Speculation rife as world waits for Putin to reappear Can there ever have been such importance attached to a planned meeting between the Russian and Kyrgyz presidents, in which they will discuss trade, investment, cultural and humanitarian co-operation? Such is the strange atmosphere in Moscow nowadays that Monday's meeting in St Petersburg - assuming it takes place - will be scrutinised like no other. And all this because there's been no verifiable sighting of the omnipotent and normally omnipresent Vladimir Putin since 5 March. Such a long, unexplained absence from public view has fuelled rumours among the chattering classes here and across the internet, that something is wrong - that the president might be sick or even dead or he could be the victim of a palace coup. With persistent denials from the Kremlin doing little to dampen the speculation, Monday's meeting could be a key moment. Where's Putin? The best of the memes Something untoward If he makes an appearance with his Kyrgyz counterpart, Almazbek Atambayev, in front of plenty of journalists and television cameras, it would at least quash the rumours that he is either dead or seriously ill, especially if the broadcast is live. But if not the rumour mill is likely to crank up into an even higher gear. The suspicions that there is something untoward happening behind the Kremlin's thick, red walls have been heightened by the way government officials themselves have responded Hope news will be forthcoming shortly, Have a good week all ATB F

WORLD LEADERS IN GOLD DEPOSITS Throughout history, no mineral has enjoyed more universal value or appeal than gold. It is as precious for its beauty as it is as a hedge in troubled markets. Gold is a leading export of both the Kyrgyz Republic and Uzbekistan, and is mined in Kazakhstan and Tajikistan as well. The region's largest deposits are in the middle and southern Tien Shan gold belt in the Kyrgyz Republic and Uzbekistan. Other major deposits are found in the Makmal gold mining complex and the Sary-Dzhasskiy, Soltan-Sary, and Terek-Sayskiy gold mines. Uzbekistan's open pit Muruntau gold mine in the Central Kyzylkum area contains one of the largest deposits in the world. Other significant gold deposits are located in the nearby Amantaytau goldfields, and the Zarmitan field in Samarkand. In 2006, Uzbekistan ranked among the world's top 10 gold producers.

(Contd) She says there are two issues that need to be addressed: companies and the government have to be transparent about ecological risks and harmful emissions into the air; and the government should constantly provide the population with fresh information about its plans in the mining industry. Kyrgyz MP Erkingul Imankojayeva, who has recently raised the Kumtor gold mine issue at a parliament sessions, says there is documented proof that the waste products from gold mining industry end up in the air and then on nearby glaciers. ‘This leads to reduction of glaciers by 61 meter a year, and the melting water goes to the Petrova Lake. This in its turn could lead to a flooding, which could wash away the nearby radioactive tailing and bring it all to the river that locals use for drinking water and daily needs,” she says. Following Imankojayeva’s report to the parliament the government creates a state commission to investigate ecological impact of Kumtor and other operating gold mines Lets hope for some positive news soon ATB F
Kyrgyzstan Hopes Gold Will Save its Economy Published by Bakyt IbraimovDecember 16, 2014 Burdened by multiple financial problem, Kyrgyzstan is looking for ways to improve its economy. The country hopes gold deposits will help solve economic problems, but analysts say the gold industry has its own problems to tackle. Gold to save Kyrgyzstan “Kyrgyzstan has significant gold deposits, and if we use them properly, we will be on the way to prosperity,” Sherimkul Sultanov, State Secretary of the State Agency for Geology and Mining Resources, said at a country-wide mining conference in Bishkek November 28. “Currently our difficulties in the gold mining industry are connected not only with the mountainous landscapes, but also because the population in the deposits region has propensity to conflicts,” he added. According to State Agency for Geology and Mining Resources, Kyrgyzstan’s explored gold deposits are about 566 tons (), and one third of the country’s export products is gold. Kyrgyzstan has 30 large and small gold deposits, including Kumtor, Makmal, Togolok, Bozumchak. Conflicts around Gold Deposits Gold mining industry has always been surrounded by multiple conflicts, Duisheyev says, adding that he doesn’t exclude that certain politicians in Kyrgyzstan have their interests in this sphere and therefore push foreign investors away. This is the reason why other gold deposits, such as Andash and Jerui, haven’t been explored yet, he adds. The conflicts and protests around gold mines are often organized by local residents, but Kyrgyz media has reported on a number of occasions, that in some of the conflicts local business owners and politicians were behind. Another large gold deposit surrounded by conflicts is Taldybulak-Levoberezhny, which, according to geologists, has about 78 tons of gold and is being explored by Chinese investors (Chinese invested $184 million so far). Despite numerous conflicts Kyrgyzstan plans to start exploring its Jerui deposit in the spring of 2015. Activists Concerned about Ecology Locals are often protesting gold mining due to their concerns about the harm from the industry to the air and the land. Kyrgyz ecologists say they are concerned exploring gold deposits is dangerous for the country’s ecology. Independent Kyrgyz environmentalist Dinara Kutmanova says any kind of technogenic impact on environment, including the one during mining activities, could have a crucially negative influence on the region. “All these risks can and must be minimized, but, since the government doesn’t impose any control over it, it’s dangerous, and people also aren’t provided any information about Kumtor, and this causes quite a stir among the population,” she says.

Prime Minister speaks about forming of ratings for efficiency and quality of respond of government agencies to publication 11/03/15 07:20, Bishkek – 24.kg news agency, by Anastasia BENGARD Prime Minister Dzhoomart Otorbaev discussed with Mayor Kubanychbek Kulmatov development indicators of Bishkek for 2014 and outlined plans for 2015, the press service of the Cabinet reported. According to it, the Prime Minister recalled the recent visit of delegation from Tatarstan to the Kyrgyz Republic, which shared the successful experience of interaction with the citizens, in particular, the introduction of "People's control", allowing to keep in touch and to respond to the comments of residents. "This is a very convenient system. Citizen captures any violations or deficiencies in the work of municipal services or government agencies, and sends these materials to online publications, and municipal and state authorities immediately react to these publications. We also asked popular publications to make separate headings, where citizens could share photos and videos on the traffic situation, the safety, work of municipal services. State agencies tasked with timely and accurately respond to these publications. In the near future we and interested publications will create appropriate ratings for efficiency and quality of responses that will motivate state authorities to maintain a dialogue with the population," Dzhoomart Otorbaev said. He noted that the main criterion of the government is to increase public confidence. URL: http://www.eng.24.kg/economics/174861-news24.ht

Integration: what government.kg is silent 11/03/15 07:35, Bishkek – 24.kg news agency, by Tatyana KUDRYAVTSEVA Kyrgyzstan is on the verge of an important historical event. In May, the country prepares to join the Eurasian Economic Union officially. The country's leadership is trying to complete all the procedures as soon as possible. Kyrgyz people are promised "land of milk and honey." But Kyrgyzstanis, learned through a series of painful incidents, treat to these promises with caution. And for a reason. The first session of the Eurasian Economic Council at the level of Heads of Government was held in Moscow on February 6, 2015. Among other issues it discussed draft protocols provided by the agreement on accession of Kyrgyzstan to the Eurasian Economic Union. The Kyrgyz Republic still had discrepancies with the Eurasian Economic Union countries and the Eurasian Economic Commission for six key issues. Of these three issues are of strategic and social character With the accession to the Eurasian Economic Union, we, apparently, will have to learn to live within our means.

With the price of gold as it is in $', it is not that profitable to mine yet. We have reached global peak production for gold. As with oil, we will see some small to medium, financially, overstretched outfits being scooped up in fire sales by bigger companies. Now, here's the good news. Gold is up against most currencies and is nearly holding it's own against a strong $. The $ is strong, because global currencies are in devaluation mode. While the $ is seen as a safe haven for investors with the possibility of a rate rise. It won't happen. This year, we will see the $ retreat on no interest rate increase. Don't forget, we have an election coming. Volatility if UKIP does well with it being anti EU. Then the expected fed interest rise that won't happen. Ukraine has just had news of an IMF bailout in SDR's, these can be converted into any currency. More than likely $'s. SDR's were set up in 1969 I think. We will see more of them, with the financial and global turmoil. Now we have reached gold peak production, there will be a decline in available gold to buy. This will cause a pressure on the manipulated downwards price of gold to stop. It may still drop a little further. Watch the $ in the next few months. No interest rise, $ down and gold up. Hold tight.

Investor. Between a rock and a hard place 27/02/15 11:29, Bishkek – 24.kg news agency, by Anton LYMAR The policy has become a major obstacle between the economy and investment in Kyrgyzstan. Prolonged systemic crisis, eternally deficient treasury, the lack of own funds for the development of production - a characteristic pattern of Kyrgyzstan. Source of closing off the loopholes as external borrowing doesn't satisfy exorbitant itch for money - give less, but the external debt is over $3 billion and is approaching the critical point in a percentage of GDP. As a result, we have to rely on a miracle, or the mass arrival of investors. Where are you, my darling? Where? There is no sense to hope at the first one, and with the second - very serious problems. Moreover, according to Economy Minister Temir Sariev, outflows from Kyrgyzstan increased by 2 times in 2014. All major projects made by the Government, especially in the mining industry, are still not running. Nevertheless, external infusion remains for Kyrgyzstan hardly the only means for the resuscitation of the economy. According to Deputy Prime Minister Valery Dil, under favorable conditions the republic could annually attract $6.5 billion of foreign investment. There are many reasons why no one comes to us with suitcases of money. In fact one should compete for investors on the world market. And then, like, we are not that bad. For example, the economy of Kyrgyzstan is recognized by the US Research Center - the Heritage Foundation as "moderately free". We are on the 82nd place, next to Latvia, Kazakhstan, Armenia, Azerbaijan. Moreover, the country has a very high score for fiscal freedom. And in some other ratings it seems to be not that bad. There are many interesting projects constantly presenting by the government. The number of licenses drastically reduced, changes to the licensing system were made. Even prepared bread and salt for investors, but... eat the delights of the Kyrgyz economy still no one hurries. 120 Men Theater So, we're kind of fixed the mechanism, painted, but can't launch it. Here another problems appear, namely our internal scrapes, which the higher echelons don't want to pay attention, or gave up long time ago. The main of them - inability of the government and the parliament to work in harmony. "In the case of Kyrgyzstan, it is not about confrontation of power and the investor, but the confrontation of the legislative and executive branches of government, hostage of which became foreign investors," - such conclusion was made by analysts of Minchenko consulting communications holding in the report "Assessing political risk for foreign investors in Central Asia." It turns out that launching a mechanism for attracting investment in Kyrgyzstan requires coordinated work of parliament and government, or withdrawal of the parliament from total interference in the work of the Cabinet .
