A story about Ferghana.ru on NTV: three people run today's main source of information on Central Asia - two of them are husband and wife. Their office is located in an old factory building in Moscow, they have three computers and pay $340 a month from their own pockets to maintain the site. Daniil Kislov, Ferghana.ru's editor-in-chief, grew up in the Fergana Valley region; he relies on a network of Central Asian correspondents, voluteers and personal friends who seem to be providing most of their reports by phone. Amazing.
