President's address lives up to people's expectations: R. Ivanova

"This year's address as well as the previous ones is the reflection of modern needs of our society. It traditionally amazes by in-depth analysis of the work done last year and wise political decisions reflected in the tasks for the Government of the country. It touches on the issues that are of interest to all of us," Ms Ivanova noted.

In her words, all conditions are currently in place: pensions and salaries grow each year.

"It is a delight to see that our country develops amid global economic crisis and constantly moves forward. The address instills people confidence in the future," she added.

"It is full of guiding principles that will help Kazakhstan become one of the safest and most comfortable countries for people to live in. We will make every possible effort to fulfill those plans. I wish our country prosperity in the years to come," R. Ivanova concluded.
