More than four billion tenge will be allocated from the Special State Fund to complete the water supply system in the Aral district of the Qyzylorda region. This money was taken from Kazakhstani oligarchs as part of the return of illegally acquired assets, Orda.kz reports.
According to the government, 3.7 billion tenge of returned assets will be used to complete the construction of a water pipeline in the villages of Tokabay and Abay, where more than three thousand people live.
