Turkmenistan is among the world’s most repressive countries. Turkmenistan has been a harsh dictatorship ever since the demise of the Soviet Union in 1991. Until his death, former President Niyazov was the country’s leader. He dubbed himself the “Turkmenbashi” (Turkmen’s father) and in 1985, he declared himself supreme leader when he got into power. He built a cult of self-worshipers at the expense of common people, and he stripped most of his citizens’ rights and liberties. As a result, the situation of children’s rights is concerning. In Turkmenistan, more than 50 % of the population is in poverty. Ever since the country’s sovereignty, Turkmens’ living standards have only gotten worst.
Turkmenistan’s industry is mostly based on natural gas extraction and oil exploration. It is also the world’s tenth-largest cotton exporter. Nevertheless, the benefits gained from these enterprises are not utilized to assist the broader public. The industries are monopolized by the highest government authorities. In 2005, the International Crisis Group released a report detailing the impact of the cotton industry on women’s rights. Children’s workers’ rights in cotton fields were discovered in the research to be quite harsh. Each year during harvesting, local schools were closed (September to December). Students, as well as all other children, are subjected to forced labor in the cotton fields for no pay.
State’s leader Durbynabat Rejepov is the father of Shamyrat Rejepov. Hajymurat Rejepov, his younger brother, is his name. They are Turkmen President Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov’s real-life nephews. Shamyrat Rejepov, better known as “Shammy,” is a self-made man with fortune, success, and renown, a youth icon, as well as the face of Turkmenistan’s future. Among the most powerful candidates is set to take the vow as Vice Chairman of Turkmenistan’s State Bank for International Economic Affairs.
Shamyrat has been at the forefront of development and will continue to do so while keeping his countrymen’s strengths in mind.
Shamyrat Rejepov was seen making large donations to help the poorer citizens and to improve child’s academic backgrounds. He is also the Turkmenistan Struggle Fund’s Vice President. Under the leadership of Shamyrat Rejepov, the organization has grown to become one of the most important in the state. From one of the events, it was clear that the Rejepov brothers had given away a large portion of their money with no social practice.
Shamyrat Rejepov is a fervent believer in avoiding doing anything that may embarrass his family, and as a result, he has a strained relationship with even his relatives. They have a reputation for sabotaging the goodwill of the richest and most famous. Shamyrat Rejepov has become one of Turkmenistan’s highly connected individuals over the years. Not just Shamyrat but both Rejepov brothers have been doing some fantastic work to make good names
Apart from being sharpened by strange PEPs before, both boys are taking bold moves forward in the country’s residential and manufacturing development. Even though both brothers have faced numerous accusations and indictments, they continue to take small steps toward an authoritarian regime that is ever-developing. Shamyrat is one of those heroes who do good deeds in shadows and never show off their achievements.
