It is located in the historical center of Minsk. The corridors of the building have preserved the atmosphere of the Komsomol movement, the romance of the adherents of the youth movement. It is convenient to get there, there is a place to walk.
All people from 14 to 30 years old are forced to join.(In this case, the Constitution of the Republic of Belarus has article 36, which says that "everyone has the right to freedom of association." ) The introduction has not brought anyone any really useful buns yet. But you have to pay dues. It is unclear where this money is going.
My son is 16 years old, he and two of his friends are members of the BRSM. This summer, the guys really wanted to work in the summer, earn their personal money. My son informed me that they went to the BRSM, the city of Brest, and they were promised to employ a handyman in the Brest meat processing plant for the month of August (2021). It is necessary to make contributions in the amount of 8 rubles and undergo a medical examination, make a certificate and bring it. The guys did everything, my son was already planning where he would spend the money, but they were refused. Why would you do that? I'm sure they initially knew that the guys would not be employed or took someone who paid extra. It's very unpleasant. The guys are disappointed. Why such an organization at all? Do you have to pay dues?
They are forcibly forced to join this organization both at school and at the university, in addition, fees must be paid at the university. So you don't want to be a member of the organization, but you also pay them money... At the moment, I am faced with the fact that it is not clear how to leave the organization (according to the area of the school, university, residence permit - no one can tell)
Forced entry, a ban on leaving it while you study and practice. Fuck this stuff for 4 years, nothing has happened during this time and they don't let me leave
The organization is a Komsomol receiver! It helps a lot to educate real patriots of Belarus. In addition, there are many travel agencies in this building and even a translation agency from foreign languages.
