During the past years the large-scale work was done in Turkmenistan to develop tourism and health resort industry – one of the most promising sectors of the national economy. This summer the first world-class health-improving centres have hospitably opened the doors on the Caspian Sea coast where Avaza national tourism zone is being created on the initiative of President of Turkmenistan Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov.

Dear cabinet ministers,

Dear friends,

So, we have completed another six-month stage that requires the analysis and balanced evaluation so that we could move forward along the path of reforms and changes. Summing up today’s sitting of the Cabinet of Ministers I would like to highlight some most significant aspects.

Legendary archaeologist Viktor Sarianidi talks about spring finds of the joint Turkmen-Russian expedition
Archaeologist Victor Sarianidi is a discoverer of the country of Margush which existed in the territory of modern Turkmenistan in the III-II century BC. The expedition under his leadership has been carrying out excavations in the ancient delta of Murgab River for more than 40 years. The expedition is digging in the capital city of this country - Gonur, the city of palaces, temples and royal burials. "There was a day that I decided that we already found everything we could in Gonur-Depe, Sarianidi confessed. However, next spring field season of 2009 proved that Gonur can present many wonderful surprises to the historical science and the entire mankind."

President of Turkmenistan Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov received Dr. Herbert Lutkestratkotter, Chairman of the Board of Management and Rudi Lamprecht, Director of EWC East West Connect GmbH & Co.KG.
