Lady’s Finger

As reported by many mass-media, recently a 21-year-old man from Pavlodar was arrested for 5 days for giving a middle finger to the cortege of the Chairman of the Senate of the RoK Parliament - Kairat MAMI. It appeared that he is not the only citizen of Kazakhstan, who showed this gesture to VIP persons. My colleague – the editor of the newspaper “West Kazakhstan Today” (an English enclosure to Ak Zhaik newspaper) Zeena Urynbassarova remembered a fact when she, in similar way, tainted her clean biography in 2005.

Atyrau through the eyes of foreigners

Recently a friend of mine, browsing the endless space of Internet, came across a website where expats, who work and live in Atyrau, share their impressions about the life here. One of the authors of those postings (probably, a young man) tried to understand the reasons of (literally) "offenses and hatred in this young country" of local population towards people of his kind. Let us also try to understand the issue. January 5 2013, 17:54 20 727 просмотрs
