This was reported by the press service of the President of Kyrgyzstan.
This information was announced during President of the Kyrgyz Republic Sadyr Japarov’s working visit to Naryn region on June 23, during which he reviewed the socio-economic development progress of Kochkor district.
“Significant results have been achieved in the field of road construction. Over the past five years, 116.6 kilometres of asphalt pavement have been laid across the district,” the statement said.
