Brian Tracy delivers a short travelogue about his recent trip to Kazakhstan (video titled "My trip to Kazakhstan!"). He summarizes geographic facts (size, borders), historical notes, population estimates, and personal impressions of the landscape and people, and mentions speaking to entrepreneurial audiences during a four- to five-day visit.
Hi, it's Brian Tracy and I'm back from Kazakhstan. The land of Borat is what we call it, and it's quite a remarkable country. I didn't even know until I began studying it, but it's the 10th largest country in the world. It's bordered on the west by Byelorussia, on the north by Russia itself, and on the east by China. It's got a huge, huge country, conquered by the mongols in about 1250 B.C. so there's a lot of Mongol influence and it's only got 15 million people. Most remarkable country. The people are very nice and enthusiastic. I spoke to crowds of thousands of people who are engaged in our type of business, building their own business, entrepreneurs. The landscape is beautiful. Right outside the city. 30 minutes you go from flat, so almost desert like country, to snow. Where there's so much snow you can't proceed further on the roads. And again, we spent about four or five days there. I. I had dinner with them, luncheons, and it was really quite an amazing place. Wonderful people, though, and the kind of people that are going to become part of our world society in the future. So that's my trip to Kazakhstan and I'll talk to you later about some of the other countries I visited.
