They expressed their discontent to Youth subcommittee of Armenian Presidential public Council on Wednesday. According to young people from abroad, many Armenians from the Diaspora cannot afford travelling to Armenia for participation in various programs due to high ticket prices. They noted that many Armenian citizens themselves prefer to spend their holidays in other countries because it is much more convenient in financial sense than even buying a ticket to Armenia. This question worried especially the young people from Armenian communities of Netherlands and Ukraine. In this regard, the representative of Ukraine said that it is much cheaper to get a ticket to Georgia and find some means of reaching Armenia from there than to buy a Kiev-Yerevan ticket.

Boghos Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 Yes, I was recently in Yerevan and:- my favourite mineral water, Bjni, didn't have enough bubbles- there was a Georgian coke bottle in a trashcan in Hrabarag- Mardiros Saryan is looking too serious in the 20000 drams banknote- the lahmadjun at Sarkis needs 12 grams more meat So, who do I send my complaints to? Mrs. Hakobyan seems to be too busy travelling all over the place... Eleftheria o thanatos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arpa Posted August 11, 2011 Report Share Posted August 11, 2011 (edited) Yes, I was recently in Yerevan and:---Eleftheria o thanatos Btw, that Greek Cliche means "Liberty or death" much reminscent of the one time New Hampshire state slogan "Live free or die" Yes Boghos, you get the spirit of it. Even if you imitate my TIC. That's alright we are "gumba" s after all. They should write to their respective ambassadors like this. http://hyeforum.com/index.php?showtopic=34221&pid=281345&st=0entry281345I had a mind of doing so during my last stay in Yerevan. It was June, some one had turned the thermostat so high, it was over 100 F/40 C every day,and the Apricots, not quite ripe yet tasted like cardboard, even if just like Aleppo it would be breezy nice and cool in the shade.Your carpings reminds me of an anecdote. Tomasch Carper entered the Dominican convent where the rule was silence, only one sentence once every 10 years. First test- Room too small, another 10 years, Food too cold. At the last test- I quit! .The abbot- Good riddance, you have done nothing but complain all these years! PS. You forgot to add that Karlen the barkeeper was diluting the oghi.

This is where it comes fromhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eleftheria_i_thanatos Eleftheria i thanatos (Greek: Ελευθερία ή θάνατος, pronounced [elefθeˈria ˈi ˈθanatos], "freedom or death") is the motto of Greece.[1] It arose during the Greek War of Independence in the 1820s, where it was a war cry for the Greeks who rebelled against Ottoman rule.[2] It was adopted after the Greek War of Independence. It is still in use today, and is a popular theory regarding the use of 9 stripes (for the nine syllables of the motto) in the Greek flag.[3] The motto symbolized and still symbolizes the resolve of the peopleThat New Hampshire thing was just a side note.

It is a pleasure to converse with you, unlike the prevailing chit-chat of- I woke up this morning, I went to the bathroom, and now I am having my cup of "furkush kahveh" type of "conversation". Whatever happened to HyeForum? Why don't we have posts with more than three words? Have we run out of material since The G word became a matter of debate? To set the record straight.
