During the meeting, the status of social, cultural, and industrial facilities being built in the regions under the "National Village Program" was also discussed. The governors of Lebap and Mary regions expressed their gratitude to the Head of State for the newly opened roads and the start of construction on new townships in their regions.
After hearing the reports, Distinguished President Serdar Berdimuhamedov gave several specific instructions:
