On September 3, after a joint working meeting at the NKR Government,
the RA delegation led by Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan, accompanied by
NKR Prime Minister Ara Harutyunian and Vice-Premier Arthur Aghabekian,
visitedMetaxcombinat (Silk Factory) Ltd. comprising a few different
companies.
Though the construction works are still underway, some workshops are
already operating, involving about 120 people.
On launching the entire factory, about 700 people will be provided
with job.
The RA Prime Minister stressed the importance of such enterprises
in Artsakh, noting that in case of the factory's full operation
sufficient prerequisites would be created for the development of
light industry in the republic. The company comprises textile,
garment, carpet, and wool processing workshops. It was noted that
the operation of similar enterprises created opportunities for the
local raw material's realization.
Currently, workshops supplied with modern equipment for carpet
designing, thread producing, dyeing, and further processes are
operating at the silk factory. A wool processing workshop is already
under operation. Adoption of local raw material has also started.
According to the officials, though the workshops have operated for
a few months, they have already impacted the republic's economic
indexes. The majority of the workers get averagely 75.000 AMD. Along
with the increase of the production volumes, the number of carpet
weaving masters will also increase.
After visiting the factory, the RA Prime Minister answered journalists'
questions, summarizing the visit to the NKR. Evaluating the visit
as very fruitful, Tigran Sargsyan noted that the RA Government
delegation had a chance to familiarize with the works conducted in
different economic spheres of Artsakh. "We have got acquainted with new
programs, which are implemented in different spheres of the economy
of Artsakh. Today, we have familiarized with a program in the light
industry sphere, which suggests formation of a full industrial cycle,
resolving also the issue of local raw material's realization closely
related to animal husbandry. Armenia's companies are participating
in the implementation of this program.
Works on putting new machine-tools into operation and creating new jobs
are underway. This is very important, as light industry provides,
first of all, employment of women", he noted. Tigran Sargsyan
also touched upon the projects implemented in the agricultural
and construction spheres, separating sunflower oil production,
which demands a great volume of raw material, which, in turn, will
contribute to making new investments in this field for increasing the
production capacity. The RA Prime Minister expressed his confidence
that the future strengthening of the enterprise would allow to meet
the demands of both Artsakh and Armenia in high-quality sunflower
oil and would reduce the volume of its import.
The delegation familiarized also with the army-building programs
endorsed by the Government. The RA Prime Minister appreciated the NKR
defense sphere. He also stressed the progress in the urban development
and tourism spheres. "These days, we have also discussed different
social programs. Our offices have established fruitful bilateral
cooperation and relationship. Discussions took place around all
the programs; corresponding cooperation agreements were signed;
the issue of technical support was also raised in order that the
NKR corresponding institutions are ready for introducing a pension
accumulation system from the next year January", noted Tigran Sargsyan.
