Tengrinews.kz - In the eGov mobile application, Kazakhstanis are asked to answer several questions regarding the topic of time change.
In particular, Kazakhstanis are asked which time zone is relevant for them personally. There are four answer options to choose from: "the current UTC+5," "UTC+6," "I don't care" and "I find it difficult to answer."
Residents of the country are also asked to answer the question of what should be done with the established time. Among the answer options: "Do not change anything, leave everything as is," "Change the time in accordance with the season (summer/winter)," "Return to the previous time." It is also suggested to indicate your answer.
In addition, users of the proposal are asked what they most often do not have time for during the day. The following answer options are offered: "Work or study," "Rest and sleep," "Spending time with family and friends," "Sports and physical activity," "Hobbies and personal interests," "Household chores," as well as your own option.
You can find the survey in the eGov mobile application by going to the "Notifications" section.
Earlier, Minister named the advantages of changing the time.
Recall: A resident of Ust-Kamenogorsk, Serikzhan Akhmetzhanov, has filed a lawsuit in the civil court of Astana against the government of Kazakhstan, demanding that the decision to change the time zone be declared illegal and revoked.
On the night of February 29 to March 1, Kazakhstan switched to a single time zone. Three months later, on June 7, a petition to cancel the time change collected the required 50 thousand signatures.
In August, the Ministry of Trade and Integration announced the final decision regarding the time zone petition. At that time, Minister Arman Shakkaliyev stated that based on substantiated scientific international studies on the positive effects of standard time zones and the absence of evidence of negative health impacts, a decision was made to deny the petition.
Kazakhstanis "attacked" the Facebook of the initiator of the time zone change
