Addressing the opening ceremony, Beketzhan Zhumakhanov, Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary of the Republic of Kazakhstan to Vietnam, said that, twenty years ago, at the initiative of the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan - Nursultan Nazarbayev, Astana city became the capital of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

Over the years, Astana has been a major symbol of independence and a factor in Kazakhstan's successful development. Astana has now become a dynamic, modern and competitive capital city in Asia and Europe, the ambassador added.
