Population increased in Pavlodar region due to migrants and kandas

Today, within the framework of a working trip to Pavlodar region, Deputy Prime Minister of the Republic of Kazakhstan Yeraly Tugzhanov got acquainted with the main directions of the regional migration policy.

As part of the Enbek State Program for the Development of Productive Employment and Mass Entrepreneurship, 11,388 people or 2,413 families moved to the region from 2017 to 2021. Of these, 2162 kandas and 9226 immigrants. The allocated annual regional quota for the reception of migrants and candases is being fulfilled here by 100%.

1. Tugzhanov noted that the Government is creating all the necessary conditions for the integration of citizens in a new place, creating conditions for moving, providing benefits, opening jobs.

“Pavlodar region is a leader in the implementation of the resettlement program, for which I thank the leadership of the region. Under this program, people are resettled not only from labor-surplus regions, but also from abroad. But we must not forget about the contribution to the good of the Motherland,” the Deputy Prime Minister said.

For example, the family of Saydualiev Dinara moved to the suburban village of Kenzhekol from the city of Shymkent. Her husband got a job at the "Adi" farm. They have six children: five boys and one girl. They were paid subsidies for moving almost two million tenge.

The Saidualiev family are very happy with the reception and urge their fellow countrymen to move to the Pavlodar region.

“Six more families from the Turkestan region arrived with us. I am grateful to everyone who helped us with the move and provided all possible assistance,” said D. Saidualieva.

This year, the quota for receiving immigrants and candases is 3,600 people. To date, 1,257 people, or 34.9% of the plan, have been included in the regional quota. The largest number of migrants arrived in the cities of Pavlodar and Ekibastuz. In Aktogay, Pavlodar and Uspensky districts of the region, the quota is above average.

The resettlement of the labor force is carried out from all labor-surplus regions of the country. The leaders are Turkestan, Almaty and Zhambyl regions. Most of all, specialists came here in the field of education and agriculture, as well as health care.

Of the 536 able-bodied citizens, 369 people were employed in permanent jobs, six people received grants and one person was sent for training. The largest number of migrants settled in rural areas and in the cities of the region.
