Berlin, April 9, 2025 – The 21st meeting of the bilateral Intergovernmental Commission (IGC) on Ethnic Germans in the Republic of Kazakhstan discussed the issues of supporting ethnic Germans, strengthening cultural and humanitarian cooperation between Kazakhstan and Germany.Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs of Kazakhstan Roman Vassilenko and Germany’s Federal Government Commissioner for Matters Related to Ethnic German Resettlers and National Minorities, Member of the Bundestag Natalie Pawlik co-chaired the annual session in the German capital.The agenda of the IGC covered issues of cooperation in education, culture, science, youth policies, the studying of German language, archival work, facilitating business contacts and liberalization of the visa regime, focusing on implementation of the joint projects to support the national identity of Germans in Kazakhstan.The participants welcomed the opening of the Centre for German Language and Culture at the Eurasian National University and the branch of the Anhalt University of Applied Sciences at the Almaty University of Power Engineering and Telecommunications in 2024, noting also the important contribution of the Kazakh-German Center in Astana, the Kazakh-German University in Almaty, the Kazakh-German Institute of Sustainable Engineering in Aktau, the National Academic German Drama Theatre and other institutions in strengthening the bilateral interaction.“Just as the Kazakh land has traditionally connected the West and the East, so the ethnic Germans in Kazakhstan and former citizens of our country in Germany have today created a “living bridge” between Kazakhstan and Germany and are key to perspective development of Kazakh-German relations,” said Vassilenko.He noted that ensuring favourable conditions for coexistence of various people in a common socio-cultural space remains one of the key objectives of the Government of Kazakhstan. The Deputy Foreign Minister also highlighted the important role of the Assembly of the People of Kazakhstan, celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, in supporting and developing national cultures.In turn, Natalie Pawlik confirmed the German Government’s plans to continue providing assistance to ethnic Germans in Kazakhstan. “I would like to highlight the dynamic development of cooperation between Kazakhstan and Germany, including support for ethnic Germans in Kazakhstan that play an important role in further deepening bilateral relations”, noted the Member of the Bundestag.The parties agreed on the implementation of further measures to ensure comprehensive support to ethnic Germans in Kazakhstan that were stipulated in the Communique signed at the end of the meeting.During his visit to Berlin, Deputy minister Vassilenko also held meetings with Member of the German Bundestag Stefan Rouenhoff and the Director for Central Asia, Eastern Europe and the Caucasus of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Federal Republic of Germany Konrad Arz von Straussenburg. The parties discussed the current state and prospects for further development of bilateral cooperation, as well as exchanged views on global and regional affairs.The Intergovernmental Commission on Ethnic Germans in the Republic of Kazakhstan was established in accordance with the Agreement on Cooperation in the Support for Citizens of the Republic of Kazakhstan of German Nationality between the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan and the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany signed in Almaty on May 31, 1996.According to statistics, there are 226,000 ethnic Germans in Kazakhstan and around one million German resettlers from Kazakhstan in Germany.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/mfa/press/news/details/973088?lang=kk

On March 15 of this year, the Head of State signed the Law on improving budget legislation, within the framework of which amendments were made, among other things, concerning public-private partnerships. At the site of the Central Communications Service, the Chairman of the Board of JSC «Kazakhstan Center for Public-Private Partnership» Aslan Kaligazin spoke about how the procedure for implementing PPP projects will be improved.According to the speaker, an important amendment concerns a change in the approaches to the use of two-stage and one-stage competitions. Until now, two-stage competitions have practically not been held in Kazakhstan, with the rare exception of some PPP projects at the national level.«At the same time, international financial organizations, on the contrary, point to the need for a two-stage selection. This type of selection is considered the best practice for determining a private partner by choosing the best technological and financial solutions at the first and second stages of the competition. Thus, within the framework of these amendments, it is envisaged to transfer all PPP projects, including the design and construction of a PPP facility, to two-stage procedures», said the head of the Kazakhstan Center for Public-Private Partnership.In addition, the amendments provide for a reduction in the requirements for potential private partners to invest in the project of their own capital from 20% to 10%. According to the speaker, this amendment reduces barriers to participation in competitions, simplifies entry into the market for those companies that cannot allocate a large amount of their own funds, but at the same time have the competence and capabilities to implement the planned PPP projects.Also, the need for a potential private partner to «freeze» these funds in their accounts to pass the qualification selection at the stage of competitive procedures has been eliminated. That is, confirmation of these funds is necessary only after the conclusion of the PPP agreement.«In order to improve the quality of project development, accreditation of organizations providing consulting and expert services in the field of PPP is being introduced. Accreditation will be carried out by the Ministry of National Economy in accordance with the requirements approved by it, excluding the evaluative nature of the procedure. I would like to dwell separately on the amendments to the implementation of the «software PPP» mechanism, which allows for a reduction in project planning time and state budget expenditures on their development and examination by optimizing procedures and using standard documentation. Thus, with the help of software PPP, industry central government agencies can determine the basic parameters of PPP projects. They will be able to independently approve the rules for determining a private partner and concluding a PPP agreement, as well as ready-made standard packages of documents for holding a competition for replicated PPP projects, taking into account industry specifics,» – noted Aslan Kaligazin.At the moment, such industry rules and standard documents have been approved for the implementation of replicated projects for the construction and operation of schools, dormitories and clinics. Similar documents in the fields of education, healthcare, social protection of the population, sports and ecology are at the development and approval stage.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/economy/press/news/details/973000?lang=kk

At the site of the Central Communications Service, the Chairman of the Board of JSC «Kazakhstan Center for Public-Private Partnership» Aslan Kaligazin spoke about the implemented PPP projects. In particular, over the entire period of application of this mechanism, more than 1200 contracts have been signed for a total of 3,4 trillion tenge.According to the speaker, most contracts were concluded in the field of education, healthcare, energy and housing and communal services. These industries account for about 90%. At the same time, in value terms, about 33% falls on the transport and infrastructure sector, since this is where the most capital-intensive projects are, such as highways and airports.«As for the statistics of PPP projects for the past year, 54 contracts were concluded, more than half of which are projects to modernize school canteens in the Atyrau and Turkestan regions. The largest of them are two projects in the Almaty region for the construction and operation of sewage treatment facilities in the city of Konayev, the implementation and operation of a road and public safety system, as well as two projects for the construction and operation of two schools for 4 thousand students in the city of Atyrau. Other projects include landscaping, construction of student dormitories and 7 PPP projects in the field of sports for the organization and operation of sports complexes, sports clubs, and youth sports schools», – said Aslan Kaligazin.Given the scale of financing and the need for effective management, special attention is paid to monitoring and evaluating activities at the regional level. Therefore, as the speaker noted, a rating of the implementation of PPP projects is being introduced for the regions. Such an innovation is necessary to increase the share of projects paid for by extra-budgetary sources of financing and consumer fees, and to establish the monitoring process by akimats. Currently, the methodology for calculating the rating is at the development stage.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/economy/press/news/details/972993?lang=kk
