Work is now underway to optimize and reduce them. This was announced by the Minister of Economy and Commerce Bakyt Sydykov on June 5 at a forum dedicated to debureaucratization and structural reforms.
The Minister stressed that reducing the administrative burden is one of the key steps to create a favorable environment for small and medium-sized businesses. This task is identified among the priorities in the National Development Program until 2030.
In particular, the ministry is focused on the development of industry, including support not only for large enterprises, but also for small and medium-sized industries. For this purpose, it is necessary to invest in human capital and modernize existing facilities.
Special attention is also paid to the transportation and logistics sector. The country's geographical location and participation in regional economic projects, such as the China-Kyrgyzstan-Uzbekistan railroad, create the potential for strengthening Kyrgyzstan's transit role.
In the energy sector, hydropower development remains a key area of focus. In addition to the flagship project Kambar-Ata HPP-1, there are plans to build small HPPs, as well as to develop solar and wind power plants.
Organic agriculture and sustainable tourism are considered equally promising. For the growth of these industries it is important to effectively utilize the natural resources of the republic, and in agriculture it is important to modernize the agricultural sector
