Moreover, 80 percent of employees of recreation centers on Alakol in the East Kazakhstan region have already received a coronavirus vaccination. In general, this year's season has been launched. "Work has already been carried out to clean the bottom, rescuers and policemen are on duty. There are 347 business facilities operating on the coast, a system has been developed for the location of catering points and kebabs in such a way that they are not on the Alakolsky Arbat and do not interfere with vacationers," he said.

"Since June 17, trains have been running, the number of cars has been increased to 61, the number of buses has also been increased.

After the reconstruction, the runway length will be more than two thousand meters, and Urjara Airport will be able to receive even large Embraer-type aircraft, " he said. In addition, the governor of the region instructed to deal with the shadow economy associated with the supply of products from local farms, and to comply with all the rules of trade.
