A serious environmental problem has intensified in the Omsk region, caused by an oil spill that has spread onto the mainland of the country. According to data from the organization 'Greenpeace', the area of the contaminated territory has approached 1300 square kilometers.
The oil slick, which was associated with the tanker 'Caroline Bezengi', is stuck in the Arabian Sea and has spread over a distance of about 200 kilometers.
In accordance with point 23 of the Plan of the People's Democratic Party of Uzbekistan for 2026, the Council of Karakalpakstan held public hearings.
These hearings were dedicated to the work being carried out to form a culture of a healthy lifestyle among the population, improve the quality of life, especially in rural areas, and expand opportunities for physical culture and sports activities.
Addressing citizens' problems and finding practical solutions to their difficulties has become one of the key areas of activity for state institutions aimed at listening to the concerns of the population.
During another outreach reception held at the Public Reception Center of the Mirzaobod district of Sirdar region, appeals from 33 citizens were comprehensively reviewed.
The head of the district, Abdurakhim Umarov, participated in the reception, conducting a meeting with residents in an open and sincere atmosphere. During this meeting, issues worrying the population were heard, and specific measures for their resolution were determined.
A total of 33 citizens took part in the reception, raising issues related to the legalization of cadastral documents, securing permanent employment, allocation of material assistance, social support, improvement of utility services quality, and other matters of public importance.
Some appeals were resolved directly during the reception. For issues requiring further study, clear tasks were assigned to the heads of relevant organizations and departments. Orders were issued to responsible persons to ensure execution and resolution of problems within established deadlines, and control over these appeals was established.
It is emphasized that such open dialogues are of great importance for strengthening interaction between the population and state bodies, as well as for promptly identifying and finding solutions to the problems that concern citizens. Special attention is paid to ensuring the legal rights and interests of citizens, given that behind every appeal lies a human need.
In the new Uzbekistan, attention to entrepreneurship is becoming one of the most effective factors not only for economic growth but also for ensuring the well-being of the population, reducing poverty, and stably increasing family incomes. The 'Every Family is an Entrepreneur' program, implemented at the initiative of the President, provides thousands of citizens with the opportunity to start their own businesses, live a decent life through labor, and create new jobs. It is important to note that this program strengthens the spirit of entrepreneurship, diligence, and business, lifting people out of dependency.
Among those who achieve significant results by utilizing opportunities created by the state in various regions of the country is the entrepreneur Anvar Bekboev. He lives in Polvonobod village, Pakhtobod settlement, Shofirkon district, Bukhara province. His life journey serves as a vivid example of how high results can be achieved when state support aligns with personal aspirations.
As part of the state program 'Every Family is an Entrepreneur,' entrepreneur Anvar Bekboev started his business using a preferential loan of 50 million sums. This initial step has turned into a primary and stable source of income for his family.
Currently, the farm maintains 3, 20, and 40-day-old chicks, which are raised using modern technologies. Thanks to special attention to feeding conditions, sanitary requirements, and poultry husbandry processes, productivity has reached high levels. On average, the farm collects 500 eggs daily.
Each egg, which is in high demand in the domestic market, is sold for 500 sums, providing a regular income. However, the entrepreneur did not limit himself to just raising eggs; he advanced his products further down the value chain. Eggs are incubated in modern incubators for 16 days, after which about 250 chicks are produced in each cycle. Chicks are also in demand in the market, forming an additional source of income.
Furthermore, poultry meat, recognized as a dietary and medicinal product, is of great interest to consumers. Each bird raised on the farm sells for an average of 80 thousand sums, and market demand continues to grow.
Most notably, the preferential loan of 50 million sums has today transformed into a profitable business, bringing the family an average net income of 10 million sums per month. These figures convincingly demonstrate that high economic efficiency can be quickly achieved by rationally and purposefully utilizing the opportunities provided by the state.
Upon meeting with the entrepreneur's activities, specialists provided practical recommendations regarding expanding production capacity, increasing product volume, more effective use of modern incubator equipment, creating new jobs, processing products, and actively using additional financial support mechanisms offered by the state.
The reforms being carried out under the President's leadership, aimed at reducing poverty, ensuring employment, and creating sources of income for every family, are finding practical confirmation in such life examples today. Entrepreneurship has ceased to be just a business; it has become a reliable pillar of family well-being, community development, and the country's economy.
It is encouraging that the number of such projects implemented under the 'Every Family is an Entrepreneur' program in the Shofirkon district is growing year by year. This contributes to reducing unemployment in settlements, ensuring population employment, strengthening family economic stability, and further developing the entrepreneurial environment.
