If the parent company is called Nigaz, I wonder what the subsidiaries will be named?

LOL! I can't believe that's a real company name. They clearly did not hire one of those consulting firm that looks at the implications of your name in different languages.

Actually, Gazprom had retained Spix Consulting as their trademark & logo specialists. It's not clear whether Spix looked at the implications of the Nigaz name in different languages. :razz:
