Recently, construction is underway in the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains in Kyrgyzstan. Thousands of kilometers away, Chinese Liugong's steel heavy machinery crossed mountains and headed towards the plateau - the construction site of the China Kyrgyzstan Uzbekistan railway was roaring with machinery, equipment on the frozen soil in the plateau mining area was running day and night, and the urban renewal project by Lake Issyk Kul was steadily advancing. From railway lines to permafrost, from mines to municipal engineering, Chinese construction machinery is deeply involved in the construction and development of Kyrgyzstan with hard core equipment and localized services.

Equipment on railway lines - Iron Army

As one of the main suppliers of construction machinery and equipment for the China Kyrgyzstan Uzbekistan Railway, Liugong has been deeply involved in the project construction. The first batch of loaders will enter the market in 2025, and more loaders and excavators will be invested to undertake earthwork excavation and material loading and unloading operations. Electric engineering machinery products will enter the Central Asian market for the first time. Starting from September 2025, Liugong, in collaboration with local distributors, will continue to conduct equipment inspections to ensure the construction of high-altitude bridges and tunnels. In November, a branch will be officially registered to promote localized operations. The professional level of Chinese technical personnel and the understanding of the environment by local employees complement each other efficiently in each project service.

Joint garrison in high-altitude mining areas

Part of the construction area in the highland mining area in the hinterland of Tianshan Mountains has an altitude of about 4000 meters, and the high altitude and permafrost make the working conditions extremely harsh. Starting from August 2026, local employees such as Jokoyev and Chinese personnel will be stationed together to withstand extreme cold and oxygen deprivation, providing uninterrupted high-intensity construction support for Chinese construction machinery in complex mountainous areas. Liugong has delivered the first batch of equipment to the Karakol Municipal Infrastructure Project, which will be used for road maintenance, municipal construction, environmental governance, and public facility maintenance, providing equipment support for urban operations.

The Central Asian story of people to people connectivity

Local youth Jokoyev, who joined the LiuGong team in February 2026, had almost no knowledge of construction machinery when he joined. Six months later, he had already mastered the mechanical structure and was able to independently provide basic service consulting. He said that Chinese masters teach techniques without reservation and have been like friends with each other day and night. From understanding language to understanding technology, from equipment inspection to high-altitude stationing, this young person is on the path of growth through serving one device after another. XCMG will establish a subsidiary in April 2026 to complete market upgrading, and Shantui will deliver wide body mining trucks to high-altitude mines in August. Chinese equipment manufacturing enterprises are taking root in Kyrgyzstan, continuing to write a new chapter of industrial cooperation and people to people connectivity.Editor/Gao Xue
