Kazakh President rebuked work of Astana architects

"We must consider the level of capital's development through the prism of global competition, study the system of international criteria, analyse the strong and week points of our city. Only then we will know where we should invest our efforts in order to increase tourist flow to our city", the President said.

"In this regard the architect group of Astana must be strong, creative, and looking out forward. However they seem to have had hard time generating any progressive ideas", the Head of the State said.
