The mayor of Yerevan should personally tackle the problems of ordinary
citizens. It is necessary to change the philosophy of municipal
governance, Vartan Oskanian, MP from the Prosperous Armenia Party,
candidate for mayor of Yerevan, said at today's press conference.
He said that the goals of ordinary residents of Yerevan differ from
those of the city authorities. "During our numerous meeting with the
residents of Yerevan, I have repeatedly seen how simple and at the
same time how acute their problems are. They are simple because they
can be solved in no time by means of the funds of the Municipality;
and they are acute because they have been unresolved for many years.
The mayor should be aware of all the affairs concerning the capital",
said Oskanian. He pointed out that, if elected, he is going to attract
foreign investments and grants for development of Yerevan's economy,
using all the foreign contacts he established when he was the foreign
minister of Armenia.
Oskanian believes that one of such important goals is to improve the
living conditions of the simple residents of Yerevan. "The mayor of
Yerevan should organize an open day for the residents once a week at
least to listen to them and give a solution to their urgent problems.
The mayor should take public transport at least twice or thrice a
week to see what is going on in the transport sphere", he stressed.
