Tourism Ministry Distributes Mobile SIM Cards to International Visitors
*Scoop Alert! Tourism Minister Drops Major Plans for Kazakhstan 💰🇰🇿*
Hey there! Here's the lowdown on what our man, Yerbol Myrzabosynov, Minister of Tourism and Sports, had to say at a recent cabinet meeting.
Last year, Kazakhstan welcomed an impressive 15.3 million foreign visitors and over 10 million domestic tourists. And Myrzabosynov ain't about to rest on his laurels.
He explained how Almaty is already offering a sweet taste of Kazakh hospitality, literally, with tourists receiving free chocolate upon arrival. It's a smart move, as similar welcome gestures, like wine in Georgia, really help set the tone for a memorable trip.
But that's just the start. Myrzabosynov is also pushing for a game-changer: free SIM cards for tourists as soon as they touch down in the country. This would give them instant access to the web and communication, making their travels that much smoother.
And get this — the minister has proposed setting up night express routes between airports and city centers in all major Kazakh cities. This would not only boost connectivity but also align with international standards, giving tourists a seamless travel experience.
Originally, Myrzabosynov discussed a more specific topic at the meeting: the amount of money tourists spend in local stores. But he didn't stop there. Back in the summer, President Tokayev held a meeting on tourism development and highlighted both the advantages and challenges of the industry, setting clear goals for relevant agencies.
So, if you're planning a trip to Kazakhstan, things are looking pretty enticing, thanks to Yerbol Myrzabosynov and his forward-thinking plans! Subscribe to our Telegram channel for all the latest news and exclusives.
