Strategy Kazakhstan 2050 Presidential Address by Nursultan Nazarbayev, December 14, 2012

1. Creating a professional state apparatus
We expect to create a professional state apparatus, for which, according to
the principles I have announced today, service to the people and State is
paramount.
We should qualitatively improve the personnel of the public service through
introduction of improved methods of selection and professional training.
Decision makers at the State level should meet the following requirements:
· Be accountable for not only the short-term, but also the long-term
results.
· Be accountable for the multiplicative effect of the management
decision.
· Align with the fair competition rules and freedom of entrepreneurship.
· Exclude double interpretation of the functional duties of public
servants. Clear legislative regulation of their activities.
