Tour operators and guides from Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Russia, India, Pakistan, and China are entering our country en masse, operating illegally on Kazakh territory – transporting tourists in their buses, conducting excursions, and diverting clients from the Kazakh market. Meanwhile, our tour operators are prohibited from entering these countries with their passengers. Where is the level playing field?
According to experts, the state budget loses over 1 billion tenge annually. At a roundtable in Almaty, industry representatives confirmed that tourists are being picked up right at airports and taken away, with no taxes or oversight. Students from India and Pakistan are working en masse as guides, creating a dangerous image of Kazakhstan as a destination for sex tourism," stated MP Ekaterina Smolyakova.
