President of Islamic Republic of Afghanistan Cities should be livable not only in terms of their physical structure but also socially and culturally. We must remove outdated bureaucratic hurdles and red tape, and formulate the right policies for urban planning and housing. Urban affairs have been the focus of our attention during the past years, and we now have the opportunity of practical implementation. Development of affordable housing will not be exclusive to the civilian sector, affordable housing will be extended to the personnel of all Army Corps. Referring to the fact that cities and villages underpin the nation, work on strengthening ties between cities and villages has been initiated, and ties between cities and villages feature in our planning for strengthening a national marketplace. CEO of Capital Region Independent Development Authority The absence of sound urban environment in the Capital of the country has caused this city with huge challenges, where considering its insignificant concentrated commercial and service centers, the population increases, along with the graph of problems also moves upward. Therefore, to address the issue, the solution should be mainstreamed in the capital region including Kabul, Parwan, Kapisa, Maidan Wardak and Logar Provinces. Capital Region Independent Development Authority (CRIDA) is established with the vision to lay down strong platform to address the current issues through rehabilitating the originality of capital zone, by developing a dynamic, self-sustained, self-reliant city, equipped with standardized infrastructure, public facilities, commercial, social and cultural centers.
