I completely agree with the first guy interviewed. This portrayal is not about Kazakhstan and Kazakhs, rather about Americans.

1st guy nailed it. The humour is mostly on Americans.

Damn, dude struggles with his native tounge, then busts out with perfect English.

I think it’s funny how in the movie, Kazakstan is depicted as an Eastern-European country with a Slavic looking population, when in reality Kazak people are closer to Mongolian/Asian in their physical appearance.

Borat never attacked Kazakhstan, he just randomly chose it. Borat was to make fun of America. I can promise that as a South African, Borat showed me the ridiculous side of America and also caused me to look up and learn about the REAL Kazakhstan which I never would have if Borat hadn't brought attention to it. Anyways, love from South Africa🇿🇦

We don't laugh at Kazakhstan We laugh at the characters Kazakhstan is respected as others countries.

Kazakhs seem like real humble and down to earth people. Their level of English is very impressive.

The first guy is such a smart man, and great English.

👍 So cool when the man said his opinions in English

I can understand how people from Kazakhstan get offended by using their nation as the origin for Borat. However, the theme and irony is about the horrible reality of the “US&As”. I am sure Sasha could have pick Guatemala or Armenia as the homeplace for Borat, it changes nothing. The jokes and cruel reality is in the McDonald lovers.

Wonderful, i'd love to go someday and attend the Running of the Jew.

Kazakhstan is so developed. Look at the Infrastructure, the Roads, the Cleanliness 😍

We need more people, like the first dude, in this world. Great mind and thinking!

To my many Kazakh friends, the movie is nothing like Kazakhstan. I know this because I have travelled all over Kazakhstan and I have been there many times. It’s a beautiful country with very friendly and gracious people. Please do not take this movie as insulting. The character is really insulting the west. I have never met anyone like Borat in Kazakhstan

I shocked by the beauty and sophistication of the Kazakh cities when I searched on Google, you deserve all respect and love. Thanks Borat ;)

I've been in Almaty - beautiful city, and Kazakhs are great and very friendly people. I think Borat is just popularising Kazakhstan and it can be good for a country) Greetings from Ukraine!

I think Kazakh people in this video are very beautiful ppl. I think when borat made his first movie alot of people didnt know too much about kazakhstan but we know it is a beautiful country so the movie is irrelevant in that respect.

The film isn't about Kazakhstan, but about shining a light on America's attitudes, ignorance, and prejudice. By the way, the Kazakh women look beautiful! Very nice! Wawaweewa!

I'm from Kazakhstan and I personally find borat very funny, we are a developing country that does not at all represent Kazakhstan but it is still very funny and it makes more fun of Americans than Kazakhstanis

Kazakhstan people are really good looking, and the eyes are pretty.

The joke isn't on Kazakhs; Borat is a crude metaphor or shorthand for the outsider, of which people know nothing. In the same way, if Baron Cohen was pretending to be from Mars, the joke wouldn't be at the expense of Martians, but on the reactions of the chawbacons he interacts with and exposes. No cruelty was inflicted on the glorious nation of Kazakhstan, please relax. ....that first guy who effortlessly slipped into perfect English is all the evidence anyone needs about your people and country.

I am not from Kazakhstan or US, and I just wanted to say that no one in their right mind would believe the image of Kazakhstan portrayed in Borat. We all know that Borat's country is really a fictional one. Also the film is really a criticism of United States not Kazakhstan. I love how some Kazakhs get this and display great sense of humor, magnanimity and intellect.

I love Kazakhstan. I will visit in the future when the pandemic is over. I want to learn about their culture.

wow do more of these such street vids; always a pleasure to see what the real kazakhstan is like

American people are way more in their bubble and have stereotypical knowledge of foreign nations than anyone from Europe, they think like: England it's all posh, royal and tea; France is this crazy love wonderland and everyone eats cheese and drinks wine; while Italy would be this tiny village where everyone is frinedly and eats pizza.

Nice to see a video showing actual Kazakhs. Ethnic Kazakhs look like Genghis Khan. Of course there are still a lot of ethnic Russians in Kazakhstan as a remnant of it once being part of the Soviet Union.

The first man in the video was right. I didn't know what Kazakhstan was. Until I watched Borat.

Everyone knows he’s highly sarcastic and doesn’t look down at your country. If anything I’m more interested in visiting now.

Not going to lie, Borat made me think Kazakhstan was just sand and mountains. It actually looks like a nice place.

I have never met anyone in Europe that thought Borat was about the real Kazakhstan. People are more educated than that. Like the first guy said, it's been good for the tourism and now I wanna go there too as soon as this pandemic is over.

great video. i loved the reaction of that man who said it is important sometimes to laugh at ourselves. i wholeheartedly agree. awsome video. subscribed.

that 1st guy tho, omg. so much respect i have for him, very mature look on the matter. very deep and thought out view, not rushing nor aggressive. looking at the beautiful side of things. very inspiring. overall, this video covers quite every kind of peoples' views on the matter. good job!

I never heard Kazakhstan till Borat film many years ago! I did research about Kazakhstan and went there last year! I love it there!

Because of the film, many began looking up Kazakhstan and appreciating its strategic and cultural importance. I've always been fascinated with Central Asia and I hope to visit one day. I'm glad I found your channel (because I've been watching anything Borat-related afer watching Borat 2).

I enjoyed watching the video, thanks! :)

Oh damn just discovered this! Nice channel! Subbed! Keep it up 🤓

It's funny because I think something the first man you interviewed really applies to Americans nowadays - "you have to have self-sarcasm...your nationality....you shouldn't take very seriously". I think Americans get caught up in the idea that we're the 'greatest country on earth' so much that sometimes we refuse to see its flaws. If anything, Borat 2 is more aimed at making fun of Americans, and I think most Americans understand that the 'Kazakh' people portrayed in the movie are just an abstraction of a 'foreigner' - the end of the films do have a disclaimer saying that it doesn't actually represent Kazakhstan or it's people. But I get how it would be insulting to people - I particularly enjoyed the sassy woman at 7:26 lol This is such a great video, cool to see other parts of the world via KZfaq since Americans aren't allowed anywhere right now 😩😷

It’s nice to see real Kazakhs. Seems like really nice people. I think Borat is brilliant. Didn’t really know much about Kazakhstan before Borat. I know it’s all fiction. Sacha actually makes fun of the West, the Americans, the hypocrisy of certain people. People of Kazakhstan shouldn’t take it personally. Greetings from Canada ❤️

Kazakh supermarket tour would be cool video, =) This video is great!

Glad I found you channel continue to post.

I remember I had a friend from Kazakhstan, she worked at the restaurant Nextdoor to where I worked. She was excited to see Borat but after she cried because she thought everyone in America will think she’s from a village where the age of consent is 6. True story.

I am Kazakh and live in Almaty. I really liked the movie Borat, especially it was funny at the beginning. I understand that this film does not ridicule Kazakhstan, but ridicules the Americans themselves (perhaps I don't remember the Jews either, I'm sorry if I made a mistake). But still, after I saw that several countries celebrated "Borat Day", I was stunned to see how people trample our state flag, and put it like panties on an inflatable Borat in London. I wondered "why?", "Why are they doing this?" Please do not do this, you are insulting the whole country and its nation.

I'm kazakh and I think kazakhs should calm the f down and laugh a little, Sacha is not trying to humiliate your nation its ridiculous, he did brilliantly show the western view of the world and yes the ignorant will take it all literally ( the point of comedy imho), meh, so what?!

This channel deserves many more subscribers

Dimash is my fetish! I am incredibly happy, thanks to this I began to immerse myself in Kazakhstan, namely, I read books, history and, of course, I study the Kazakh language, given that I am Spanish and know Russian, I want to understand how to be Kazakh

Wow. The women are insanely attractive with that asian/western mix look.

this is amazing!!

Salta you’re beautiful :) So happy Borat sheds light on such a beautiful country. Hope to visit and meet you one day 🙃🙃🙃

It seems Kazakhs are openminded, well-educated and welcoming people. Not to mention they are beautiful. It's actually on my travel radar (not because of Borat), i would love to visit Kazakhstan someday! Very Nice! 😉❤🙏

Very few people will come away from the movie thinking that this is how Khazakstan really is in real life, it's pretty ridiculous to think about it honestly. I hope it brings more people to understand what the people and culture is really like there. I think part of the reason he chose Kazakhstan is BECAUSE very few people understand it well and it's incredibly foreign, and also a bit of a funny sounding name to Americans.

Just came back from Almaty a couple weeks ago. Gorgeous place, good people. Wish the Aral was still around though.

The first dude is very smart and have a very good sense of humour and is very open minded

5:58 girls acent very perfect, her english is very clear!!!!wow, Im proud of our kazakhs girls!!!Go ahead!!!

Wow, what intelligent, beautiful people.

What beautiful people and country. I'd love to go there someday. Love from Tunisia 🇹🇳

The interviewer’s face lit up when the first interviewee whipped out his English

Make Kazakhstan Great Again! Much love from a Balkan person living in North America (not US)

Borat claims that he's from Kazakhstan, but actually, it represents the stereotypical hyperbolized Eastern European/Balkan figure. I wouldn't be offended if I was a Kazakh.

If you want to see a great film that is filmed in Kazakhstan, see "Tulpan." It's in Russian with English subtitles. It will make you fall in love with the Kazakh people and you will be dazzled by the scenery.

Like the first guy in the interview said it’s actually a good PR for Kazakhstan. I didn’t kno anything about Kazakhstan prior to watching Borat. It got me curious , I surfed the Internet. It turns out Kazakhstan is a beautiful country with amazing people polar opposite of how the movie has portrayed it, which I knew and any person would have known if they had any common sense. Then again if you know Sacha Baron Cohen the guy who played Borat, he’s deservingly famous for playing over the top characters. Another thing one should kno is he is Jewish himself. Therefore one should kno Borat is nothing but a fictional character who happens to be from Kazakhstan. Also the main goal of the movie was to show true Color of America, deeply rooted racism that exist within. Borat is not a movie about Borat and Kazakhstan, it’s a statement about America.To end it on good note Kazakhstan is amazing and don’t be hating on Borat. Its art, it’s cinema.

OMG! I just love all the girls' hair styles! So gorgeous

Kazakh people are well-groomed and dressed. They are a mix of cute and classy.

My research of Kazakhstan brought me here. I have plans to visit Central Asia starting with Kazakhstan when this pandemic is over. Trying to learn some basic Russian as well.... Stay safe always!

First guy was spot on, let’s laugh at ourselves.. he just chose that country at random, to make it seem more realistic. it’s really about a fictional country in a sense,he doesn’t have I’ll feelings about the country, Cohen is an intelligent,peaceful and kind person, listen to his speeches when he’s out of character. It’s just comedy.

"have you seen Borat ?" "No I have not" "What do you think about it" "I don' t like it !"

I like the first guy said it perfectly and the fact he got excited explaining that the borat movies helped Kazakhstan get a little bit more intrest from the rest of the world I am glad there are people who just laugh at the humor

Wow didn't know Kazakh women were this beautiful!

I really respect how metered and well thought-out many people's responses were. I'm an American, but I actually first saw Borat while I was stationed with the Air Force right on the border in northern Kyrgyzstan. I immediately recognized that his depiction of the region had no basis in reality, of course, but in the end, I always considered the Borat movies spend more time making fun of America than Kazakhstan, because the whole point is to bring out the xenophobia of ignorant Americans who hear any country ending in "stan" and assume it's dirty and backwards. In fact, I think that's exactly WHY he chose to play a Kazakh. That being said, I haven't been back to Kyrgyzstan since I helped shut the base down in 2014, and I want to go back someday. I'd like to visit Kazakhstan as well whenever I do.

So everyone in this country is just stunning? The country and people are equally as beautiful.

I was in Shymkent, Kazakhstan in 2006 when the first Borat movie came out. We couldn’t believe it! I am now in Almaty, Kazakhstan when Borat 2 came out!

I am moving to Kazakhstan 🥳 It looks like the perfect place 🎈

Kazakhstan has precious living Diamond known as Prince DIMASH KUDAIBERGEN, he gonna show the world the beauty of Kazakh culture and his angelic voice from heaven

First guy understood it all! I agree with him, self-humour is important, I'm italian and personally I find Family Guy sketches about Italians awesome

- Have you watched Borat? - No - So what you think about it? - It's awful

excellent cover miss..!

*_Finally! An interview that has been in my compartment for years!_*

A lot of varied reactions!

The first guy had so many great insights.

I’m Australian and I love Kazakhstan, I love Kazakh music, I actually play Dombra, it’s the most amazing instrument, I just love how you took borat slogan “Very nice” and use it for your tourism advertising, that’s so cool!

I like this video🙂God bless to the Kazakhstan people❤👍🤲🤝🙏

The first guy got it spot on. Borat gets me very EXCITE! I think the movie has brought attention to Kazakhstan but Dimash is doing a great job as well! His version of Samaltau, simply beautiful! Btw Im an American and have watched Borat 2. Its hilarious, and pokes fun more at Americans and a wider ignorance of what one might think Kazakhstan culture is like. We all know its comedy and comedians take ideas and wildly exaggerate them, which is what makes something funny. I do not think its true of Kazakhs the way Borat portrays them.

Greetings from hazaras to our beloved kazaks brothers and sisters ❤️

Cool video, so interesting

I met a young white guy from Kazakhstan at a resort in Bangkok while drinking at the swimming pool area and I was a bit reluctant to ask him about what he thought of Borat without offending him and he was like, "I love Borat." He was saying most of the hit quotes like "you will never get this!" and I busted out laughing. Fun times. If you're reading this comment bro we were staying at the Anantara Riverside back in August 2018. Cheers 🍻

I think it is important that everyone should be educated about Kazakhstan as a country and culture , either before or after watching both films.

People in the comments acting so surprised that Kazakhs look Asian forget that Kazakhs are, in fact, Asians. Asia isn't just China/Japan/Korea. It's Central Asia, South Asia, Southeast Asia, and West Asia. Laotians, Indians, Afghanis, and many more peoples are all Asians.

@saltamuslim-ali requesting you to please use a diff highlight on the subs. Loved the rest!

Great to hear/see how many of the people interviewed in the video speak English so well! This honestly still is not the case in quite a number of EU countries.

Actually, the movie is about americans but not kazakhs. The movie shows how americans have very little knowledge about other countries and they believe in nonsense. I personally laughed at so naive american people :))

Love KASAKH people from Belad El sham احب الكازاخ من بلاد الشام ✌🏻🇵🇸🇯🇴🇱🇧🇸🇾❤

I really enjoyed this. I'm American and I want to visit Almaty.

Cool idea for a video!

Did anyone ever acknowledge how beautiful kazakh ladies are? Damn man🥰

Very Nice Kazakhstan people. All the best from India.

Almaty was awesome when I visited. People were so friendly, definitely coming back. Maybe astana this time.

After watching this video, it made want to go visit kazakhstan someday

The guy is right. I’m an American who’s ignorant about Kazakhstan and here I am learning something. Y’all sound a lot more intelligent and well spoken than a lot of my people. 🤣

Wow, that first guy was spot on.

kazahk people seem so friendly and warm will definitly check out the country in the future

Bleat actually caused a huge tourism boom for Kazakhstan. I guess it was the tourism minister but he stated there was a huge surge of visas.
