Welcome, New Year, dear land!

“The Fount of Wisdom of Magtymguly Pyragy” was the name of the year 2024, which has now come to an end. Together with our esteemed President, Arkadagly Hero-Serdar, we welcomed 2025, proclaimed as the “Year of International Peace and Trust.” Over the past year, significant reforms were carried out in the new history of our independent and permanently neutral state. By the initiative of our Heroic Arkadag, the country celebrated the construction and grand opening of its first-ever “Smart City – Arkadag City.”

• Across our independent country, modern residential buildings, schools, kindergartens, healthcare facilities, and sports complexes have been built.

• In the agricultural sector, significant reforms are also underway. Our valiant farmers have harvested abundant crops of wheat, cotton, and other agricultural products, filling the nation’s reserves.

• Science and education are the unshakable foundations for the prosperous future of our happy generations. Thus, we are conducting extensive efforts to modernize this system, foster physically healthy and talented youth, encourage their education and sports activities, and further elevate our country’s international sporting prestige.

We believe that 2025, the “Year of International Peace and Trust,” which we have welcomed with good wishes and high aspirations, will become a year of prosperity, friendship, peace, and well-being. On the occasion of the New Year, the National Leader of Turkmenistan, our Hero Arkadag, and Arkadagly Hero-Serdar sent New Year’s gifts to children residing in the State Palace, demonstrating great care for our wards, as the faces of all the children were full of warmth and smiles.

In the new year, we will work diligently to transform our beloved Homeland into a land of happiness and prosperity. At this moment, I wish you all new successes. May your families be filled with unity, abundance, and prosperity, and may your days of happiness continue endlessly! The Turkmen people, confidently leading their country to a bright future, continue to glorify the Homeland through great deeds, wise initiatives, and state policies. May our Hero Arkadag and Arkadagly Hero-Serdar enjoy good health and long lives! Happy New Year!
