Thankyou for the discussion you had . I’ll be visiting Armenia in the next couple of weeks from Australia and hope to see the positive and negative aspects you discussed
Эрик, спасибо за труд, за правильную оценку событий. С нетерпением жду каждый ваш эфир. Вы замечательный журналист- аналитик. Успехов в работе и крепкого вам здоровья! Очень интересная беседа! 💕🇦🇲
I’m so jealous. Sitting here in a San Francisco office slogging away while I listen to you gentlemen celebrate the good life on beautiful lake Sevan! Cheers.
Having such a diaspora is our treasure, because together as Armenians from all over the world we can bring best practices from the West, Russia and Arabic world to our country to build our homeland together. Much love to the civilnet for your videos ❤
Thank you guys for posting this video. I think we can use more of this as it shapes the incorrect view outside of Armenia, and also inside of Armenia. Cheers.
Is there still hope for Armenian population to grow despite the fact of migration? My dream is for Armenia to be able to populate the country like the Netherlands almost 20 million.
20 million? Thats not even physically possible because of the size of the country. Belgium is the best comparison in size of country and theyve managed 11 million. It will take another 100-150 years for Armenia’s population to reach even 10 million and with the neighbors we have, highly doubt that even happens (they wont let armenia develop that much).
Thank you folks. I love your positive attitude. I reside in Los Angeles. About 54 years now. Unfortunately we have the same problems in USA. Armenians, find various different reasons to feel superior to the the other group of Armenians. Time will heal everything. Average people will change, once the bolshevik residue diminishes . Let's be tolerant to each other. Thank you again. All the best.
About time someone thought of clearing up this misunderstanding and shedding some light on the reality vs the myth. Thank you to Patrick for doing this program.
How about retiring in Armenia. I am in my late 50's and my husband is 61. We are going to retire in Italy where my husband is from. We have been living in Canada since the 80's. I am Lebanese/Armenian/Canadian and lived in Armenia for 3 years in the 80's then moved to Canada. Would Armenia be a better option for us? My husband loves Armenian culture, and this topic making me think twice about moving to Italy.
In some future episode, I'd like to know more about the influx of people and assets to Armenia due to the war in Ukraine, whether it continues affecting our economy in a positive way, if it was permanent or just a temporary thing, (i.e. most people used Armenia to move on to third party countries) and most importantly, whether there are tangible results, if any. Thank you and thank you for such an amazing program

I just spent a month in Armenia, and I can say that Human Factors Engineering is something that is lacking. They are so focused on core tech that they miss what makes a product great in the market. Great tech skills will get investments and work for those companies that invest in Armenia. However, having the aptitude to make our own tech products that can sell competitively in the US and EU is a long way off and needs Human Factors Engineering.
Eric, everybody loves their dog, during hard times,a dog groomer still makes a living wage, if one is talented,during good economic times,they become rich,you don't have a pet grooming industry in Armenian, no one's going to pay you $60 to sheer one sheep but, full-size French poodle at least 60 bucks😊. Small country,Small industry but, 🛁+✂️+🐕=💶💰💵🇦🇲 P.s. just a bath will draw you 10 to 15 Euro in your economy, not to shabby, call any pet groomer on Manhattan and ask her how much it is to only wash/bath a Chihuahua.
You are beating about the bush. Armenia is a stray culture looking for itself everywhere, yet finds others. The best evidence thereto is the presentday situation of this far-fetched statehood composed of predominantly enlarged kinship organization. It cannot have anything in common with a Christianity-prone sovereign state. In fact, provincialism has heavily scourged the armenian image bringing it down to the very threshold of discontinuation. That's the name of the game.
Great conversation but why taking care of the animals is the higher thing in life? There is not a single footage of Yerevan where there is no stray dog. How it is possible that in the civilised country dogs are running around on the streets?! Why in Yerevan there is only one single animal shelter?! And not even to keep the dogs but just to vaccinate them and release them back on the street! Your own program showed that there are no certified vets in Armenia! This is exactly the kind of businesses that should be opening in Armenia! Gandhi said: you judge the society by the way they treat the animals. As of now the Armenian society is not getting any high points!
in Gandhi's country lots of people as well as animals have no shelters, so what he said is BS...please pick some other countries for the sake of God...
@@UserUnkown-do1jifor what sake? I didn’t pick the country, I am referring to a person! A person with well known name and of a great wisdom in the sharp contrast to you, a person with no name and not known significance. So I will refrain from listening to the advice of a person with zero credentials
@@Trigathus Because the wealth, contacts and know-how is its ONLY natural resource. Something nobody in that region has - not even Russians have that! If you get 1 million diasporan Armenians moving to Armenia with their foreign wealth, it will transform the country. Diasporan Armenians also have other citizenships which requires these foreign countries to protect their citizens. Think about it.
