“Among those present in this hall are teachers of the Kazakh language and literature who make a significant contribution to educating an educated, creative and patriotic generation.

Experienced educator Zhanna Levkovich has been awarded the Order of "Qurmet", while young teacher Maria Surina has received the "Shapagat Medal".

Without exaggeration, the work of helicopter pilot Akerke Shopatayeva can be described as invaluable. She has repeatedly taken part in extinguishing forest fires and other rescue operations, demonstrating a high level of professionalism. Today, she is being awarded the "Yeren Enbegi Ushin" Medal.

In addition, Ms. Kanon Suzuki, a renowned artist from Japan who actively contributes to the development of ballet in Kazakhstan, has been specially invited to this ceremonial event. I have awarded her the "Yeren Enbegi Ushin" Medal.

We take pride in our fellow citizens who make an enormous contribution to the prosperity of our Motherland, and we hold them up as an example for the younger generation.

The phrase ‘The Motherland begins with the family’ carries a profound meaning. Kazakhstani women strengthen the well-being of the home and raise a достойное new generation. They combine their sacred mission within the family with an honorable duty to the Fatherland.

I believe this vividly reflects their love for their people and is the result of great dedication. Stability, unity and well-being in every family are the foundation of our country’s prosperity.”
