Since its inception, \u201cSAN Service\u201d has gained global recognition for its excellence in public service and social innovations and quickly evolved into Azerbaijan\u2019s unique intellectual property,\u201d Mr Mehdiyev told President Museveni who welcomed the idea.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are already working on it, but I am told that you are more advanced. So, we will be very happy to welcome that center here. I will be very happy with Mr Aliyev (the President of Azerbaijan) to lay the foundation stone for that centre,\u201d President Museveni said.<\/p>\n<p>The word \u201casan\u201d means \u201ceasy\u201d in Azerbaijani and according to Chairman Mehdiyev, they are already cooperating with around 20 countries about the replication of the Azerbaijani model of \u201cASAN service\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Mehdiyev informed the meeting that on September 2018, Uganda and Azerbaijan concluded a Memorandum of Understanding for implementing the Azerbaijani \u201cASAN Service\u201d experience in Uganda and since then \u201cASAN service\u201d and the Ministry of Public Service have engaged in close cooperation to organise mutual visits for collaborative growth.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe establishment of the ASAN concept is a reform in the field of public administration. Implementation of this reform in Uganda through your strong political will and support will be the next valuable contribution to the further development of the welfare of the Ugandan people,\u201d Mr Mehdiyev noted, adding that a modern ASAN-based Service Uganda Centre can be established and the inauguration ceremony may be held by the participation of the leaders of both countries within the framework of the Non- Aligned Movement (NAM) Kampala Summit.<\/p>\n<p><b>January meeting<\/b><\/p>\n<p>President llham Aliyev of the Republic of Azerbaijan is expected in Uganda to attend the 19th Summit of the NAM Heads of State and Government in Kampala next year.<\/p>\n<p>During the summit, which will take place in January, President Museveni will take over the chairmanship of the organisation from the President of Azerbaijan, Ilham Aliyev.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/uganda\">Uganda<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Uganda.
