Strategy Kazakhstan 2050 Presidential Address by Nursultan Nazarbayev, December 14, 2012

1. Introducing “zero tolerance” principle towards disorder
The State should be bound to the zero tolerance policy towards disorder.
Developed society starts from discipline and order everywhere: comfortable
doorways, accurate backyards, clean streets and friendly faces.
We should not tolerate even the smallest infringements, hooliganism, and
incivility as they disturb public order and decrease the quality of life.
Feeling of disorder and permissiveness creates grounds for more serious
crimes. This is why an atmosphere of intolerance to minor infringements is
an important step towards enhancing social security and the fight against
the crime.
We need to overcome ignorance of the law and engage society in the
public order preservation process.
We need to connect destructive social behavior with employment
opportunity. We must introduce punishment measures for hooligan
behavior in public places that will be reflected on their criminal files and
should be considered by business at employment and promotion.
This must become a normal part of public life
