The government of Kyrgyzstan liberalised foreign access to mining projects and public tenders in the sector.
According to consistent news reports from August and September 2014, the Prime Minister of the Kyrgyz Republic Djoomart Otorbaev has signed a government decree that seeks to improve investment conditions in the mining industry. The document eliminates legal inaccuracies, such as the separation of powers in the conduct of certain types of expertise. It also simplifies the process of participation in tenders and auctions for foreign legal entities.
