    Hotels there start as cheap as US$15 to US$20 per night for cheapskate ones. Is considered expensive there already because average income of a teacher is US$20/mth. Govt doctors earning US$50/mth. I got this for US$40/night. Not bad lah. Got swimming pool

    In the end when we left, I bought it at US$5000 from the landlord and gave it to my in-law to collect rent. Good passive revenue

    To be continued...

    My photo-taking skills not so good. Anyway, for those keen to know how central asia looks like, here are some pictures that I took when I was there in Jul 07. I've not included any shots of wife and all her chiobu friends because of security reasons since we're on net. For those who has intentions to go there in future, you can PM me. I'll provide more info of the people and culture there

    I've resized the pic so that they don't take up so much space. Mods, pls delete posts if inappropriate or occupying too much space

    ==========================================

    Firstly, there's no direct flight from Singapore. The most convenient gateway to central asia is Tashkent, the capital of Uzbekistan. Need to catch a flight from KLIA and the only airline flying there is Uzbek Airways



    Hotels there start as cheap as US$15 to US$20 per night for cheapskate ones. Is considered expensive there already because average income of a teacher is US$20/mth. Govt doctors earning US$50/mth. I got this for US$40/night. Not bad lah. Got swimming pool





    Rented this 1-room flat for US$100/mth. In the end when we left, I bought it at US$5000 from the landlord and gave it to my in-law to collect rent. Good passive revenue

    Very hard. The 1st language there is Russian. Very very few can speak english... I can only manage simple Russian. Only can order food, ask for bill, direction, etc. Sian charbos? Haven't reach that level yet la
