It is a great day in history of Kazakhstan. On first of May all Kazakhs celebrate their unity. The holiday began celebrated in 1996. October 18, 1995, Kazakh President Nursultan Nazarbayev signed a decree declaring May 1 a Unity Day of Peoples of Kazakhstan.
I as a reprsenter of Kazakh nation can say that on this day every year we don't work because it is a free day for all people, even students happily stay at home and don't attend their classes))) On 1st of May people in Kazakhstan are usually go to restaurants or receive their quests at home and celebrate celebrate celebrate)))))) what is really very funny, because in Russia 1st of May is a Labour Day and Spring festival. Unlike us Kazakhs on this day they work very hard!!!!
1st of May has a broader significance. It is celebrated in 141 countries. But in each country it gives a different meaning.
Despite I'm a kazakh, currently I'm a kazakg student in the UK. And today we don't have holiday. On the contrary we should study hard, so it more looks like a Labour Day in Russia!=D
