Dear residents of Kostanay!Dear fellow countrymen!I wholeheartedly congratulate you on June 4th – the Day of the State Symbols of the Republic of Kazakhstan!The State Flag, Emblem, and Anthem are the pillars of our Independence and symbols of the national spirit. There is a Kazakh proverb: "Those with one banner have common roots, those with one path have a shared burden." Representatives of various ethnic groups in our country live in peace and harmony under the blue banner of Kazakhstan. We are united by our blue passport, common goals, and unwavering faith in the constructive power of the reforms being implemented.One of the important historical steps on this path was the adoption of the new Constitution in the nationwide referendum on March 15. The Basic Law is a guarantee of the state's stability and a solid foundation for the unity of the people. The key values enshrined in the Constitution – human rights, law and order, social justice, and the principles of responsible citizenship – have today become the basis of state policy.Head of State Kassym-Jomart Tokayev noted: "Our interests, our path, and our goal are one. This is the construction of a Just, Safe, and Clean Kazakhstan. If through the Constitution we ensure the supremacy of law and order, preserve and strengthen our unity, then we can conquer any heights."In the Kostanay region, large-scale transformations are also being implemented step by step, which is clearly confirmed by the pace of the region's development.The Head of State outlined a strategic task - to ensure annual economic growth of the country at a level of at least 6 percent. Over the past two years, we have consistently been fulfilling this instruction, demonstrating stable positive dynamics.Thus, in 2024, economic growth exceeded the set target of 6% and amounted to 8.3%. In 2025, with a planned target of 6.5%, growth reached 8.2%. The task for the current year is to ensure economic growth of no less than 6 percent and maintain positive momentum.Currently, the Kostanay region is the center of mechanical engineering in Kazakhstan. We produce 25% of the country's mechanical engineering output. And this share will continue to grow.New production facilities are being created. In 2022, there were 4 large mechanical engineering plants operating in the region. These are "SaryarkaAutoProm" LLP, "AgromashHolding KZ" JSC, "Machine-Building Plant MTZ-Kazakhstan" LLP, and "Kostanay Tractor Plant" LLP.Then, over the past three years, five more modern production facilities have appeared. These are a Kia automobile plant, a plant producing drive axles for heavy-duty vehicles, a plant producing engine blocks and cylinder heads for trucks, a plant producing springs for railway transport, and a plant for manufacturing auto components for passenger cars is preparing to launch.More than 3,000 jobs have been created.In the agro-industrial complex, 7 large dairy farms have been built, and another 5 are planned to open this year.Furthermore, the "S-Agro Borovskoe" LLP plant for producing dried mare's milk, the modern milling complex "Aruana-2010" LLP, the "KAIZEN" LLP legume processing factory, and the "MILH" LLP cheese production plant with a capacity of 10,000 tons have been launched.The construction of the "Confectionery Capital" factory is being completed. Thanks to this project, the region will become a major producer of confectionery products in the country.To develop transport logistics, the construction of the international transport and logistics complex "Tobyl" is underway in the regional center.Following the instruction of Head of State Kassym-Jomart Tokayev, construction has begun on the strategically important "Center - West" highway. Additionally, the road from Arkalyk will be fully repaired this year.To develop the southern districts of the region, the construction of an airport in Arkalyk is nearing completion. The facility will be commissioned within the next month and a half. Thus, direct flights will operate from Arkalyk to Kostanay, Astana, and Almaty.The social sphere remains a priority for the region, with special attention paid to rural development.Over the past period, more than 1,000 streets (1,074) in 305 rural settlements have been repaired, access roads to 185 villages have been improved, and 76 km of sidewalks have been laid. Asphalt pavement has been installed for the first time on 293 streets in 293 villages.Housing construction is actively developing. In 2025, 517.4 thousand sq. m of housing was commissioned in the region, providing housing for over 5,000 families.In recent years, new schools, kindergartens, healthcare and sports facilities have been opened in the region, and infrastructure in rural areas has been updated.Since 2022 alone, over 100 social facilities have been commissioned in the region. These include 10 schools for 6,000 students and 15 kindergartens for more than 2,000 children.Two schools for 1,200 students each will be built in Kostanay city in the "Tobol" microdistrict and the "Astana" microdistrict, with an estimated cost of 8.4 billion tenge each.In recent years, 39 healthcare and social facilities have been built, including FAPs (feldsher-midwife stations), outpatient clinics, and medical posts. Just recently, a large polyclinic opened in the Kostanay district.Additionally, 8 cultural facilities, 39 sports facilities, including 18 fitness and wellness centers, 11 hockey rinks, an indoor equestrian therapy arena for children with special needs, and a boarding school for gifted athletes in Arkalyk.Currently under construction are a Table Tennis Center, a new water park, a multifunctional stadium on the Kostanay city embankment, and in the "Astana" microdistrict, construction of a new 3,000-seat Sports Palace will begin. In Arkalyk, the "Samruk-Kazyna" fund is implementing a project for a modern multifunctional sports complex.An agreement has been reached that the "Kazakhstan Khalkyna" fund will finance the construction of a fitness and wellness center for people with disabilities in Kostanay city. This issue had remained unresolved for many years.In turn, our athletes, who worthily glorify the State Flag and Anthem on the international stage, are the pride of all Kostanay residents.This year, athletes from the region have achieved high results. Asian boxing champion Nadezhda Ryabets, bronze medalists of the XXV Summer Deaflympics in team tennis - Bijan Tuleev, Kanat Konkubaev, Daniyar Iskendirov, and Abylai Burkithayev - are shining examples of courage and perseverance.The pride of the region also includes world para powerlifting champion Farkhat Mutanov and silver medalist of the U23 Greco-Roman Wrestling World Championship Yusup Matsiev.The Kostanay region is a sacred land, the birthplace of prominent individuals who dedicated their lives to serving the people. It is a blessed land that gave the world great representatives of the Alash spiritual heritage: Ybyrai Altynsarin, Akhmet Baitursynuly, Mirzhakyp Dulatov, and Beimbet Mailin.Their enlightening ideas, worthy life path, and devoted service to the nation still serve as a spiritual guide for the younger generation.Today, many talented young people continue this glorious path. Our schoolchildren, winning international and republican Olympiads, glorify the region and raise high the State Flag of Kazakhstan.Bronze medalist of the Asian Physics Olympiad Abdykadyr Tazhi, silver medalist of the International Chemistry Olympiad Nargiz Abzhanova, winner of the Asia-Pacific Linguistics Olympiad Alibek Kadralinov are vivid embodiments of the youth of Independent Kazakhstan.In the field of culture, Kostanay artists also worthily represent national art and perform successfully at the international level. "Altyn Dombra" holder Aibek Kaliev and Grand Prix winner of the republican "Altyn Shanyrak" aitys Irina Novitskaya are talented personalities who have glorified national art.Dear fellow countrymen!It is a great honor for us that today we are joined by the prominent ethnographer-writer, keeper of traditions Zeynepp Akhmetova, who personally knew the legendary commander, People's Hero Bauyrzhan Momyshuly.Bauyrzhan Momyshuly is a historical figure who became a symbol of courage, patriotism, discipline, and devotion to the Motherland. His life path and spiritual legacy are invaluable assets in educating the younger generation.Zeynepp Akhmetova has been making an invaluable contribution for many years to the development of national upbringing, the preservation of spiritual values, and the strengthening of cultural heritage. The participation of such a respected person in today's forum is a historic event for all of us.Furthermore, today we are joined by the mother of Olympic medalist Vasily Levit – Tatyana Borisovna.

Today, under the chairmanship of regional Akim Kumar Aksakalov, a meeting of the regional akimat was held, dedicated to the completion of the 2025–2026 academic year, as well as the organization of children's summer recreation, leisure, and employment during the holidays.Organizing summer recreation and employment for schoolchildren is an important task.

For these purposes, 457 million tenge has been allocated, which is 1.8 times more compared to 2022."This growth was achieved thanks to the opening of two out-of-town camps, as well as an increase in the coverage of children with summer recreation from 74% to 98.5%. In 55% of school-based camps, free meals will be organized. This summer, 12 out-of-town and 617 school-based camps will operate.

This year, in the Mendykarinsky district, the 'Allur' plant will begin the restoration of the former 'Solnechny' camp. Here, the enterprise's employees will be able to relax with their families. In the future, the company plans to open a year-round commercial camp for children. Such work needs to be carried out in all cities and districts," noted the regional akim.All summer recreation facilities must comply with sanitary and fire safety requirements. The programs of out-of-town and school-based camps should include sports, creative, and developmental activities, be meaningful and diverse."We have tested, within the framework of forums and various events, industrial tours to machine-building plants in the city of Kostanay. Currently, the issue of transferring these tours to tour operators is being considered. These tours must be included in the summer vacation plans. In the future, such events will help children with career guidance and choosing a profession. Children's summer recreation should be not only interesting but also safe," noted the head of the region.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/kostanay/press/news/details/1228717?lang=ru

This approach helped not only to clean polluted areas but also to popularize the culture of separate waste collection.Teams of 5 to 10 people were invited to participate. The campaign involved schoolchildren, students, volunteers, youth organizations, representatives of government institutions, as well as concerned residents of the region. Each team independently chose a name and a captain.During the competitive part, participants collected litter, sorted it into categories, and delivered bags to special collection points. One hour was allotted to complete the tasks.The collected waste was divided into several categories: plastic, glass, metal, as well as mixed and non-recyclable waste. A separate scoring system was provided for each type of litter. Teams received the highest number of points for collecting plastic, highlighting the importance of recycling this type of waste for the environment.The "Möldir Bulaq" environmental campaign became another important step towards fostering a responsible attitude towards nature and preserving the cleanliness of the native land for future generations.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/kostanay/press/news/details/1228590?lang=ru
