Well-deserved award for initiative

The Farghona Regional phase of the “Tashabbus (initiative) - 2017” contest for Presidential awards has taken place in Farghona. 55 entrepreneurs, farmers and craftspeople participated in this phase of the contest. 

Under the leadership of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan, consistent reforms are being implemented to develop the small business and private entrepreneurship sphere, farms and national craftsmanship. 

The share of small businesses and private enterprises in the country’s GDP is rising with every passing year. Farmers’ movement has turned into a decisive force in the agricultural sector. Farms account for nearly all the products that the agricultural sector produces.

This traditional “Tashabbus” contest helps to widely propagate the work of the most active and enterprising people and to provide comprehensive support for them. In the district and town phases of the contest, 925 entrepreneurship entities participated. During the regional phase, an exhibition of industrial and consumer goods produced by entrepreneurs, foodstuffs and items of craftsmanship was arranged.
