"I'd like to thank Dauren Diyarov, who headed the agency for more than nine years, for his work. The mass media community knows Assel as a professional and a talented leader.

She worked within the structures of regional and national TV channels, she has a great experience in news editing, and she also worked as an editor in chief of Tengrinews.kz portal.

I would like to wish her success and realization of all her plans. The competition among news agencies is extremely high now, therefore Kazinform, the agency that has almost a century-long history, will have to face a serious modernization in order to get its place among the top news agencies," D. Abayev noted.
