Bishkek, Oct. 21, 2020 / Kabar /. For 30 years Kyrgyzstan has gone through 3 revolutions, which were caused by dishonest elections, Acting President, Prime Minister Sadyr Zhaparov told in an interview with the BBC Kyrgyz Service.
He noted that his goal is to conduct fair elections by any means through ballots or e-mail.
“I instructed the Central Election Commission to introduce the blockchain system. It will cost approximately USD 25 million. These funds are now being sought. The blockchain system will be implemented, perhaps we are in time for the upcoming elections. If not, then we will definitely introduce them to the next ones. The main advantage of blockchain in the voting system is its high level of transparency. This method eliminates the possibility of voting several times, since it stores immutable records of all votes and all identification data,” Zhaparov said.
According to acting President Zhaparov, this system cannot distort the election results.
“It takes time to introduce this system. But I will leave, having introduced this system, after that there should be no problems with elections. We will get rid of problems with unfair elections,” Zhaparov said.
