ETERNAL FLAME OF VICTORY: Kazakhs hold the memory of heroes and victims of Great Patriotic War, and try to maintain the historical truth about it.

 Victory Day in Kazakhstan is a holiday that is celebrated at the highest level, which means its great significance for Kazakhstan. Despite the fact that our country for over two decades has gone through its sovereign development, we, unlike some of the other nations of the former Soviet Union, did not think it possible to give up the memory of the war, to review its results and value.

Die Hard Soldier    Society

Die Hard Soldier

It wasn’t easy for me to get hold of the Grandad for taking an interview. He was “hardly accessible”. His schedule was very tight: 90-year old veteran of war and oil industry and, since recently, newlywed Kourmanbai Dosymbetuly (or Kurmanbai-ata) is either staying out or, on the contrary, giving party in his house. I arrived to Akzhar village on Friday afternoon. I opened the door of the small tidy house and was immediately enveiled with clouds of “beshbarmak” - meat a la Kazakh. Just as I thought, Grandad again was entertaining guests in his house!   May 9 2013, 06:18 2 902 просмотрs

Among the accused were almost the whole top of local power and business elite, headed by the former governor Bergei Ryskaliyev, now called the criminal elite. Vmeste.com.kz shares its point of view on this scandalous case.

Babies of Big Beluga

Last Sunday the big beluga fish caught at the beginning of this month by fishermen of Amangeldy fishing cooperative began having labour contractions (see “The Day of Big Beluga Fish”. WKT #15, 11. 04. 2013). Unfortunately, the personnel of the Kourilkin sturgeon-breeding plant from the very beginning forecasted that the labour for 300 kg weighing beluga would be unpromising. In addition, the fish received several traumas during transportation and they couldn’t save its life.  April 25 2013, 18:02 9 897 просмотрs
