He brings stability to this region and I believe that the other candidates will just bring economic chaos. I think they are simply concerned with the power and money that comes with victory.

Nazarbayev is thinking of his legacy and his role in the history of Kazakhstan. I want to give him the chance to live up to that.

I can see the progress that the country has made since it gained independence.

We have great potential, we are rich with oil, gas and other resources and Nazarbayev knows how to harness all this.

I think many people also support the president because he is going to pay attention to social issues- the things that make a difference to people's daily lives.

Many older people are not satisfied with their lives here and now. They are no longer living in the Soviet Union but in a different country: Kazakhstan. They find capitalism difficult - they no longer feel the government takes good care of them.

Our country has only been independent for 14 years. We are teenagers and we have the problems of adolescence, growing pains.

It makes me mad when some critics of the president or the government say there is not enough democracy here, that things are done haphazardly. As a country we are too young to do everything right.

We have to grow up and find our own way of dealing with our problems and I believe this president understands that.

It's too early to make revolutionary changes. Our people feel freedom but just don't know what to do with it.
