  • Food and Beverage Catalogue Kazakhstan Export Accelerator Programme Foreword
    Food and Beverage Catalogue Kazakhstan Export Accelerator Programme Foreword Dear colleagues, The Ministry of Trade and Integration of the Republic of Kazakhstan welcome you to the Kazakhstan pavilion at the 3rd China International Import Expo (CIIE). We wish we could welcome you in person, but we are happy that in these unprecedented times the CIIE organizers and our team were able to arrange our participation in the exhibition in the virtual format. This catalogue includes food and beverage products manufactured by 35 Kazakh companies that are taking part in the first Export Accelerator program initiated by the Ministry of Trade and Integration of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The program has been developed and being implemented by the QazTrade Center for Trade Policy Development and PwC. This year the aim of the program is to help promising domestic food producers expand their presence in the Chinese market. For many businesses, entering the international market is a long and complicated process. Lack of information, complex certification procedures, lack of export experience are among the reasons why businesses give up their export plans. Together with the PwC team, we are providing export consulting and intensive individual coaching sessions to the companies participating in the program to ensure their long-term presence in the Chinese market. We believe that the products listed in this catalogue would be deservedly in demand in China because of their high quality and uniqueness. We would like to express our appreciation for you taking your time to stop by our pavilion. Bakhyt Sultanov Minister of Trade and Integration of the Republic of Kazakhstan 2 Introduction This year, the food industry was chosen for the first program, due to its enormous export potential with China being the main sales market for Kazakh producers to target new exports.

  • Kazakhstan Is Located in Central Asia
    featureem Paul Randall leads engineering research in the development of mercury risk mitigation and containment strategies and water decontamination research for EPA’s National Risk Management Research Laboratory in Cincinnati, OH. He also provides technical support to Kazakhstan scientists through the U.S. State Department. Mikhail Ilyushchenko, Evgeny Lapshin, and Larissa Kuzmenko are with Almaty Institute of Power Engineering and Telecommunications, Almaty, Kazakhstan. E-mail: [email protected]. Another example and the subject of this article is the mercury pollution at a chemical facility near the city of Pavlodar. Pavlodar is located in the northeastern part of the republic of Kazakhstan (near Semey) and situated on the Irtysh River. It has a population of more than 330,000 people. The Pavlodar Chemical Plant is contaminated with mercury as a result of industrial activity that produced chlo- rine and alkali during the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s. Studies have identified significant amounts of mercury pollution in the soil, water, and sediments. Organic mercury com- pounds, particularly methylmercury, are present in the sedi- ments. Methylmercury rather than inorganic mercury is bioconcentrated because organisms at various levels of the food chain better retain it. In particular, high levels of this compound were found in fish from Lake Balkyldak, which is located adjacent to the Pavlodar Chemical Plant. The mercury enters Lake Balkyldak as a result of soluble The Pavlodar Plant is Kazakhstan is located in Central Asia, contaminated with mercury bordered on the north by Russia; on the east by China; on as a result of industrial the south by Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, and Turkmenistan; and activity during the 1970s, on the west by the Caspian Sea and Russia (see Figure 1).

  • This Is a Highly Dangerous Precedent"
    FORUM 18 NEWS SERVICE, Oslo, Norway http://www.forum18.org/ The right to believe, to worship and witness The right to change one's belief or religion The right to join together and express one's belief This article was published by F18News on: 3 February 2009 KAZAKHSTAN: "This is a highly dangerous precedent" By Mushfig Bayram, Forum 18 News Service <http://www.forum18.org> Kazakhstan has resumed jailing Baptists, Forum 18 News Service has learnt. Yuri Rudenko from Almaty Region was the third unregistered Baptist pastor to be jailed for three days for refusing to pay fines for unregistered worship. Baptists point out that this breaks Kazakhstan's Constitution, but officials have refused to discuss this with Forum 18. The jailing took place as Elizaveta Drenicheva, a Russian working as a missionary for the Unification Church (commonly known as the Moonies), was jailed for two years for sharing her beliefs. Other religious believers who strongly disagree with her beliefs, as well as human rights defenders, are alarmed by the jail sentence. "This is a highly dangerous precedent," one Protestant who preferred not to be identified told Forum 18. "It seems to me that any believer who preaches about sin and how to be saved from it could be convicted in the same way." Baptist churches in Akmola region have also been raided and their members questioned, and another Baptist pastor is facing the threat of jail tomorrow (4 February). Kazakhstan has punished a third unregistered Baptist pastor in Almaty Region with three-day imprisonment, Forum 18 News Service has learnt.
