as a whole and a proper level of protection against threats to public order and crime.
The ability of the government to precisely and uniformly establish the rule of law
in response to manifestations of crime and violations of the rule of law continues to
be questioned.
5.7.4. A significant number of citizens continue to experience difficulties with
access to justice related to weak mechanisms of protection and restoration of
violated rights in legal proceedings, low quality of legal aid, slow execution of
judgments. As a consequence, against the backdrop of a low legal culture of citizens,
which includes both the justification of lawlessness and not always functioning
mechanisms for ensuring justice, the threats of organized crime, violent extremism
and terrorism, growing social tensions and conflict potential are growing noticeably.
Goal and vision
5.7.1. The most important priority is to ensure security and fairness for all

exemplary ethics of behavior should become the hallmarks of a new modern image

environment for the person, including protection from terrorist, extremist threats,
and will provide effective protection of citizens and borders. At the same time, the
Government will continue work on delimitation and demarcation of the state border.
5.7.5. Kyrgyzstan must also achieve genuine independence of the courts,
which is confirmed by the high level of trust and support of citizens and recognition

different level, characterized by independence, transparency and efficiency, should
give impetus to the development of all spheres of people's livelihoods, the
competitiveness of the economy and the strengthening of the foundation of
statehood.
Priority measures
5.7.1. Within the next five-year development cycle, for the protection of the
individual and the maintenance of public order, the restructuring of the law
enforcement system will continue, despite possible internal resistance.
5.7.2. Within the framework of the powers of the Government, law
enforcement reform will continue, including structural and functional
