ASTANA, Kazakhstan (Reuters) -- Kazakhstan's Foreign Ministry threatened legal action Monday against a British comedian who wins laughs by portraying the central Asian state as a country populated by drunks who enjoy cow-punching as a sport.

Sacha Baron Cohen, who portrays a spoof Kazakh television presenter Borat in his "Da Ali G Show," has won fame ridiculing Kazakhstan, the world's ninth largest country yet still little known to many in the West, on British and U.S. channels.

Cohen appears to have drawn official Kazakh ire after he hosted the annual MTV Europe Music Awards show in Lisbon earlier this month as Borat, who arrived in an Air Kazakh propeller plane controlled by a one-eyed pilot clutching a vodka bottle.

"We do not rule out that Mr. Cohen is serving someone's political order designed to present Kazakhstan and its people in a derogatory way," Kazakh Foreign Ministry spokesman Yerzhan Ashykbayev told a news briefing.

"We reserve the right to any legal action to prevent new pranks of the kind." He declined to elaborate.

Borat at the MTV Europe Awards 2005
Introduction to the show

"Welcome to the 2005 Eurovision Song Contest."



Following Madonna's performance

"That singer before me. Who was it? It was very courageous of MTV to start the show with a genuine transvestite, he was very convincing. It was only his hands and his testi satchels that gave it away."



Introducing Coldplay

"Next is one of the most famous bands in the world. We all love very much. Please enjoy... Green Day!"



Introducing The Pussy Cat Dolls

"Please prepare yourself for masturbation because next are international singing prostitutes, Pussy Cat Dolls."



After introducing Akon

(Borat whispers to little Kazkhstani child), "quick Akon's on stage, dressing room 8. See what you can take."



Introduction to Gorillaz

"There is one singer called Shakira... sorry I laugh because in Kazakhstan this word means vagina. For example, 'Can I touch your shakira?' or 'I have seen your wife's shakira, it hangs like the mouth of a tired dog."



Introducing Green Day

(Borat is dressed in a very revealing wrestling lycra costume), "Hello it is me, Freddy Mercury. I joking, he die of AIDS. It me Borat, I not a la la loo lee. The only sex disease I ever have is gonoreah. 15 times! The ladies like Borat! Now please welcome Coldplay."



Chatting to co-presenter Brittany Murphy

"Very nice. Whah whah we whah! I imagine you with no clothes. Borat is getting fat."



At the press conference

"My 13-year-old son is travelling here by foot, with his two wives and his three childrens." "If he survives the journey I have promised him that he can make penetration with Colombian prostitute Shakira."

"I look forward to meeting Jennifer Rush, Level 42 and Terence Trent D'Arbay," "Oh and the Thompson Twins."



In interview with the BBC

"My retard brother Vilo is not able to come as he is retarded and his cage would not fit on the plane."

"Unfortunately my wife was unable to leave Kazakhstan as she is a woman... this is a good news, she is a boring. High Five!!!"

"We celebrate with a men's only party in my hotel room where we will play ping pong, wrestle totally nude and shoot dogs from the balcony."


To finish the show

"To the world, I love you! Apart from Uzbekistan. Assholes."

Ik vind Sacha Baron Cohen echt geweldig, vooral z´n typetje Borat! Die is eigenlijk nog beter dan Ali G. Maar ergens kan ik de regering van Kazachstan ook wel begrijpen. Als in een ander land voor de lol een Nederlander wordt neergezet als een lui kaasetend figuur op klompen die de hele dag naar de hoeren gaat en aan het blowen is dan zou ik het ook niet zo heel erg grappig meer vinden denk ik.
