Forward Kyrgyzstan Party
Forward, Kyrgyzstan! was a political party in Kyrgyzstan. The party was founded in September 2003 as a merger of four parties. According to Azattyk Ünalgysy, the Forward Kyrgyzstan Party is considered a party of power. The chairman of the party was Bolot Begaliev but one of its notable founders was Bermet Akayeva, eldest daughter of then-President Askar Akayev; per OSCE, Akayeva was deemed the informal leader of the party. In the 2005 Kyrgyz parliamentary election, the party won 17 seats. While Akayeva did not run as a candidate of the party, she did get elected to parliament.
The party was formed from the merger of four separate parties: Manas El, Jany Kyymyl, Jany Zaman, and the Party of Cooperators. On 8 December 2003, the Birimdik Party decided to merge with the party.
Following the 2005 Tulip Revolution that overthrew Askar Akayev, the future of the party was unclear.
