We acknowledge great political and social significance of Aitys to the development of Kazakh spirituality. Therefore the arts of performing Aitys in the course of several centuries has turned to the monumental heritage of Kazakh traditional history. Moreover, it does not only embody cultural heritage of Kazakhstan, but now turned to the annual national political contest.

Taking into account strong presence of Aitys in Kazakhstan and it's role as a sustainable brand of traditional Kazakh culture, we express our full support to the promotion of the nomination to the UNESCO List of Intangible Cultural Heritage.
