Very successful cultural exports in the 1980s, 90s, and early 2000s. Now the kids who grew up in that era are young adults and have some money.
There are many low(ish) crime, polite, picturesque destinations, rich in art, culture, and history, but Kazakhstan never exported anime.
It's no anime, but who doesn't think of Kazakhstan every time they bite an apple?
I doubt most people even know why one might think about Kazakhstan when biting into an apple.
