"It is necessary to raise living standards in the local level," - said today the Minister of Finance, Akylbek Japarov, in Bishkek at the seminar on "Medium-term program: stability and decent life: improving intergovernmental relations in transition to a two-level budget."
According to him, in the regions and villages, the inhabitants are divided into three classes: the rich, people with average incomes and the poor. "With the transition to two-level budget, local government bodies will have more independence and funding sources. You have to raise and improve the livelihoods of the population, to develop infrastructure. Thus, during one year up to 5 families with low income should go to a higher level. Otherwise, you're fired "- said A.Japarov.
However, the fact that there will be more sources of funding does not mean that there is no control, but rather it will be strengthened. "We must work together. I plan to travel around all regions and in the field to get acquainted with the problems of financial documents. No one going to do our work, but us, the Kyrgyzstan people are waiting for change ", - said the Minister, adding that he will personally appoint the chief accountants of Local self-government
