On December 16, 1991, a new era began in the history of Kazakhstan. The country received international recognition and is now building a new economy with the most effective management system. Kazakhstan sets itself large-scale tasks, implements programmes for the development of the state and ensuring the social well-being of citizens.
Since gaining independence, the Republic of Kazakhstan has made great strides in state building, political and socio-economic development, strengthening the country's reputation in the international arena. Over the years since independence, Kazakhstan has flourished, has become the centre of the Eurasian movement.
With all my heart, I wish all Kazakhstanis a peaceful sky over their heads, prosperity and health!”
