Kyrgyzstan to Build Large Residential Complex with IT Hub in Osh

Kyrgyzstan has launched the construction of an IT town as part of the large-scale project, an initiative aimed at transforming Osh, the country’s second-largest city. Speaking at the launch ceremony on February 14, President Sadyr Japarov stated that the project’s main goal is to ensure sustainable regional development through modern technology and large-scale housing construction. The Osh project will include a residential complex with over 10,000 apartments, covering a total area of 1 million square meters. The development will feature modern schools and kindergartens; medical facilities and gyms; pedestrian and bicycle paths; green recreation areas; and children’s playgrounds. A key component of the project, the IT town, will serve as an innovation hub for entrepreneurs and IT specialists, offering modern residential, social, and commercial infrastructure. According to Japarov, the growth of the IT sector will enhance Kyrgyzstan’s global competitiveness, accelerating economic, social, and technological development in Osh and beyond. The initiative is expected to strengthen trade, economic, cultural, and humanitarian ties, while also attracting more foreign tourists. Japarov noted that thousands of jobs will be created during the construction process, helping to reduce migration levels. Once completed, the Osh project will generate employment in housing services, education, healthcare, and the IT industry. The IT town is envisioned as a magnet for IT professionals, drawing specialists from across Kyrgyzstan and abroad.

Shopping Center May Be Built Beneath Bishkek’s Ala-Too Square

Bishkek authorities are moving forward with plans to reconstruct the Manas monument and the underground space beneath it in Ala-Too Square, the capital’s central public space. According to the Bishkek Mayor’s Office, the 1,500-square-meter area beneath the monument is currently unused. According to tender documents published on the government procurement website, the basement beneath Ala-Too Square is set to be redeveloped into retail space. The estimated cost of the reconstruction project is KGS 1.8 million ($20,600). “We want to renovate the basement area - it has been in a dilapidated state since 1983 due to lack of maintenance. As for the future, we are considering various possibilities for the space. However, it is important to clarify that the Manas monument will not be removed,” Bishkek Mayor’s Office spokeswoman Nazgul Zhamgyrchieva told reporters. Despite this reassurance, some Bishkek residents remain concerned, particularly since the Manas monument has already been removed from its pedestal as part of the reconstruction. Many fear it may not be returned to its original place. The monument to Manas, a symbol of Kyrgyzstan’s national heritage, has stood in Ala-Too Square since 2011. Alongside the White House, the National Historical Museum, and the national flag, it forms part of Bishkek’s so-called "marble center", a key landmark in the capital.
