Sabina will participate as an honorable guest of the forum. She is now in Vietnam along with her family on an invitation of Fashion House International Vietnam,” the girl’s mother said, “The forum is held annually in various countries and our country's representatives attend them to popularise Kazakhstan as a country that occupies a worthy place in the international community.”
According to her, this year the main aim of the event was to develop a tourism cluster and to support gifted kids and young people.

Besides, since, according to Nuripa Altynbekova, Vietnamese authorities provided facilities for training to Sabina, she did not miss her trainings even in Vietnam.
The 17-year-old Kazakh athlete woke up famous after Chinese fans noticed her at the 17th Asian Junior Women's Volleyball Championship in the city of Taipei in mid July. She immediately became an Internet sensation because of her appearance. She looks very much like a character from Japanese anime.
