The UAE and Uzbekistan have announced a new phase of their strategic partnership for government modernisation, introducing ten vital sectors under a bilateral memorandum of understanding (MoU) signed to promote exchange of knowledge, expertise and successful experiences.
The expanded strategic partnership signed by the UAE and Uzbekistan covers 27 sectors, involving initiatives in government modernisation to benefit from the UAE’s experience and promote the relations between the two nations.
The announcement was made as President of Uzbekistan Shavkat Mirziyoyev received Mohammad bin Abdullah Al Gergawi, minister of cabinet affairs, and a UAE government delegation in Tashkent to review the achievements stemming from the strategic partnership for government modernisation between the two sides, WAM reported.
The MoU, signed by Al Gergawi and Sardor Umurzakov, deputy prime minister and minister of investment and foreign trade of Uzbekistan, is to extend for three years the strategic partnership agreement for government modernization launched by the two sides in April 2019.
The new areas covered under the expanded partnership include smart applications, government services, government accelerators, capacity-building strategy and national plan.
Government performance and quality, business incubators, tourism, economy, industry, doing business and ‘One Million Uzbek Coders’ initiative are among other areas covered under the MoU.
Areas of cooperation in the strategic partnership agreement have been updated to include the financial sector, education sector, economy, government leadership, food security and agriculture and ports and customs.
Extending the strategic partnership is reflective of the distinguished relations between the two governments, and builds on the success achieved through the partnership launched in April 2019, with the aim of developing institutional capabilities and enhancing their efficiency by benefiting from the best experiences and advanced government models developed by the UAE government.
