Hey, @dforrestwilson, thanks for the comment! I moved back to Kyrgyzstan last year to grow the Bishkek B12 Team. Our country has had some political instability in the past, but it has been stable during the last 8 years. I am grateful that Adam and Nitesh took a chance to grow our startup here. Kyrgyzstan's government also has been focusing on helping small businesses and IT sector specifically.
Do they really need to be mentioned? For most people, i.e. those who aren't getting involved with the country's politics and won't be seen by the government/regime as a threat, it's not going to even remotely be an issue.
It's like saying that I, as a non-American citizen, should be concerned if I ever want to start a blogging startup based in New York.
>For most people, i.e. those who aren't getting involved with the country's politics
The moment 1/3 of your neighborhood in "downtown" area is heavily looted and internet is turned off completely(2005) or unidentified groups of people with AK shooting near your house(2010) is when you are involved despite your desire.
dforrestwilson made a great point about instability risks.
PS speaking from personal experience. I no longer live there
