By 2030, preschool education coverage in Kyrgyzstan is expected to reach 80 percent, Chairman of the Cabinet of Ministers of Kyrgyzstan Adylbek Kasymaliev stated during a session of the Zhogorku Kenesh.

According to him, the population of Kyrgyzstan has exceeded 7 million, of whom 257,000 children currently attend preschool institutions.
