I am deeply convinced: if we set down the true aim and go to it by a carefully calculated route, a success imminent. Independent and neutral Turkmenistan confirms it above-said by the practice of its development, which has received qualitatively new acceleration in recent years. The country, as a fantastic giant, strides through barriers and difficulties, carrying the energy and optimism of the people.

But let's put allegories aside: the reality of these efforts deserves looking at from the most intent and scrupulous point of view. The world is put before a choice of further way and intense search of the new optimal model of development, including a recovery from a global economic crisis, and Turkmenistan being involved in this process, has declared itself as an equal player and partner, which is following basic three conditions, demanded by the world community - reliability, openness and safety.

Since the first day as head of this country the most important task has been the formation of the Purpose that is capable to unite and inspire the nation in achieving new horizons of independence. These horizons were dictated exclusively by internal problems of young statehood but by new calls of time which have sharply risen before the developed and developing economy, before mature and young democracies, Turkmenistan should integrate into a new world system to coordinate and continue internal development proceeding from the enormous potential of the country, its advantageous geo-strategic position, political system of permanent neutrality and necessity of spiritual self-actualization of the nation dating thousands of years back with its culture, and leave an appreciable trace in the world civilization.

I have realized well: whatever problems put forward overtime, it would not be possible to solve it without them idea of uniting the nation. Without that, in order to start the belt of energy of the nation, it needs to revive the gene of creation inherent to it. So our door was knocked, as it was called by the journalists, an epoch of new Revival, the name itself served as a key to solve the problems of a new century. All was subject to revival: spirit, traditions, old and new experience, goals and problems, methods and means, in short, all that is expressed by the capacious modern concept "innovation".

Along with that it was required to define accurately the state strategy as the mechanism for realization of the national idea, instrument of diversification of economy and creation of its competitive advantages in a world market of division of labour. "The state - for the person" - proclaims Turkmenistan concluding this extremely briefly under the universal form. As a matter of fact, an appealing modern idea of social development through involvement in this process of the human personality without which any national idea will sag as a badly tensed rope over a mountain precipice.

Even if we search for the main secret of our confident progression, then it is definitely in the sphere of refraction of new realities and secular traditions of the people exactly at that point where they have converged in political and economic calculation of the state.

The belief in creative potential of the nation forces us to build this strategy simultaneously both in key positions, and on flanks, not missing anything - neither big nor small, neither main nor minor, neither long nor momentary demanding decision now and today.

There was an issue to effectively adjust the public management without missing anything from that which should work on the end result that is on the person who consumes the product of his own labour but reproducing this product at a new level of knowledge and quality, living in high grade of life, creating a family, bringing up children, getting access to education and culture, in a word, creating values, above all standing in spiritual hierarchy of the people.

Such statement of the issue has demanded its attaching in the constitution. In the new edition of the Organic Law of Turkmenistan a human being is proclaimed as the highest value of the society and it has predetermined that all the further steps related to the issues of the creation of civil society, providing to each person deeply motivated and interested relation to their rights and duties. Thus, modern elective democracy has found for itself healthy ground in congenial democracy of the Turkmen people, the democracy which has prepared perception of values of modern civilized development.

Certainly, Turkmen democracy is still young, it should get stronger and rise on its feet, but those steps which are undertaken on the maintenance of genuine democracy, origin of the very civil society as a state partner, testify to the verified trajectory of movement in a direction of progress and human development.

Soaking up as a sponge, the most advanced world experience, combining, as it is considered to be, a combination of circumstances and orientation to success, Turkmenistan proves to itself first, then to the others that the true values of the modern society are not in the bowels of the earth but in the people, in their knowledge, professional and human return. From here, the combination of circumstances or strictly speaking, diversification pours out into the system, structured approach to manufacture of a cumulative national product - both raw and export focused, and also its distribution with the account of "the human factor". Thus, the preference is given to the model which is not overtaking but to the postindustrial development, the strategy which has offered new formula of development, expressed in a proportional parity of national and global institutions, the market capital and a product, the role of state and a private sector. In short, building the economic model, Turkmenistan assigns primary importance to the protection of national interest by optimal occurrence of its economy in the world economy.
