President of Kyrgyzstan Sadyr Japarov congratulated the Kyrgyz people on the State Language Day. Press service of the head of state reported.

The President noted that the Kyrgyz language as the state language is one of the main symbols of the statehood of Kyrgyzstan and an attribute of the identity of the people. «Consequently, the language policy is an integral and priority direction of state policy, which obliges each of us to contribute to the development of the Kyrgyz language and its acquisition of a real status of the state one,» he said.
We currently face with the task of achieving full-scale functioning of the state language in all spheres of public life.

Therefore, I call on all citizens of our country to serve for the sake of the prosperity of the state language and all the people without referring to various supposedly unfavorable conditions and circumstances!» the message says.
Development of the state language, improvement and expansion of its use in all spheres of public life require constant attention, tireless work and joint efforts of society and the state.

Let the future of the state language be bright! The sovereign state Kyrgyzstan will also live as long as the state language exists!» Sadyr Japarov said.
