On September 6, 2025, Shymkent held its latest citywide cleanup day. This traditional environmental campaign brought together employees from all city agencies: public utilities, educational institutions, healthcare organizations, as well as representatives from various departments and agencies. The main goal of the event was to improve the city's sanitary conditions, beautify public spaces, and foster environmental awareness among the population.
Among the active participants in the cleanup day was the staff of the Shymkent City Land Relations Department. This department was assigned a separate section of the site, where employees carried out a range of sanitary cleanup activities. Particular attention was paid to removing household waste, cleaning sidewalks and roadside areas, and tidying up public spaces used daily by city residents.
The Department's staff participated in the cleanup day in full force, demonstrating a high level of collective discipline and social responsibility. Through their joint efforts, they set an example of caring for the environment and emphasized the importance of each person's personal contribution to the cleanliness and well-being of the city.
During the cleanup, special attention was paid to the condition of irrigation systems. The Land Relations Department organized cleaning of ditches and canals that provide water to green spaces. Timely cleaning of irrigation canals ensures uninterrupted water supply, prevents blockages, and improves the urban environment.
Thus, the employees' efforts were not limited to simply removing trash. Their contribution to maintaining the irrigation systems is directly linked to the preservation and development of the city's green spaces.
The event organizers emphasized that the citywide cleanup day is not only practical but also educational. The participation of government officials, including the Land Relations Department, is aimed at instilling in the population the habit of keeping public spaces clean and caring for the environment.
During the event, department staff called on city residents to maintain order not only during cleanup days but also in their everyday lives. They emphasized that a clean city begins with each resident's yard, and environmental awareness is formed through simple habits—not littering, cleaning up after yourself, and preserving green spaces.
The Head of the Land Relations Department noted that participation in the cleanup day is an important step toward strengthening team spirit and cohesion. He explained that such events help employees demonstrate social activism, increase their sense of responsibility, and simultaneously make a tangible contribution to the city's improvement.
"We believe that cleanliness and order are the hallmarks of any metropolis. How Shymkent is seen by visitors and perceived by residents depends on us. Therefore, participating in cleanup days is not a formality, but our civic duty," the director emphasized.
The department's staff also addressed the city's residents with an open appeal: "The city's cleanliness depends on each of us. If every resident maintains order in their home, yard, or workplace, Shymkent's overall appearance will become even more attractive."
According to them, cleanup days should not be viewed as a one-off event, but as part of an overall city development strategy. A responsible attitude toward the environment not only contributes to improvements in the environment but also improves quality of life.
As a result of the cleanup, several tons of household waste were collected and removed from the city. Sidewalks, courtyards, roadside areas, and irrigation canals were cleared. Green spaces received additional care. Local utility services ensured the timely removal of collected waste, and residents received a clear example of how, through joint efforts, the city can be made cleaner.
The Shymkent mayor's office announced that such events will be held regularly. The main goal is not only to restore order but also to engage residents in fostering a culture of cleanliness and responsibility.
The citywide cleanup event held on September 6, 2025, was a shining example of collaboration between city agencies and the active participation of Land Relations Department staff. The department's staff made a significant contribution to the city's sanitary conditions by cleaning the assigned area and irrigation systems.
Initiatives like these demonstrate that cleanliness and order in the metropolis depend on the joint efforts of the government and the public. The example of the department's staff underscores that sustainable results can only be achieved through the personal involvement of each individual.
Today, Shymkent is a dynamically developing metropolis, and caring for its appearance, sanitation, and the environment should be a priority for all residents. Cleanup days are becoming an integral part of this process, uniting people around a common goal: to create a clean, well-maintained, and livable city.
