Some residents of the capital, especially laborers, complain about the challenges of unemployment, particularly during the holy month of Ramadan.

Laborers say they cannot find work even for one day a week.

Emal, who has completed fourteen years of education and is now working as a laborer due to the lack of good job opportunities, told TOLOnews that since the beginning of Ramadan, he has only found work for three days.

"Our request is that they provide job opportunities. Many people are unemployed; if only they could establish a factory somewhere so that people could work," Emal said.

Others along with Emal also complained about unemployment.

"In this holy month of Ramadan, we went to work for two days, earning three hundred Afghanis each day, making six hundred in total. We eat dry bread; we have neither oil nor sugar, nor tea," Mohammad Fazel, a laborer said.

Wahid, another laborer said: “They should find work for the poor people so that they can overcome their misery.”

Economic experts said that creating job opportunities for the youth is beneficial for the country's economic growth.

"Based on the economic severity in Afghanistan, whenever employment rates rise, it leads to an increase in the purchasing power of consumers and creates effective demand in the market, which itself is a good incentive for suppliers. Overall, it can get the economic wheel turning. Therefore, work in the agriculture sector can be impactful, as well as in the water and electricity sectors," said Abdul Zahor Mudabir, an economist.

Previously, the Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs has reported that more than 100,000 people were provided with job opportunities in the year 1402 in the country.
