DEVELOPMENT OF THE TELECOMMUNICATIONS SECTOR IN THE ECONOMY OF KAZAKHSTAN AS THE BASIS OF THE NATIONAL MODEL OF THE INFORMATION SOCIETY

The completion of the stabilization stage of the republic's economy and its transition to a trajectory of sustainable growth create objective prerequisites for the real use of medium-term and indicative long-term planning tools in the practice of state regulation and management. An important place in the general system of long-term planning is given to the formation on a medium-term basis of a strategy for the development of large industrial complexes, one of which is the telecommunications sector, whose increasing role at the present stage is determined by the trends of globalization and informatization of all aspects of public life on a global scale. Telecommunications are an integral part of the infrastructure, the development of which, in accordance with the provisions of the Development Strategy of Kazakhstan until 2030, is assigned to one of the seven long-term priorities and should contribute to: strengthening national security; political stability; economic growth. However, the formation of planned and forecast parameters for the development of telecommunications is impossible without defining the conceptual foundations of the long-term functioning of the industry, assessing trends in the development of the telecommunications market based on internal and external factors, conducting periodization and highlighting stages of development, choosing priorities of state sectoral policy, rational evolution of the regulatory system, optimization of the legislative and regulatory framework in the industry.
