Kazakhstan's Unregulated Online Freight: A Gateway for Illegal Activities?
Kazakhstan grapples with the unregulated online freight industry, raising concerns about illegal activities. A recent report by IA "Azattyq Ruhy" highlights the ease with which weapons, narcotics, and even human remains can be transported via these platforms. "Digital platforms for freight transport in Kazakhstan are practically unregulated," stated a member of parliament, emphasizing the vulnerability. While the Ministry of Transport has initiated regulatory efforts, the video reveals that illegal shipments are primarily detected post-factum during special operations. A new law concerning postal services aims to improve monitoring, but officials admit that the problem is far from solved. The report underscores the urgent need for comprehensive regulation to curb illegal activities and ensure public safety.
