SWOT for Kazakhstan

106
I wrote this small analysis not only for the people of Kazakhstan, but for the neighboring countries - the Russian Federation in the first place, since we are, of course, largely interdependent. What is happening in the republics of the former USSR is for all of us much more important than what is happening in foreign countries.
We are united not only by the CU and the Eurasian Union, but by the fact that the peoples and lands of our republics have been united under different names for thousands of years.

I propose to readers of the discussion site an analysis of the strengths and weaknesses for Kazakhstan, as well as possible threats and opportunities. We know this analysis under the abbreviation SWOT and are usually used to evaluate business projects or organizations.

So, let's begin.

Strengths or advantages of Kazakhstan

Energy and other mineral resources. Developed infrastructure with
Soviet times. Railway network. Power lines. Explored and developed deposits. Neighborhood with friendly or allied states.

Weaknesses or disadvantages

Remoteness from sea routes. The absence of a large consumer market. Unfavorable climate. The income stratification of the population.

Capabilities

The opportunity to become part of the large consumer market of the Eurasian Union. Specialization and cooperation within this market.

Threatening

Political and international risks. Possible deficiencies: fresh water in the region, energy resources in the world.

I would be very grateful if anyone could supplement and correct me.

    How is it not voluminous or something ...
    Go deep into the details and look forward to SWOT 2.0
    Our markets and our general and local problems are much wider and require a very close relationship and the necessary solutions ... some almost immediate!

      Disadvantages:
      The SWOT analysis shows only general factors. Specific measures to achieve the goals must be developed separately.

        Soviet times. Railway network. Power lines. Explored and developed deposits. Neighborhood with friendly or allied states.

        At the time of gaining independence, Kazakhstan did not produce a single barrel of oil or a single cubic meter of gas. The road network is far from being developed and the railway network has expanded greatly and has been electrified in most sections only in the last 10 years. As for the "friendly" Uzbekistan, the author would not hurt to ask about the news about border conflicts with shooting and corpses.

        I wrote this short analysis not only for residents of Kazakhstan, but also for neighboring countries - the Russian Federation in the first place, since we are, of course, to a large extent interdependent.

        Which member of the Central Committee first called Kruchkov and declared full support for the Emergency Committee?
        Who hired Kryuchkov’s people after the GKChP’s failure? Who did not go to Belovezhskaya Pushcha? Who signed the Declaration of Independence in December? Who in 1994 suggested creating an analogue of the EU on the site of the former USSR.
        You can continue indefinitely - all of Nazarbayev’s actions speak of his foresight as a politician who has relied on unification, primarily within the framework of the former USSR.
        Lukashenko and Putin are not so long-livers in politics.

            Each sees his own way by virtue of his subjective perception. Let your not-so-distant judgments remain on your conscience by virtue of the fact that you did not back up any of your high-profile statements with at least some evidence.
            How many do not try, the glory of Goebels does not shine for you. You can interpret it as you like - it is still impossible to refute the facts.
            Next time write that there was diarrhea and therefore didn’t get there, otherwise they couldn’t refuel and the train with the car was unavailable - it’s just ridiculous to read to me.
            What mythical bases are we talking about? Do you feed the brain with the speculation of the tabloid press, or is there concrete evidence - place, calculations, cost? So there are places-rent-terms for Russian bases, and your speculations have the same air?
            Cunning and resourcefulness in 1994 year to offer the TS to the drunk Yeltsin? Are you raving
            What is included in your task is clear to me for a long time, but as Wang you are no longer a predictor - TS with 2010, and EAEU with 2015. Facts are stubborn things and Goebels' tricks here will not help like in Stalingrad.
            Time passes, and all childish grievances of any kind from an adult are boring to read.

              let's point by point, it is clear that I cannot prove about the landing of the NAS plane, but I did not record his statements of that period on video, although this is a fact and it was said in some interview that I have not yet confirmed, let's point it out, we can succeed " to be rehabilitated, "third, let's not talk about" closeness "sorry, but you can give evidence of my" closeness "
              here to refute the facts still fail

              ...in April 2002, during a working visit to Kazakhstan of the then US Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld and his meeting with the President of Kazakhstan Nursultan Nazarbayev, the intention was expressed to provide the US Air Force with airfields in Almaty, Shymkent and Lugovoi ...

                Back to the points:
                Nazarbayev in Belovezhskaya Pushcha did not wait - although they invited.
                1994 proposed creating an analogue of the EU on the site of the former USSR.
                Offered to unite? Offered.
                Foresight - have the CU and the EAEU become a reality or not?

                With age, you need to cast aside emotions and not reason like young hot heads. Databases, as it turned out, exist only on the pages of the tabloid press - there is not a single memorandum / communique officially in nature - rather weak. But this is the USA after 09 / 11, after consultations with Putin and his full support, they received bases in Central Asia except Kazakhstan. Putin did not object to the opening of CSTO members - Manas and Khanabad, and even planned to join NATO http://newsland.com/news/detail/id/273093/

                    We are all human - who is here without sin? Everyone was wrong, and Putin and Nazarbayev. The main thing men even getting lost is that they still return to the right road. There is no USSR, but there is already the CU and the EAEU, and this is the beginning.
                    The question was not in Kazakhstan and Belarus, but in the drunk Yeltsin, Putin’s inexperience. And now Putin can already separate the cutlets from the flies and has no illusions like in the 2000's. If Russia sees enemies everywhere, then it will go far. This is true for any country - everyone needs partners, allies and just good relations for development. Driving yourself into isolation is unproductive - examples from Albania to the North. Korea.

Like an adult man, but like an offended child. The cook cannot run the state, and not every peasant understands the intricacies of big politics. Know your cricket six. Nazarbayev rose from the peasants to the presidency, and Vasilenko moved to the barn. Maybe it’s enough to envy and rush "nazik" - you do not communicate with the lads, but with decent people.

      In my opinion, now the main thing for Nursultan Abishevich (if you made a mistake with the name, please excuse me) is to find a replacement. I wanted to say that he needed to prepare a successor, put him into work, where he could earn the respect of the people of Kazakhstan. Nazarbayev is not eternal (as Putin is, by the way), and the region is not the calmest, and friends from across the ocean will still stir up water here, besides, Uzbekistan is on the verge of great upheaval - Karimov is very sick, practically retired, resulting in an undercover a struggle that does not bode well for either Uzbekistan or its neighbors. Ukraine is not the end point of the United States, in the post-Soviet space. And Central Asia at the Americans, in reserve. Therefore, a country that is friendly to us needs a strong leader who enjoys well-deserved support from the people.

          One hundred percent!!! Kazakhstan is not Turkmenistan, and even there Turkmenbashi did not last long after death, and Nursultan is still like a second zhuz, and after (God forbid, but we will all be there) the first zhuz will certainly fight for power. Still, the neighbor is not as stable as we would like. Making Yeltsin's move with the nomination of his Kazakh "Putin" is one of the options.

            Do not persuade zhuzes and politics, it is both warm and soft. Power and clans in Kazakhstan are grouped by business-financial, friendly and family ties, and not by zhuzes. Senior, middle and junior zhuzes are just names, not a real relationship and hierarchy of zhuzes.
            Applied to Russia, it will sound like "Putin is still from the Novgorod lands and after his death the Tver principality will definitely fight for power."

              Well, actually something like that happened in times of turmoil. It applies just to Russia. The fact that now it’s not worth dropping zhuzes and politics is, not least, Nazarbayev’s merit.

            The second zhuz is St. Petersburg, and the first Moscow? good
            Officially there are senior, middle and junior zhuzes.
            There was a supposedly unwritten rule in the USSR: the 1 secretary was the senior, the Head of the SovMin was the middle and the Chairman of the Supreme Council was the younger. In reality, everything is much more complicated - the main principle of personal devotion - the rest does not matter.
            Yeltsin put Putin in exchange for guarantees to the Family. Why should Nazarbayev have a different way?

    In my opinion, it is worth adding the possibility of Islamization, both of Kazakhstan itself and of the states bordering it from the south. If this option is not priseketsya, then the chances of becoming part of the large consumer market of the Eurasian Union will be very small. For this, including Kazakhstan, it may be worthwhile to contribute to the expansion of this market (and the common cultural space) through the involvement of Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan and, ideally, Uzbekistan over time ... So far, Kazakhstan has not been particularly active in providing such assistance.

    1. Rich natural resources
    2. The remoteness from the sea routes really worries someone. Nazarbayev somehow could not restrain himself and noticed in his hearts how it would be good for a single state of Turks to spread from Altai to the White Sea. For some reason, I forgot the Sayan Mountains, the eastern Tien Shan, Kunlun, Taklamakan, etc. Maybe he doesn’t know that the Turks live here and there, but maybe he forgot.
    3.Specialization aimed either at "Turan" (agitation for their especially Svidomo), or at the vehicle.
    4. Water in Kazakhstan is full, but it is not distributed evenly and is often used extremely inefficiently. By the way, the climate is not bad at all, it just differs from the Mediterranean. \
    5. No one is threatening Kazakhstan openly from outside. But then they themselves will go to Iraq to help the Americans a bit, then in Alma-Ata the Americans are going to breed any bacillus.

      You’ve got to the very point. Vladimir, these are KEY PROBLEMS not only of Kazakhstan but also of all the CIS countries including Russia ... This way we went thanks to Gorbachev from the time of the USSR, who did not hide that the main goal of perestroika was to destroy the existing system of economic relations and replace integrating it into the global system, or rather the so-called pyramid of the civilized world as peripheral commodity economies. Where our place is determined for us, for which the ruling elite receives its financial rent and becomes a handshake. In ideology and rhetoric, this meant that "we will live in Europe and the USA."
      Everything else is particular that arises from this main thing ... Our countries have a peripheral model of economies, the essence of which is the lack of sovereign economic policy as a way of designing and managing the future.
      of this state of peripheral need to find FINANCIAL SOVERITY.
      As long as our economy is a peripheral economy and we cannot ensure financial sovereignty, we will not be able to fulfill the tasks of development.
      Attempting to protect your market within the framework of the Customs Union is the right, but really insignificant, step towards true sovereignty.
      The next step - the Eurasian Economic Union - also does not solve the problem of full economic sovereignty. Because today, Eurasian integration still follows the rules and principles of world trade - that is, ultimately, it still plays in favor of the global market, where Russia is a peripheral economy.
      But these are steps in the right direction, although they in no way threaten the world's global capital. But the creation of the BRICS and its financial structures, the prerequisites for the transition to OILDUBLE as ONE OF the reserve world currencies are already causing a serious pain among the globalists ... It is no coincidence that the landmark interview of the "overseer" of world capital in Russia, Mr. Chubais, was published
      Anatoly CHUBAIS: in a glass house you have to carefully throw stones
      the essence of which is expressed in one phrase
      Russia has managed to prove that the world is no longer unipolar but it will cost Russia a lot, and it has not yet paid the full price. This can be treated in different ways, but the scale of events is just that.

      Chubais speaks of creating a multipolar world as a fait accompli. There is no turning back, now bargaining is underway and the configuration of this multipolar world is being determined.
      But it threatens Russia with a DEAR PAYMENT.
      And further from the threats, this herald of the world behind the scenes makes it clear under what conditions can Russia avoid a board at a high price. To be honest, I don’t know what this price is for us and how far they can go in their plans to "utilize" Russia.

        Russia refuses to try to create an oil ruble (that is, refuses to fight for financial sovereignty), and in exchange for this, the West is merging Ukraine in one form or another, and Europe is lifting sanctions.
        If we go for this deal, then in the short-term policy we will get some advantages, but in the long-term development perspective we will remain a peripheral economy.
        As the saying goes, the devil often offers seductive conditions, but it is better to disagree with them. Work on the oil ruble must be continued despite all the difficulties and threats. And in this work, the more like-minded people we can include Kazakhstan with the wise and cunning NAN, the easier it will be to go against the NANOCHubais external and internal ... pun smile

    Developed infrastructure with
    times of the USSR. Railway network. Power lines.


    Well, this can be attributed to the pros and cons. The vast majority of roads and power lines were created back in the USSR. Huge repair and modernization is required. Roads are built mainly in the old trunk directions. Drive literally 10 km from the main highway and quiet horror will begin, where even patching was done even under Brezhnev.

    Power lines are overloaded unrealistic. Enterprises, new homes are being built, and networks are not being updated. In our city, even in the center, it is difficult to find 220 volts, in the network, at best, 200-180 volts. In some areas, up to 100 volts drops during peak hours.

    And from the pros. You can add low taxes, compared with the same Russia. And it is necessary to stop the development directions to drive raw materials for the hillock. You need to master high processing and add value.

Everything is cool in the cities, and then the horror. So much money in the country. There are no mountains, only steppes. Build - I do not want. But no.

        With regard to roads, I partially agree and then with reservations. Almost the entire territory of Kazakhstan is ruled by a sharply continental climate.

In Kazakhstan, it does not surprise anyone when in the same area in winter the temperature can drop to -35-40 - a constant blizzard and blizzard, and in the summer stay close enough to + 45 gr. in the shade at which asphalt begins to almost melt. In such conditions, the laying of the roadway is extremely difficult from a technological point of view and expensive financially. And if we add the human factor to this, then this creates very serious problems for motorists. Nevertheless, one cannot fail to admit that new roads are constantly being built in Kazakhstan and old ones are being repaired.

For the state, the priority task should be a strategy for the development of its transport potential within the WE-WC. If you take advantage of the new prospects, you can improve the quality of roads throughout Kazakhstan. hi

              Friends, I want to share information about major road projects that are currently being implemented:
              1) Corridor "Western Europe - Western China" (2800+ km) 2-4 lane roadways of cement-concrete / asphalt-concrete type, mainly category "A"
              2) "Center-South", Astana-Temirtau-Karaganda-Balkhash-Kapchagai-Almaty, it seems like that. At the moment, work is underway on the Astana-Temirtau sections (4 lanes, cement concrete, category "1A", the width of the road in one direction is 11 m, all adjoining roads will be connected only through interchanges, recreation areas and maintenance), as well as Kapchagai-Almaty ( 4 lanes, cement concrete, I don't know the category).
              3) "Center-East", Astana-Pavlodar-Semey-Ust-Kamenogorsk, work has begun, unfortunately I do not know where exactly. + construction of a 12 km bridge across the Irtysh has begun.
              4) "Center-West", as far as I know it is still a project. Astana-Aktau road.

              + 2 new railways have recently been opened. http://tengrinews.kz/kazakhstan_news/nazarbaev-dal-start-rabote-dvuh-novyih-jele
              znyih-dorog-260607 /

              All of this together costs simply fabulous money and I believe that these are very powerful and large-scale projects for a country like KZ. They promise that all the regional centers of KZ will be interconnected by new roads (expanded and with an increased maximum speed, 140km / h) by 2020.

        And at the same time - such a tidbit cannot but cause a desire to control it on the part of the "world government" - which, given the weakness of the Eurasian center of power (disintegration of the USSR into weak separate parts), poses a real threat to the population of Kazakhstan

    It all depends on who comes instead of Nursultan Nazarbayev. If a person comes greedy for power and money (hypocrites and flatterers work well in the European Union and the USA, this can be seen in Georgia, Ukraine, Moldova, etc.), then it will be like in Georgia and Ukraine.

        In general, the Uzbeks have potential, as they said "the last Urus will go to Russia, we will live like in Kuwait," and the Arabs live worse than dogs. Clannish nepotism and corruption have devoured Uzbekistan. intolerance towards non-Uzbeks is the same. half of our Koreans now live in Kazakhstan and are happy with nothing.

    The Caspian region of the United States has been declared a zone of its interests, therefore, it’s definitely not worth anyone to relax, of course the United States is eyeing all countries that are playing a double game, they started from Ukraine ...
    Of course, both Kazakhstan and Azerbaijan and Turkmenistan and even Tajikistan are interesting to the United States in terms of everything, starting stupidly from natural resources and the desire to bring anal democracy to controlling the logistics of China and further to Russia and Europe.

    As for the region of Central Asia (and Kazakhstan), I believe that it will be very beneficial for Russia to help increase their economies.
    Another major market close by cannot be unprofitable.
    This requires large investments in large projects:
    1) Water supply (perhaps it is necessary to lay a water supply system from Siberia).
    2) Dig a Black Sea-Caspian canal
    3) Other.

    But where to get the money from?
    But there is the experience of Americans - to give cheap loans in rubles, and rubles for this business simply print.
    Loans on the condition that they spend them only in Russia for specific purposes (and not for the purchase of foreign currency, the collapse of the ruble and the resale of foreign currency to make a profit).
    With this condition, an increase in the money supply will not cause any inflation, but only increase the circulation of funds and allow financing large and profitable projects.

Another part of the equally influential "elite" is oriented towards the Gulf countries, since in many ways its influence is also dictated by religious motives and these countries - United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Lebanon. So, as you see with Russia, the Kazakh "elite" is connected by very little - as a result, after Nazarbayev's departure, the "elite" will try, willy-nilly, to realize, lobby the interests of those countries for which they e.

    Moreover, it is the modern Kazakhstani "elite" who is basically anti-Russian and sees integration as a threat to the safety of their capital. The common population mostly does not see an enemy or threat in Russia, although of course they understand that due to the decline in the quality of education and the difficulty in obtaining it, ordinary Kazakhs will not be competitive in the professional labor market, especially in professions and positions where knowledge of the Russian language is in demand - hence the indigenous youth "closes in" in itself, goes into radical Islamic movements. where its single community is formed. Therefore, the indigenous Kazakh youth placed in non-competitive conditions by the Kazakh "elite" will be the conductor of the ideas of the Kazakh "elite" acting on the direct orders of the West (the United States or Europe, depending on where it was "fed") and potential cannon fodder. This trend is already visible today , at the level of the growth of domestic nationalism or "national self-awareness" of ordinary Kazakhs from the hinterland and the fear of the "elites" before the Customs Union and the further deepening of integration processes - in fact, these are two sides of the same coin - the growing nationalism of the "lower classes" and the growing fears of the "elites".

      Aydar, you excuse me, but you froze something wrong. The initiators of the TS were the Kazakhstani elite. It was with its submission that this whole epic around economic integration began to unfold. Indeed, what can be blamed for our elite is that Kazakhstan's business was not ready to some extent for the changes in the market that occurred after the launch of the TS. And secondly, the Kazakhs do not even have such fears close. I will not write about urban Kazakhs, everything is clear here - we are for competition, the main thing is for others to withstand it. If you touch the Aul guys, then a certain part of them, having arrived in the city, manages for several years not only to tighten the Russian language, but also to learn in their direct specialty. You, probably, already noticed what now the shaft of those wishing to enter on technical specialties goes. However, even today - at seminars, trainings and various advanced training courses, the vast majority of students are Kazakhs. Unfortunately, in practice it just turns out that a separate part of the Russians, due to their reluctance to learn the state language and integrate into Kazakhstani society, are starting to get more pinched and feel not competitive.

        1. The initiator of the TS was exclusively Nazarbayev, this idea runs counter to the interests of the elite, whose business is not tied to Russia at all, therefore Nazarbayev does not trust the elite in many respects - his trouble is that there are very few people in his circle who can be trusted - hence his the establishment has no rotation, no new people. The elite in many ways sabotages his decisions, including on the TS, - she waits for an hour when Nazarbayev weakens.

        However, I hasten to disappoint my Russian colleagues with the myth of "the Eurasian Nazarbayev" who does not sleep and dreams of integration. For Nazarbayev TS himself, this is the lesser of evils, as an intelligent person he chose a model suitable only for his personal interests. It is no secret in Kazakhstan that Nazarbayev hoped to take a place next to Gorbachev, but the coup and the collapse of the USSR prevented this. Nazarbayev perfectly knows and understands the nomenklatura psychology of the former party workers of the USSR who have now come to power in the republics of the former USSR, therefore for him this is a political advantage - for the political elite of the West he is nobody, but simply a corrupt leader of a banana country, for the political elite of China he is also nobody, therefore the only one his path is precisely pedaling the theme of Eurasian integration, where he will be, if not the first, then the second, in parallel he peddles the theme also according to pan-Turkism, hope that if not in Eurasianism, then at least in pan-Turkism he will knock out the king.

        The sphere of education today, perhaps the most commercialized and corrupt, is the devaluation of education and the sale of diplomas. Academic degrees are bought as well as sold. Hence, there is a kind of "property qualification" who has money, even tomorrow will be a doctor of "any sciences", and in universities knowledge is "acquired" for money. It is natural that it is sometimes difficult and sometimes impossible for people from the aul to pay for their education. English and German have nothing to do with this problem, however, as has been the custom since the Soviet past, all the same, carriers of capital, fundamental knowledge are still transferring this knowledge to students in Russian, specialists and teachers with real, real knowledge and not with purchased diplomas, which could transfer this knowledge in the Kazakh language - very few, or rather, they practically do not exist. Therefore, Kazakh "science" with purchased diplomas mainly gives rise to "geniuses" and "British scientists" in the field of sociological sciences - jurisprudence, sociology, history, journalism.

      With secondary / special education, in general, practically everyone who submits documents is taken.

    Nazarbayev is an ordinary sultan who will never end up in the vastness of Central Asia. Asia is archaic. With these "friends" it should be soft, but concrete. We will have to live with them.

    As for archaism, recently Zhirinovsky suggested that the tsar be returned, and you don’t even have to talk about the yellow-white-black flag, so I think that most likely you will be subjects of tsar Vladimir earlier.

    It's not that I like Kazakhstan or not. Although, I will not hide, I like it! This is somewhat different. You were the first to start writing, the main message of which was that everything in the country was disgusting and lousy. I, the only one, pointed out that your vision clearly cannot claim the role of truth in the last resort. Especially when this point of view is too biased and does not reflect the fullness of the picture. And you, instead of acknowledging the fact of overwhelming cynicism in some way, have taken and eaten up.

    You are either a girl or a young naive student, however, both of them are distinguished by a rather immature attitude towards reality, therefore, once again I personally indicate my position for you:
    1. You were the first to start writing, the main message of which was that everything in the country was disgusting and lousy — I have identified the problem points that exist — the opinion that they are nasty and lousy is your own opinion. I wrote that in Kazakhstan there is a struggle of elites, against the background of a degrading population and those qualities that characterize the social state, if this is not so, bring arguments that aren’t your relatives who are willing to attend business trainings.
    2. I, the only one, pointed out that your vision clearly cannot claim the role of truth in the last resort. - and I do not pretend to this role and did not pretend and do not want to pretend. Whether you agree with my opinion or not, this is your personal business and it is not interesting for me to know, even if you agree with me. I do not argue, but express my opinion and these are two different things, however people like you always try to put an equal sign between them. Learn to distinguish between the subject of a dispute in which there is a subject of proof and just an expression of personal opinion.

      I will not comment on the first part of your emotional opus. With regard to the "content" part I will write a little.
      You did not indicate the "problem points", but simply wrote your negative and therefore extremely subjective attitude to the topic under consideration. At the same time, this was done, purely in isolation from the existing facts - some speculation and horror stories. I just pointed out specific facts - the guys from the aul are increasingly beginning to gravitate towards the exact sciences. The role of social outsiders no longer suits them. The younger generation begins to strive for real knowledge and not for purchased regalia. And as a fact, I wrote about my relative. So, for reference: he studied and graduated from the Kazakh school. He is fluent in several foreign languages. And from the fact that he did not study in a Russian-language school, his knowledge from this did not diminish at all. Even more - he completed his studies with honors in the PRC. And there are dozens of such stories in my family. You hinted that Kazakhs are actually starting to degrade due to the inability to get an education in Russian. At the same time, somehow, either through ignorance or forgotten that the overwhelming majority of the winners and participants of international Olympiads in mathematics and physics are students of Kazakh schools and specialized colleges, for example, KTL. Nifiga itself degradation. laughing
      Your cynicism is manifested though in the fact that you are beginning to ignore the facts in the mean way, operating with absolutely unsubstantiated speculation. For example, one thing only:
      Moreover, it is the modern Kazakhstani "elite" who is basically anti-Russian and sees integration as a threat to the safety of their capital. The common population mostly does not see an enemy or threat in Russia

If you are doing well, well, thank God, let it be even better.

          In short, you have to ask you more specifically.
          Honestly, you manage to throw a fair amount of der.ma, and at the same time bothering to refer to any more or less well-known fact.
          For example, what (to hell) business elite was against integration processes? The one that increased the supply of primary aluminum to Russia? Or maybe one of those who began to dispatch large volumes of oil products to Russian refineries with subsequent sale on the territory of the Russian Federation. Or maybe those who are ramping up supplies of meat products to Russia to the detriment of the domestic market of the Republic of Kazakhstan, etc. etc.? You tell me specifically - so which of the elite was really against it. Names, surnames (attendance and passwords optional)?
          Oh yes, and also, we have an interesting government, which by all means tried to recreate and restore the former economic ties that suffered as a result of the collapse of the USSR. Looks like the State Department whispered in his ear, and even constantly pushed him with one well-known insidious goal?
          In addition, it is interesting and what is the difference:
          "Kazakh" elite "acting on the direct orders of the West (the United States or Europe, depending on where it was" fed ")
          - from fed by the same Russia? Of course, I understand that you probably would very much like the Kazakhstani elite to act purely in the interests of Russia - like a kind of mongrel?
          It’s interesting, and how much has the attitude of considerable Kazakhs towards Russia improved against the background of a sharp deterioration in their material well-being as a result of a rise in the cost of the food basket?

And it’s not even that tomatoes and dill from the garden is much better, although it is important, but even simply because there was an increase in retirement. let it be better that it has its own small percentage than the same statistician who owns a stall or a store.

    due to the decline in the quality of education and difficulties in obtaining it among ordinary Kazakhs
    I agree with the decline in the quality of education, although there is ambiguous. As for the difficulty in obtaining education, I strongly disagree ..
    Now entering a university for free tuition is very easy .. Let's even say, ugly easy ..
    I have a cousin with 52 points received a grant at the Pedagogical Institute request .
    Moreover, the threshold score of 50 points, this is the boundary of elementary school knowledge. For me, a minimum of 60 points is a threshold for studying at a university, and even that is not enough. And the scored 50 points should only give the opportunity to study for money.
    With secondary / special education, in general, practically everyone who submits documents is taken. Moreover, colleges send propaganda brigades to villages in order to lure graduates of past schools, to somehow collect a set of students. In this case, it is extremely difficult to talk about quality .. negative

    I would not be proud of this, this is exactly what speaks in favor of my version. Personally, by the accessibility of education I mean just not the "ease of admission" to the university for a bribe or for paid education, and by education I do not mean a blue piece of paper with the inscription diploma. Education is a complex of qualities, from professional to cultural and ethical. And when I mean “access to education,” I mean equal, transparent access to quality education according to the Soviet model, which has long been absent in Kazakhstan.

        In geopolitics, the sea and the land are always opponents: the sea is now a FRS (aka the State Department - it is a world government, etc.), in fact, it has established complete control over the world and created the current world order.
        The land (Heartland) is Eurasia - (once the Huns - then their grandchildren the Kipchaks - the steppes of the Turks - then Russia and the USSR) are completely collapsed and in fact the fragments either try to split up (the Russian Federation) or prevent them from connecting
        Kazakhstan is clearly not a "sea" but in fact belongs to the central root part of the heartland - and clearly shows dangerous tendencies of integration with its severed parts

                  Well, if you need a detailed answer, then get ready to listen)))
                  Kazakhs as a nation are a composite hodgepodge of a bunch of tribes who came and lived in Kazakhstan at different times. For example, the Argyns are considered to be the descendants of the Huns, the result of the "Great Nations Migration" during the time of one very restless figure known as the "Scourge of God". They came to the territory of Kazakhstan in the 9th century. (Argyn taipasy (tribe, clan Argyn) is not only among the Kazakhs, but also among the Kyrgyz, Crimean Tatars, Bashkirs, Khakass, and even among the Dzungars there was a clan of Argyns). Kypchaks (Russian Polovtsy, Western - Kumans) - a fragment of the Kimak state, which came in the 9-10th centuries and significantly strengthened in the 11-12th centuries, formed the huge state of Desht-i-Kipchak, which was subsequently defeated by the Mongols in the 13th century ( we all remember the grandfather of Genghis Khan wink ) After 15c. Kipchaks became part of the Tatars, Kazakhs, Bashkirs, Karachais, Kumyks, Hungarians and other peoples. Accordingly, the Kypchaks are in no way "grandchildren of the Huns", as indicated by Semurg. Moreover, until the 15th century, when the rebellious sultans Zhanibek and Kerey migrated with all the tribes they controlled from the then Ozbek Khan Abulkhair and proclaimed themselves Kazakhs and formed the Kazakh Khanate, the Argyns and Kypchaks were the main competitors for influence on the Khan. The reason for the migration was the kipchak Koblandy-batyr’s murder of Argyn Akzhol-batyr. As a result, the bulk of the migrants were Argyns and Kereis, Kipchaks separated from the Ozbeks and joined the Kazakhs a little later.
                  Today it’s all the legends of antiquity and cultural heritage, which has very little effect on the practical side of life.

    While the National Academy of Sciences is sitting, you can not be afraid of "orange revolutions" - it gives everybody trouble-free and well, and we live on that.

Education in Kazakhstan is a frantic business that has long been divided in hierarchy from the very top to the dean of the faculty. Turnovers in some sort of high school or college average but have passed certification (often for a divorce), spin on a par with some major shopping center.

              Well, the words are beautiful, but in reality by themselves, I know I had to pass the passport unambiguously, although the certificate hovered

                and if lost suddenly? but in general, probably with a certificate, you can be elected to the deputies there do not require a passport.

            In 90%, this is citizenship of the Russian Federation, I think. Already found in parliament.

            Well, actually, in order to obtain Russian citizenship, a citizen of the Republic of Kazakhstan must provide a notarized renunciation of citizenship of the Republic of Kazakhstan

            Yes, this is not a swing for those who have Russian citizenship. These are just simple reinsurance. And Russian citizenship is unnecessary to corrupt officials, you can’t hide the stolen goods there - taxes are unbearable, and extradition works. This call is for holders of offshore passports, American, Czech, English. Well, you know who we are talking about.

          education itself is free of charge if enrolled in a grant and pay a scholarship, sometimes they give a hostel and partially travel. All other expenses at my own expense. I look at our grant score in the south much higher from 80 and higher. Who in the course of China seems to be offering grants at their universities?

            In addition to the nationwide competition, targeted budget places are allocated for specific universities. Often the passing scores there are noticeably lower than in the country as a whole. Therefore, at present there are many "Texas guys" in the Kostanay Pedagogical Institute. I was a couple of years ago at the alma mater, and a rumor started to circulate that Kazakh was spoken in the corridors. There are a couple of Russian guys in the reading room for 30 people. 5 years before that it was 50/50 ..

            Now there are many different programs that allow you to study for free abroad. The main thing is real knowledge and possession of foreign languages.

              Representatives from northern universities sat in our technological university and campaigned to study with them, who didn’t pass 80 points and were enrolled to you. Thank you enlightened in China.

        I also read this statement about the fact that in the event of "an inflection, a Ukrainian scenario is possible." Personally, my opinion is as follows (in principle, it was unchanged, and this statement only strengthened it even more) - the national issue, including the language one in Kazakhstan is used as a political means, there is no real language problem or there is no national one, these issues are just artificial bloated and provoked by the current regime. In order to confirm this, it is enough to compare the statements of the Leader of the Nation five years ago and the current ones. In addition, it is useful to keep the population in good shape - they say, look, if not me, then you fools will start to cut each other in Ukraine, first by language and then by nationality. Also, behind the scenes, at the level of jokes-jokes, stratification is maintained within the Kazakhs themselves, with the division first into shala-Kazakhs and Nagyz-Kazakhs and then on the basis of tribalism. All this is applied in a complex according to the ancient principle of "divide and conquer" and is used as an indirect means of maintaining the current status quo.

      Yes, 25 years ago there was a stinky river there, and last year I went and watched there. Nazarbayev. The university is handsome, I say to my granddaughter that I would like to study there, but the Chinese have brought her down now. She dreams about studying in China.

    Good day!
    wanted to add my 5 cents smile in SWOT:
    Strengths:
    strong presidential power
    population loyalty to presidential power
    general stability (politics, society, faiths,)
    low level of terrorist threats at the moment (although the camps are crowded with beards and they live there perfectly)
    some kind, but the pace of economic development (I work in a Russian company, it is possible to compare the development trends of the markets of the Russian Federation and the Republic of Kazakhstan).
    the emergence of the middle class in large cities
    -Capabilities:
    it is possible to use authoritarianism for modernization (I hope it is still possible) "raising an Asian tiger, or a leopard, as you like)
    the ability to use the raw materials sector as a locomotive for the economy (oil, gas, uranium, etc.)
    the ability to grow a middle class based on current stability.
    the opportunity to grow a receiver for NAS and to develop a mechanism for a painless transfer of power in exchange for guarantees to the Family.
    - weaknesses
    all power is locked on one person
    high level of corruption, come to power "cut the dough" and feel like a temporary worker.
    the absence of "social elevators" to the elite, the irremovability of the elite.
    domination of "submarine wars" over public policy. those. clan wars on the sidelines
    - threats
    increased risks in case of unexpected departure of ANAS
    risk of third-country intervention in the event of a political crisis
    the rise of extermist Islamism
    growth of social inequality
    increased ethnic discrimination
    PS I suggest the author of the article to take into account all the comments and make SWOT 2.0
