kazakhstan's switch from the cyrillic to the latin alphabet is a break with its soviet past and a huge step in its search for a national identity that's why the government is pouring millions into the move. several neighboring central asian countries switched alphabet soon after the fall of the soviet union but in kazakhstan an independent survey shows most are critical of the move it was because they speak a stance which a long time ago as a country is trying to keep up with the west and why. europe the only thing is the move will hit the country's budget hard. i don't see the point of the check much the basically on any advantages which is why do we need this and maybe just so we can save we did it in the future because. at the moves of. the premier it's not hard to maintain use the new alphabet but that was the only we all know he said i'm mind already when we message your friends. but . many adults don't yet know the latin alphabet but back in the village of kind as 8th graders say they've already taught themselves and are using it on social media . has a stance government hopes th
