Translation of AbdulGamid’s original post in Russian from 21.10.07

Once the most available and popular recreational spot for Ashgabat people is now harder to commute to. Since the police posts were established at all the roads to Kurtly reservoir, it has actually got 25000 manats (1 USD) more expensive. Exactly this price is set (of course, under the table) by the arms of the law to charge each tourist car for the permission to visit Kurtly lake.
