This time capsule is written in Kyrgyz and it says:

MAYOR H. TULEEV TARAVI'NAN
MADE APRIL 29, 2009

It is placed in the lower right hand corner of the star compass that contains the following distances to other Kyrgyzstan cities from Bishkek, the capital:

TALAS 302 KM; KARAKOL 400 KM; OSH 672 KM; BATKEN 908 KM; JALALABAD 572 KM; NARYN 310 KM

It is also a few hundred feet in front of the statute of Kurmanjan Datka (see photo), a famous heroin in Kyrgyz history.
