Kazakhstan with non-repayable grants for the development of the aerospace
industry. The parties have signed a memorandum of cooperation in this area.
Under the new agreement, China will allocate 100 million yuan for the

directed towards the modernization of the infrastructure of the domestic
research institutes. Moreover, joint projects in the fields of astrophysics and
the ionosphere are slated for implementation. Intergovernmental cooperation
also includes the exchange of knowledge and production experience. The grants
will be distributed on a competitive basis.
«We have an agreement and several
lists of specific projects that need to undergo selection according to
regulations. Initially, we will specify our requirements. Then, together with
the Chinese side, we will select several projects from these lists. Following
this, a competition will be held among Chinese manufacturing and scientific
companies. The winners will share their knowledge and technology with us,» said
