The head of state made this announcement while speaking at the groundbreaking ceremony for a new modern village in the Yoloten etrap of the Mary region.
The new village project is impressive in its scale: the development area is over 800 hectares, and the housing stock includes 4,500 comfortable homes designed to accommodate over 22,500 people. The village will include administrative buildings, secondary schools and kindergartens, health centers, a community center and a mosque, as well as modern utilities and communications.

"The President noted that the development of the Mary velayat is not limited to housing construction. The region is demonstrating strong industrial growth, and in the coming days, another historically significant project will be launched—the fourth phase of development of the Galkynysh gas field," Orient reports.
