Today president Rahmon met with Tajik entrepreneurs (rus) in Kohi Vahdat and discussed with them their problems and future plans. As I was informed, this meeting lasted for about four hours. President attentively listened to the complaints and questions of the entrepreneurs after making a long speech about development of entrepreneurship in Tajikistan and the efforts made by the government to support this process. The eyewitnesses say that some of the complaints and questions were very serious and brave.

Obviously apart from the president and the entrepreneurs this meeting (forum) was attended by most of the ministers and all other high governmental officials. These officials had a hard time when president recalled that some of his orders are not properly executed.

Talking about the execution of orders president brought as an example the ban on driving cars by students. He emphasized that there are still some cases that this prohibition is still violated. “From now onwards the violators will be strictly punished right up to expulsion from the schools, – said Rahmon. – It is not a secret that most of such students are children of entrepreneurs. It would be better to have children of peasants from rural mountainous areas of the country”.
