Canberra neglected!

16 October 2006 | johnboy

Reuters Michael Steen has a story on Kazakhstan’s efforts to build a new capital, Astana.

And in this story about a new capital city shoe-horned onto a desolate and wind-swept stretch of a trickle of a river do they compare it to Canberra?

No, they don’t! Bloody BRASILIA!

We need to do something to re-assert our dominance of this field immediately!

“or maybe sascha baron needs to do a character from canberraâ€¦. make them exceedingly boring.. that would do wonders for the amount of interest canberra would recieve.”

Their first name would have to be Colin, wouldn’t it?

My wife was born in Kazakstan and loves Canberra.
Fits her ideal of a socialist paradise while I prefer nearby bogun city.

Well maybe we should invite Borat to Canberra so he can inform his fellow countrymen and women what a fine city we have here?
