NON `SUNFLOWER’ PRICES FOR SUNFLOWER… AND
ANTI-CORRUPTION COMMERCIALS

The prices for social promotional ads are the same as
for other products, Chairman of the Consumers Rights
Protection NGO Abgar Yeghoyan told in an interview to
Panorama.am. He assures the prices for commercials are
so high that even if NGOs find money to shoot a social
promotional ad, as a rule, they do not manage to
broadcast them.

`For instance, the Public TV should have some free air
because it gets funds from the state. These funds must
be allocated to social promotion. We do not have that
distinction here and all promotions are charged the
same,’ Yeghoyan said also saying the `Consumers Rights
Protection’ will submit a new draft of the `Law on
Commercials’.
