"Upholding the leadership of the Party, 'stability overrides everything' and 'development as the absolute criterion' are the 3 main lessons of CN's reform. Tokayev is fluent in CN, so it should be easier for him to learn from CN's experience" - military columnist Chen Feng.

Writing for nationalist platform Guancha, Chen believes that the upheaval in Kazakhstan has peaked, and so, it's time for it, as well as other central Asian countries and former Soviet republics, to draw lessons in order to avoid a new wave of challenges.
