Flower grower Ekaterina Titova turned to President Sadyr Japarov and asked to reconsider the proposed tax changes.

At the same time, it will be possible to trade only inside the market.
Workers of Orto-Sai and Madina markets are unhappy that they will not be able to work under a special tax regime. They will have to use cash registers.
