Every year, 40,000 to 70,000 people die from rabies worldwide. The regions most affected are Asia, Africa, and Latin America. According to the WHO, rabies ranks fifth among infectious diseases in terms of economic damage.It is an acute viral disease that affects both humans and animals.Without timely treatment and preventive measures, the disease is 100% fatal for both humans and animals; there is no cure.The main carriers of this disease are carnivores: foxes (corsacs), wolves, bears, and Arctic foxes. Domestic animals that can carry the disease include dogs, cats, horses, sheep, and cattle. Birds that can carry it include kites, crows, hawks, and owls.A sick animal is a source of infection for humans, both during the disease itself and during the incubation period (latent period). The rabies virus is found in the saliva of a sick animal; infection occurs through contact between a person and a sick animal: bites, drooling, scratches, and other damage to the skin and mucous membranes increase the risk of infection; aerosol transmission of the virus is also possible. Household items and the surrounding area can also be contaminated. Once the virus enters the body (human or animal), it travels rapidly through the nerve endings to the brain, where it multiplies and destroys it.A characteristic sign of animal disease is a change in behavior: wild animals are not afraid of people, enter populated areas, become affectionate, and allow themselves to be petted. Domestic animals become aggressive, attack, bite, and scratch their owners and other animals. Drooling and hydrophobia (animals may experience convulsions at the sight of water) are observed, and paralysis develops. Animal carcasses are burned; relatively healthy animals are monitored and vaccinated. Disinfection is carried out in all areas where livestock were kept.To prevent rabies in domestic animals, they should not be allowed to interact with stray or wild animals.Rabies is too terrifying a disease to be treated carelessly. Remember this and seek medical attention promptly! State Institution "Mendykarinskaya RTI KVKiN MAS RK", Borovskoye village, Altynsarin Street 83, tel.: 2-40-94.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/kostanai-mendykarin-audany-akimat/press/news/details/1111186?lang=kk

This year, the city is implementing the "Aykyn" project for the first time in the field of education. 5.7 billion tenge has been allocated from the local budget for it. These funds will be used to upgrade computer cables in schools. It will help improve internet speed. Currently, some schools are experiencing a drop in internet speed. The fault lies primarily with worn cables. There are 4,205 cameras operating in schools. As part of the project, the administration will purchase another 9,021 surveillance cameras. Each classroom in the educational institution will be equipped with a camera. Including the gym, there are 8,230 classrooms in the city's schools. 829 of them are connected to the camera service. Now the company that won the tender will install cameras in all the remaining classrooms. The contractor will also replace the more than four thousand existing cameras that have failed. The surveillance devices will be controlled by artificial intelligence. If a violation of the law occurs in a classroom, the data received by the camera will be immediately sent to the operational management service of the police department. According to G. Daribaeva, specialists from the methodological center at the department can monitor lessons in any school classroom online using the camera. "At the same time, the Kundelik kz. system sends warnings to the director, his deputy, and the teacher. For example, if an English teacher spends 5 minutes on the phone during a 45-minute lesson, talks to someone for 20 minutes, or gives homework to children without explaining the lesson, a warning is sent when the Kundelik kz. platform is opened. A message condemning the teacher's actions is published there. Artificial intelligence monitors everything through cameras and sends it to Kundelik kz. This message also goes to the director and his deputy. The director can call the teacher and warn him for not performing his duties properly or hold him accountable for other responsibilities. The new project is being implemented for the first time in Shymkent. But it seems that this practice has been around for some time in other regions. We tested it last year. We installed cameras controlled by artificial intelligence in the corridors of two schools in the city. Through this, the department's specialists monitored every disorder. We even determined the mood of the children with the help of artificial intelligence. "This child is not in a good mood, he is sad. The school psychologists conducted special work with the student, who was indicated by the AI as being depressed. Thus, we strengthened the duties of the specialists responsible for the psychological state of the students. We conducted an initial experiment with monitoring using artificial intelligence. The result is not bad. Now we will see how it will work on a city-wide scale. Although the new project will not revolutionize the education sector of the metropolis, it is clear that it will lead to some changes. We are confident that through monitoring, the quality of teachers' work will improve and the level of education of students will increase. A teacher who knows that there is a camera on his ceiling will conduct a 45-minute lesson in accordance with the requirements, and student misbehavior will also decrease in the classroom," said Gulnara Turdybaykyzy. With the help of this project, it is possible not only to improve the quality of education, but also to eliminate bullying among students. The state allocates funds to provide each student with a hot meal. It is called the "Social Wallet". To control the targeted spending of the funds from this wallet, the department is implementing an information and software complex. Under this system, the state pays money based on the number of children who eat a hot meal. An entrepreneur who rents a school canteen only provides food and prepares meals based on the number of children who come. For example, if the state allocates money for a hundred children, it does not care whether they all eat. Another child would take the place of a student who did not come. Now, with the new system, funds are specifically considered only for children who eat. Thus, the ABC is expected to be very useful for saving money. The information and software complex is implemented using artificial intelligence. With the ABC, it is possible to determine the number of children who come to the library and accurately calculate the statistics on the use of library services by students.

Vienna, 21 November 2025 – At the meeting of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Board of Governors, it was officially announced that Kazakhstan has joined the IAEA Far East Regional Group.This decision marks a significant diplomatic milestone, ensuring the restoration of Kazakhstan’s full and equal participation in all of the Agency’s governance processes.Kazakhstan became the eighth member of the “Far East” regional group, joining China, Japan, the Republic of Korea, the Philippines, Vietnam, Mongolia, and Cambodia. Negotiations on accession had been underway since 2009 in Astana, Vienna, Geneva, New York, and in the capitals of the group’s member states.For many years, Kazakhstan remained one of 17 IAEA Member States not affiliated with any regional group, which significantly limited the country’s ability to participate in key governing structures.Under established IAEA practice, states outside regional groups cannot compete on equal footing in elections to the Board of Governors, nominate candidates for leadership positions in the General Conference and the Board of Governors, participate fully in key committees, or take part in regional consultations that shape fundamental Agency decisions.Since 2021, Kazakhstan has consistently advanced the initiative to restore sovereign equality among all IAEA Member States in multilateral forums, regularly placing this issue on the agendas of the Board of Governors and the General Conference. The adoption of a General Conference resolution in 2023 and the creation of the “Group of Friends” provided strong momentum to efforts aimed at eliminating imbalance and inequality within the Agency. As a result, the number of states not belonging to any regional group decreased from 17 to 12.Despite its exemplary record in nuclear disarmament and the peaceful use of atomic energy, Kazakhstan had long faced limitations in representation within the IAEA’s governing bodies. Therefore, Kazakhstan’s accession to the Far East Regional Group constitutes a historic step toward restoring the principle of sovereign equality, fully aligned with the Agency’s Statute and the General Conference Resolution GC(67)/RES/15 of 29 September 2023, initiated by Kazakhstan.Membership in the regional group paves the way for Kazakhstan to participate fully and on an equal basis in the IAEA’s decision-making processes. This carries particular importance for the development of the national nuclear energy sector and for strengthening international cooperation in the peaceful use of atomic energy.Kazakhstan intends to continue its efforts to ensure the full and equal participation of all Member States in the activities of the IAEA.  Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/mfa-vienna/press/news/details/1111062?lang=kk
