Thru the Lens: Teeing Off with the foreign minister of the Republic of Kazakhstan

Gregory Burke, principal of Lane Office, NYC's exclusive DIRTT Distributor and a New York's #1 Knoll Dealer hosts Diplomat for golf at Hempstead Golf Club on Long Island. Erlan Idrisov, foreign minister of the Republic of Kazakhstan, joined Burke and Jeff Esposito of Knoll for nine holes of golf at 7am. The foreign minister only had time for nine holes as he had to attend meetings at the United Nations during this week's general assembly. Idrisov birdied both the first and ninth holes before joining Burke and Esposito for a photo opportunity. Burke said, "Kazakhstan has been an ally of the United States since the break up of the Soviet Union. I was happy that the foreign minister was able to break away from his meetings at the U.N. to enjoy some time with us on the golf course." Burke also presented Idrisdov with two dozen golf balls with Burke's photo on them.
