Since the independence of Kyrgyzstan in 1991 and the subsequent dissolution of the collective/state farm system, the drinking water supply system in rural communities has been deteriorating much faster than in urban areas. This paper demonstrates the actual problems of the drinking water supply system in Kara-Suu, a small village in the Naryn Oblast. Much of the water supply infrastructure is out of operation and many villagers are forced to set up private solutions. Due to the poverty of the villagers, the local administration is unable to maintain the infrastructure and to provide a reliable water supply. This in turn causes their unwillingness to pay the water fee. Nevertheless, an increased responsibility of all stakeholders to manage the local water supply system is crucial. It is necessary to raise the awareness of all stakeholders, to animate them for more private dedication, and to reduce mistrust and corruption.
