Әділ Ахметовтің 85 жылдығына орай жазған шағын эссем @baqkz сайтында жарық көрді. Мен үшін бұл мақала белгілі ғалым, дипломат және қоғам қайраткері туралы ғана емес, ұстаздық болмысы, диалог мәдениеті және өмірлік ұстанымдары туралы естелік болды. https://t.co/6CNJHPGV5g
And now in Turkish. Many thanks to @bianet_org and @volgakuscuoglu for translating and publishing this story about Turkish chewing gum, childhood memories, and the informal "economy" that emerged around collectible inserts in Kazakhstan during the final Soviet years.
#biamag | Türkiye'nin sakızları, Kazakistan'da çocukların "para birimiydi"
"1990-91 yıllarında, tek bir paket Turbo sakızı yaklaşık üç Sovyet rublesine mal oluyordu. Bir yetişkin için makul bir aylık maaşın yaklaşık 300 ruble olduğu bir dönemde, bu hiç de azımsanacak bir meblağ değildi. Bir çocuk için ithal sakız satın almak hem bir zevk hem de bir yatırımdı."

Long before we spoke about soft power, connectivity or regional integration, Turkish consumer goods were already creating unexpected links between Turkiye and Central Asia. My short essay on Turbo, Tipi Tip and the childhood economy of the late Soviet years in @bianet_eng
When Turkish gum became Kazakh children's currency
In the late 1980s and early 1990s, Turkish products were entering the crumbling Soviet market, including Kazakhstan, with remarkable speed.
Turkish gums offered longer-lasting flavor, better bubbles, and, most importantly, collectible inserts. They became the building blocks of a childhood economy centered around cars, football players, cartoon characters, romantic comic strips.

Kazakhstan is the initiator of the Congress of Leaders of World and Traditional Religions. This forum has become a platform for effective and constructive dialogue between prominent representatives of traditional religions and confessions.
The Head of State believes that the increasing incidents of religious vandalism and irresponsible behaviour of citizens of the respective states should be subjected to unanimous condemnation as actions that are contrary to the universally accepted norms of peaceful coexistence of states and religions.
The UN General Assembly should also speak out on this issue.
