As of today, according to expert data, up to 800,000 Kyrgyz citizens are in labor migration
About 640,000 citizens have registered for migration in Russia.
The embassy strives to provide maximum assistance to our citizens in processing documents and obtaining other services, said the press secretary of the KR embassy in the Russian Federation, Gulbarchyn Bayimbetova, during a video bridge.
According to her, our citizens have many opportunities and benefits in the Russian Federation.
"Last year, a waiting room was built for our labor migrants at the embassy. Also, thanks to the Kyrgyz diaspora, an electronic queue system was installed. Now our citizens do not crowd but receive services by tickets," Bayimbetova noted.
She added that the embassy receives at least 200-300 people every day and processes about 100 documents.
Kyrgyzstan should not be ashamed of the fact that it is a supplier of labor to foreign labor markets, stated the chairman of the committee on industrial policy, export promotion, infrastructure development, and logistics of the KR Chamber of Commerce and Industry, Kubat Rakhimov.
The expert spoke at the conference "The Kyrgyz Republic in the Eurasian Economic Community system."
"In Lithuania, at one time, every fourth citizen left. Having gone abroad, these people did not disappear; they remained Lithuanians and made a huge contribution to the economy and development of their homeland," he noted.
According to Rakhimov, all countries are fighting for labor markets. Rakhimov emphasized that in this matter, the qualification and education of labor migrants from Kyrgyzstan are much more important.
