This year, Kazakh art was presented for the
first time at world-renowned art venues: the Venice Biennale and the Guimet
National Museum of Asian Arts. Kazakh books were also showcased at the world’s
largest Frankfurt Book Fair. Minister of Culture and Information Aida Balayeva
reported on the ministry's achievements and activities to President
Kassym-Jomart Tokayev. In 2024, a new law on mass media was adopted in the
country to enhance the status of journalists, and a special tax regime was
introduced to support representatives of the creative industries, alongside the
opening of 10 hubs. The Head of State instructed that preparations for
significant events next year, such as the 30th anniversary of the Assembly of
People of Kazakhstan, the 80th anniversary of Victory in the World War II, as
well as the Congress of Leaders of World and Traditional Religions, be placed
under special control.
