Is Kazakhstan the New EFL Paradise?

An article claims that the former Soviet republic of Kazakhstan still offers lots of opportunities for EFL teachers. Excerpt:
Despite feeling the impact of the worldwide recession, the economy is still growing and with economic growth and international trade comes a demand for English.

Parents who cannot speak English often insist that their children learn it. Catering to meet this demand, there are several international schools located in Kazakhstan's main cities of Astana, Almaty and Atyrau. The most recent, and the first British public school in Central Asia, is Haileybury Almaty, an offshoot of the British independent school Haileybury.
