  • UZBEKISTAN In-Depth Review
    UZBEKISTAN In-Depth Review of the Investment Climate and Market Structure in the Energy Sector 2005 Energy Charter Secretariat ENERGY CHARTER SUMMARY AND MAIN FINDINGS OF THE SECRETARIAT Uzbekistan, a Central Asian country located at the ancient Silk Road, is rich in hydrocarbon resources, especially natural gas. Proved gas reserves amount to about 1.85 trillion cubic meters, exceeding the confirmed oil reserves of about 600 million barrels nearly 20-fold on energy equivalent basis. Most of the existing oil and gas fields are in the Bukhara-Kiva region which accounts for approximately 70 percent of Uzbekistan’s oil production. The second largest concentration of oil fields is in the Fergana region. Natural gas comes mainly from the Amudarya basin and the Murabek area in the southwest of Uzbekistan, making up almost 95 percent of total gas production. The endowment with oil and gas offers considerable potential for further economic development of Uzbekistan. Its recent economic performance has been promising, with a GDP growth of above 7 percent in 2004, and an outlook for continuous robust growth in 2005 and beyond. To what extent it can be realised depends crucially on how the government will pursue its policies concerning investment liberalisation and market restructuring, including privatisation, in the energy sector. While the Uzbek authorities recognize the critical role that foreign investment plays for the exploitation of the hydrocarbon resources and the overhaul of the existing energy infrastructure progress has been relatively slow concerning the establishment of a favourable investment climate for many years. However, the Government has recently adopted a far more positive stance that has already brought about tangible results.

It’s surprising to see that most are now linked by high speed ‘Bullet Train’. Elsewhere, Amir Timur - ‘Tamerlane’ - an undefeated military genius from the 15th century, still occupies a revered place in Uzbek psyche, while more recent Soviet icons, even the hammer and sickle motifs on the subway walls, have already faded. Uzbekistan is rightly renowned as a remarkably rich repository for the past. Visiting its outstanding architectural heritage, it’s difficult to be unmoved by beauty inherent in the design and execution of mosques, minarets, mausoleums and madrassas. However, listen too for contemporary tales of national unity over ethnic division, and of political liberalisation over authoritarianism. Uzbekistan already possesses a wealth of history but its story isn’t over.

  • Comparative Analysis of E-Commerce Between China and Uzbekistan
    Comparative Analysis of e-Commerce Between China and Uzbekistan. Kaypnazarov Ubbiniyaz;Prof. Zhang Diping Abstract This research work is devoted for the purpose of showing the diverse opportunities and unravel the growing trends of e-Commerce in terms of trade between China and Uzbekistan. On-line customer research has been carried out mainly for American and European markets by academics and marketers. While e-Commerce is developing more rapidly in China with big companies raking in billions, it is somehow slow in Uzbekistan; a profound understanding of necessitating modalities is a fundamental drive into promoting further growth. This work investigates this intriguing concept in context of e-Commerce involved in inquiring about e-Business and corresponding e-Payment systems in China and Uzbekistan respectively. The article features theoretical segments through which statistical models and correlations were interpolated. The main aim being to establish segmental information and identify influential factors of e-Shopping using e-Payment models developed in the respective countries. The key findings include the geographical influence, demographic statistical analysis and internet technologies being used in the two countries.

The first principle is that the economy takes priority over politics. In other words, economic reforms should be free of any dogma, precepts or outdated stereotypes and should not subject to any ideology. The second principle is that the State is the main reformer. It must determine the main priorities, areas and stages for reform and also draw up and consistently implement public development programmes.

Important historic cities such as Tashkent, Dushanbe, and Ashgabat, join the fabled khanates of Bukhara and Khiva, and incredible archaeological sites such as Merv and Konye-Urgenche. The itinerary doesn’t aim to provide and in-depth exploration of Central Asia, but it does pack an incredible amount into a relatively short time, identifying a culturally rich and varied vein through neighbouring states that survived the wholesale homogenising of the Soviet period to emerge once again. If this is your first experience of Central Asia it won’t be your last.
