of the Kyrgyz people.
5.1.2. The guiding principles of the Government will be the creation and
improvement of the necessary conditions for every citizen of the republic to receive
a decent, competitive education, quality health care and the necessary social
support. Equally important is the provision of a valuable foundation for man and
society, which allows the realization of the spiritual, cultural and creative potentia l
of the individual. Such an environment for a productive, full-blooded life of a person
