BISHKEK, Aug. 31 (Xinhua) — Kyrgyzstan celebrates Independence Day on August 31.
This year, the main ceremonial event dedicated to the 34th anniversary of the country's independence, with the participation of Kyrgyz President Sadyr Japarov, took place the day before in the city of Jalal-Abad in the south of the country. The celebration began with the presentation of a documentary film reflecting the path of the formation of Kyrgyz statehood. Then a theatrical performance "Kelechektegi Kyrgyzstan" /"Kyrgyzstan of the Future"/ was shown with the participation of about 600 artists.
After this, the head of Kyrgyzstan delivered a congratulatory message on the eve of Independence Day.
In his speech, as reported by the presidential press service, S. Japarov noted that the Independence Day has been celebrated in different regions every year – previously it was held in the fertile Chui Valley, then in the ancient city of Osh, and now in the flourishing city of Jalal-Abad. According to him, the decision to celebrate the holiday in each region is a sign of equal attention to the seven regions of the country, confirmation that Kyrgyzstan is "a single independent state, without division into the center and regions."
The evening ended with performances by Kyrgyz and foreign pop singers.
