Important and even revolutionary changes have taken place in the country. Public and political figure Zainidin Kurmanov notes that these reforms are not isolated but encompass a wide range of issues, including the transition to a new Constitution and changes in management priorities. "Corruption and bureaucracy are gradually being eliminated, and executive discipline is increasing. Kyrgyzstan should become a key link on the East-West route, especially against the backdrop of the development of railway networks in Central Asia, contributing to global changes in the geopolitical landscape," he adds.
Another important project is the construction of the railway from China to Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan. This route is already under construction, and with its commissioning, Kyrgyzstan will be able to overcome transportation difficulties, ensuring budget revenues from cargo transportation and integrating into global trade.
The economy has partially emerged from the shadows due to improved tax administration and the introduction of cash registers. Over five years, the republic's budget has tripled, allowing for increased salaries for medical workers and teachers, while minimum pensions have for the first time exceeded the subsistence minimum. However, high inflation rates remain a problem that needs to be addressed to improve the living standards of citizens.
Management has become more effective, and Kyrgyzstan has transitioned to a new economic model, making the country dynamically developing, notes former Foreign Minister Alikbek Jekshenkulov.
Summarizing the five-year presidency of Sadyr Japarov, it can be confidently stated that Kyrgyzstan has changed beyond recognition for the better. Domestic and foreign policies have become more systematic, with the main priorities being the interests of the state and the well-being of the people.
It is also important to note issues of internal security. The strengthening of the state has been made possible by the neutralization of criminal structures that previously hindered economic development and created threats to political stability.
Look at the indicators of economic growth: in terms of GDP growth rates, the republic ranks third in the world and is a leader among the SCO, EAEU, and CIS countries. We are moving along the path of creation at a good pace.
Over the past five years, Kyrgyzstan has made significant strides in transformations that could have taken decades under different historical conditions. Today, we observe a country in the process of development, confidently moving forward and strengthening its economy.
