Today in KarIU was held the next «Hour of Integrity» of the Anti-Corruption Agency on the topic «Eternal Heritage – Mukagali Makatayev».

The online lesson is based on the works of the great poet, based on justice and honesty, patriotism and respect for the country.

February 9 this year marks 90 years (1931-1976) since the birth of the great Kazakh poet Mukagali Makatayev.

Makatayev’s work is the golden fund of Kazakh poetry. The talent, born in the first half of the twentieth century, absorbing the national origins in spirit and body, became the most beloved poet of his people.

As the poet himself said, «Poetry must begin with love and end with decency», thus he called on people to be honest, kind, to bring up love for the Motherland in the young generation, respect their native land and native language, honor the elders and appreciate every moment of peacetime.

During the online lecture, young people got acquainted with the poet’s patriotic poems.

The theme of the Motherland and native nature occupies a key place in the poet’s work. In his works, he said that a person can live without a wife, mother, without children, relatives, but without a homeland … he cannot live. A man without a homeland is like a beast without a hole, a bird without a nest. At today’s «Hour of Integrity», through the poetry and works of the poet Mukagali, reflections on patriotism and personal dignity are conveyed.

After all, there is no doubt that any young man who has managed to put these thoughts in his mind will follow the path of honesty and justice.

Mukagali Makatayev raised contemporary Kazakh poetry to a new artistic level. His work is free from ideological and political sentiments.

Studying his works, we learn to love and protect the Motherland, protect nature, love people, appreciate mothers and loved ones.
