I think nothing is going to be changed, we had the same events in 2005, people want changes, and they are ready to support any candidate who will promise some improvements to them. In couple of years people understand they were deceived and new leader shows up, and everything goes the same.
I still have hope only for two candidates current acting president Roza Atanbaeva and our ex- prime minister Felix Kulov, at least they are educated people, not wish to separate the country, sincerely want to change something. I hope one of them will become a president.

When Bakiev came to power, he promised 2 things
1. put an end to family rule
2. make State Chahhel 1 independent
Prohibiting rallies and meeting he explained that it will scare investors. We said ok !!! Then 2007 parliamentary elections and 2009 presidential elections were not fair and transparent. AtaMeken party was obviously kicked off from parliament seats. We said ok, for the last time they were impeding president Bakiev with his pursues.
Then suddenly Bakiev changed constitution, according to old version if president is dismissed Speaker of parliament replaces him. According to his new version Presidential council (which was created recently and consisted of 7 officials and one member was his son M. Bakiev) could choose who could replace president. It was the biggest mistake and undermined constitution as main law of country. Above all he didn't implement 2 things promised in March 2005.
What about America ? With 2 wars in Afgh and Iraq US didn't want 3rd war with Kyrgyzstan :))) US tries to build democracy in Iraq and Afghanistan, but at the same time, didn't say anything about Kyrgyzstan which was falling behind democracy. You will say why ? In order to save US air base in Kyrgyzstan , America closed eyes to authoritarian regime "At the expense of US air base in Kyrgyzstan, America sacrificed Democracy, Freedom in Kyrgyzstan" We don't blame America, maybe Uncle Sam wanted to establish democracy in Afghanistan and then get to Kyrgyzstan since situation us much more better then in Afghanistan or Iraq.

You will ask who is to blame ? of course USA :))))) These cool and hot guys learned from American blockbusters how to assault and attack building and ram walls with trucks :)))
I was in the square sometimes it seemed to me that I was watching cool American movie :)))
The reasons of this riots go back to 2007.
When Bakiev became president he promised to improve living standards and started with economy. How you can attract investments, if there are 1000 meeting in the country and Bakiev prohibited rallies and meetings at the same time he collected more power and put his people to high ranking positions in order to do things quickly.
Opposition leaders called usurpation of power and family rule of the country.
Recently prices for electricity and heating and hot water were increased twice.
Opposition took advantage of this situation and promised to people that if they come to power they will decrease prices. its a long story and there are many aspects of situation.
