On behalf of the university, I participated in the cultural-familiarization program of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan “MIRAI-2018” on the topic “Personnel in the field of legislative power”, designed for young professionals from various countries of Asia, the Pacific, North America, Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean. About 40 young specialists from eight countries of Central Asia and the Caucasus, namely Kazakhstan, Georgia, Armenia, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan and other countries, received invaluable experience from professional lawyers and the best industry of the country of the rising sun. From Kazakhstan there were 5 people of different specializations: a judge, a prosecutor, a specialist of the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection of the Republic of Kazakhstan and a master of law at one of the Russian universities. It was a wide exchange of experience and cultural and intellectual exchange. We got acquainted with the work of government agencies, took part in court sessions.Visited universities where professors recognized as the best international lawyers work. A lot of the nuances learned about the resolution of investment disputes. Following the trip, our team presented a project where a comparative analysis was made between the legal structure of Japan and Kazakhstan. Personally, I did a comparative analysis of legal education in Kazakhstan, in particular the University of the SDU, as well as conducting legal business in the republic based on lectures and seminars held at the magistracy by the international law firm INTEGRITES. Japan appreciated the activities of the university. We have reached an agreement on mutual cooperation in the exchange of students, undergraduates and teachers for internship. The trip was productive. The opportunity to participate in the MIRAI program is available to everyone who passes the selection process. The program is aimed not only for lawyers, there are separate programs for philologists, economists, engineers and other specialties. I would like to have such programs as much as possible.
