Cave fist law

        Two drivers quarreled in the center of the city. Most likely, one of them cut off the second one. The drivers get out of the cars and begin to figure out the relationship on the fists. One beats the second and leaves contented. The second remains to lie on the asphalt.

         Every time I go to Alma-Ata, I find more and more distinctions between the Alma-Ata and the Astana residents.

         A lot of civil servants and employees of state companies live in Astana. This leaves an imprint on the general atmosphere in public places. Even on vacation (in restaurants, shopping centers, in the …

Kazakh Internet zombies in European restaurants

           I noticed an interesting detail: in Italy, sitting at a table of a restaurant or a cafe, we, as usual, took our phones and started communicating with virtual friends, but not with each other.

Modesty of athletes.

     I sincerely rejoice and I am proud of the Kazakhstani athletes who have reached the world level.

     But one aspect upsets.
