"After spending a few days in the Republic of Karakalpakstan, the Fergana Valley, I got to know the situation more closely. In the activities of a Children's and youth sports School and a Specialized Children's and Youth sports school, in the system of professional development of specialists working there, in carrying out their certification, there are enough issues waiting to be resolved. We have a plan to create a Fund that will work with issues of increasing the motivation of coaches, fully providing sports schools with equipment, holding more competitions to increase the level of mass sports. After discussing this issue with the leadership of the Ministry of Finance, we found a positive solution”"
Among the competitions of this year, the Asian Games, which will be held in China, are of particular importance. Adham Ikramov said that he will work separately with the Federations to prepare for the main start of the year.
"We will consider in detail all issues with the Federations based on the schedule. Before demanding results from Federations, we must pay special attention to what they need. Only after we study all their problems and find a solution to them can we demand a result. I do not ask anything from the Federations other than these requirements. There is very little time left before the Asian Games in Hangzhou. If we fail to perform well at them, we will lose the trust of our state and our people in us. NOC officials have extensive experience in sports management. I am sure that in mutual solidarity we will cope with the tasks set," the Minister of Sports Development said.
