		<description>I just found this article, and it is a bit dated... I was wondering how Kazakhstan is doing right now in regards of an internet? Who provides the ISP and how many people use the internet these days in Kazakhstan?</description>

		<description>True, Uzbekistan has more, so Kazakhstan does not have the biggest amount of users. What other statistics can you use, I'd be happy to get an alternative source of info.</description>

		<description>CIA sometimes has wrong information. For example according to CIA Azerbaijan and Uzbekistan have more internet users than in Kazakhstan, I personally don't think that is accurate.</description>

		<description>[...] I wrote on Neweurasia that after the controversial media law was signed, the Kazakh Minister of Information promised to come up with the new policy of regulation of the Internet media, due to national security concerns. This promise comes after the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) meeting, where it was agreed to cooperate in international information security, and I discuss it in my entry on development of the Internet in Kazakhstan. Vadim of Central Asian Gateway launches a forum topic on whether Internet can promote regional integration (cooperation) in Central Asia with links to reading on Internet in Central Asian countries.

		<description>Yes, it seems that the site is good only for providing the information and the contact details. You cannot fill in the tax declaration or apply for any documents online - maybe, not just yet.</description>

		<description>Another post-Soviet state is already way ahead of all others in terms of e-governance. The Estonian government already has decreed that each and every state employee has to have his Email address and regular access to a computer with internet access. You can write to your local police officer, the tax official, your MP, and even the Prime Minister. I remember a tech-savvy Estonian MP filling in his tax declaration online during a presentation - all under the eyes of very jealous UK academics.

WRT Kazakhstan - Another interesting field where the internet is being used is transparency in accounting for national resource windfalls. The National Bank publishes all revenue accrued from oil sales online. Again, few people know about it - but maybe that's also intentional, who knows... I'll probably have to wait a long time before I can get my OVIR certificate online...

		<description>I might point out that the website is pretty good, but living here in Kazakhstan, I hadn't heard anything about it! Marketing would be nice.</description>
