JICA selected and dispatched a study team headed by Mr. Takumi TOGASHI of HOKKAIDO INTELLECT TANK between October, 2009 and July, 2010. The team held discussions with the persons concerned of food processing industry as well as the officials concerned of the Government of the North Kazakhstan Oblast and conducted field surveys at the study area. Upon returning to Japan, the team conducted further studies and prepared this final report. I hope that this report will contribute to the promotion of cluster development in food processing industry of the Republic of Kazakhstan, especially North Kazakhstan Oblast, and to the enhancement of friendly relationship between two countries.

  • INTERNATIONAL ELECTION OBSERVATION MISSION Republic of Kazakhstan – Early Presidential Election, 9 June 2019
    INTERNATIONAL ELECTION OBSERVATION MISSION Republic of Kazakhstan – Early Presidential Election, 9 June 2019 STATEMENT OF PRELIMINARY FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS PRELIMINARY CONCLUSIONS The 9 June early presidential election in the Republic of Kazakhstan offered an important moment for potential political reforms, but it was tarnished by clear violations of fundamental freedoms as well as pressure on critical voices. While there were seven candidates, including for the first time a woman, considerable restrictions on the right to stand, and limits to peaceful assembly and expression inhibited genuine political pluralism. Despite the short time available, preparations for the election were efficiently organized and election day proceedings were orderly. However, significant irregularities were observed on election day, including cases of ballot box stuffing, and a disregard of counting procedures meant that an honest count could not be guaranteed, as required by OSCE commitments. There were widespread detentions of peaceful protesters on election day in major cities. This was the first election since the resignation of Nursultan Nazarbayev, Kazakhstan’s first and longstanding president since 1991. While the number of candidates appeared to offer political variety, few provided clear platforms and openly critical campaigns. The election took place within a political environment dominated by the ruling Nur Otan party and with limited space for civil society and opposition views. This consolidation of political power challenges the development of genuine political pluralism, as committed to in the 1990 OSCE Copenhagen Document. The election law provides a technical basis for the conduct of elections. However, the constitutionally guaranteed freedoms of assembly, expression, association, access to information, and the right to take part in political life, are considerably restricted by law.

    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: 5 July 2011 KAZAKHSTAN: "Absurd" criminal charge for praying for the sick By Mushfig Bayram, Forum 18 News Service <http://www.forum18.org> Pastor Yerzhan Ushanov of the New Life Protestant Church in Taraz could face up to two years' imprisonment if criminal charges of harming an individual's health, brought by the KNB secret police, reach court. The KNB claim a visitor to the church suffered after Pastor Ushanov prayed for him using hypnosis, the second time the secret police have brought such charges against a Protestant pastor in Jambyl Region. "This is not the first time the authorities in southern regions of Kazakhstan bring such absurd accusations against pastors for allegedly using hypnosis, while in reality all they do is pray for the sick," New Life Church members complained to Forum 18 News Service. The police Department for the Fight against Extremism, Separatism and Terrorism then raided the Church's Sunday worship after an alleged complaint of food poisoning and the KNB searched Pastor Ushanov's home. The KNB secret police, as well as the ordinary police Department for the Fight against Extremism, Separatism and Terrorism, both refused to comment on the case to Forum 18. In the second case known to Forum 18 News Service, a criminal case is being brought in Jambyl [Zhambyl] Region of southern Kazakhstan by the National Security Committee (KNB) secret police against a Protestant pastor for allegedly harming an individual's health by praying for them.

  • Samal of Semyonovka
    LETTERS FROM ECOLOGY CAMP Samal of Semyonovka Ten days in Almaty: Students gather around a The making of a passionate mentor on ecology and the environment. Camp photos: Centre for Radiation Protection and environmentalist Ecology/I. Khvoshnyanskaya BY LORA KUDAIBERGENOVA AND MADINA BAKIEVA t the height of their summer vacation in July 2005, 25 teen- agers, aged 15 to 17, set off for the big city of Almaty from Aseven different villages surrounding the former Semipalatinsk (Semey) nuclear test site in north-eastern Kazakhstan. It was the first time most of them would venture out on such a long trip — more than 20 hours by bus and by train. Each one felt special, having been handpicked to learn the rudiments of radiation safety and environmental protection at a summer camp organized by the OSCE Centre in Almaty. Once settled in their simple but comfortable quarters for the next ten days, the participants immersed themselves in lectures, a specially written textbook and interactive games. The focus of activities was not limited to keeping safe and well in radiation- contaminated areas; treasuring nature and the environment was also emphasized. The unique experience, from 9 to 19 July 2005, made a powerful impression on Samal Mashrapova, a 16-year-old in her last year of school in the village of Semyonovka in East- Kazakhstani oblast. Cut off from instant communications on her return home, she lost no time writing letters to the Almaty-based Centre for Radiation Protection and Ecology, the OSCE Centre’s partner at the summer camp. Samal’s letters reveal the frustrations and concerns, as well as the hopes and dreams, of a young adult who is suddenly seeing her world with different eyes — and who desperately wants to change it.
