Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbayev has instructed the government to develop the country's new anti-crisis plan.

"I have instructed the government to develop a new anti-crisis programme if all our expert resources reduce," Nazarbayev said at an industrial forum, held in a videoconference format, today. "The oncoming crisis is a kind of test drive for all the governors and ministers."

He said that the second wave of the crisis will set the pace for the economy of many countries. "The expert community is talking about this," he said. "If this happens, we must be ready."

According to the president, the matter rests in the need to restart the state programme of forced industrial and innovative development.

"Restarting the state programme is necessary for us not to remain behind tomorrow," he said. "It also requires reconsidering the education system because we need to know what professions we need within the third industrial revolution that is brewing in the world and will appear in our country."

The president said that a new monitoring system and new analytics are required.
