Oh, yes... However, there should be no parallels with North Korea. Turkmenistan is not that closed, I know some people from there and how they live. They use many features of modern life such as satellite TV, cars, have parties at restaurants, some private property is allowed etc., so it's just very restricted society from the political point of view, while it's not that limited in the real life.
