Dear employees of the HAEK CJSC,

I heartily congratulate all of us on the occasion of the twenty-ninth anniversary of independence of our home country, the Republic of Armenia.

On 21 September, 1991 the declaration of independence of the Republic of Armenia was the fulfillment of the dream of the whole Armenian nation. The Armenians showed the whole world that they were ready to protect every inch of their native land consecrated by blood of their sons.

With attainment of independence the Armenian nation demonstrated its centuries-old aspiration to live freely, manage their own destiny and create peacefully. Over a historically short period our country in all spheres of life has implemented unprecedented large-scale reforms having taken its rightful place in the big universal family. We continue to be strongly committed to implementing consistent steps aimed at strengthening and development of our Home country, ensuring welfare of our people.

I am sure that together as a nation we will achieve these lofty goals relying on the unity of all the parts of our people, its rich traditions and firm faith. Dear employees,

Once again I congratulate all of us on the occasion of this sacred holiday - Independence Day, I wish good health, peaceful, creative life and a steadfast faith in future.
