Adylbek Kasymaliev Congratulates Kyrgyzstan’s Water Management Workers on Their Professional Holiday

Adylbek Kasymaliev praised Kyrgyzstan’s water management workers as the people behind a sector that reaches every region, industry and household, even if much of its work goes unseen.

In a message published by the Cabinet’s press service, Kasymaliev said water management supports life, labor, production and prosperity. He described the preservation, proper management and efficient use of water resources as a responsibility not only for the country’s present, but also for its future.

Kasymaliev noted that Kyrgyzstan’s water management sector has more than a century of history. Over that period, specialists, engineers, builders and workers constructed canals, reservoirs and hydraulic facilities, creating a system that delivers water to fields, people and the economy.

Water management, although often unseen, is a particularly important sector connected to every field, every region and every family in the country.

He said the government was giving particular attention to the sector’s development. New canals and reservoirs are being built, water facilities reconstructed and infrastructure upgraded. The work is intended to increase water storage and efficiency, expand irrigated land and strengthen the country’s water security.

The message also pointed to the introduction of modern technology and digital solutions for measuring, monitoring, distributing and managing water. Kasymaliev said new equipment would help authorities maintain facilities, clean canals, respond quickly to emergencies and conduct irrigation seasons more effectively.

He also emphasized the importance of higher wages, better working conditions and greater respect for the profession. Climate change, shrinking glaciers, water shortages and growing demand for water, he said, are creating new challenges and making every drop more valuable.

Where there is water, there is life; where there is water, there is labor, production and prosperity.
