Speaking at the meeting, Mamay Kanievich noted that the role of civil servants in the full implementation of the state function in Kazakhstan was enormous. It should be noted that all the work of such a large megalopolis as Almaty is carried out by district akimats with 30-40 employees, where they conscientiously perform their duties without violation of ethical principles in market conditions. The contribution of higher education institutions to nurturing the country`s loyal future, true patriots of their people, will be enormous. Deputy Head of the Department of Agency for Anti-Corruption in Almaty U.N. Kuramaev commented on the development of anti-corruption policy, paradigmatic changes since 1998, as well as the main provisions of the approved concept for 2022-2026 and the resulting major challenges facing higher education institutions in the country.

He noted what preventive and repressive measures are in place, the new institutions of corruption prevention and the risks inherent in corruption. Summing up the meeting, the Vice-Rector for Social Development Shyngys Nurlanov emphasised that the slogan of the Alash leaders «Serving the nation is from the character» is relevant at the present stage, that those who take such a stand against corruption win. The meeting was held at a high organisational level.
