New York - Borat, the fictional
Kazakh reporter who caused a diplomatic stir with his movie
adventures in the United States, is back - with a guide book
to "the glorious nation of Kazakhstan" and "minor nation of
US and A".
Borat Sagdiyev, a clueless and offensive journalist created
by British comedian Sacha Baron Cohen, made television and
movie audiences laugh and cringe but angered the government of
Kazakhstan for portraying the former Soviet country as
misogynistic, anti-Semitic and backward.
The character continued in the same vein in a question and
answer interview with Reuters via e-mail as the book was
released in the United States and Canada this week:
Which country to do you prefer - Kazakhstan or the USA?
"I very much preferring Kazakhstan - it nicest place in
the world! Please, you must look on my guidings book and then
come visit. Bring your whole family and stay at Astana Funworld
Resort - it have beautiful beaches, almost totally free of
landmines and the sea is guarantee to have no jellyfish, shark,
or any other marine life."
Which people are smarter?
"Kazakh peoples is definite has more powerful brains.
Government scientist, Dr Yamak have prove that our glorious
leader, Premier Nazarbamshev have IQ of 412 and a brain that
extend into most of his chest - it no surprise that he have
never fail in complete any jigsaw puzzle. Since 93 percent of
Kazakh people is direct relate to him within 3 generations,
rest of population also shares this great intellects."
What advice do you have for people traveling around the
United States?
"My book contains many useful informations for Kazakh
peoples traveling to US and A - for example, best places to
photograph ladies without their knowledge, location of Grand
Canyons if you need place to dispose of a wife and location of
Kazakh Embassy and where to go if you want to shoot a
Redindians."
When can people expect to see you in Kazakhstan again?
"I already in Kazakhstan, living very happilys with my
new wife. This morning, I was awoke by my clock-radio
(electronic LED), after which I remove my wife from her cage
and she make me delicious breakfast of western cereal
'Frosties', which I have with delicious fresh milk from her
chests. I then attach her to her plough and send her into the
fields before returning to my bed until she come back at
luchtimes to feed me again. Life is very nice for us."
Who do you favour for President in the United States?
"I cannot believe that it possible a woman can become
Premier of US and A - in Kazakhstan, we say that to give a
woman power, is like to give a monkey a gun - very dangerous.
We do not give monkeys guns any more in Kazakhstan ever since
the Astana Zoo massacre of 2003 when Torkin the orang-utan
shoot 17 schoolchildrens. I personal would like the basketball
player, Barak Obamas to be Premier."
