An Opinion about a political package reforms in Kazakhstan

With great interest and major respect I read President Tokayev`s statement about political reforms regarding the Presidential Republic of Kazakhstan.

The idea of strengthening the development of this young and independent country by tolerating and supporting new challenging ways of thinking and oppositional parties is another step in modernizing the democratic system.
 President Tokayev`s attempt to review different articles of the existing law will also have an impact on freedom of thinking and speech.

The abolishment of the death penalty will awaken other modern countries` approval and international reputation.

In addition, the approach of increasing social support for the people in need is an efficient way to build a modern society and augment overall welfare.

Reducing state`s businesses by allowing privatization will provide more freedom of trade, quality of products and competitive strength.
 By announcing the exchange rate of the Tenge on a monthly base Kazakhstan`s currency will become more transparent, stable and attractive for international investors.

In my opinion the reforms mentioned above will bring more prosperity, freedom and fortune to the people of Kazakhstan.

I wish the honorable president Mr. Tokayev best of luck and perseverance in accomplishing these goals for the best of this beautiful country Kazakhstan and offer my help and support when needed. 

With respectful regards
