I think the one decision of making different the situation is just decreasing the role of the State in business and other spheres of life, excluding citizens security and a little social care. That's the one only problem-solving mechanism, I think. That's called as "Laissez Fair"...

I noticed the same when I was in Tashkent. One interesting question would be why the situation is that dark right now. What I noticed is the atmosphere of fear at different levels in the country. Let it be some simple people on the street who would not want to say anything loud or people from ministries who just do not say a word because they are afraid of being put in jail. And what about judges? There is the story from a judge in Nukus who had to take a decission in December 2005 if one Uzbek NGO should be closed or not. He found no reason to do so. Some time after the case was reopened and the very same judge closed the NGO. He later told the former NGO director that he did not want to but that he was threatened to be laid of if he didn't. What do you make out of this? The reasons for the petrified social system can be found at the level of the government that does not allow a society to develop as necessary. If corruption is there at every corner and no one from top really takes a stand against it, what do you think will happen? Right, a situation with unemployment raising, depressed people and those who are able to leave will be gone rather sooner than later. Interesting post with many valid points.
