NO DEAR FRIENDS, WE ARE NOT ON A DOWNHILL SLOPE TO DOOMSDAY

However hard the supporters of Antranik Ashdjian try to paint a
gruesome picture of our community and however hard they shout from
Cyprus TV channels that the community is divided and we are on a
downhill slope to doomsday, our community knows better.
However hard they try to explain their unholy alliance and justify
their candidature, some simple facts remain unchanged, that: - Nareg
school is on a steady move forward.
- the cultural life has never been more vibrant.
- we have never had so many printed and online media outlets and so
much freedom of news, opinions and information.
- thanks to the efforts of our MP, our status as a community has
never been stronger.
- the political contacts with MPs of Cyprus and Euro parliamentarians
for the promotion of Hay Tad has never been smoother.
- unity and dialogue between Armenian Cypriot political parties has
been elevated with important Hay Tad agendas like Hrant Dink, Voch
campaign, April 24, being addressed and commemorated together.
- functions in community life have multiplied.
- Armenian youth and families have increasingly flocked Armenian
centers and clubs.
- Armenian sports teams have multiplied and have come to important
achievements.
- our image as a community to the citizens we live with has never
been so positive and bright.
- countless problems in our community have been resolved.
- the multidimensional list of progress is long ... much too long.
Apparently some people in our community will even interpret the
decades-long selfless and voluntary work of our community that have
achieved wonders in our small community, as dark as their own dark
agendas.
Let the voters decide whether we are on the right path and whether
we need to stop this process of change that did not begin yesterday,
but decades earlier.
This is the central question before voters this Sunday.
