The Bishkek mayor’s office plans to raise the salaries of local government employees. Vice Mayor Ernis Zarlykov informed about this today at the regular session of the City Council.

According to him, the Mayor ordered to analyze the general policy of payment to workers of local self-government.

«Today, sweepers, librarians and others receive a small salary. The increase should be considered within the whole system of local self-government. We will consider this issue," the Vice Mayor said.

The date of a possible increase in salaries hasn’t yet been announced.
