“Five months have already passed, but no real support measures for the sewing industry have been adopted. When difficulties arise, no one is interested in what happened. When I opened my workshop, inspections lasted three months, but when problems occur, no agency shows any interest,” he emphasized, adding that about half a million people work in this sector.
In response to deputies' questions about the number of closed sewing companies in the country, Minister of Economy and Commerce Bakyt Sydykov was unable to provide specific figures. He noted that many enterprises do not undergo registration, making it extremely difficult to determine the exact number of closed workshops.
