Attitude: “I learned people’s life…”

Attitude: “I learned people’s life…”

People who used to practice wresting should know the following rule: wrestler knows the other wrestler by one glance. If you remember Mr. Lee Myon Bak who was the President of South Korea in 2008-2013 and whose book called “Magic does not happen” became popular in our country. In his book the author remembers the meetings with Malaysian and Singaporean state leaders when he was the construction manager at “Hyundai”. Looking at those leaders he admired them and concluded that those countries would prevail Korean development.

It is true that one can surprise Korean with everything, but in order to surprise them working hard one should at least be Malaysian or Singaporean. It was even noted by Sherzodkhon Qudrakhodjayev in his Facebook comment. But our President’s dedication, limitless energy and efforts, love to Motherland, initiative and fruitful new ideas surprised Koreans.

As the proof of the aforesaid idea, last month the 320- pages book under the title “Shavkat Mirziyoyev is The President of Uzbekistan” was introduced to public in Korean language.   

The book analyzes the developments initiated by the President Mirziyoyev. Liberalization of economy, identifying specific measures on attracting and protecting foreign investment, liberalization of foreign currency, strengthening social protection of population, new policy towards provinces, freedom of speech and protection of principles of constitutional rights, overall democratization and liberalization of the society….It was noted that these were the initial results of new developments.

By the way, when hearing about our President visiting various places with a very short time between destinations, people surprise by asking questions “When does this person have a rest?” For example, recently the leader of the country has got acquainted with construction works in Tashkent international airport named after Islam Karimov. The service capacity of the airport is expected to rise up to 1,5 thousand passengers. The project is jointly funded with South Korean bank. The President who closely studied the situation offered his own suggestions on developing the infrastructure.  

“The airport is the entrance to Uzbekistan that’s why it must possess all convenience,” underlined President.

The leader of our country has also visited Tashkent Power Plant, where he participated in the opening ceremony of the new steam-gas block. He pressed the start button of 370 MW steam-gas engine. A number of young specialists who received practical knowledge abroad and in Navoi Power Plant were employed.

The President who visited “Akfa Medline” medical center noted the importance of private medical centers: “If the private medical centers increase, the competition of this market will grow resulting in price decrease. It is very important factor.”

In its turn, the Head of the country gave instructions to establish the branch of South Korean medical institute in our country. As a result the price for the medical services should not increase dramatically.

“I learned the people’s situation. I treated elders as my brothers and young as my sons…” wrote Amir Temur in his “Temur’s collection”.

It is true that a person who studies the reality of ordinary people will receive public affection.

In conclusion, if we take our President’s qualities such as dedication, initiative, hardworking and patriotism as an example and perform our works better then our Motherland will prosper even better.

Pilgrimage Tourism between Uzbekistan and Indonesia enters a new phase of advancement

An event dedicated to the tourism potential of Uzbekistan was organized in Bandung, administrative center of West Java Province, reports Dunyo IA.

The event focused on extensively promoting the rich historical and cultural heritage, alongside the pilgrimage tourism opportunities of Uzbekistan, to the Indonesian public, while aiming to elevate bilateral tourism cooperation between the two nations to a fundamentally new level.

At the outset of the event, detailed insights were provided into the economic and demographic potential of West Java Province. With a population reaching approximately 51 million, this region stands as one of the largest and most economically advanced territories within Indonesia.

The province boasts a dynamic industrial landscape, characterized by the rapid development of the automotive, electronics, textile, chemical, logistics, and service sectors. Concurrently, West Java is widely recognized as a premier center for the Hajj and Umrah services market in Indonesia, driven by its predominantly Muslim population.

During the meeting, it was underscored that West Java is home to hundreds of licensed Hajj and Umrah tour operators, facilitating sacred journeys for hundreds of thousands of citizens annually, with the city of Bandung serving as a crucial religious and educational center. These overarching factors clearly demonstrate the vast, untapped potential for robust cooperation with Uzbekistan in the field of pilgrimage tourism.

The core segment of the event was dedicated to highlighting the paramount role of Uzbekistan's historic cities—Samarkand, Bukhara, Khiva and Termez - in Islamic civilization, showcasing the nation's sacred shrines, the rich heritage of great scholars, and the comprehensive institutional reforms executed in the tourism sector in recent years.

Concurrently, detailed information was provided regarding the modern tourism infrastructure, international standard hospitality networks, transport-logistics capacities, and the comprehensive facilities established for foreign guests.

Special video presentations highlighting the activities of the Center of Islamic Civilization in Uzbekistan and the Imam Al-Bukhari International Scientific Research Center were also showcased. The presentation generated immense interest among the participants.

Speaking at the event, the leadership of the West Java Hajj and Umrah Association emphasized the profound potential for expanding multifaceted cooperation with Uzbekistan. In their view, Uzbekistan stands as a pivotal cradle of Islamic civilization, and the sublime heritage of legendary scholars such as Imam Al-Bukhari, Imam Al-Tirmidhi and Bahauddin Naqshband carries immense spiritual and educational significance for the Indonesian Muslim community.

Furthermore, it was noted that the establishment of direct air connectivity between Jakarta and Tashkent will serve as a catalyst to elevate bilateral tourism cooperation to a fundamentally new level. Leading tour operators in West Java, including prominent agencies such as “DAGO Travel”, are expressing profound interest in the Uzbekistan market. Several operators highlighted their ongoing practice of facilitating travel for hundreds of Indonesian pilgrims to Uzbekistan annually.

The event participants emphasized that comprehensive tour packages encompassing historic cities such as Samarkand, Bukhara, and Termez hold exceptional appeal for Indonesian travellers.

At the conclusion of the event, the participants held detailed discussions on the procedures for traveling to Uzbekistan, visa regimes, air connectivity, hospitality infrastructure, and frameworks for close cooperation with local tour operators. This presentation served as a significant milestone in further expanding bilateral cooperation in the field of pilgrimage tourism, strengthening cultural and humanitarian ties, and driving a substantial increase in the influx of Indonesian tourists to the Republic.
