Yesterday, on April 26, Deputy Chairman of the Cabinet of Ministers Edil Baisalov held a meeting with representatives of more than 50 non-governmental and non-profit organizations of the country. This was reported by the government's press service.
Edil Baisalov noted that the Kyrgyz Republic highly appreciates the significant contribution of NGOs and non-profit organizations in promoting the development of democratic institutions and civil society in our country.
The main topic of discussion was the recently adopted amendments to the law on NGOs and their further implementation in the work of these organizations, defining the main directions of future cooperation.
The Deputy Head of the Cabinet assured the meeting participants that the provisions currently being developed by the Ministry of Justice are aimed at ensuring the rights and freedoms of citizens and their associations, non-profit organizations, and active participation in public life.
"The most important thing is that all rights and freedoms, opportunities for open participation in political activities are preserved. The head of state has mentioned this several times. The only requirement is to register and be included in the registry. This is a common practice worldwide," he said.
There will be no persecution or restrictions on activities. We are interested in your successful work for the benefit of our republic.
During the meeting, representatives of non-profit organizations expressed their proposals and recommendations.
