02:36 One of the things that excited me most
02:57 about
02:57 moving to Central Asia and working.
02:59 Kazakhstan was my first visit to the Rhodes project where
03:03 they had discovered a couple of Kirgans in early stages and were in the
03:08 process of doing the archaeological dig.
03:10 We got to visit the site and see how
03:12 the cultural heritage policy was actually being implemented.
03:16 This is one of the most exciting things for me as
03:19 a as a safeguards and an environmental specialist in the bank
03:23 to see a project
03:24 actually
03:26 stopping construction.
03:27 And doing what's right for the policy
03:30 and for the country.
03:32 And having visited the site and,
03:34 and seeing what both the contractor
03:37 and the committee of roads did.
03:39 Without the bank's prompting,
03:40 actually they found it,
03:42 they said,
03:42 oh,
03:42 we found this and we stopped it.
03:44 It really is best practice.
