They wanted to draw attention to the fact that Mahilyou markets had stopped functioning.

The republican association of entrepreneurs is asking officials to react to the situation in the markets.

Some markets are closed and there are many empty pavilions in shopping centres.

It is impossible to stick to law #222, many of them explain.
