This paper aims to study the contents of mission statements of mobile network operators (MNOs) in Kyrgyzstan and set up whether the mission statements of MNOs include eight components recommended by Pierce and David (1987). Mission statement components suggested by Pearce and David are still found to be the most popular and consistent.
