The first meeting of the regional level, which is being held for the first time, was attended by official delegations from these regions of the two countries.During the meeting, issues of further development of bilateral trade and economic cooperation were discussed.The official representatives of the Zhetysu delegation dwelled in detail on the development of one of the points of economic growth – the Khorgos direction, located at the intersection of important directions from China to the CIS countries, Europe and Asia. In particular, the Nur Zholy checkpoint, the Khorgos – Eastern Gate Special economic zone and the Khorgos ICBC are of great importance. An industrial park with the participation of Chinese investors is currently planned to be built on the territory of the Khorgos – Eastern Gate SEZ, where the KTZE-Khorgos Gateway dry port project has been implemented. It is also planned to implement a joint Kazakh-German project on the construction of a cargo and passenger airport worth 250.0 billion tenge on the territory of the FEZ.In addition, work is actively underway at the Nur Zholy checkpoint to increase its capacity. A 24-hour operation mode and an electronic queue system have been introduced.

This center sells cars manufactured in China and various necessary auto parts. The Chinese side noted that a service center for the maintenance of such vehicles can be opened in the Zhetisu region, if necessary.Next, the delegation got acquainted with the construction of a quarantine laboratory for the inspection of agricultural products. As it became known, this facility will contribute to the functioning of a common technical standard between the two countries, that is, the verification and export of Kazakh agricultural products. Based on the principle of "one product, one certificate", the certificate issued by this laboratory will be valid for both countries. This facility will be put into operation in 2025.The place where the second special crossing will be built on the territory of the cooperation center has also been designated. This transition, which will be built by the Chinese side, will have a positive impact on increasing trade turnover between the two countries.In general, due to the improvement of infrastructure in the ICBC "Khorgos", the total volume of investments on the Kazakh side of the center increased by 87% compared to 2023 and amounted to 256 billion tenge.

Minister of Water Resources and Irrigation Nurzhan Nurzhigitov presented at a meeting of the Mazhilis of the Parliament an updated draft of the new Water Code, developed jointly with deputies of the lower house of Parliament and experts. The document consists of the 121st article, 14 chapters and 6 sections.The development of the Water Code was carried out according to five basic principles. This is the recognition of water as an integral part of the environment, the basis of human life and economic development, the recognition by the state of the economic value of water resources in their use, the integrated use of surface and groundwater, water conservation based on the effective and rational use of water resources, public involvement in solving problems of protection and use of water resources.The new Code introduces the concept of "water safety" for the first time. It covers the protection of the population and the economy from water scarcity and pollution of water bodies. To prevent the depletion of water bodies, the concept of "ecological runoff" is introduced – the minimum allowable water level for maintaining ecosystems of rivers, lakes and seas.The requirements for the protection of water bodies have been expanded. First of all, small rivers and lakes. In particular, the construction of blind dams on small rivers is prohibited.For the integrated use of surface and groundwater, as well as the reconstruction of the National Hydrogeological Service, it is planned to transfer the function of groundwater management from other authorized and local executive bodies to the Ministry of Water Resources and Irrigation.The new Code also provides for the development of a Master Plan for Integrated Water Resources Management and basin plans. These documents will define goals, objectives, approaches and main activities based on forecasts of the availability of water resources. The conclusions and recommendations of these plans will have to be taken into account in government planning.Mechanisms for stimulating water conservation are included, which are not available in the current version. For example, a permit for the use of water will be issued only if there is a plan for a phased transition to recycled or re-supplied water supply.The transition is given five years. The development of plans takes two years from the date of the introduction of the new Water Code into force.Another feature of the new document was the introduction of a separate chapter on the safety of hydraulic structures. It systematizes the issues of forming and maintaining a register of hydraulic structures, their operation, as well as conducting multifactorial surveys and developing safety declarations. It also provides for the development of safety regulations for hydraulic structures.On behalf of the Head of State, a set of amendments to combat floods and drought has been developed, as well as the responsibilities and powers of state bodies at all levels have been defined. For example, regulations are being introduced to prevent harmful effects of water, including cleaning and deepening of surface water bodies and the creation of engineering flood protection systems.To ensure citizens' access to information on water resources, a National Information Report will be published annually. It will contain information about the state, protection and use of water in the country.To digitalize the water industry, it is planned to create a National Information System, the work of which will be provided by the Water Resources Information and Analytical Center established this year.Much attention in the new Water Code is paid to public control in the field of protection and use of water resources. Thus, basin inspections are endowed with investigative functions, which will make it possible to tighten the requirements for the protection of water resources, more effectively combat their illegal use and the "black market" of water.The document also provides for amendments and additions to the Environmental, Business, Civil, Land Codes and 9 laws."We express our gratitude to all the deputies who actively and constructively worked on the Water Code. The events of recent years, including the large-scale floods of this year, have once again highlighted the importance of reforming the water management system. The new Water Code takes into account international experience and is aimed at protecting ecosystems, adapting to climate change and sustainable economic development through rational water management. The main focus of the document is on protecting water resources from depletion and pollution and only then on economic needs. This is one of the fundamental differences between the new Water Code and the current one," said Nurzhan Nurzhigitov, Minister of Water Resources and Irrigation.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/water/press/news/details/891267

The autumn landscaping campaign in Almaty, which started in October this year within the framework of the republican program "Taza Kazakhstan", is actively continuing. At the moment, about 160 thousand seedlings have been planted in the city.An important innovation in 2023 was the new Rules of landscaping, introduced on behalf of the mayor of the city. According to the rules, three years of care for planted trees is now mandatory, which ensures a more effective process of adaptation of plants to the urban environment. Strict requirements for planting materials have also been introduced: the height of deciduous seedlings should be at least 2.5-3 meters, and coniferous seedlings should be at least 2 meters, preserving the lump of earth during planting to improve the survival of trees.Residents note that the quality of the planted materials has significantly improved in the city."With the new rules on landscaping, it has become much more pleasant to walk in the city. The trees that are being planted now really look better - they are stronger, greener and grow well. Previously, many plants did not take root, but now we see how trees develop and become street decorations. This makes our city even more beautiful and comfortable to live in," says resident Anna."Now it is clear that the approaches to gardening have really changed. The trees that we now see on the streets are much stronger and healthier. Previously, planted plants often did not take root due to the wrong approach, but now you can see how they grow and become part of the urban beauty," says a resident of the Auezovsky district of Denmark.In order to increase the survival rate of seedlings, as well as to obtain scientific recommendations, joint work is underway with specialized organizations - the Main Botanical Garden of the Republic of Kazakhstan and the KazNII for Plant Protection and Quarantine named after Zh. Zhiembayev. According to the received recommendations of experts, in the autumn-winter period, planting should be carried out only with a closed lump of earth, and when subzero temperatures occur, imported soil should be used to fill the seats. Scientists also recommend paying attention to the threshold values: when planting, the comfortable temperature for hardwoods is up to – 8 °C, for conifers not lower than -15 ° C degrees below zero.Recall that in Almaty, on the eve of the winter period, within the framework of the republican program "Taza Kazakhstan" and the city campaign "Almaty is our common home", a large–scale cleaning of the street and road network, public places, riverbeds, street urns and a ditch network is being carried out.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/almaty/press/news/details/891062

On behalf of the mayor of the city, Yerbolat Dosayev, work continues in Almaty to provide citizens with high-quality outdoor lighting. One of its directions is the elimination of areas where historically there were no street lights. For 10 months of this year, the teams of the Almaty Kala Zharyk State Enterprise illuminated 95 courtyards, streets and alleys, installing more than 500 supports and brackets and the same number of lamps there. The length of the previously unlit sections was 20 kilometers."We have never had lighting in the Kemel microdistrict along Kazanat Street in the Kapshagai highway area. There are a lot of people living here, before everyone got home in the dark. It was especially difficult for schoolchildren and pensioners. After contacting Almaty Kala Zharyk, new lampposts were installed, lighting was connected, it became much more comfortable, for which I am very grateful. Now we live like people," says Bakhyt Arystanova, Chairman of the Kazanat AXIS"Our Mukaeva Street in the Akbulak microdistrict is a dead end, and for some reason there was no street lighting at the very end of it. And a large family lives here, and it was very scary for the students to return from classes in the dark. Lighting was installed very quickly, literally the next day after contacting Almaty Kala Zharyk, a team arrived, dug holes and installed poles. A day later, the lanterns were hung up and connected, and now we have a bright and bright street, it's a real holiday for the residents. A huge human thank you to everyone," says Lunara Sembayeva, a resident of the Alatau district.According to Almaty Kala Zharyk, by the end of the year, 25 more previously unlit streets and alleys will be illuminated in the city. The installation of new light points is carried out at the request of district akimats, which form lists of problem areas. According to them, a work plan and a connection schedule are drawn up. Information is currently being prepared on the elimination of unlit areas for 2025.In general, in just 10 months of this year, more than 27 thousand lamps were installed and replaced in Almaty, about 300 km of cable was stretched, and more than two thousand new lighting poles were installed. 24.5 thousand applications from citizens have been processed, which is 93% of all received.
