Great honour to the national values

The amulets alaja have woven and knitted types. The name of the amulet indicates that the Turkmen women made it from different coloured yarns and threads and used them according to their types. It should be noted that the efforts of creative women have brought this ancient and enduring art to modern times. The Turkmen people have always cherished the national traditions, arts, and cultural values dating back to ancient times. Our people have passed them down from generation to generation. Handicrafts, created by the skilful Turkmen women and known since ancient times, have gained recognition of the world community. Another evidence of the great importance of this subtle art for world culture is the inclusion of the nomination ‘Turkmen art of embroidery’ on the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage List. A number of the Turkmen carpets entered the Guinness World Records. To date, many of those national cultural values are preserved in museums. One of the most popular values, used in almost every household, is alaja.

Young people earn the trust

Education of the inspired, polite, smart, and patriotic younger generations is a priority of the state policy implemented by the President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov.

Their intellectual, creative, and spiritual potential is aimed at the benefit of society and country. The revival of the new epoch of the powerful state is the time when independent, permanently neutral Turkmenistan confidently moves forward on the path of development. This fact is conditioned by the high level of education, scientific research, and wide introduction of innovations in all spheres of life. Young people play a key role in the implementation of the ‘Revival of the New Epoch of the Powerful State: the National Programme on Socio-Economic Development of Turkmenistan for 2022–2052’.

The Turkmen people have always cherished the principle of lovingly remembering a good person.

She represented a high example of patriotism, humanity, philanthropy, loyalty to family, and love for national values. Diligence and determination, kindness and hospitality, willingness to help others, loyalty to family values were distinctive features of her character. Her entire life was linked to the life of the people’.
