YEREVAN. - The Armenian capital city Yerevan public transport will
become even more profitable for the private sector, said `Informed and
Protected Consumer' NGO Chairman Babken Pipoyan, during a press
conference on Saturday.
He added that the state did not present any strong arguments to the
people as to why the natural gas price and the public transport fare
have increased by such disproportionate amount.
`The price of gas at the border does not depend on us. But it is clear
for everyone that the transport fare is a very appealing business. But
the public transport is unable to solve the problem of passenger flow,
unless new bunches of buses are imported to Yerevan,' Pipoyan stated.
In his view, the government should manage the public transport issue.
`It would be better if this profit goes to the state budget and
amounts are allocated from it to take care of our needs,' Babken
Pipoyan maintained.
