Definitions

Baharul Islam

In Kazakhstan, an akim (mayor) is the head of an akimat, a municipal, district, or provincial government (mayorat), and serves as the Presidential representative. The word Akim is derived from the Arabic word حاكم which means a Ruler or a Governor.

Akims of provinces and cities are appointed to the post by the President on the advice of the Prime Minister.

Akims of other administrative and territorial units are appointed or selected to the post in an order defined by the President. He may also dismiss akims from their posts. Powers of akims ends with the introduction into the post of new-elected president of the republic. Thus, the akim continues to fulfill the duties before appointment of corresponding akim by the President of Kazakhstan.

Kyrgyzstan

    Para?tre autre chose comme jouer un r?le
    Demande beaucoup plus qu'il n'y parait
    J'en suis l'exemple m?me
    Comme une deuxi?me peau brod?e par l'habitude
    Faite sur mesure pour cacher ce que je suis
    Je ne suis rien du tout...
    Mon id?al

    Fait de toi quelqu'un d'autre
    Mais le charisme se fait - je sais - avant l'attitude...
