School deputy advocates for delaying final bell in educational institutions
In a notable proposal, Amanjol Altai, Deputy of the Amanat party, has suggested moving the date of the last school bell in Kazakh schools away from May 31. This day is significant in Kazakhstan as it marks the Day of Remembrance of the Victims of Famine and Political Repressions.
Altai's proposal comes amidst a call to commemorate the tragic fate of millions of people and pay proper respect to prominent figures. He believes that the current celebration gives the impression of a festivity on the graves of the victims of repression.
The Day of Remembrance in Kazakhstan is a day to keep the terrible years in memory and draw lessons from them. Altai has proposed that meetings of ministers and akims on May 31 should commence with a remembrance of the victims, and every parent should have an educational conversation within their family. He also suggested that teachers and religious leaders should participate in these discussions.
In support of Altai's proposal, the Ministry of Education and Science of Kazakhstan has approved a decision to extend the academic year by two weeks. This extension would allow for a more comprehensive exploration of the historical significance and educational meaning of May 31.
Altai has also requested a minute of silence on the Day of Remembrance and proposed that humorous shows and concerts be replaced with informative programs on TV channels on May 31. He further suggested publishing articles in mass media that comprehensively convey the historical significance and educational meaning of the day.
President Tokayev has echoed Altai's sentiments, stating that the memory of victims of political repression and famine will live forever. However, the Minister of Education and Science has asked Altai to reconsider the date of the last school bell ceremony, suggesting another day instead of May 31.
It is important to note that Kazakhstan's history has had hardships and dark times that threatened the fate of the Kazakh people. Altai's proposal does not tolerate any discussion, according to the information provided. The proposed new date for the last school bell is yet to be determined.
This proposal serves as a reminder of the importance of remembering the past and learning from it, especially on days like the Day of Remembrance of the Victims of Famine and Political Repressions in Kazakhstan.
