Now we are in this together! The implementation of the reforms announced by the President of Kazakhstan directly concerns not only the state apparatus, but also every citizen. According to local expert Yerik Batyrkhanov, the country is in for a new course of modernization, which will strengthen relations between the government and people. This means that the Kazakh community will be involved in all changes. The political scientist is sure that the Government must work in a new way and will be responsible for making the voices of all citizens heard. Earlier, the Head of State Kassym-Jomart Tokayev instructed to take a set of measures to strengthen ties between the authorities and citizens.
“People must be directly involved in the implementation of the reforms, not just watch and criticize the new government and how it carries out the process. Associations, businesses, public opinion leaders, members of public councils, members of the National Council of Public Trust under the President, the media, bloggers, everyone should be involved in the process of building a new Kazakhstan,” Batyrkhanov said.
