“…Its market economy relies heavily on the oil and metal sectors. However, it has the natural and cultural resources for a thriving tourist sector (Abubakirova et al, 2016). The country can offer tourists a range of experiences and attractions (Tiberghien & Lennon, 2019).…”

“…Yet, the underdevelopment of the tourism infrastructure and questionable quality of service from tourism and hospitality service providers have, to date, also provided a barrier to further tourism development. Abubakirova et al (2016) suggest that tourism development has been hampered by the lack of an educated and qualified workforce and the lack of government support.…”

Tourism development contributes to economic development. In emerging economies like Kazakhstan, tourism development needs active entrepreneurship. As the country emerges from the post-Soviet era, there has been an increase in economic development and prosperity. Entrepreneurship in the tourism sector can drive economies forward through the creation of new tourism and hospitality businesses. The macroeconomic environment can influence entrepreneurial activity. We use an autoregressive distributed lag (ARDL) model to examine the impact of macroeconomic factors on tourism entrepreneurship in Kazakhstan. Using data from 1996 to 2018, we find that there is a positive short-run relationship between wages in the tourism sector and entrepreneurship, suggesting that wage growth in the sector attracts entrepreneurs. In the long run, however, tourism sector wages have a negative relationship with entrepreneurship, suggesting that these higher wages represent a higher cost to entrepreneurship. There is also a strong positive relationship between national income and tourism entrepreneurship in Kazakhstan. Implications of macroeconomic policy changes for Kazakhstan and other emerging economies are discussed.

“…However, tourism development remains a relatively new sector in Kazakhstan. Among the obstacles to the development of tourism in Kazakhstan are the following: inadequate price-quality ratio in comparison with foreign competitors; lack of demand for year-round tourist services; low level of competition in the tourism services market and in related industries; legislative regulation of the tourism industry and services that do not meet the requirements; difficult access to attractions; insufficient number of qualified specialists in the tourism sector [34].…”

The Socioeconomic Impact of Tourism in East Kazakhstan Region: Assessment Approach

et al. 2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The article presents a methodical approach based on an integrated assessment of the social and economic impacts of tourism for East Kazakhstan Region. The assessment was done using indicators such as the number of tourists, accommodation units, tourism facilities’ billing, and other statistical data for the period of 2009–2018. Integrated assessment performed using weighted sums of considered parameters and ordinary least squares linear regression method is applied for effectiveness prediction. Applied approaches of arithmetic (calculated) and multivariate regression modeling of the integral tourism efficiency demonstrated the same results, which mean the approach can be transferred and applied for other regions of Kazakhstan. Growing trends in tourism efficiency are derived and conclusions made on their importance for regional development. The economic and social impacts of tourism in East Kazakhstan Region increased significantly during the period from 2003 to 2018.

“…Due to its importance, numerous studies were conducted in Kazakhstan, but most of them concerned mountain regions located in the south and south-east of the country (Ziyadin and Takhtaeva, 2014;Aliyeva et al, 2019;Chernova and Sukhova, 2017;Chlachula, 2019;Kalugin et al, 2019). However, according to the government's decision, tourism is to constitute a rapidly growing sector of the economy, both at the national and regional level (Zhidkoblinova, 2013;Abubakirova et al, 2016;Tulbayeva et al, 2017), as well as with cross-border tourism, which plays an increasingly important role in the tourism services sector (Dunets et al, 2019;Więckowski and Saarinen, 2019;Cerić and Więckowski, 2020).…”

The conducted research is aimed at assessing the current state of the tourist and recreational potential of the lake system in the region of North Kazakhstan (Kazakhstan). The research included the relationship between the distribution and natural diversity of reservoirs and landscapes and the density of the transport network of the studied region in the administrative division of the region. The aim of the research undertaken is to indicate the spatial differentiation of the conditions for the development of tourism in relation to the degree of lake density and transport accessibility. The quantitative and qualitative characteristics of the lakes in terms of spatial diversity and transport accessibility in the region were presented. The analysis of the natural and recreational potential, with the use of statistical methods, satellite images, comparative analysis and field studies, made it possible to identify lake ecosystems that are already used or recommended for use as objects in tourism, as well as in the national economy. The analysis of the road network allows to conclude that its density, despite the higher indicators than the national average, does not fully allow the use of the region's tourist potential and may constitute a barrier to its development.
