Over 520 billion tenge has been spent in three years on the "Aul - El Besigi" project.

“As part of the Concept for the Development of Rural Territories for 2023-2027, the project ‘Aul – El besigi’ (‘The Village – The Cradle of the Country’) is being implemented, aimed at enhancing infrastructure in rural areas. From 2019 to 2023, a total of 524 billion tenge was allocated from the national budget for this project, resulting in over 5,400 projects being carried out in 1,800 villages,” the government stated in response to a parliamentary inquiry.
