On the morning of July 16, Cao Debiao, President of China Tianying, met with Kazakh Prime Minister Oljas Bektenov in Astana. Both sides held in-depth discussions on deepening China-Kazakhstan green environmental cooperation and advancing waste-to-energy projects in key cities, reaching important consensus. Senior officials from Kazakhstan's Ministries of Ecology, Energy, and Foreign Affairs attended the meeting.

PM Bektenov welcomed President Cao and his delegation, noting that the two countries share a permanent comprehensive strategic partnership with deepening cooperation. Kazakhstan has thoroughly reviewed CNTY's industrial capabilities, and a government delegation previously conducted an on-site inspection, expressing high recognition for the company's full-chain waste treatment services.

President Cao thanked the Kazakh government for its trust and support, and briefed the PM on CNTY’s industrial layout, core strengths, and overall investment plan in Kazakhstan. He highlighted the company's globally leading waste-to-energy technology and its first mechanical grate incineration project in China's alpine region. Leveraging extensive hands-on experience, the company is fully capable of operating under Central Asia's low-temperature conditions, with unique advantages in designing, building, and operating environmental projects in cold climates. CNTY stands ready to engage in comprehensive, multi-sector green cooperation with Kazakhstan, systematically delivering high-standard waste-to-resource, urban environmental services, water treatment, construction waste disposal, medical waste treatment, sludge treatment, and new energy projects, to help improve Kazakhstan's green environmental industry system.

PM Bektenov affirmed the cooperation prospects and made on-site arrangements, instructing relevant government departments to provide full support for CNTY's waste-to-energy projects to ensure timely delivery.

This meeting marks a major milestone in Central Asian market expansion, signalling that its investment and cooperation in Kazakhstan have entered a substantive stage. Going forward, CNTY will seize this opportunity to accelerate all work, striving to set a benchmark for China-Kazakhstan green cooperation and contribute to high-quality Belt and Road cooperation and the China-Kazakhstan community with a shared future.
