above celebrities is their roots. They are
all Armenians. It is surprising that Armenian connection is so strong
and work wonders. Perhaps Armenia is the only country whose diaspora
population is more than the resident natives of the country. Armenia
has a resident population of 3 million with a world-wide diaspora
population of around 7 million.
The beautiful God-blessed country of Armenia is located on the
crossroads of Asia and Europe. The region is called Eurasia. The
country is as modern as Europe and as historic as Asian civilization.
It has the best of both worlds. As a result the people of Armenia
are modern as well as very traditional.
Armenian civilization is as old as this world. Armenia is the country
from which life started. The biblical story says that God decided to
flood the Earth after seeing how corrupt it was. He then told Noah
to build an ark and fill it with two of every animal species. After
the flood waters receded, the Bible says, the ark came to rest on a
mountain. Many believe that Mount Ararat, the highest point in the
region, is where the ark and her inhabitants ran aground. The culture
of Armenia encompasses many elements that are based on the geography,
literature, architecture, dance, and music of the people. The culture
is similar to and yet distinct from many of the bordering countries
like Russia, Georgia and Iran as well as Mediterranean nations such
as Greece and Cyprus . Armenian culture has strong influences from
both its Eastern neighbours, as well as an underlying influence from
Europe to the West.
Of late Armenia has emerged as a melting pot for east and west where
students from Asian countries like India, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Iran,
Lebanon and Syria are studying in large numbers because of their
very competitive tuition fee structure. Students from USA, Russia,
Georgia, France, Greece come because of their Armenian connection
and peaceful environment for studies.
Haniya Education based in Dehiwala, Colombo has now made dreams of Sri
Lankan students come true by forging ties with the state university
of Armenia namely Yerevan State Medical University, famously known as
YSMU. The university established in 1920 by the newly formed Soviet
Union is located at the centre of the beautiful capital city Yerevan.
At present there are more than 1300 foreign students studying in
Armenia. The Indian students form a majority of this. Students from
Nepal, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka have also followed their Indian
brethren. The convenient air connection from Dubai and Moscow,
beautiful city coupled with high level of academics make Armenia one
of the best destinations for medical, nursing and engineering studies.
Apart from studies, students get an opportunity to participate in
summer camps, opera events, dance festivals. The enterprising ones
travel to mainland Europe and USA for earning extra bucks during summer
vacations. During winter vacations, the students rush to beautiful
snow clad peaks to try their hand at skiing. The vibrant night life
and open culture helps students un-wind themselves after a hard day
at university classrooms and practical training sessions at various
hospitals of the universities.
After completion of their six year studies in Armenia the students are
armed with their medical degree from one of the best universities for
medical studies in the region. Since, the university is recognized by
World Health Organisation (WHO), among many options are the choice
of taking medical licensing exam of United States government and
moving there.
Haniya Education is making all efforts to promote awareness about
Armenia and Armenian universities in Sri Lanka. They take full
responsibility for admission of Sri Lankan students starting from
documentation, visa-processing and air-ticket to Armenia.
