“Turkmen authorities continued to violate basic rights, crush all dissent, and further isolate the country from the rest of the world.
President-for-life Saparmurat Niazov did not relent in his total control over politics and society. A significant development in this regard was the government’s unprecedented campaign promoting the Rukhnama (Book of the Soul), authored by Niazov. Study of the Rukhnama became compulsory in all state institutions and schools, and knowledge of it became an entry requirement for university students and a certification requirement for teachers, doctors, and other professionals.”
-Human Rights Watch.
“Dear Mr. President,
Management of International Industrial Concern ENSTO is kindly asking for your permission to translate your book Rukhnama into Finnish and publish it in Finland. Publication of your book in Finland will definitely serve as an impulse for further development of relations between our countries. This event will make it possible to get closely acquainted with the culture of your people, national traditions and political principles of Turkmenistan. We would like to see your state as our reliable partner.
International Industrial Concern ENSTO plays a key role in the construction and technical servicing of power networks.
President of “ENSTO” Concern

Vesqn seitsemän O:n oppi (“Onnistut omaksumalla omatuntosi oppaaksesi…” [En muista miten jatkuu]) on vaihtunut ns. OOOSAHS-oppiin: Omaksumalla omatuntosi oppaaksesi saat aikaan helvetinmoisen sotkun.
Tiedän – Vesa-vitsit ovat jo ehtineet väljähtyä, mutta ei haittaa.
