I think it is because of futuristic architecture and lack of people.

Mark , I think based on the flag you are holding you are from the PI. Can we be in touch. I want to visit Kazakhstan. Find me on FB Grace Gerales (green umbrellas). I only use for chat messenger feature. Hope to connect with you.

Capitals are always considered to be the faces of the states. KZ has a giant territory and certainly not all places will look like Astana. For ex, I like Almaty even more. And as a person living here for 26 years I do believe that we can shift to green energy. It just needs time and work. We have potential for that at least, and I hope for better.

Согласен.

А ты откуда, Станислав? Я с Павлодара и скажу тебе у нас тут в городе словно живешь одновременно в 1980-ых и в начале 2000-ых настолько все тут хреново.

Willskull why is that for a leadership or government to be seen as good you have to constantly change the person that is a leader? If the Leader is good for the country and the economy why can't people choose to keep him in power for as long as they want? Democracy ain't all that it has its own flaws.

@Sayat Serikov I can't say for sure, but international students seem to be catching on in China since the application for the funds for overseas studies is much more abundant and easier than those similar student programs in Japan. I mean, the info is all on the website or notice board of each university in China, it's not so hard for you to look up and to obtain partial subsidies from these government-fund programs. But I don't think it's entirely free, at least not here, in Hong Kong.

jamal Urban ohh really

What really? Why?

KEN’ES TV you can obviously tell he is lying Because only 2% of Kazakhstan is people can speak English

The autonomous Republic of Crimea voted with a 83% voter turnout on March 16, 2014 to secede from Ukraine and integrate into the Russian Federation. Roughly 96% of voters were in favor of this. Previously in 2008, polling done by the Razumkov Centre found that roughly 68% of Crimeans were in favor of seceding from Ukraine and joining Russia. So it isn't unfounded or unreasonable to think that number could rise from 68% to above 90% in 6 years.

Nahh. Vlad is already there

@Joy Chakravarty lol

KZ has a small population, it's one of the least densely populated areas in the world. Only 18 mln population in the 9nth territory in the world. That's why you don't see many people in the streets and Astana is more like a governmental city for offices. Check Almaty. It's more lively.

Sam Keaton Because of Kazakhstan is the country I like best.

You aren't wrong, sir! This is the capital city. Then there is Almaty. Then there are about 10 cities stuck in 90's USSR collapse. Then there are the 18th century villages which make up most of the country. This country is a lie.

Per capita gdp of Kazakhstan is 8,800 so it’s similar to china

Free Turkestan. China die

Amora Lay well, to answer some of your questions...I don’t know the statistics, numbers and figures,but I’m pretty sure that government’s statistics are pretty false,just made to make everything look nice. I can only say from my own experience, I live here all my life. A lot of people aren’t satisfied with healthcare system, even though it’s free, but lots of medical staff isn’t qualified at all. Sometimes you can’t be sure that they know something about medicine at all. Of course private medical centers do exist,but they are quite expensive. Actually a lot of people are debt, they get loans in banks and later struggle with paying the money back. A lot of people can barely make a living.. even for those with high education it might be very difficult to find a job,since the education we get here it’s not relevant and often don’t meet requirements of modern labor market. If you want to live in a big cities like capital Astana you will have to pay expensive rent for flat. And probably you will be paying the rent forever,because buying your own house is almost impossible for an ordinary person with average salary. Again, you will have to get loan from the bank, and pay it for the rest of your life. In smaller cities it’s quite easier to get a house,because everything is less expensive there of course. I would say that probably a third or a half of population own houses.

Amora Lay im not trying to make it sound all negative, but it’s the fact that lots of people are leaving the country in search of better life somewhere else says everything.

By that logic Romania is rich then. As they have the highest home ownership rates on earth

Assel Khamitova high rent what world city doesn’t have high rent?
