The world uranium production in 2010 improved by 6%, according to the World Nuclear Association, from 50,772 tons in 2009 to 53,663 in 2010. But it is declining in Canada and Australia, while in Kazakhstan it has improved to 17,803 tonnes in 2010 compared to 14,020 in 2009, and points to 30 thousand tonnes for 2018. Despite the Fukushima disaster, the demand for uranium remains high, particularly in Russia, China and Japan to the point that the Nomura International institution predicted that by 2015, the manufacture will be unsatisfactory relative to demand. In the world are building 53 new nuclear power plants and a extra 500 are planned for 2030. Kazakhstan has 19% of the world's recognized reserves and is the world's largest producer; it supplies Japan, India, China, USA, South Korea, Canada, France and Russia.
But the country lacks technology and technical expert and is in requiring of foreign technology to develop production. The state KazAtomProm, third biggest world producer of uranium with 8,116 tonnes in 2010, works with foreign companies. Astana, however, now needs to develop new power plants and also manufacture energy and sell it in neighboring countries such as China and India, which have the essential technology and are starved of energy. Kazakhstan is perhaps the most stable country in Central Asia. On 3 April, President Nursultan Nazarbayev, who guides the country since 1989 during the Soviet era, was re-elected for another five years with 95.6% of the vote. Foreign investor have spend more than 120 billion since its independence in 1991, and have welcomed his re-election, despite the fact that the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) has statement numerous irregularities in the vote.
The rest of the country, although it need a political pluralism, has developed at an average of 8% over the past 10 years in 2010 the gross domestic invention per capita was more than 9 thousand dollars, 12 times more than in 1994. Although there remain big pockets of poverty, the average monthly salary of 527 dollars is more than 6 times upper than in nearby Tajikistan and unemployment is just 5.5% while in neighboring countries several workers have migrated abroad, to Russia and Kazakhstan itself. It’s true that rise was 7.8% in 2010 and is predictable to remain between 6 and 8% over the next five years, but in Kyrgyzstan in 2010, inflation exceeded 19%. Astana is being court by neighboring giants. Russia has difficulty in take out uranium from its rich deposits, because many are in remote and inaccessible region. So it buys it from Australia and Kazakhstan and it has agreement to carry out nuclear power stations and offer enriched uranium.
