At the end of last year, the Central Water Sports Complex was returned from trust management to state ownership.In 2017, by a decree of the Akimat of the South Kazakhstan region, the Central Water Sports Complex was transferred to trust management with the right to purchase. The market value of the facility was 1 billion 213 million 700 thousand tenge. As a result of e-commerce, a trust management agreement was concluded with the winner of GRAND TRUST LLP. According to the contract, the trustee had to invest 500 million tenge in the facility and fulfill tax obligations on time.However, the terms of the contract were not fulfilled. Due to the unfair performance of the duties of the management company, the building has become unusable today. The walls were cracked, and some of the floor coverings had collapsed. During the preliminary inspection, it was established that the complex does not meet safety requirements and its operation poses a threat to the life and health of citizens.Under the leadership of the director of GRAND TRUST LLP, Sadykov A., the trust management company was annually funded from the local budget. More than 1 billion 218 million tenge was allocated for the maintenance of the building and the training of athletes in water sports in the period from 2018 to 2024. In addition, as part of the per capita financing of the state sports order in 2021-2024, the Aquatics Center LLP, which operated in the Central Water Sports Complex, received funds totaling 335 million tenge.In addition, the company has arrears on tax obligations to the budget of more than 111 million tenge.

As part of the occupational therapy, the children made feeders for wintering birds. During the event, a musical warm-up was held for the participants, contests and games were played. The children were very happy to hang their own hand-made feeders on the territory of the center. Now, when attending classes, the wards will have the opportunity to take care of the conservation of the number of birds."The importance of holding the national action "Taza Kazakhstan" is felt by every citizen of the Republic of Kazakhstan. And this event showed that fostering a sense of responsibility, patriotism and hard work in children will bear fruit in the future," the occupational therapy instructor emphasized."Thanks to such initiatives, a new culture and a new social ethic are taking root in the country. We can say that this is true patriotism and caring for the Motherland. Through such deeds, a new quality of our nation is being formed," the President said in his Message to the people of Kazakhstan.A master class "creation of products from recycled materials" was organized in the city of Gitikara.The beginning of the master class was a conversation with the younger generation about the problem of increasing the amount of plastic garbage and landfills of household waste. The children were told about the most important environmental topics: about the human attitude to nature, about the possibilities of plastic recycling in the modern world, and also introduced the children to the fractions of packaging and the rules of their sorting. For accessibility, the children were shown examples in pictures and videos.
