By ignoring the scientific truth, Armenia increases the threat of
the brain drain, Armenian economist, Head of the Alternative Research
Center Tatoul Manaseryan said during a scientific forum dedicated to
the post-crisis issues in Yerevan.
Manaseryan thinks that the research work of the scientists is not
in demand in Armenia, while China, for instance, has become one of
the leaders of world economy thanks to its skilful use of the human
capital. Following the successful example of China, Armenia would
be able to insure itself against serious losses in the future and to
build a national model of dynamically growing and competitive economy,
he said.
When commenting on the negative aftermath of the possible second
wave of the world crisis, the economist specified that its impact on
Armenia's economy will not be big. "However, this should not comfort
us", he said. Manaseryan believes that by neglecting the scientific
truth, Armenia is currently suffering "invisible" losses, which will
further be reflected in the tangible growth of the migration flow.
The first part of the forum was mostly dedicated to the success of
Chinese reformers, and in the conference hall the experts recalled the
economic authorities' loud failures and several well-known Armenian
economists' best ideas that would have solved the basic problems of the
Armenian economy. However, owing to the prospering official outrage
and impunity in Armenia, the smart ideas of the Armenian professors
are put in practice in foreign countries, which then become the best
examples for Armenia.
To note, the organizer of the two-day scientific forum is the
Alternative Research Center. Both local and foreign economists are
participating in the forum.
