KYRGYZ LAND IS THE HOMELAND OF AKYNS AND SINGERS, THE HOMELAND OF POETS AND WRITERS
Chyngyz Aitmatov, Mar Baidzhiev, Aaly Tokombaev and other titans of the word were born and created their brilliant literary works on the Kyrgyz land.
The people who are destined to be talented since their birth will never lose their talent. And I am convinced that the duty of every generation of Kyrgyz is to look for, find and show the world such talents.
