State programs aimed at ensuring employment, developing family entrepreneurship, and efficiently utilizing land resources are demonstrating high results in the country. In particular, modern greenhouses, created with the support of preferential loans, are becoming an important element in ensuring food security and a model for achieving a prosperous life through labor for the rural population.
Jumaqul Avezov, a hardworking and initiative-taking farm owner residing in the 'Tinchlik' mahalla of the Qorako'l district in Bukhara region, is an example of such people. He was able to effectively utilize the opportunities provided by the state and, with the help of a preferential bank loan, built a modern greenhouse, turning his land into a real source of income.
Currently, this greenhouse, using modern agricultural technologies, grows vegetables such as tomatoes, eggplants, bulgar squash, eggplants, and lovia. Because the cultivation is carried out according to a scientific approach and diligence, the yield increases year after year.
The most significant aspect is achieving three harvests within one year in the greenhouse. This allows for high economic benefit from a small plot of land, multiplies the family income, and provides local markets with fresh and high-quality vegetables throughout the year.
Part of the produced goods is used for the needs of the family itself, while the main part is distributed among the residents of the mahalla and neighbors. This simultaneously provides the population with affordable and quality products and strengthens the financial well-being of the farm by creating a stable source of income.
The results achieved by Jumaqul Avezov through hard work clearly prove that even a small plot can become a huge source of opportunities. His experience demonstrates the possibility of obtaining a rich harvest on a small area, successfully developing family business, and ensuring employment for the population by organizing gardening and greenhouse farming based on modern approaches.
Such exemplary farms not only feed their families but also actively promote the culture of efficient land use in the mahalla, becoming a source of inspiration and example for others. They prove that any opportunity can be turned into real success through labor, aspiration, and rational planning.
The opportunities provided by the state bear great fruit in the hands of a hardworking person. Jumaqul Avezov's greenhouse is a vivid confirmation of this. Achieving three harvests in one greenhouse per year is not just a success, but a testament to the effective combination of knowledge, labor, and created opportunities. Such proactive and dedicated people play an important role in the development of agriculture, improving the welfare of the population, and ensuring the country's food security, contributing to the development of New Uzbekistan.
As part of the National Guard championship in sports combat, a high-level competition program was organized at the Directorate of the National Guard of the Syrdarya Region. This event contributed to strengthening the physical fitness of servicemen, improving sporting skills, promoting a healthy lifestyle, and reinforcing an atmosphere of mutual solidarity and healthy competition among teams.
Servicemen from the Republic of Karakalpakstan, various regions, and special units participated in national combat competitions, demonstrating their mastery. The fights took place in a tense and fair atmosphere, where participants showed a high level of physical readiness, technical preparation, endurance, resilience, and a strong desire to win.
Each bout was conducted based on the principles of sports ethics, honesty, and mutual respect, which once again confirmed that the competition was held in a fair and dignified spirit. Furthermore, the fights highlighted the invaluable role of sports in enhancing the fighting spirit and professional skills of servicemen. The main goal of the tournament was to develop the physical capabilities of servicemen, widely promote a healthy lifestyle among them, increase interest in sports, and identify the strongest athletes.
Following the heated matches, the team of the National Guard Directorate for the Republic of Karakalpakstan took first place in the team standings. The 'Qalqon' brigade won second place, and the 'Sarboz' brigade team took third place. At the awards ceremony, diplomas, cups, and souvenirs were solemnly presented to the winners and prize-winners. Their achievements were recognized as a deserved result of dedication to sports, regular training, and strong will.
A round table was held at the center for media content preparation with the participation of heads and employees of print media, as well as chief editors and responsible persons. This event was organized in a hybrid format via video conferencing, which included representatives from local publications' editorial offices from various regions of the republic online.
During the live, sincere, and constructive dialogue, the head of the Uzbekistan Journalists Association, the renowned figure Shuhrat Oripov, emphasized that ensuring freedom of speech and the press, as well as increasing the role of the media in society's life, are among the stable directions of state policy in the country in recent years.
It was acknowledged that systematic work is being carried out in the country to modernize the media space and raise the quality of national content to international standards. Furthermore, legal guarantees aimed at protecting the legitimate interests of the media and strengthening their material and technical base are gradually being expanded.
The system for providing the population with timely and quality information has significantly improved due to the widespread introduction of digital technologies into the national media sphere. Special attention is paid to training young and talented personnel capable of meeting the requirements of modern journalism, as well as organizing their internships abroad.
The activities of state bodies and institutions in the field of information provision have been radically activated, and an open dialogue has been established between them, the media, and the public. The practice of holding open discussions and preparing analytical and critical materials on current socio-economic problems in local publications and television channels is expanding.
The regulatory framework governing the information sphere is being improved in accordance with modern requirements, creating a free creative environment for industry participants. The development of internet journalism and the blogosphere contributes to strengthening public control as an institution of civil society.
The opportunities for widely promoting our national values on the international arena are expanding through increasing the competitiveness of local media products. Participants highly appreciated that the discussion was dedicated to comprehensive issues of modern press development and support for industry workers.
During the round table, special attention was paid to the priority tasks outlined in the state leader's holiday greeting for press and media workers. It was noted that it is extremely important to ensure social protection, stimulate labor, improve health, and enhance the living conditions of media workers.
An initiative has been put forward to develop a new comprehensive conceptual and normative document by the Department of Communications of the Presidential Administration. Within this initiative, a number of issues are planned to be studied, including identifying problems in the development of media activities, creating modern mechanisms for the legal and social protection of journalists, implementing fundamental models for personnel training, organizing systematic professional development and supporting young journalists, as well as improving the activities of the Uzbekistan Journalists Association.
It is important that the draft of this normative document will be formed not only based on the views of one organization but also on the opinions and proposals of the journalists themselves, as they best know the industry and feel its pain points.
Today's meeting was organized precisely for this purpose. Round table participants shared their views on expanding the audience of print media, improving content quality, integration with digital platforms, and discussed the real difficulties faced by editorial offices and ways to solve them.
The proposed solutions will contribute to creating a system that serves the interests of journalists and contributes to the development of the country's media space. It is planned that such meetings will be held regularly, with future stages involving representatives of internet publications, bloggers, and independent media experts.
During an expanded meeting held in the Zhizhkha region, special attention was paid to the issue that the main criterion for evaluation should be public consent, not reporting. Although figures in reports may look attractive, creating the impression of timely completion of all tasks, the mere fact of recording completion in documents has no value if no changes occur in people's lives.
At the meeting chaired by the head of the region, Ulugbek Mustafayev, topics such as ensuring executive discipline, critical analysis of the fulfillment of Presidential and government assignments, and strengthening the personal responsibility of leaders were discussed. Deputy heads of the region, mayors, heads of district administrations, as well as heads of regional organizations and institutions participated in the event.
It was re-emphasized that executive discipline in state governance is not just a formality but a crucial factor in strengthening public trust. Since decisions made by the President and the Government must primarily serve to ensure the interests of the people, the development of territories, and the improvement of citizens' quality of life, every assignment must find its embodiment not only on paper but also in practice.
Regular monitoring of the fulfillment of assignments given by the head of state, the Presidential Administration, the Cabinet of Ministers, and the head of the region was carried out during the first half of the current year. During this period, only one delay in fulfilling an assignment was recorded, which on the one hand looks like a positive indicator. However, the meeting included an analysis of the real state of affairs behind these figures.
It turned out that even if some assignments are marked as 'completed' in information systems, the expected result by the population has not yet been felt locally. Thus, there is still a certain gap between entries in electronic systems and people's daily lives. The main task now is to eliminate this difference. From now on, all executive documentation will be evaluated not by the report, but by what changes have occurred in people's lives, by citizen consent, and by factual effectiveness.
The meeting also provided a detailed analysis of the implementation of five important documents aimed at the comprehensive development of the Zhizhkha region over the past two years. Of the 294 assignments stipulated in these documents, 125 had their execution deadlines met. However, only 42 of them were fully completed. Furthermore, 78 assignments whose deadlines have expired remain in the 'in progress' status, and another 5 assignments have not been completed at all. Do these figures not indicate the need for a serious revision of the working style of some leaders?
Analyses clearly showed that problems persist in key areas such as construction, agriculture, investment, social sphere, and tourism. Insufficient levels of responsibility were sharply criticized regarding the repair of some infrastructure facilities, failure to meet deadlines for land development work, implementation of fish farming projects, investment programs, and renovation works.
During the President's visit, the efficiency of cooperation with ministries, departments, and commercial banks gathered in cities and districts was also discussed. Leaders were given the condition to use all opportunities, actively implement large investment projects, and most importantly, show the results of these projects in people's lives.
It was noted that from now on, the fulfillment of each assignment will be studied not based on data from offices, but directly on site. Which facilities have been handed over for use? What problem has been solved? In which district have people felt these changes? This is what will form the basis of the main assessment of a leader's activities.
Following the meeting, clear tasks were assigned to all leaders to fundamentally change their working style, strengthen executive discipline, and ensure the full and high-quality completion of every assignment. Additionally, it was set the task to ensure the fulfillment of assignments related to the competence of the Zhizhkha Regional Administration according to the approved schedule in July, as well as to achieve high monthly fulfillment indicators.
The most important conclusion of the meeting was this: the true evaluation of a leader lies not in the figures of reports, but in the changes in people's lives. If a citizen has found a solution to their problem and gained confidence in tomorrow, this is the most honest indicator of executive discipline. Because only where public consent is ensured do reforms yield their true returns.
