Zhandos introduced Abai Ibragim Kunanbayev and his background to the audience, and discussed the role he played in shaping the history of the Kazakh nation. Apart from a very good education and upbringing, Abai Kunanbayev also spoke Arabic, Persian and Russian on top of his own native Kazakh language. His wonderful instrumental and vocal works are widely known and performed by many contemporary Kazakh artists, including Dimash Kudaibergen.

Zhandos Karinbayev stated that Abai understood the need to bring the East closer to European culture. He was an extremely wise man. A great patriot of his country, Abai loved his compatriots, and taught them a wise and responsible life. That is why the program was named “Love like Abai”.

We are proud to have received a guest from Kazakhstan on our radio station. Zhandos Karimbayev told us very interesting things in beautiful Polish, as well as in Kazakh. After our conversation, there was no doubt that Abai also formed the artistic attitude and character of Dimash. Reading Abai’s thoughts, we find them wise, universal and timeless. This is a guide and a set of instructions for every person,” said Teresa Kakol.
