Dear Mrs. Hakobyan,

We cordially congratulate you on the 5^th anniversary of the RA Ministry of Diaspora.

Since its inception, the ministry has been carrying out many activities for the strengthening of bonds between Armenians in Armenia and abroad and preservation of the Armenian identity.

Throughout these years, the Hovhannes Shiraz School in Vienna has also been provided with great assistance from the ministry, and this has served as a great impetus for our school’s improvement, the strengthening of relations with Armenia, the introduction of new educational programs, as well as the provision of new textbooks and the implementation of several other pro-national events.

The administration and the entire staff at the Hovhannes Shiraz School in Vienna would like to wish you and the entire staff at the ministry good health, success and prosperity with the hope for cordial ties and close collaboration in the years to come.

With respect,

V. AMIRJANYAN

Principal of Hovhannes Shiraz School in Vienna
