This award is a recognition of my labor. Being bestowed with such an honor in the year of the 300th anniversary of Magtymguly Pyragy is especially moving.
In addition to my professional work, I also dedicate time to creativity. I write poetry, drawing inspiration from the life and works of the great Turkmen poet Magtymguly Pyragy. I am proud that my work has been recognized with a victory in the President of Turkmenistan’s competition "Türkmeniň Altyn asyry," which is a testament to the high regard for my creative talent. I sincerely thank the President of Turkmenistan, Serdar Berdimuhamedov, and the National Leader of the Turkmen people, Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov, for the prestigious state award I received in the "Year of the Wisdom Treasury of Magtymguly Pyragy."
