 Batken, Kyrgyzstan
Batken is a small town of about 12,000 in southwestern Kyrgyzstan, on the southern fringe of the Fergana Valley.
Batken became the administrative headquarters of the youngest of Kyrgyzstan's seven oblasts, created from the three westernmost raions of the former Osh oblast in 1999, after concerns over radical Islamist activities in neighboring Tajikistan and Uzbekistan led to demands for a more direct and visible governmental presence in this remote and mountainous region.
Batken oblast contains several small enclaves belonging to Uzbekistan and Tajikistan, respectively, created during Stalin's willful redrawing of maps in the 1930s; this causes significant problems for the movement of persons and goods within the oblast.

 IRIN Asia | Asia | Central Asia | CENTRAL ASIA: Focus on conflict prevention in Ferghana Valley | Conflict | Feature
BATKEN, 22 July 2004 (IRIN) - Men, women and children from Too Moyun village in Osh province, southern Kyrgyzstan, sweat in the baking summer heat to complete the walls of a school in time for the new term in the autumn.
They are building the school because the village, along with hundreds of others in the volatile region, suffers from accidents of history, geography and politics - most of its meagre resources now lie in the neighbouring state of Uzbekistan, just across a barbed wire fence, but for the villagers, a world away.
What a disruption, and for what?" the deputy governor of Batken province, Tokto Ilimbezova, told IRIN as she waited in the heat for a border guard to return her passport as she returned from a regional meeting in Osh.
