Within the framework of the concept of "Taza Kazakhstan", on the last day of autumn and the week of cleanliness in Almaty, environmental actions are being held to clean citywide spaces. In the Bostandyk district, about 250 people, among them Olympic medalists, pop stars, and active youth, put the site at the intersection of Shagabutdinova - Satpayev in order.
According to Akim of Bostandyk district Sanjar Alin, today there are 5 contractors in the district that are engaged in sanitary cleaning of yards. Employees of the State Enterprise "Almaty Tazalyk" clean the road infrastructure.
"We have 670 yards. In order to monitor the cleaning work, we are in constant contact with the Chairmen of the AXIS and KSK. If contractors do not fulfill their obligations, we receive a signal through messengers and try to respond promptly. In case of violations, we apply penalties, first to the head of the site. If the case repeats, then we impose a fine on the organization itself – the amount is much higher there. If the contractor does not correct the situation, then we terminate the contract through the court. To date, we have one contractor to whom we have sent a pre-trial letter with requirements. If he does not respond, we will sue and break off relations," said the akim of the district.
Among the participants of the action was a Kazakhstani freestyle wrestler, Honored Master of Sports of the Republic of Kazakhstan, silver medalist of the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney, deputy of the Maslikhat of Almaty Islam Bayramukov.

"As long as humanity has existed, the issue of cleanliness in the house and respect for the environment, for the city in which you live, will remain relevant. Cleaning urban spaces by joint efforts is a very important and necessary action, since Almaty has always been famous for its cleanliness and greenery. I think that this tradition should not be interrupted, and it should also be supported with the involvement of young people, residents of the city. Most importantly, when a person's inner world is clean, he will not litter. Everyone should be responsible for their actions," Islam Bayramukov stressed.
Kazakh pop stars did not stay away either. Singer Oktem Altaev called on all citizens to support this initiative to clean up the city.
"Every weekend we cleaned this area, but there is no less garbage here. I would like to urge the local residents of this site not to litter and keep clean, because this is our common home. And in general, Almaty residents, I urge you to join the action," said Oktem Altaev.
Olympic medalists of the Paris 2024 Olympics also came to clean up.

"Today we came to maintain the cleanliness of our city, as well as to help all the workers who clean Almaty from garbage. I am very glad to see that students and athletes are joining the campaign and trying to put our city in order. I think this is very good, because cleanliness starts with you," says 2024 Olympic bronze medalist Islam Satpayev.
In turn, Olympic bronze medalist Alexandra Lee noted that it is very important to participate in such actions, since we live here and clean for ourselves.
"Cleaning is a useful activity, and I am very glad to see so many well–wishers who are not lazy and help our country become cleaner and more beautiful," says the athlete.
Activists of youth community centers from the Ecorangers movement, who contribute to the greening of our metropolis, were also seen at the eco-action.
"Since the beginning of the year, more than 200 eco–actions have been held in the city - these are not only clean-up days, but also recycling collection, educational lectures and so on. The youth of the megalopolis are now very actively participating in such events. I want to note that we, as eco-rangers, understand that Almaty should always be clean, that's why we are here," said Beibit Zhasulanuly, the activist coordinator of the Almaly district community center.
Three units of special equipment were used to clean the territory, as a result, about 30 tons of garbage were removed. This is only a small part of the total volume of 1,300 tons of waste collected since the beginning of the Taza Kazakhstan initiative in Almaty.

The main purpose of the event is to increase environmental awareness of citizens, form a culture of environmental protection and maintain cleanliness in the city. According to the organizers, such events contribute to strengthening the responsibility of society towards nature and help make Almaty a comfortable city for everyone.
