  Borat, spokesman
Borat's new movie is coming out on Nov. 3.  We can expect some continued good press for Kazahkstan in the coming weeks.  In fact, Borat himself highlights some of the recent reforms, as quoted in this article:

"Since the 2003 Tulyakov reforms, Kazakhstan is as civilized as any other country in the world," he goes on in the video, citing fictional details in the absurdly stilted English that is central to his act. "Women can now travel inside of bus. Homosexuals no longer have to wear blue hats. And age of consent has been raised to 8 years old."

Progress is on the march.
