In this direction, we can say that there have been a number of successes in the last five years. The total added value of the manufacturing industry has doubled and reached 17 trillion tenge. Its share in the gross domestic product has reached 12.4 percent. Last year alone, 163 new production facilities were launched. As a result, 12.5 thousand permanent jobs were created.

For example, large enterprises in the field of mechanical engineering and metallurgy have been opened in Almaty, Kostanay, Karaganda, and Atyrau regions. This year, the largest production facility in Kazakhstan, which produces various types of vehicles, began operating in Almaty. But this, of course, is not enough.

Diversification of the economy should be continued at a fresh pace. Priority should be given to the production of highly processed products that are competitive in the domestic and foreign markets. Currently, this work is being carried out without a system. Support measures are implemented by institutions with different principles and requirements. This situation is very confusing for entrepreneurs. It is necessary to fully organize and coordinate this sector.

Mining and metallurgy has always been a reliable pillar of Kazakhstan's new industrial model. Its share in the country's economy is 8 percent.

But the industry has great potential for development. In particular, it has a great potential for the production of deep-processed products. In accordance with global processes, the importance of rare metals and other highly needed materials has increased. Kazakhstan has every opportunity to consolidate its position in the new network of global production and trade in this area.

We must launch at least three enterprises producing high-tech products in the mining sector over the next three years. The Government must also implement a number of advanced projects for the deep processing of hydrocarbon raw materials.

Construction of a large gas-chemical complex has begun in Atyrau. A project for deep processing of liquefied gas has been launched in Pavlodar. It is necessary to ensure the timely commissioning of these enterprises.
It is necessary to fundamentally reconsider the issue of utilizing associated gas and liquefied petroleum gas. It is necessary to turn it into a full-fledged economic resource.
