The president of Kazakhstan has asked scientists to invent an elixir of eternal life. He is 70 years old and feels great, having governed for 20 years with an iron hand a country the size of Western Europe, and nothing can stop him from doing that for the next ten years, according to La Stampa, indicating that the Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi has recently asked how can he manage to remain loved by almost the entire population of his country. 'I saw the results of an independent survey, which states that 92% of the Kazakhs love and respect him!' Berlusconi exclaimed, with envy. But like any powerful leader, Nursultan Nazarbayev cannot control one thing: time irreversible transition, more specifically, life and death. Thus, in a speech at a university in Astana, Nazarbayev urged the scientists of the new research institute in Kazahstan to study the 'rejuvenation of the body' and 'human genome, the production of human tissues and the creation of gene based drugs.' The leader from Astana expressed his desire saying that: 'People my age hope that this will happen as soon as possible'. Some months ago, at a meeting of the governmental Commission for science and research, he had set the task to 'ïnvent a remedy against old age and to develop methods for natural rejuvenation and immortality.'
