Kazakhstan has Difficult Situation with Jet Fuel for Civil Aviation

Kazakhstan has nine airlines offering scheduled passenger and cargo flights, 25 air charter companies, and 24 companies
                           that perform aviation work. Airlines in the first half transported 374,000 passengers and 6,700 tons of cargo and mail, down
                           41% and 33% year-on-year respectively. Passenger turnover totaled 1.069 billion passenger-kilometers and cargo turnover totaled
                           38.2 million ton-kilometers. Airports in the first half handled 512,200 passengers and 16,800 tons of cargo and mail, including
                           210,600 passengers and 16,800 tons of cargo on international routes, down 59% and 9% year-on-year. Transit flights through
                           Kazakhstan totaled 39.067 million aircraft-kilometers, up 21% year-on-year. The biggest problems for airlines include the
                           imperfect laws that do not coincide with international laws, the low buying power of individuals, and the significant depreciation
                           of equipment. Most of the country's airports with the exception of Astana and Almaty require runway overhauls, but the airports
                           lack the money to accomplish this on their own.
                           

The immediate priority will be to modernize airports to improve flight safety and expand the transit potential.
                           Kazakhstan will focus on developing the airport in the capital. An airport complex is being built under a project to reconstruct
                           the Astana airport with funding from the Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC). The bank provided 30.7 billion tenge,
                           20% of which will be provided as a loan and 80% as a grant out of the budget. This will create a modern complex that meets
                           international standards. The Kazakh budget for 2004 includes 1.5 billion tenge to reconstruct the runways at Aktobe Airport
                           to be completed next year. As of July 1, 7.749 billion tenge had been spent to develop civil aviation, or 93.9% of planned
                           financing for the period.

                           by a company from the Netherlands and should be completed by late

A new terminal building for Almaty International Airport is expected to
                           be completed by September of 2001, Almaty city Akim Viktor Khrapunov
                           said. City authorities are ready to allocate USD 6 million for the
                           construction project, with banks loans making up the remaining USD 15-18
                           million needed for the project.
                           Plans for the terminal include a building constructed of glass and metal
                           designed to match up with other world airports and built in line with
                           international standards. Khrapunov named airport buildings in Munich and
                           Frankfurt-am-Main as models for the project.
                           Foreign construction companies will likely be involved in implementation
                           of the project. Hungarian, Austrian, German and French construction
                           companies have already submitted bids on the project. A winner will be
                           selected by the end of this month. Russian firm Mosaeroproekt is
                           co-ordinating the project. (Golden Eagle Partners) from TEB 20.06.00
