In a recent development, Kurmanukul Zulushev has been elected as the President of the Kyrgyzstan Kok-Boru Federation, as announced on the organization's social media pages. The decision was made during an extraordinary meeting of the federation.
Former President Ramis Zhunusaliyev, who had been in office since October 2023, expressed his willingness to step down if Zulushev could take control of the construction of a new hippodrome. International Kok-Boru Federation President Kurmanukul Zulushev agreed to this condition, with the majority of delegates supporting his candidacy.
Additionally, Ramis Zhunusaliyev has been appointed as the first vice president, while Zulushev has increased the number of vice presidents in the federation from two to five. This reshuffle in leadership positions marks a new chapter for the Kyrgyzstan Kok-Boru Federation under Zulushev's presidency.
