  • Uzbekistan Three Local Airports Modernization Project Field Survey
    Uzbekistan Three Local Airports Modernization Project Field Survey: November 2003 1. Project Profile & Japan’s ODA Loan Uzbekistan Urgench Tashkent Turkmenistan Kyrgyzstan Samarkand Bukhara Tajikistan Afghanistan Project site Runway at Samarkand Airport 1.1 Background Under the division of labor system employed by the former Soviet Union Uzbekistan was positioned as a supplier of mineral resources and agricultural produce. In consequence, its external transport routes by rail, road and air, had basically been developed under Moscow-centric networks. With Uzbekistan’s air traffic, the majority of airports were decrepit, with problems including some cracking on runways, reductions in the reliability of air traffic control and safety systems, and difficulties securing spare parts for repairs. The airports were also failing to conform to the technical standards of ICAO (the International Civil Aviation Authority), the global benchmark for air safety. In addition, the economic turmoil that followed the breakup of the former Soviet Union in 1991 resulted in a sharp decline in passenger traffic in Uzbekistan. The country is the epicenter of Silk Road tours, and the three cities of Samarkand, Bukhara and Khiva (on the outskirts of Urgench) have flourished as oasis towns along the Silk Road and have a wealth of world-class tourist attractions. In 1997, the Uzbekistan government held celebrations to mark the 2,500th anniversary of Bukhara and Khiva with the aim of utilizing the nation’s resources to grow the tourist industry. Efforts to promote tourism were hampered by insufficient terminal facilities at the airports in the aforementioned three cities, and the airlines of various countries were experiencing difficulties flying into the airports due to the significant problems outlined above.

  • Uzbekistan 2018 International Religious Freedom Report
    UZBEKISTAN 2018 INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM REPORT Executive Summary The constitution provides for freedom of religion or belief and separation of government and religion. In May the parliament approved a religious freedom “roadmap” to implement all twelve of the recommendations of UN Special Rapporteur on Religion or Belief Ahmed Shaheed. It simplified rules for registering religious organizations and their reporting requirements. The government established a consultative body – the Council of Faiths – as a platform for discussing issues with 17 recognized religious groups. Through presidential pardons, the government released 185 prisoners convicted on religious extremism charges. In September the Muslim Spiritual Directorate of Uzbekistan dismissed Imam Parpiev for diverging from his government-approved sermon. For the first time in eight years, the government registered a church, Svet Miru, run by a Presbyterian religious community in Chirchick, near Tashkent. The Jehovah’s Witnesses reported a significant drop in police harassment of their members: 114 cases compared with 240 in 2017. According to multiple sources, until late in the year, police continued to raid unregistered religious group meetings, detain participating individuals, conduct legal and illegal searches, and seize outlawed religious materials from private residences. One raid was reported following the government’s announcement in December it would halt raids on religious groups. Courts continued to sentence detained individuals to fines and prison; however, for the first time, higher courts overturned some of these sentences. Members of religious groups whose registration applications the government denied remained unable to practice their religious beliefs without risking criminal prosecution. Authorities fined members of some groups, including unregistered Jehovah’s Witnesses, for engaging in collective worship and other religious activities.
