Kyrgyzstan government is in shuffle mode. It seems that with the new government clan biased is still alive and well. New government officials are firing former employees and hiring clan/family members take their positions. Not that I blame them. Jobs are non-existent and government jobs pay well. When you are in survival situations are you going to provide for your family or someone else? The best way to get rid of corruption is to leave the old communist ways behind and create an atmosphere where all people can have an opportunity to make some a living to support your family.
Feliks Kulov, former political prisoner was release the day the protest turned revolution. He running for President hoping to unseat intern President Kurmanbek Bakiyev. The rumors running through Bishkek is that Kulov has a relationship with Jesus. If this is the case I pray that he gets the vote come June. At the moment he is mending ties with former president supporters and waiting for all corruption charges to be dropped.
