Prime Minister’s Awards to Power Engineers
On completion of Iran-Armenia gas pipeline construction and on power engineers’ professional holiday, a number of Armenian power engineers have been presented with the premier’s commemorative medals and letters of appreciation. During a ceremonious event, Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan handed in the awards.
Speaking about the reform and the accomplishments of the energy sector, the head of government stated in part: “This event has brought together outstanding personalities with important contribution to the energy sector. The system faces highly challenging tasks: firstly, the construction of a new nuclear reactor which has economic and political dimensions and is supposed to change the situation drastically; secondly, the thermal power plant project which is nearing completion and, finally, the other major projects.”
Highly appreciative of the efforts made by Armenian power engineers, the Prime Minister assured of his government’s readiness to back any energy-related project. He wished them all the best in the New Year and expressed hope that the year 2010 will be blessed with sustained development and every success.
