The regional togyzkumalak championship among men, women and veterans is being held in Karaganda. 160 athletes are fighting for the victory.Among the participants of the competition are two international-class masters of sports, ten masters of sports and thirty candidates for masters of sports.Now this national sport is very popular, says Saule Karatai, senior coach of the Karaganda region for togyzkumalak.– According to rough estimates, currently about 15 thousand schoolchildren are fond of playing togyzkumalak. The game is popularized in schools and yard clubs. There are also many competitions of different levels in togyzkumalak. For example, in February, Aktobe will host the Kazakhstan togyzkumalak Championship among men and women in classics. And in April, the blitz and rapid championships will be held in Karaganda. The Asian Championship will be held in Tashkent, and the World Championship in Pardubice (Czech Republic). There will also be a school championship in China this year," Saule Karatai said.Athletes from 14 to 75 years old take part in the Karaganda region championship. Some of them have been fighting for victory in different age categories for generations.For example, 70-year-old Yulia Falik came to the competition with her grandson.– I've been playing togyzkumalak myself since 1980. At that time, I was working as a senior teacher at a pioneer camp, where Baltabai Kaskarbayev, a togyzkumalak champion, was the director. And so, after lights out, he gathered tutors, counselors and taught them how to play togyzkumalak. Actually, I am a teacher of labor and drawing by profession, but now I work with children as a togyzkumalak coach. I have 12 children studying, and I have six students who no longer train with me, but come to competitions. I also train my grandchildren. The eldest is already an adult, he got married. But the younger one is here now, competing," says the athlete.The results of the regional competitions will be announced on January 14.It is noteworthy that this championship is the first major event that takes place in the sports complex of the Kairat National Sports School after renovation. The building was put in order last year: it was insulated and faced from the outside, the gym, showers were repaired and the heating system was updated.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/karaganda/press/news/details/915338

Taking into account the rapid development of the country's transport and logistics complex, it is expected that in the medium term 25 new specialties will be required. This was announced at a meeting of the government within the framework of the Year of working professions, Minister of transport Marat Karabayev said. In particular, he said that when implementing new projects, it is planned to design the construction and reconstruction of highways using BIM technology, which involves the use of a digital analogue of the project and 3D-modeling. This direction will require appropriate design engineers on "smart roads", foremen with experience in BIM technology, an operator of construction robots and a digital designer. To manage large nodes in the transport and logistics sector, you need a designer and operator of digital logistics cards. In civil aviation, pilots of externally pilotable aircraft systems will be in demand. In this regard, in the future, together with the authorized body and educational institutions, the issue of opening these specialties will be considered. To date, 772 thousand of the 9.7 million employed people work in the transport sector, most of which are in the areas of railway and Road Transport, Logistics and warehousing. @KZgovernmentSource : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/transport/press/news/details/914395

As part of the implementation of the Year of Working Professions announced by the President, during the Government meeting, attention was paid to the shortage of personnel in the transport industry, in particular, in such high-tech areas as aviation, railways and shipping. The Ministry of Transport, together with companies, has been instructed to develop a specific training plan for these industries. For the successful development of the agro-industrial complex, the Ministry of Agriculture, together with the akims of the regions, needs to actively work out issues of providing attractive conditions for specialists in rural areas and launch new programs in this area.The Ministry of Energy, together with companies, should do a lot of work on training workers in close cooperation with subsurface users, employers, and specialized colleges.
