Main Socio-Economic Indicators of the Kyrgyz Republic The socio-economic situation of the Kyrgyz Republic contains an analysis of the country's economic condition in January-June 2014 based on operational data, including the real, state, financial, external, and social sectors. Detailed statistical tables are provided in the appendices.
Imports to Kyrgyzstan account for approximately a quarter of the total consumption of public goods in the republic.
The significance of rural architecture in the life of Kyrgyzstan is very great, as more than half of the population of the republic are rural residents. There are about 2000 rural settlements in Kyrgyzstan. Despite a noticeable increase in the rural population over the past four decades, there has been a trend towards a reduction in the network of rural settlements with subsequent concentration and consolidation. An important role in the further development of rural construction was played by
Housing. The new Constitution of the USSR was one of the first in the world to proclaim the right to housing. This vital right for each of us depends on the skills of architects and builders. In Kyrgyzstan, mass housing construction is carried out according to standard projects, with industrial construction being the predominant method of building. The most widely used buildings are 5- and 9-story large-panel structures of series "105," designed to withstand seismic activity of 8-9
Industrial architecture. Today, the industry of Kyrgyzstan comprises 130 sectors and sub-sectors. Its output has increased 345 times compared to 1913. This development underscores the significance of industrial architecture as an urban-forming factor. The leading organization in the field of industrial design is the institute "Kyrgyzpromproekt". In Kyrgyzstan, many factories and plants have been built, which have a quite expressive appearance, such as: the flour mill in Kara-Balta,
Urban Planning. The development of urban planning in Kyrgyzstan represents a typical picture characteristic of most populated places in the USSR, expressed in the rapid growth of existing cities and towns and the emergence of new ones. The modern stage is associated with the development of master plans for a number of cities and towns in the 1960s. For some populated places, these were created for the first time, while for others, they replaced outdated plans. The technical and economic
The primary task of the Government and the National Bank of Kyrgyzstan (NBK) is financial stabilization, which includes:
Kyrgyzstan, having become an independent state, entered the global community as a developing country undergoing a transitional process towards building a truly democratic state with a market economy.
After the victory of the February bourgeois-democratic revolution, power in Russia passed into the hands of the Provisional Government, which represented the interests of large capitalists and landowners, determining its policy, including economic and financial. The slogan proclaimed by it, "War to a victorious end," meant for large capital that the super-profits from military supplies under government contracts flowed to the usual address. On the other hand, continuing the war was
Financial hunger. The first paper money - banknotes - were issued in Russia in 1796. Unlike the gold coins that existed at the same time, they did not have a fixed exchange rate. Their value often fluctuated, and they were almost always valued lower (sometimes several times) than their nominal value. In the first third of the 19th century, Russia operated a bimetallic system, where gold, silver, and banknotes circulated simultaneously. In the 1830s, preparations began for a monetary reform,
The oldest means of monetary circulation in our region is considered to be, as in other Eastern countries, livestock, tools of production and labor. Archaeological studies of the earliest monuments of Central Asia, including Tian Shan, also show that cowrie shells - a type of marine gastropod mollusk - were used as money. These shells are oval in shape, resembling white porcelain, and were often used as ornaments. Due to their shape, they were also referred to as "snake heads" or
As a rule, ancient money commands respect: it has seen and known much, sometimes containing secrets that remain unsolved for centuries. For instance, the material from which a coin is made allows us to conclude what metals were used at that time, how various alloys were composed, and whether the blanks were processed by casting or forging. If you weigh several identical coins, you will get an answer to the question of what units of measurement our distant ancestors used. Are you interested in
The stable growth dynamics of Kyrgyzstan's economy observed in recent years was interrupted by the events following the coup d'état on March 24, 2005. The goals of the COR-2010 were called into question.
The post-Soviet period in the Kyrgyz Republic was marked by dynamic changes. Gaining independence, Kyrgyzstan, at the end of 1991 and the beginning of 1992, like all other CIS countries, began the transition to a democratic system of governance and the implementation of radical economic reforms. They had to start and carry out these reforms under conditions of an unprecedented depth of economic crisis. The collapse of the Soviet Union meant a rupture of cooperative ties between economic
Water is essential for electricity production: over 90% of the electricity for household consumption in Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan is generated by hydropower plants. As for hydropower resources, the potential of the republic is estimated at 142.5 billion kWh of possible annual electricity generation (16.3 million kW in capacity), which can serve as a basis for large-scale hydropower construction. The technically feasible hydropower resources of the republic amount to 72.9 billion kWh, of which
Land Resources of Kyrgyzstan The climatic features dictate the development of agricultural sectors and farming with a high level of irrigation. The landscapes of the low semi-closed basins — Fergana, Chui, Talas — have been almost completely transformed into cultivated landscapes. Here, viticulture, horticulture, melon growing, and vegetable growing are well developed, with all cotton, tobacco, rice plantations and major areas of grain and technical crops concentrated. Rainfed and semi-rainfed
The situation in Kyrgyzstan by the end of the Civil War was very difficult. In 1922, industrial production was about two-thirds of that in 1913, sown areas decreased by 45%, and livestock numbers fell by 29% compared to 1916. The difficulties of the recovery period were exacerbated by the multi-structured economy, the dominance of patriarchal-feudal relations in the ails, the lack of large-scale industry, an extensive network of railways and highways, and a low level of culture. Kyrgyzstan
Agriculture. According to the legislative acts of the Russian Empire, the lands of the indigenous population were declared state property, which had significant political implications. From the very first days of governing the region, the Russian government effectively began to act as the supreme landowner. The 1886 statute legally defined land relations of the indigenous population of Turkestan, reflecting the essence of land policy in Kyrgyzstan. Although the land was generally declared
The economy of Kyrgyzstan during the era of Turkic states experienced syncretic development (a combination of the advantages of nomadic and settled lifestyles).
The tribal communities inhabiting the Central Tien Shan, Issyk-Kul, Chui, and Talas valleys engaged in nomadic animal husbandry, which was combined to varying degrees with agriculture and hunting. The ancient population of Kyrgyzstan raised cows, sheep, and Bactrian camels. Horses were, of course, a particular concern. It is possible that the Sakas were the first to learn how to prepare kumys. In winter, livestock was kept in pens, and feed was prepared in advance. In the late Bronze Age, the
Transport and Communication of the Republic of Kyrgyzstan It seems that just recently only bumpy roads and narrow paths connected Kyrgyz villages, and the most urgent news spread among the ails at the speed of a galloping horse. Now the republic has all types of modern transport — rail, road, and air. Road transport is the most developed, being the most convenient in our mountainous region. It accounts for 97% of all cargo transported within the republic.
