Some 70 percent of defense orders in Kazakhstan are placed with domestic enterprises, said Aset Kurmangaliyev, the deputy minister of defense and aerospace industry.

He said that in Article 3 of the legislation on state defense orders there is a list of services and properties that should be included in the state defense orders.
"Basically, we are currently working on a state order with the Defense Ministry, the National Guard, and there are a number of orders from law enforcement agencies," Kurmangaliyev added.
The Defense and Aerospace Industry Ministry of Kazakhstan will control, place and form state defense orders starting next year. These powers can be transferred to the Defense and Aerospace Industry Ministry from the Ministry of Defense after approval of a new bill.
