According to him, our republic has a difficult economic situation, and the labor market situation, accordingly, is not favorable. «The realities of life are such that all the hardships lie first of all on slander female shoulders and the children.

«And the children instead of attending schools go to work in markets and fields. Some public figures suggest legalizing child labor.

This contradicts to the norms of the legislation," Kubat Otorbaev stressed.
