In recent years, entrepreneurship, agro-industry, and the service sector have been developing dynamically in Khorezm. The visit of the Head of state at the beginning of the year and the tasks outlined during it gave this an additional impetus.
Attracting $1.5 billion in investment to the region next year is planned. This will create many enterprises, jobs, and prosperity growth.
For example, if 175 hectares of land in Kushkupyr district are added to the industrial zone, then projects worth $1 billion can be implemented. Two thousand jobs will be created in the electrical, chemical, mechanical engineering, and pharmaceutical sectors.
Reducing the protection zone of the Shavat Canal from 50 to 25 meters will allow for projects worth $30 million. Services worth 1 trillion UZS will be provided here, and 2.5 thousand new jobs will be created. There is also an opportunity to implement projects worth $50 million around the Gazavat and Polvon canals.
Unrealized opportunities exist in agriculture and water management. There are sufficient conditions for expanding poultry farming in Kushkupyr district and fish farming in Bagat district. Improving the water supply in Yangiariq will provide 1.2 thousand people with jobs in growing melons, rice and breeding fish.
There are also proposals in the social sphere. In particular, there is a high need for quality education. Therefore, it is planned to repair 44 schools and kindergartens, build new education institutions based on public-private partnership. It is also planned to create multidisciplinary medical centers in Urgench, Bagat, Shavat and Yangibazar districts.
The Head of state instructed to summarize these proposals and prepare a draft resolution. The President noted that it is essential to turn opportunities into results, provide people with jobs, and increase their incomes.
