Therefore we are keen to know how they live. The President says that the doors of Kazakhstan are always open for them. During 25 years about 1 million Kazakhs repatriated. I express big thanks to Oralbek Botbay who provided sponsorship support, Chairman of Kazcontent Eugene Kochetov who proposed this project", Minister of Information and Communications Dauren Abayev commented.
