In a recent interview with Iumi Stori, a young man who chose to remain anonymous shared his frustrating experience trying the bureaucratic hurdles of obtaining documents for seasonal work.
His story sheds light on a growing issue: the rising costs and inefficiencies within government services that are making life increasingly difficult for ordinary citizens.

The young man revealed that the process of securing all necessary documentation has become not only time-consuming but also financially burdensome. He explained that official fees are just the starting point.

In reality, applicants are often expected to pay double or even triple the stated amount to make the process. “If the fee is 100, you better bring 150 or 200,” he said, emphasizing that knowing someone within the government ministries or paying extra has become the rule.
This practice, he noted, is not limited to one department but has become widespread across various government services. The added financial demand and the need for connections have made it harder for individuals to access essential services, particularly those from low-income backgrounds.

The young man raised an important question: “Are public sector workers not paid enough, or what is the problem?” His story reflects a broader concern about corruption and inefficiency within the system, which is creating unnecessary barriers for citizens trying to meet basic requirements for work and livelihood.
This account highlights the urgent need for transparency and reform in government services. As more people share similar experiences, it becomes clear that addressing these issues is important to ensuring fair and equitable access to public resources. The young man’s story is a call to action for accountability and improvement in the public sector, so that everyone can navigate these processes without undue hardship.
