The U.S. has delivered advanced
computer servers to Kazakhstan to support the new customs Keden IT system which
will replace the outdated Astana-1. The new equipment will help modernize
Kazakhstan’s customs infrastructure, enhancing data performance and security
through automation and artificial intelligence technologies. According to
experts, the introduction of the new system will speed up the processing of
customs procedures and increase transparency. This, in turn, will create
favorable conditions for businesses, attract more investors, and stimulate
economic and foreign trade development.
«Through this project, we hope to make trade in
Kazakhstan and actually between Kazakhstan and its neighbors more efficient,
less costly, and ultimately lead to a big increase in trade volumes. We
believe, it benefits the U.S. when we’re trading with Kazakhstan and our
companies. But, obviously, not only the United States benefits, Kazakhstan’s all
trading partners benefit. This improvement will make it possible to diversify
trade for Kazakhstan. So, it’s more efficient and also more diverse,» said Daniel
Rosenblum, the U.S. Ambassador to Kazakhstan.
