Our corporate projects continue with the Almaty Provincial Governorate. At the same time, the support provided by both MUSIAD Headquarters and the Turkish Republic Almaty Consulate General motivates us. In this context, we organized the 'Türkiye-Kazakhstan Business Forum' in Almaty with the support of our Consul General and Headquarters. and We will continue our efforts to further increase and strengthen commercial relations.
