    It ended up as a #VW dealership until 2021, VW in #Almaty is now at a new location (and looks exactly like any other similar VW dealership worldwide, they must all have same design guidelines)

    I think the old building has since been demolished and may have become a public open space (my Russian and Kazakh are no good so I could only use what I found autotranslated)

    "Unlike some producers abroad, many #Kazakh #beekeepers leave a significant portion of #honey in hives for bees to consume naturally during winter rather than replacing it with sugar syrup.. Honey that remains unusually runny during the colder months may have been diluted or processed.. #Natural honey should flow slowly & evenly from a spoon or wooden spatula, while its surface should remain smooth & free of bubbles" 🍯🐝🇰🇿👍
    👉 Having tasted & bought 🇰🇿honey from #Almaty I've become a fan indeed😋

  4. 🇰🇿 #Alstom has showcased the construction progress of its new electric locomotive service depot in #Arys, #Kazakhstan. Located along the Middle Corridor, a crucial trade route linking #China and #Europe, the facility is part of a broader €50 million regional investment programme by the sustainable mobility firm.

    The Arys hub will maintain electric locomotives built for national operator Kazakhstan Temir Zholy, handling up to 120 locomotive sections monthly. This #infrastructure is expected to boost fleet availability to 97%, improving both domestic and international rail efficiency.

    The project forms part of a 2023 agreement with the #Kazakh government, which includes three other depots in Shu, #Astana and #Almaty. Nationwide, the initiative will create around 700 jobs. Alstom highlights that expanding electric rail infrastructure supports Kazakhstan's economic goals by offering significantly lower operating costs than diesel alternatives.

  7. Good but we've questions:
    1) why borrow in SFR?
    2) MIGA guarantees cross-currency risks too?

  9. It is lovely to be back in #Almaty after 6 years since our last visit during the #Kazakhstan #Astana Expo in 2017. Perfect early #autumn weather, warm #Kazakh people, beautiful streets and delicious food - make for an excellent holiday. And this time around, shared e-mobility seemed prevalent, with e-scooters being most popular.
    Kazakhstan is still the most advanced country in #CentralAsia and yet it still remains so grounded in their rich Kazakh culture!🏆🇰🇿🛖
