On March 14, he held a meeting with representatives of construction companies in Osh, where they discussed the conditions under which large construction projects were carried out.
According to the minister, "this is a dead-end situation. Work has been suspended because contractors have not received payment. Many of them invested their own funds to continue construction. We were sent to Osh by President Sadyr Japarov to address the issues on the ground. We studied everything and found that there are more than 30 facilities that began construction without project and estimate documentation and without signed contracts with contractors, based solely on verbal agreements," he noted.
He added that all the collected information will be forwarded to the relevant authorities for further action.
It is also worth noting that it was previously reported that the city administration has debts to contractors amounting to 12 billion soms. Zhenishbek Toktorbaev confirmed the existence of the debt but clarified that the actual amount owed is significantly less.
