By Akmal Mamarahimov is a businessman from Urgench, Khorezm region of Uzbekistan. This year he spent more than $127,000 to overhaul the children’s department of the central hospital.
According to Tashaev – the local mayor, Mamarahimov’s men completely renovated the pediatric ward of the hospital and equipped it with modern furniture, household appliances and medical supplies.
Mamarahimov himself was not present at the commissioning ceremony, as he was involved in the launch of plywood production in Fergana. However, as Tashaev notes, upon his return to Urgench, the businessman promised to allocate funds to also repair the maternity ward and the ambulance station.
In Uzbekistan, it is not uncommon for residents to spend their savings on socially significant facilities. At the end of December last year, with the participation of the heads of villages, two rural schools were opened, built at the expense of local businessmen – $2.23 million and $2.76 million, respectively, were invested in the construction. New schools and an inter-district hospital were also constructed in the Khorezm region in July of this year, and a new highway was erected at the expense of the entrepreneurs called the Pirov brothers.
