Novak.Serial Port. Amirzhan Kosanov – «Dangerous inconsistency“I understand that, in addition to the problems that arose during his presidency, Tokayev is forced to take responsibility for the terrible consequences of Nazarbayev’s rule, due to missed opportunities to create a sustainable and diversified economy: for decades, money was not invested in infrastructure and its renewal (hence the man-made disasters, explosions and large-scale breakdowns). But why is official propaganda silent about this important aspect, why is there no honest admission of all Nazarbayev’s mistakes, for which Tokayev is now criticized? Who will silence our would-be propagandists, who by their function should explain to the people the main reasons for the current critical situation, or, more precisely, point out its culprits?

The quality of expenditure planning, the effectiveness of budget programs and the control over their use are in a systematically bad state. In the fall we will talk about quarantine, but we don’t really know how to save. In one of the flash cost optimization projects, the Ministry of Economy outlined its claim for additional billions of dollars – for research. As if their similar “research” was ever useful on the farm? As we can see, the quality of economic policies has been deteriorating in recent years and the country is falling into a vicious circle.

Or, on the contrary, will it ruin his career? There are enough cases in our country, but it is difficult to draw conclusions. This is because we also have unique circumstances here.
