National Statistics Committee of the Kyrgyz Republic. 2010. p. 15.: "The census shows that the presence of actual villages (aiyls) on the ground does not correspond to the State Classification «System of designations of objects of administrative-territorial and territorial units of the Kyrgyz Republic» (SOATE). The census found that these differences had occurred in the course of local administrative arrangements, which were confirmed by normative documents from the field. According to them, one village does not actually exist on the ground (Jany-Jer of Ak-Turpak aiyl okmotu of Kadamjay District), which is erroneously listed in SOATE. In addition, there were two villages in Bokso and Myrgyljek of Alga aiyl okmotu of Kadamjaya District in 1996. They moved to other villages of Burgondu PMK and Kaytpas of Kyrgyz-Kyshtak aiyl okmotu of the same district, but villages' data are given with old names in SOATE. It should also be noted that the village of Jashtyk (located 8 km from the centre) has existed on the ground since 1991, but still has no code and is not listed in SOATE".
