The Cabinet of Ministers of Kyrgyzstan approved the action plan until 2030. The corresponding decision was signed by Chairman of the Cabinet of Ministers Adylbek Kasymaliev.
The document was developed to implement the National Development Program of the Kyrgyz Republic until 2030, approved by presidential decree. The plan covers key areas of the country’s socioeconomic development and includes approximately 900 measures. According to the document, Kyrgyzstan has set ambitious goals.
These include ensuring an average annual real GDP growth of 8 percent, achieving a gross domestic product of at least $30 billion, and increasing GDP per capita to $4,500.

In agriculture and tourism, the plan provides for the development of full-cycle livestock farming enterprises, the expansion of organic farming, the construction of agro-logistics centers, the digitalization of water resource management, and the development of tourism clusters, including ecotourism, medical tourism, and sports tourism.
A separate section is devoted to green energy. It includes projects for the construction and launch of large and small hydroelectric power plants, the development of energy cascades, the construction and modernization of power transmission lines and substations, and the renovation of existing hydroelectric power plants.
