Dear Facebook Armenians, I am back. By the way I will make a business
trip for 8-9 days in a few days.
There is not enough time. A few words about the upcoming plans.
Now I'm working intensively on a legislative initiative, which
consists of 100 steps. A law draft is already ready in which there is
a suggestion to prohibit offshore companies' activity in mining
industry of Armenia. You know that recently these companies' activity
in West have simply the objective to export legally the resources of
the developing. A number of Western countries (USA, France, Italy,
etc.) are still fighting against it. During the meetings G-20 in April
2009 in London and in September in Pittsburg a fair claim was raised
to eliminate offshore.
These are the causes of the crisis. However you see that the offshore
territories are developing. To the traditional Switzerland (this is an
unacceptable bank offshore) Luxembourg, the Czech Republic, Virgin
Islands, Liechtenstein, Andorra, Cayman Islands, Belize, Aruba,
Maldivians, Palau, Iceland, Grenada, Gibraltar etc. Being registered
in offshore and leading activities outside it non-resident companies
have the opportunity to hide taxes and export capital gains from
mother countries: Armenia's mining industry is like this.
If it were a good thing U.S., China (excluding previously registered 1
port offshore), Canada, Brazil, France, Japan, Germany will make that
business. For instance in 2013 RA economy is growing but come and see
that this ungrateful nation sees the growth and ... emigrates.
Moreover such a start of migration we have never had.
What is actually happening?
People are looting the mines day and night, sell their products very
cheap to their offshore counterparts and then from there they are
selling the products with real prices. And such an economic growth
naturally does not help to people, even though they are plundering and
selling people's own properties. In the initial period it is necessary
to prohibit the activities of the offshore companies in mining
industry and later also in finance and other fields.
For instance, opening a bank account in Switzerland should be
criminally punishable. Parallel to all that should be introduced
minimal export prices for mining resources.
There is other good news: your humble servant is going to be taken
into consideration more as an expert in EU's different countries'
forums.
This issue will be discussed in details in the near future.
