This visit was part of the “Open Cabinet: Area of Responsibility” initiative, which allows journalists to observe government operations and development efforts firsthand.
Accompanied by media personnel, Mamatkanov toured several essential social and infrastructure projects throughout the Osh region. This initiative is geared towards increasing governmental transparency and providing citizens with insights into the effective management of local programs.
His first meeting focused on the “Bala Irysy” social benefit initiative, concentrating on coordination among government bodies and ensuring timely assistance to eligible families. Mamatkanov urged authorities to prioritize the efficient distribution of benefits to those in need.
Coinciding with International Children’s Day celebrations, Mamatkanov highlighted the crucial role of investing in youth at a special gathering held at T. Satylganov Recreation Park.
