Uzbekistan: Teachers are making profits at the expense of parents of schoolchildren
Since the beginning of the cotton campaign in Uzbekistan some unscrupulous teachers began to divide students into two camps.
– In the beginning of this academic year, principals and teachers of some Uzbek schools began inviting schoolchildren’s parents for individual talks and tell them “the cotton campaign is starting soon, if you have the opportunity to leave your child at home, then let’s talk it over.” Thus, they demand a bribe from them. If the family can afford it, parents will be able to save their child this season from picking cotton and anguishes children face in the cotton fields. But if parents cannot afford it, then the child is included in the so-called list of “not being able to pay”, and instead of going to school, will have to spend time in cotton fields until tale fall, – says Davlatoy Murodova, resident of Andijan.

Dear Mr.Anders Perklev,
Investigation of the Swedish Prosecutors Office of telecommunications company TeliaSonera, accusing its leadership of giving bribes in huge amounts to Uzbek citizens, who are close to Uzbek president’s family, has caused a major stir not only in Scandinavia, but also throughout the Eurasian continent. Despite the fact that the management of TeliaSonera refutes the allegations made against the company, the facts presented by journalists and the recent events in Uzbekistan only confirm conspiracy between the Uzbek dictatorship and TeliaSonera, one of the leaders in mobile market of Uzbekistan.
