On September 18 of the current year, the State Statistics Committee held a meeting for central office staff on the decree of the Kengash of the Legislative Chamber and the Kengash of the Senate of the Oliy Majlis of the Republic of Uzbekistan “On further improving the system for organizing wedding, family, anniversary celebrations, family funeral ceremonies and events commemorating the dead ".
The head of the Department of legislative technique and anti-corruption expertise of the center for training of lawyers, Professor Bobokul Toshev was invited to the meeting. At the event, B. Toshev emphasized the importance of approving this resolution and gave examples. In recent years, in weddings, families, anniversaries, family funeral ceremonies and events dedicated to the memory of the deceased, who have embodied centuries-old traditions and customs of the people, there are such negative manifestations and vices as vanity, the desire to show oneself, and neglect of social status other people, excessive waste, ignoring the traditions and customs of the people.
However, analysis of the study, as well as dialogue directly with the population, and appeals from members of the public, showed that a number of serious problems and shortcomings still persist in this area. In particular, some citizens after spending wasteful and pompous wedding events borrow money and go to work outside the republic to pay off.
Individual citizens perceive magnificent family events as the only way to avoid criticism and harsh remarks from neighbors and relatives, and pressure from the public as a whole. Meanwhile, such measures lead to debt and, ultimately, to conflicts between close relatives.
At the end of the event, detailed answers to questions on the topic were given.
