Please answer the following question: How safe is Kyrgyzstan for tourists coming from Sri Lanka?
Kyrgyzstan is generally considered a relatively safe destination for tourists, including those from Sri Lanka. According to the Global Peace Index, Kyrgyzstan ranks 75th out of 160 countries, making it safer than Sri Lanka, which ranks 99th. In terms of crime statistics, Kyrgyzstan has a lower murder rate of 1.7 per 100,000 people compared to Sri Lanka's 3.5. Additionally, female murder rates are also lower in Kyrgyzstan (0.5) than in Sri Lanka (2.2).
