And I doubt that RSV will cost a lot in Uzbekistan. I guess author tried to raise to points here. 1 - flourishing alcohol business in a country, where dominant religion is Islam, 2 - the current socio-economic conditions in Uzbekistan, which as everywhere else in the region, is not doing good at all!

World Bank and IMF support my claim. i'm not talking about general situation. Alcohol is bad, i agree. But i can't see here promotion of alcoholism. it's simply an investment from a good quality company, which is good. Yes Uzbekistan is doing quite well in this global crisis !

For the rest, we all know that the promotion of alcoholism is a way for the Kafirov regime to keep the Uzbek population dumb and oppressed. Nothing more or less. “Uzbekistan is actually doing quite well.” :))) If you feel comforted believing this, fine.

Ireland or Germany, Vodka in Uzbekistan is more than that, meaning its status. We certainly drink less, way too less than them. Now, I'm not even going into religion thing. Those who stress country's Muslimness are talking quite a lot of nonsense. Quote from Drinks Media Wire's article: “Demand for HIGH QUALITY [emphasis added] premium vodka continues to increase in Uzbekistan...” said Mykola Kuzemko, Export Director of Russian Standard Vodka. Is this not a GOOD news? People want HIGH QUALITY vodka, this means they have more money to afford it. Can't you see simple logic here? I'm sure Standard Vodka is much better than "samagon"... Besides, socio-economic situation in many countries, especially in the West, is not good. Uzbekistan is actually doing quite well. The growth of the GDP was about 8% in the 1st quarter of 2009. The government, including the president, deserve credit for this. To begin, imagine beer in Czech R. Ireland or Germany, Vodka in Uzbekistan is more than that, meaning its status.
