Small businessmen protested against strict quarantine announced by the Government between 08 and 24 January 2021 and demand the abrogation of the amendments to a law about the simplified tax system, which will considerably complicate their ability to manage their businesses, raise their prices for clients and increase the possibility of unjustified fines, according to local media reports.
