On August 28 VivaCell-MTS hosted a group of young Diaspora Armenian
volunteers from different countries aged between 20 and 32 years, who
serve as volunteers for an average of 4 months each, and are ready to
apply their professional skills in the regions of our country, the
press service of the company has told ArmInfo. VivaCell- MTS General
Manager Ralph Yirikian presented the volunteers with key aspects of
VivaCell- MTS' operation, the key values guiding the Company, as well
as its strategy in the sphere of corporate responsibility.
VivaCell-MTS pays particular importance and attention to having more
Armenians from the Diaspora discover the Homeland. VivaCell-MTS finds
that the best way to learn about Armenia is not just to see Armenia as
a touristic destination but as a place where one can work as a
professional or just to contribute through volunteering in projects
aimed at helping different target groups of the society. Discovering
Armenia presupposes becoming part of it, feeling the country, getting
experience through communicating with people, getting in touch with
the daily lives of the people, and much more. It is also important to
engage in friendly relationships with peers and create long-lasting
personal and business relationships.
"It is quite positive and promising that you made that step and came
all the way to visit your Homeland. You can now become the ambassadors
of our beautiful Armenia," stated VivaCell- MTS General Manager Ralph
Yirikian, welcoming the volunteers, who arrived from the United
States, the Russian Federation, Syria, Mexico, Lebanon and Canada.
>From 2004 onwards with the support of VivaCell-MTS, the Birthright
Foundation has organized the volunteering of young Armenians from 32
countries in the regions of Armenia. Ralph Yirikian's story of success
was one of the factors triggering the interest among young Armenians
from the Diaspora to visit Armenia and engage in different projects.
"No matter where they are, Armenians all over the world should equally
take the economic development of Armenia as a priority. Who else
should think of the economic development of the country and its
well-being, if not us? All of us need to be committed, consistent, and
hardworking. We simply need to remember: no country in the world is
free from problems. Success comes to those who strive to get result.
We can succeed if we optimistic and rely on the concept of personal
and corporate responsibility toward our country," added Ralph
Yirikian.
The volunteers shared their impressions on Armenia. The meeting with
Ralph Yirikian went in question-answer format covering a wide range of
issues. The discussion during the meeting helped the young people make
a clearer notion of the business administration and management.
