Kazakhstan is currently the butt of Borat‘s jokes, and I for one can’t wait to see the movie. The poor country is shown as a land of stupidity and backward thinking. Obviously the authorities got slightly mad over this flaming, causing some international uproar.
Yet the country can’t exactly shake off such a reputation, especially when it print a set of bank notes with the word “Bank” being misspelled.
The bank plans to put the misprinted notes – worth 2,000 tenge ($US15) and 5,000-tenge – into circulation in November and then gradually withdraw them to correct the spelling.
I can’t wait to see the Borat clip on the issue. [source]
