National Strategy Information and Communication Technologies for Development in the Kyrgyz Republic
The achieved level and problems with ICT development in the Kyrgyz Republic determine the necessity to move away from a one-sided policy of just developing communications and information technologies to the formulation of a nation-wide strategy to integrate with the world information society. Given already available technological opportunities, main policy directions could be the formation of the interconnect information space in the country, development of information resources, data bases, knowledge, and information infrastructure, which could be used by both state structures and the general public on the parity basis. This will evolve the development of the informational law, technological facilities, and organization.
