Vadim reports that electricity in Tajikistan becomes more expensive for the empoverished population (ENG).
The mayor of Dushanbe and Chairman of the Tajik Parliament’s Upper Chamber Mamadsaid Ubaidulloev proposed a strange way to raise funds for construction of Rogun hydropower station - one of the biggest energy projects in Tajikistan. He calculated all salaries of the Dushanbe residents and drew a conclusion that if all of the working people in the city give up half of their wages in May and June, it will constitute about $10 million.
