Everyone does not want to waste time, money, health, but is forced to do so it if he is mired in litigation on conflicts that failed to resolve peacefully, all sorts of conflicts. Today they happen everywhere. They sometimegivees rise to the irrepressible desire of people for material values. The desire to take, take possession of someone else’s property by deceit, force, cunning and, conversely, inability and unwillingness to listen to the voice of reason, to the rights of the other party, be it a partner, a neighbor, a relative, give rise to all sorts of disputes, and then litigation. Long and exhausting.

Courts are inundated with lawsuits. All certainly want to win the court and get the coveted. Even if it will take years, decades.

The virus of litigation has spread to all segments of the population It is bogged down with business. And this is undoubtedly one of the reasons for hindering the development of the country’s economy, and also the reasons for pushing investors away from the country. No prudent investor would risk putting them into a campaign steeped in litigation. In this situation, it is comforting only that we are not the first and not the last among the countries that have gone through this. Developed countries have passed this for a long time. They learned to control and stop these processes. We just have to do it, drawing on the experience of such countries.

In countries that managed to overcome the economic crisis, first of all, they learned to peacefully settle disputes and conflicts between citizens and commercial organizations. For example, in Singapore, known to the world for its success, advanced commercial organizations created the Association of Mediators and adopted a charter according to which all disputes between them are resolved through mediation.

The development of commercial mediation in Kyrgyzstan seems to be one of the proven effective ways out of stagnation in the country’s economy. And we have all the prerequisites for the development of this effective institution in our country. So, in February of this year, the Law of the Kyrgyz Republic “On Mediation” came into force. The NGO “Republican Community of Mediators” has been created and effectively operates.

The National Mediation Center has prepared hundreds of mediators and continues to prepare them. Recently, the number of mediators who have mastered the secrets, skills and abilities of conducting commercial mediation based on the experience of European countries has been replenished.

A master class on their training took place the other day in Bishkek. A professional mediator, founder and general manager of the Mediation Center in Crajova, the first president of the Union of Romanian Mediation Centers, Konstantin Adi Gavrila, whose consulting services are used by companies, governments, international organizations in solving a wide range of disputes internationally, taught the master class and introduced our mediators to the secrets of a commercial mediation, spoke about the underwater and visible barriers to the resolution of commercial disputes, ways to overcome them. Role-playing games, the analysis of specific cases of resolving commercial disputes from his personal practice, fully helped our mediators to learn well the lessons of commercial mediation. As it turned out, being able to listen and help disputants find a mutually beneficial way to resolve a dispute, when the parties or one of the parties are trying to carefully veil and hide their true commercial or other interests, this is not an easy science, which will have to be thoughtfully and diligently studied. After all, only with perfect mediation tools, certain skills and abilities of the commercial mediation process can help disputants come to common opinion in resolving the subject of the dispute, thereby helping commercial organizations, their owners and employees to save time, money and health.
