Alisher Kadyrov, a presidential candidate from the Milliy Tiklanish (National Revival) political party, has proposed introducing a mandatory tax on the income of labor migrants who send money home to Uzbekistan. He stressed that this should be done for the benefit of the country’s development. “Taxes play a very important role in the development of society. Therefore labor migrants who work in foreign countries should pay taxes for the benefit of Uzbekistan,” he said, speaking to voters. Alisher Kadyrov stressed that currently the income of migrant workers is not taxed, only the money sent home is calculated. “This is certainly good, the money is coming in. We must acknowledge this fact. But the money is sent to the family only, and it is not taxed. This money is not spent for the good of the country. Let’s be more patriotic. I suggest that migrants also pay taxes,” the presidential candidate concluded. It should be reminded that in mid-August of this year, the State Duma of the Russian Federation proposed to introduce a tax on remittances of migrants. In November 2020, the State Tax Committee (STC) of Uzbekistan commented on the information circulated on the network that labor migrants are now required to pay tax, since from 2021 they are equated to self-employed persons. “The State Tax Committee informs that according to Article 369 of the Tax Code of Uzbekistan, self-employed persons are exempted from paying personal income tax,” the message says. It is noted that a self-employed person can voluntarily pay social tax to the Pension Fund for calculating pensions and seniority, the minimum amount of which for 2020 was set at 50% of BCA (111,500 soums) until the end of 2020. If a citizen working abroad does not see the need to calculate the pension and length of service in Uzbekistan, then the social tax to the Pension Fund does not need to be paid, the State Tax Committee specified.

When you died When you died, it was like that frozen mountain of emotional outbursts inside me melted all at once Nobody expected it when I stared screaming and sobbing at the funeral My older brother tried to take me outside And I punched him in the jaw (I apologized later, of course) You'd hardly recognize me now, I think It's a lot harder for me to stare blankly now, and take things Because I keep remembering you saying "Stand up for yourself! You deserve better, mi amor." And you're not here, anymore, to stand up for me Or our kids I don't know how to describe it, exactly What changed the moment you left this Earth But it's like I was blue one moment, and red the next Hard as ice before I melted into a hurricane I was a mess for a year or two, I think Before I managed to get everything under control again But even now, I'm not like I was I'm still calm, and rational, and think before I speak But if anything or anyone threatens our children or their happiness I know I have to be the one to protect them And as anyone who's gone mountain climbing knows The serene snow-covered peaks that look so tranquil from a distance Are the deadliest By Aknier @LanguageStuff

@LanguageStuff The Mountain Short story My mother said that out of all five of her children I was the easiest baby I think what she meant was that I hardly cried, Rarely fussed And was generally asleep Which I guess was a good thing, for her As the fourth of five she had a lot to deal with before she could get to me So I made it easier for her I kept doing it as I grew up If one of my siblings dropped their ice cream, I'd give them mine so they'd stop making a scene When someone had to sit in a middle seat You can bet that's where my car seat would be strapped In fifth grade, when Clara Gomez stole my cookie from my lunch box I just shrugged, and ate my carrot sticks My nickname was "montañita", little mountain Because I was never moved, never bothered, always calm In seventh grade, I broke my leg But I didn't tell anyone for three days I just gritted my teeth and hopped along Until my father found me crying on the bathroom floor He took me to the hospital, and bought me a cast we couldn't afford And when the kids at school called me a cripple Well, you can guess what I did In high school, my little sister Sofia was getting picked on by some boys I pretended I didn't see it happen But that night, I switched out her too-small uniform skirt for mine She stopped getting teased, And I wore pants for the rest of the year When my college Algebra professor lost my test and made me retake it, I just nodded and did it When I got catcalled walking across campus, I just looked down at the ground And you The first day you came up to me and offered to buy me coffee I was sure you were making fun of me too So I stayed quiet Eventually, you flashed me that blinding smile and told me, "Guess I'll take that as a yes, then." I think I said about three words to you that first day But I gave you my number And answered when you called At first, I think, you just thought I was shy But as the months went on and things got more serious, you stared to get upset when I didn't tell you things When I got fired from my part-time job and started skipping lunch to afford my textbooks I didn't want to tell you, because I knew it'd upset you I was right, wasn't I? You were so mad when you figured it out "Here!" You yelled, shoving money at me "Take it! I don't need it! You know I have a scholarship, you know my parents send me money, take the goddamn money!" I just stood there I'd never had someone yell at me while doing something nice before When you noticed how stunned I was, you softened your voice "Please, it hurts me to see you starving yourself. Please, take the money." For the first time ever, I talked back "Why?" You laughed at me "Because I love you, you idiot." I took the money But snuck most of it back into your wallet that night when you were asleep For most of the time we dated, we never fought Even when one of your friends tried to tell me you cheated on me (I know you hadn't, the friend was just a jerk) When he tried to tell me, I just stared at him Didn't cry, or yell, or demand proof That freaked the friend out a bit He kept trying to convince me, but I stayed so calm he eventually gave up and admitted the truth Later, you told me you couldn't believe how amazing I was, to trust you so much The truth was, I had no idea if it was the truth or not I just didn't react because I knew if I did it wouldn't change the outcome And I'd learned that staying calm in situations like that gave me the power Our marriage, too, had very few fights If you didn't take out the trash like you said you would, I did it And when you noticed I'd done your chores, you felt so bad that you'd do some of mine to make it up When our children misbehaved I never raised my voice, or screamed, or made a scene I just asked them what they did And eventually, they'd cave Our oldest told me once it'd be much less scary if I'd just shout at them like dad did I figured I'd stay like I was Calm, quiet, a peacemaker, nonreactive, For the rest of my life But you changed that You jerk
