During a working visit, he met with President Nazarbayev and senior Kazakh officials to discuss cultural, economic and trade issues of common concern. A joint business council was also formed to enhance trade and investment exchange between the two countries.

The two countries also signed a twinning agreement between Amman and Astana to develop economic and cultural relations and promote the exchange of expertise in areas related to city planning, environment protection education, health and infrastructure.

Five more bilateral agreements will be signed when President Nazarbayev's travels to Amman this week.
