“Mountains cover 94% of our country’s territory. Each of our seven regions could have such ski resorts. But we practically have none. Why? Because since gaining independence, from ordinary citizens to presidents, we were engaged exclusively in politics. Every day there were rallies, every day — celebrations. No attention was paid to the economy, tourism and other important sectors,” Japarov stated.

“Seeing Amirsoy ski resort, I was amazed. My colleague Shavkat Mirziyoyev built this high-level resort from scratch. No words. Well done. So many people are employed here! Millions of tourists come here to relax. The level of service is on par with Europe. Everything is at the highest level,” Japarov wrote.
