“Our achievements are not only in numbers but also in qualitative changes in the economic structure. The economy is confidently transitioning from a consumer model to an investment-industrial one. In 2025, GDP increased by 11.1%, approaching the historical milestone of 2 trillion soms. This is a logical result of sustainable growth of around 10% in recent years,” emphasized the Deputy Prime Minister.

Compared to 2020, the services sector increased by 3.5 times.

Capital investments rose from 6.1 billion soms in 2021 to 51.9 billion soms in 2025, indicating accelerated development of the industry.
Agriculture also demonstrates sustainable development: the gross output increased from 249.5 billion soms in 2020 to 459.7 billion soms in 2025, nearly doubling.
As part of strategic planning, an Action Plan for the National Development Program until 2030 was developed, which includes priority areas and key tasks. The document contains major national projects, including the implementation of the China-Kyrgyzstan-Uzbekistan railway, which has already entered an active phase.
Priority projects remain such as the construction of the Kambaratinskaya HPP-1, as well as the development of wind and solar energy, and small hydropower plants within the framework of international cooperation.
Special attention is also paid to the development of tourism. Important projects include “Ala-Too Resort,” “Chatkal Resort,” and other tourist clusters.
Work on creating a special financial and investment zone “Tamchy” continues, which should attract additional investments and stimulate business activity.
At the end of the meeting, Bakyt Torobaev issued a number of instructions to the Ministry of Economy and Commerce, emphasizing the importance of consistent interaction and strengthening measures for the qualitative implementation of priority projects.
