Today is the day that Danny finds out where he will be permanently located for the next 2 years.
And at 5:30am this morning (6:30pm in Kyrgyzstan), he excitedly FB message his sister to let her know that he will be in Kok Kia (Chat), some remote village that you would not even find on a map! Exactly what he wanted! He may not have any internet so communication may be far and few.
Kyrgyzstan is divided into 7 regions also known as oblasts. Danny will be in the Jalalabab Region which is the western part of the country closer to the Uzbekistan border. Within the Jalalabab Region, there are 7 raions (aka districts). Kok Kia (Chat) is one of the villages in the Aksy District. The Aksy District comprises of 1 town and about 68 villages in 11 rural communities (aiyl okmotus).
Danny will be stationed in one of the most remote villages ....The last census in 2009 show a population of 299 for Chat (aka Kok Kia). Chat is south of "Sary Chelek Biosphere Reserve" National Park .....

In about 2 weeks, Danny will be moving to his permanent location. Danny's school is very small and has a total of 100 students and he will probably be teaching all the students at the school.
