Policy Brief on Civil Aviation

A new CAREC Institute Policy Brief discusses the development of the civil aviation industry in selected six CAREC member countries—Georgia, Kazakhstan, the Kyrgyz Republic, Mongolia, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan. With significant economic progress in the six countries, especially the rapid development of tourism and high-value industrial systems, civil aviation markets continue to flourish, and the performance of the civil aviation industry is steadily rising.

At the same time, the development of the civil aviation industry in the six countries faces many challenges such as an inadequate legal system, weak competition, insufficient market, lack of financing capacity, low management efficiency, insufficient talent, low openness, poor connectivity between countries within CAREC region, imbalance, widening development gap in the civil aviation sector in six countries.

In the future, further liberalization of civil aviation control, promotion of a high level of open development of the civil aviation sector, and acceleration of the establishment of a regional civil aviation market will be critical measures to accelerate the modernization of the civil aviation industry in all six countries.
