On October 21, 2025, the Chairman of the Halk Maslahaty of Turkmenistan and National Leader of the Turkmen people, Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov, visited the city of Arkadag to review preparations for the upcoming nationwide tree planting event.

He emphasized that this annual campaign has become a meaningful tradition that contributes to improving the country’s ecological environment. Special attention was given to selecting tree species well-suited to local soil and climate conditions — particularly those that remain green year-round and are resilient to both heat and cold.

Chairman of the State Committee for the Construction of Arkadag City, Dovletgeldi Orazov, and Mayor of Arkadag, Gulshat Mammedova, reported on the current state of preparations. They proposed the mass planting of Turkmen juniper trees cultivated by local horticulturists.

Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov supported the proposal and gave guidance on ensuring proper agronomic care after planting. The Turkmen juniper is currently being grown extensively in Ahal Province.

In celebration of the National Healthcare and Pharmaceutical Industry Workers' Day, a state-of-the-art Maternal and Child Healthcare Center was officially inaugurated in the city of Balkanabat. The landmark event gathered regional and municipal officials, members of the Halk Maslahaty and Parliament, healthcare professionals, and community leaders. The opening ceremony featured festive cultural performances, musical numbers, and traditional Kushtdepdi dances.

The newly constructed medical complex consists of four- and five-story buildings designed to accommodate up to 305 patients. The center houses comprehensive maternity and postnatal wards, a gynecology division, pediatric units, and diagnostic consultation departments. The facility is equipped with advanced medical technology, including MRI, CT scanners, digital mammography, and fluorography units.

Notably, the center features the region's first 10-bed neonatal intensive care unit, fully outfitted with "Medicor" incubators from Hungary and high-precision German monitoring systems. These technologies allow medical staff to continuously monitor vital stats, body temperature, oxygen saturation, and respiratory functions of newborns.

During the ceremony, outstanding builders from the "Shadiyan Gurlushyk" enterprise were honored with gifts on behalf of the President of Turkmenistan, who also donated a new fleet of vehicles to support the medical center's operations.
