Issyk-Kul, June 30, 2023. / Kabar /. “The city of Asman will become a financial hub that connects East and West, North and South,” President of Kyrgyzstan Sadyr Zhaparov said today, speaking at the capsule-laying ceremony at the construction site of the city of Asman in the Issyk-Kul region.

He said that given that today the countries of the world are striving to build smart cities, the project to build a smart city is worthy of encouragement.

“By implementing this project, we will build an innovative city on the shores of our pearl - Issyk-Kul Lake and become an economic and tourist center. In the history of independent Kyrgyzstan, such a major project is aimed primarily at the development of tourism and investment opportunities. The construction of such an innovative city on the shores of our wonderful lake, which attracts tourists from all over the world, will open the way to further increase the tourism and investment potential of our country.

By building the smart city of Asman, we intend to create harmony between our sacred lake, our beautiful nature and a modern smart city. In other words, we attach great importance to the ecological value of our lake,” he said.
