		<description>This is a good start but I highly doubt that more loans could make Tajikistan strong economically unless they are indeed chanelled down to the sectors that need those.

The whole idea with loans is a very controversial one. Although one could argue that there is a correlation between the loans and countries GDP growth, I doubt that such aid should be made available to the country in the long run. 

The country needs to take advantage of its cheap labor (perhaps explore the opportunities in the textile industry) and tap into its existing energy (hydropower) and production (aluminum) resources using primarily private sector money and players.

Those guys know how to run an efficient plant and believe me that is one major thing Tajiks need to learn to survive.</description>
