r/Qazaq

Hi i'm from Easturkstan（or so called Xinjiang）, I have notice that some of my friends(mostly kazakhs) who choose to move to Kazakhstan are facing some kind of discrimination. For example like "Oralman" or "do you eat pork there" etc.

So my question is, why would this happened? I mean people who shown disprespect to them are mostly kazakhs too. Why this dicrimination between same race but different regions happen. Is it because of financial, social or other reason? And is there similar situation for kazakh from other countries such as Afghan, other post-soviet countries and so on?

And i have also notice that, there are discrimination in South Korea, towards Koryo-saram and Korean who from Yanbian. Does this type of actions have similarity or other how.(I don't konw if there is a subreddit for this question, i would love to ask them "korean" too )

We’ve been thinking on officializing the rules list the last couple of days, but kinda got stuck as we wanted functioning and simple for interpretation rules, and also not a wall of text, afterall it’s a subreddit, not constitution. So for now I would like post the following set for use, with time and experience we can refine/add/improve or even remove some of them that prove to be more of hindrance than use.

1. No questioning with malicious intent, baiting, provoking conflict around Kazakh ethnical identity, historical legitimacy or country’s sovereignty, territorial integrity or existence.

2. No unnecessary escalating, disruptive behaviour, verbal abuse - if you don’t respect the opponent and cannot hold a civil conversation, move on. If he violates the rules - report.

3. Posting/commenting is allowed only in Kazakh/English. Most of the active users wanted Kazakh/English subreddit, let’s try and build Qazaq space.

4. Obvious rules of internet conduct, i.e. no spam links, no fishing, no NSFW or casino stuff like promotion, etc.

UPDATE: r/Qazaqstan is ours now too, so feel free to post and interact there as well, the mod team will be the same. If anyone has any suggestions feel free to voice it as well.

Қандай қазақ кітабын әр адам оқуы тиіс деп ойлайсыздар? Абай Жолы деген сияқты алыптар. Мен қазір М. Әуезовтың "Қилы заман" повесін оқып жатырмын

Когда наши люди перестанут тянуть все вниз, освободятся от архаичных, средневековых понятий и устоев, и начнут мыслить как разумные люди?

Если в Алматы и Астане (и, возможно, в центрах других городов) такого нет, то в остальных частях страны это очень большая проблема среди школьников. И всем как будто всё равно на это. Подростки в школьные годы должны заниматься учёбой и своей личной жизнью, а не бандитской романтикой,и ещё ужаснее то что это тенденция продолжается до сих пор🫩

Hello everyone! I'm u/irinrainbows, a founding moderator of r/Qazaq.

I hope we can build a strong Kazakh online community, to be of use, entertainment and support to us and our friends. For now I would like to propose the following starting rules and discussion points for your review, please feel free to propose adjustments, additions or anything really, voice your opinion:

1. Posts, comments on questioning with malicious intent, denying or disrupting the Kazakh national identity, ethnicity, or historical legitimacy to be banned.

2. Posts, comments aimed at denying or provoking conflict around the country’s sovereignty, territorial integrity, or existence to be banned.

3. Suggest a day to hold a Kazakh speaking day, i.e. all content and responses to be in Kazakh only, from 12am to 12am, Astana time.

4. Spamming low effort posts will get you under moderators' eye, the future posts will be under heavier scrutiny.

5. As Russian is still a language of active everyday use, how do you propose to limit it's usage here, so it leaves room for a somewhat comfortable discussion but doesn't ruin all our efforts in practicing Kazakh? I am looking into limiting the number of Russian posts per day/week.

I have also contacted r/Qazaqstan moderator to see if they would be willing to transfer the rights, awaiting their decision as of now.

Right now we have one active moderator besides myself, u/qbogdy and another person from the old r/Kazakhstan team who is to start soon. (His profile history seems decent, hence he was approved to join us in our efforts).

Шетелде тұрғаныма 4 жыл болды. Карьерамды осы жерде бастағандықтан бүкіл тәжірибем мен білімімді осы жақта алдым. Енді сұрағым Қазақстанда инженерлер қалай жұмыс істейді, немен/қалай айналысады және өзара қалай сөйлеседі? Бастықтардың мінездері қандай ; + негізінен қандай стандарттар қолданылады (ГОСТ па, әлде шетелдік пе)?

4 жылдың ішінде халықаралық стандарттарға (жұмыс, білім, ғылым жағынан да) үйреніп қалғандықтан Қзда қалай болады деп уайымдап жүрм ше. өйткені техникалық қазақшам мүлдем жоқ деуге болады, техникалық орысшам да әлсіз. Сосын, қазіргі жұмысысда кәдімгідей рақаттанып жүрмін ше кейде жұмысқа кешігем, офисте тәпішкемен жүрем бастықтармен әзілдесеберем. Тіпті мен сұраған соң офиске кофемашина да алды. Осындай де Қазақстандағы жұмыс ортасы қалай болады екен деп ойлам жатырм.

Мұндай рақат не ерекше жерде жұмыс істеген соң Қздағы average фирма қалай болады екен?
Стандарттар дегенде қандай стандарттар қолданылады? Егер сату инженеры болсам немеce application engineer болсам? Клапан не сорғы салада CFD секілді құралдар қаншалықты көп қолданылады және жалпы артықшылық бола ма?

I have been living abroad for 4 years. Since I started my career here, all of my experience and knowledge were acquired in this place. Now my question is, how do engineers work in Kazakhstan? What do they do / how do they manage things, and how do they talk to each other? What are the bosses' mentalities like; + which standards are primarily used (GOST or international)?

Over these 4 years, because I’ve grown so used to international standards (in terms of work, education, and science as well), I'm honestly worried about how things will be in KZ. Because my technical Kazakh is practically non-existent, and my technical Russian is weak too. Also, I’m feeling incredibly comfortable at my current job—sometimes I show up late, I wear slippers around the office, and I just joke around with the bosses. They even bought a coffee machine for the office just because I asked for it. With all this, I'm just thinking about what the work environment will be like in Kazakhstan.

After working in such a relaxed and special place, I wonder what an average firm in KZ would be like? When it comes to standards, which ones are used? Especially if I work as a Sales Engineer or an Application Engineer? In the valve or pump industry, how widely used are tools like CFD, and would it generally give me an edge?

I hope moderators of this place from KZ, mods r/Kazakhstan definitely not from Kazakhstan.

I suggest agitating this sub in r/Kazakhstan

Баршаңызға сәлем. Мен программист болып жұмыс істеймін. Көптен бері қазақ тілінде IT/программирование жайлы арна ашу ойымда жүр. Бұған сұраныс бар-жоғына толық сенімді емеспін, бірақ бәрібір байқап көргім келеді. Не ойлайсыздар?

Всем привет. Я работаю программистом. Давно посещает мысль завести канал по проге на казахском. Не уверен что на это есть спрос но все же. Что думаете?
