Market View: Uzbekistan as a market, Areas of collaboration with Singapore firms, What can Singapore firms expect when entering Uzbekistan?

You might be wondering why we are talking about Uzbekistan, and that’s because Uzbek President Shavkat Mirziyoyev was here in Singapore recently on his first state visit to the country. During his visit, both countries agreed to work on the promotion of bilateral economic relations.
