The state will fulfill all social obligations in full and on time. This was reported by the Kazakh Ministry of Labor and Social Protection of the Population. As of January 8, more than 176 billion tenge (US$406 million) was transferred to recipients of pensions and benefits. All funds are transferred to the accounts of Kazakh residents in accordance with the established procedure and the approved schedule. In addition, payments to citizens who received targeted social assistance will be automatically extended for another three months.
