Darkhan Satybaldi
Darkhan Satybaldi is the akim (mayor) of Almaty, Kazakhstan's largest city. Recently, he faced significant challenges, including a tragic incident where two individuals drowned in Lake Sayran, prompting his administration to implement strict safety measures, such as installing fences and prohibiting swimming. Additionally, Satybaldi's office has been dealing with a reported infestation of bedbugs, leading to a public outcry and nearly two thousand complaints from residents. In response, his administration proposed building birdhouses to attract birds that would help control the insect population.
