- During the meeting of the Committee of the Jogorku Kenesh held on February 3, 2026, Deputy Kuvanychbek Kongantieff raised the issue of the feasibility of self-financing salaries for employees of the Ministry of Construction during the government hour.

He noted that such a practice could contribute to the emergence of corruption schemes and monopolization.

“I do not want to accuse you, but it is necessary to pay attention to the risks. Your ministry has control and regulatory functions similar to those of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Prosecutor's Office. However, if they start to finance themselves independently, it could lead to corruption. We have already encountered a similar situation when special accounts were deemed ineffective and abolished,” the deputy emphasized.

This information was presented in the context of discussing the pricing policy for services and work of the Ministry of Construction, Architecture, and Housing and Communal Services of the Kyrgyz Republic, as well as the rising prices in the construction sector.
