President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev highlighted the nation’s key developments in 2024 in his New Year address, saying the past year has been eventful for Kazakhstan and was “marked by important developments,” reported the Akorda press service.
“On this truly family-oriented holiday, I first and foremost wish peace and prosperity to our country and well-being to all our fellow citizens. This past year has been eventful, marked by important developments. The comprehensive reforms we have initiated have yielded their first fruits,” said Tokayev in his 10-minute address.
Tokayev said he would “do everything” in his power to “make the coming year even more productive.”
“We will continue systemic reforms and carry out all our planned initiatives,” he said.
“The government must carry out effective work to ensure the steady growth of our economy. We need to launch new production facilities, improve conditions for doing business, continue building roads, and address issues in the utilities sector,” he said.
The government should also continue harnessing the power of digital technologies, including artificial intelligence.
“The main goal of all this work is to improve the well-being of our citizens,” said Tokayev.
