Bishkek: The new course for the implementation of digital technologies in all areas of public administration, as well as in all spheres of life should have the effect of achieving the maximum result, to prevent, above all, corruption and to achieve a simplification, but at the same time a reliable result. Another goal is integration with global digital processes, which will simplify economic and commercial tasks. One more important goal of digitalization is accessibility and comfort for the citizens of Kyrgyzstan, who will be able to solve many of their problems and tasks without leaving home.
“This is especially urgent during a crisis like the one that happened this year. The coronavirus infection and the subsequent pandemic of the disease paralyzed all livelihoods and routines. The population is already ready to buy household appliances and electronics, order and purchase medicines, and pay for utilities through digital technology. The convenience and comfort created by the implementation of digitalization can also provide personal security, but digital security will have to be thought of by those in charge. The world has long seen the growth of Internet influence, the development of social networks and, accordingly, individuals who are engaged in so-called hacker attacks. Digitalization in Kyrgyzstan is only at the beginning of its path, but in parallel it is necessary to develop a set of measures to protect the personal data of citizens and many other things, including state financial and strategic departments and institutions,” a high-tech specialist and IT engineer Ruslan Abishev noted.
Last week, Acting Prime Minister, First Deputy Prime Minister of the Kyrgyz Republic Artem Novikov held a meeting on the progress of digitalization of tax administration procedures.
“The initiative initially faced ambitious and serious tasks. After all, when Kyrgyzstan was launching digitalization, focus was not only on achieving comfortable conditions for the population. The tasks were set much higher. Digital technology was to help solve complex issues of an economic nature, tax services, and the introduction of digitalization at all checkpoints in Kyrgyzstan was to increase the efficiency of all services without exception. – PNP
