A today's generation must well know history of the people, earth,
ancestors and draw conclusion, that well, and that badly. Every citizen must
aim to be the deserving heir of boundless earth that ancestors left in an
inheritance us.
The aim of research work: popularize
to new generation Kazakh intelligence, which worked for creation of Kazakh
state regardless to their own feelings.
Our purpose is to research one of big figures of Alash
movement – Alimkhan Ermekov, which was well-known only in the recent years. His
name is written in few works. One of the first relatives is Senkibay biy, which
descendant was Alimkhan. He was born and live in our region.
Alimkhan Ermekov is one of youngest, wise and active
figures in Alash movement. He was the member of Alashorda government, was wise
man and the first Kazakh professor of mathematics.

established Kazakh congresses in order to determine current situation and to
define future position. A.Ermekov for the first time participated in the 2nd

administration, in Semey province executive committee. He was chosen as a
member of Central Executive committee on 6-7th convocation of Kazakh
AKSR. He graduated from Tomsk technological institute in 1923 and got a
specialty of engineer of geological researches. Because he was one of those who
found Alash government, because he worked against Soviet government,
communist-repressive system, because he was member of Alashorda government, on
22 of September 1930 he was judged and stayed in jail with M.Auezov. On 20th
of April 1932 according to the order
of the Trinity of OGPU and accounting years, when he was in jail, he was
released and was taken into control by Control organs. However in 1973 A.Ermekov
again got in trouble and in 1939 he was convicted and stayed in jail until
1947. When he was released from jail he was false charged and was judged in
1954. Only on the 7th of March, 1955 General Prosecutor of KSRO
ordered to release him prematurely and in November 1957 he was totally
rehabilitated.
One of the greatest works of Alikhan Ermekov is the
work about integral bound of Kazakh autonomy. On the 17th of August
1920 there was held the conference of Public commissars union under the
chairmanship of Lenin and Kazakh people participated in it. When there were
spoken about Kazakh autonomy, A.Ermekov spoke about the condition of
Kazakhstan. He told about land and
bounds of Kazakhstan, disputed against people who had ambitious, usurper and colonial opinion, efficiently, thoroughly,
fatally proved his point of view. Occupants admitted their guilt and as a
result Lenin returned about 1 km land near Kaspiy and 10 km land near Ertis
back to Kazakh people.
In 1926 he transferred to scientific-pedagogical work
and worked as a teacher on the chair of high mathematics and dean of
mathematics and natural sciences in first Kazakh high pedagogical institute in
Tashkent during 1926-1928.
He worked as a docent in Kazakh pedagogical institute
(nowadays Almaty State university) in 1929, as a docent and professor, worked as a head of the chair in Kazakh state zoo-technological-veterinary

As
Myrzhakyp Dulatov says:
“I
step forth when they say – Alash,
I
proud when they say - Kazakh,
If
my father is Kazakh, and mother Kazakh,
Why
not I am Kazakh, too?”, our duty is to educate patriot people, who love their
land and nation.
Great men among government of Alash orda were those who originated not
conception of “dependent”, but
conceptions of “Independent people”. We had, have now and will have in future
such brave, patriot citizens as Alikhan, Alimkhan, Akhmet, Magzhan and others,
which never give up before any hardship...
We starve for independence... I think that we got independence due to the courage
and knowledge of our ancestors. Our ancestors gave us peaceful, bright days,
Alash intelligence gave us independence, and our duty is to assign our
independence, to force it, to develop our economy, to raise authority in
world-wide association.
Also, our duty, young generation’s duty is to bow down to their deeds,
we must save legacy they left after themselves, and to pass it over from generation
to generation.
Future of Independent Kazakhstan depends on us, depends on young
generation.
Nowadays young generation not only don’t research works
of figures in History, which dedicate their lives to their nation, their land,
which come across a lot of obstacles, but also don’t even know about movements for independence, for land.
However, we give our airs
that we live in peace….
Of course, it’s true, but who made it? Isn’t it true
that our future depends to our young generation?
