I don´t believe that half of the participants are in Turkmenistan.
If not licensed they are not allowed to transmit anywhere.
So all stations from region 1 transmitting below 1810kHz should be
disqualified.

  There are, of course, minor exceptions. In Turkmenistan, for example, 
no licenses are issued at all ...

And the real situation is as follows - almost all participants in 
contests from Europe and Asia cannot use frequencies below 1810.

We see that half of the participants are in unequal conditions.
It is a fact.
