Poll Finds 39% of Armenians Wish to Leave Armenia Permanently
By: Nanore Barsoumian

YEREVAN (A.W.)–On Aug. 4, Gallup published the results from a 2009 poll showing that over a third of participating Armenians wanted to leave Armenia permanently—a staggering 39 percent, to be exact. The percentage was highest in Armenia out of the 10 Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), as well as the former CIS member Georgia and associate CIS member Turkmenistan.

Around a third as many poll participants from neighboring Georgia and Azerbaijan desired to move to another country permanently. Their percentages were 14 and 12 percent, respectively.

The study further revealed that about the same number of participants from Armenia (39 percent) wanted to study or participate in a work-study program abroad—the highest in the polled countries—while 44 percent would like to move for temporary work—the second highest after Moldova (53 percent).

Moldova is second to Armenia in the percentage of those willing to migrate permanently. The Gallup report cites the large Armenian Diaspora—“one of the largest…in the world”—as at least a partial explanation of the poll results. “In countries where residents are among the most likely to want to migrate permanently, the percentage of respondents who say they have people outside their own countries whom they rely on is also higher,” it states. “A majority of Moldovans (54 percent) and about a third of Armenians (32 percent) and Belarusians (30 percent) say they have relatives or friends living in another country whom they can count on for help.”

Overall, the Gallup poll shows that in the 12 former Soviet states, an estimated 70 million people would like to migrate temporarily and 30 million permanently.

The results were based on one-on-one interviews with adults aged 15 years and older; the findings were subsequently projected to the total population of each country, using 2008 World Bank population estimates. At least 1,000 interviews were conducted in Armenia.

The late arrival of democratisation process, geo-politics and depressing economic situations drive people away from their mainlands...

insan,

Don't take this as Gospel!!!

Same O Same O, ....It's whats called ''creative accounting'' Manipulation of meaningless figures, wild assumptions, and wishful thinking!!! Never Ever trust Poll's, Reports, Surveys, and most of all Statistic's!!! Whether they are privately conducted, or government conducted, unless you know the whole criteria on which they were conducted!!! Or they will only tell you what the Authors/Organisations want you to know or wish you to believe, which is about 98% of the time!!!.....

It was published by an Armenian source and most of the Armenians commented on this issue confirmed the poll results but expressed their concerns that the poll results would lead the suffocation of Armenians in Armenia by her "enemies"...

Again, Don't believe everything that you read!!! Real and accurate surveys are bloody expensive to conduct, and will give you ALL the criteria that was used in the making of that survey... Nothing shown here, comes close to giving that information. How many people did they ask, that confirmed this poll?? Where and who were asked?? If you go to one region you may have many confirmations, go to another and you'll get next to none... Same goes for the types and ages of those asked to confirm or otherwise....

Sounds almost like a poll/survey conducted by an Armenia opposition party, or by a group close to it... lol!!!

Surveys reports polls etc, are the most widely abused means of giving the public information. Most can be ripped apart when investigated by the media... and that IS a fact ...lol!!!!
