Last week, the director of Good Neighbors Kyrgyz Republic awarded scholarships to the best students in Talas region. This scholarship programme is initiated by a private sponsor from South Korea. Once a year, the Talas city administration draws up a list of the students who have performed best in their studies at the end of the academic year. Every year we provide scholarships and certificates, as well as a set of stationery, to talented and clever children from underprivileged families. This year, 30 schoolchildren were the recipients of the scholarships. We hope that the children will make better use of the awards and contribute to the development of education in the Kyrgyz Republic in the future.
