Mirzoyev’s proactive position towards strengthening cooperation in Central Asia and support of other regional states has since 2017 attracted the interest of scholars to the dynamics of regionalization in Central Asia. The consultative meetings among CA leaders, cooperation among their governments’ strategic think tanks, and official discussions on mutual visa recognition between Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan are all evidence of increased collaboration in the region. Experts and journalists in the region have started to talk about regional integration in Central Asia and the possibilities for establishing a regional organization. Although the progress in cooperation has been significant, we argue that it’s not feasible and not necessary to create regional organizations at this stage, and suggest soft institutionalism as a possible way of strengthening relations in CA. Two main research questions addressed in this paper are: (1) Why do we need a new debate on Central Asian regionalism? (2) What kind of regionalism project is viable for CA?Item Open Access CRM (CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT) SYSTEM FOR PUBLIC CATERING(Suleyman Demirel University, 2016) Olzhas Zholamanuly, Begadil SerikNowadays we have a lot of restaurants, cafes, cafeterias and etc. and also we have a lot companies which makes t he products for this restaurants, cafes, cafeterias.

Education systems, one of the domains of globalization, have experienced this obligation deeply. Therefore, states and governments have prepared their education systems with a national point of view in order to meet this demand of the era. On the other hand, at both national and international level, it is expected that standards in higher education should be determined, system should be complied with these standards and integrate themselves. However, this integration process becomes rather slow and painful for countries whose education system, e.g. Kazakhstan, stuck in first Soviet then post-Soviet and now international standards. Kazakhstan’s effort to become a part of globalizing education area like Bologna is an obvious example. In 2010, Kazakhstan joined the European Higher Education Area which was formed as part of the integration process on education first including EU Member States then other countries with some territory in Continental Europe. With 47 member countries, Bologna Process has become the largest cooperative education area of the world. Kazakhstan’s inclusion to this Process creates hope about fundamental changes in education system of Kazakhstan. However, integration studies go ahead very slowly due to many incomplete obstacles. With this study, it is expected, in general, to emphasize the effect to globalization on higher education systems of countries newly establishing their nation states as Kazakhstan and in particular, to research why Kazakhstan could not become a part of the process despite included Bologna Process of higher education. In other words, the aim is to review critically whether globalization is effective in Kazakhstan – one of the neighboring countries that globalization creates specific activity – and as an example of this whether Bologna Process is effective in higher education area, and to examine the reasons of Kazakhstan’s inclusion to Bologna Process in spite of not implementing crucial principles of the Process. The research method is based on comparative analysis examining 10 action lines of the Bologna Process and how effective the basic principles are in higher education system of Kazakhstan.Item Open Access BUS TICKET ORDERRING SYSTEM(Suleyman Demirel University, 2016) Zholamanuly O.; Begadil S.Nowadays we have a lot of problems with ticket ordering.

Informal employment in the country linked with unemployment and low living standards cause anxiety among the population about the future prospects, as well as distrust in the policies carried out by the government. Informal employment frequently links with lack of social protection, poor health and safety conditions on the work place, working poverty and tax evasion. Absence of registration of labor relationships is also connected with criminalization of Kazakhstani society. Insufficient attention of the government to the problems of informal employment does not allow getting a clear and complete picture of the issue.
