ancestral homeland

YEREVAN. - Syrian businessman, owner of solar water heater factory
Shahen Cherkezian refused to move his business to Armenia, his partner
said.
Suren Grigoryan, who is program's partner from Armenia, said the
equipment was transported from Syria's Homs to Lebanon. Cherkezian
wanted to transport it to Armenia and provide jobs for 200 people who
used to work with him in Syria.
`Prior to setting up a company, the businessman decided to learn more
about tax and customs services to find out whether it is easy to start
a business for Diaspora Armenians. Making all calculations, he gave up
the idea. It's a pity, because the project would help create new jobs,
including those for Syrian Armenians,' Grigoryan told Armenian
News-NEWS.am.
Cherkezian plans to resume production of solar water heaters either in
neighboring Georgia or Lebanon.
