5 Years in Kazakhstan: My Secret Observations. 

Of course, Incest should be frowned upon. I love everything about the tradition though.

Hello, yes you’re right. Although I haven’t been on the lookout for specific churches, all I know is that Christians exist and yes, I have met Christian Kazakhs. It’s a tolerant country I must say.

Sorry this Gemsquiz is also my comment, I didn't know I was on a different account

Yes, my English teacher is catholic Christian. Even though majority of us are Muslim many of people here are against hijabs(they even call the people who are covered slaves of Arabs 💀). They say that hijabs are traditional Arab clothing and we as Kazakhs have our own traditional clothing. And unlike in other Muslim countries Kazakh women were not forced to cover their hair and face and they were “allowed” to speak even if strangers were around. Women covered their hair only when they get married but covering their face was never a thing. But we follow many rules of islam. For example worshipping five times in a day, fasting during ramadan and not eating pork etc (not everyone ofc) I identify myself as the Muslim but don’t worship five times a day

@@marzhannnnnnnnnnnn Thanks for the comment, Marzhan. I can attest to this.

My view as a foreigner might differ though. I go to private hospitals for my checkups and consultation fee is usually between $10 - $20. In terms of healthcare, it's good enough, I struggled a bit with the language when I got here, most doctors don't speak English. It's easier now that I can communicate. Nothing huge to really quantify the healthcare system but my few occasions have been fine.

@@AbrahamSalako2019 thank you, great to know if we travel there

What’s the main language?

@@cliffchadwicker Kazak but because Kazakhstan was a USSR country, people mainly speak Russian.
