Can Kazakhstan move beyond one party rule? Stephen Sackur talks
to the chairman of the Kazakh Senate, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev. The
country's shiny new capital city, Astana, tells you plenty about
the country’s oil wealth and its big ambition to be Central
Asia’s regional powerhouse. But all of this cannot mask a nagging
question - what happens in this country when the long serving
President Nursultan Nazarbayev finally leaves power?
