Stepanakert, October 27. / ARKA /. One of the Karabakh couples who took part in the Artsakh Big Wedding on October 16, 2008, in connection with the anniversary of Ameriabank won a two-week vacation in Egypt.
As the correspondent of ARKA News Agency from Stepanakert reported, in 2008 Ameriabank offered couples to become investors of the bank. Only 250 couples responded to the offer out of the seven hundred.
During the year, many of them refused to participate and on the eve of the draw only eight couples were left.
Following the drawing of lots married couple Gayane Balayan and Smbat Markaryan won the trip to Egypt.
Ameriabank will continue to provide assistance to young couples.
In Armenia, the bank has a number of functions, which it also intends to apply in Artsakh. –0-
