Today, the first three candidates for the presidency of the country take the state language exam.
The first to pass the test is the head of League-Anti-Crisis Center Nazarbek Nyshanov, who was the first who submitted statement on his intention to run for the presidency.
The second in the list is Omurbek Tekebayev. However, the question of his participation in testing remains open.
The leader of Akshumkar party Temir Sariev and the director of the company Auirdin Arstanbek Abdyldaev (the author of the famous «winter will not be») will also pass the exam today.
The Kyrgyz language test consists of four tasks. 50 minutes are allocated for the lexical and grammatical part, and 20–25 — for listening, reading and speaking in the Kyrgyz language.
According to the law, examiners must receive more than 60 points from the expert commission.
