Magazine a ‘Must’ Read for Those in the Know

#One Magazine, launched around two years ago, has already made a name for itself in Kyrgyzstan as a ‘must’ read for those in the know. #One Magazine is widely recognised for its interesting and timely articles as well as for its high-quality production values. Standing out from other local publications in its quality, length (almost 200 pages) and impressive sales volume of around 3,000 copies per issue, #One Magazine brings sophisticated contemporary journalism to Kyrgyzstan.

The magazine is designed for successful men with an interest in intellectual and cultural affairs, and for the equally successful women interested in similar issues. #One Magazine is distributed in key locations throughout Bishkek and is available on Kyrgyzstan Airlines flights.

#One Magazine features stylish graphic design and exceptional images, including photographs taken by the most skilled professionals in Kyrgyzstan’s fashion and advertising worlds. Every issue contains interviews with all types of influential people, articles on the most interesting subjects of the day, discussions of cultural events, portraits of interesting personalities, and in-the-know reviews of films, theatrical productions, books, concerts and other not-to-be-missed happenings in Kyrgyzstan.

Annual #One Magazine Awards honour high achievers

Demonstrating its commitment to playing a key role in Kyrgyzstan’s cultural scene and to promoting local personalities and achievements, the magazine held its first annual #One Magazine Awards this year. The event honours individuals and organisations in many fields which have made their mark in Kyrgyzstan over the past year.

Regular articles in the magazine focus on members of the local business elite, cultural figures, musicians, beautiful women who excel at a particular activity, community leaders and others who are playing important roles in today’s Kyrgyzstan. Each issue has its own theme; the September 2012 issue, for example, focussed on the visual arts while the October 2012 issue focussed on spiritualism. #One Magazine will continue to explore themes of particular significance in Kyrgyz culture.

#One Magazine’s publishers, editors and writers are always ready to promote local talent and to provide a platform for creative people and for intriguing discussions on issues of importance in Kyrgyzstan today. The magazine is committed to maintaining the highest standards of journalism and to continuing to earn the trust of its rising number of readers. #One Magazine, the voice of today’s Kyrgyzstan, will continue to grow as it keeps pace with the country’s rapid development.
