Our foreign institutions, our ambassadors abroad hold negotiations with head offices of companies located there. We covered about 700 companies. Some enterprises are concerned. Such large corporations as Exxon Mobile see the big picture, they look not only at the situation in Kazakhstan, but also discuss what is happening around us. In general, we look at the figures that we have now. For example, the growth of investments in Kazakhstan’s economy totaled 50 percent,” said Almas Aidarov, Kazakh Deputy Foreign Minister.
