Previously, during meetings in December and January, key tasks in these areas were identified. The head of state emphasized that 2025 should be a turning point in addressing employment issues and reducing poverty levels.

In particular, this year it is planned to ensure employment for 5.2 million people, lift 1.5 million citizens out of poverty, attract 42 billion dollars in foreign investments, and increase the export volume to over 30 billion dollars.

During the meeting, reports on the work done and the interim results achieved were presented.

In January alone, 277 thousand people were employed, of which 91 thousand secured permanent jobs, while 153 thousand were engaged in entrepreneurial activities.

New approaches to poverty reduction are being implemented across 32 areas. Recently, groups of specialists from ministries and local administrations visited China to study and exchange experiences. Now, efforts are being made on the ground to inform the population about available opportunities and assist them in finding sources of income.

The creation of jobs and the attraction of investments are closely interconnected. This year, the implementation of 8 thousand projects totaling 14 billion dollars is planned, which will create 272 thousand permanent jobs.

According to preliminary estimates, last year the country attracted 3 billion dollars in foreign investments. In February, an equal amount of investments is expected along with the launch of 630 new projects.

During the meeting, it was particularly noted that it is necessary to significantly accelerate the pace of investment activities and address each project individually.

Since the beginning of the year, the export volume has reached 1.3 billion dollars. Responsible officials have been tasked, in cooperation with foreign partners, to assist entrepreneurs in entering external markets and involve new enterprises in export activities.
