Presentation on Business

[elDoraDo]

Hi ppl

i am currently being asked to make kind of presentation partly highlighting a business (investment, oth. fields of economy and so on) environment of uzbekistan.

since my major is law (not even bus. law, but public), i am not sure i can do it so well as explaining legal environment of the country. moreover, no time to make a special research on that - it should be done today or early tomorrow.
i just thought it would be better if they had objective but still good impression about uzb. particularly foreign participants of business environment.

so, if you have any presentation or material supporting this, please pm me.
thanks
Plant.
