An initiative to develop some regulation on protecting, guarding and worshipping sacred sites or mazars in Talas came from Aigine\u2019s constant informants, the custodians and healers in 2005.<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;\">The project objectives are the following: definition and the types of the mazars (sacred sites); goals of the conduct; issues of the protection and preservation; preservation and the use (worshipping) of sacred sites; the order of worshipping at sacred sites etc.<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;\">Aigine has worked with the lawyer Jakyp Abdrahmanov, former Jurisprudence ministry, for a few months to work out a regulation draft based on ideas and suggestions of the culture bearers. Then a draft was brought back to Talas to discuss with a) mazars shayiks and keepers, b) the representatives of the state administration.<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;\">On 7th of July, in Talas town was held the meeting with the representatives of the administration of Talas oblast. The goal of the meeting was to present a draft of legal regulation \u201cProtection, preservation and the regulations of worshipping at sacred sites in Talas oblast\u201d and its discussion. Each section of the conduct was discussed in details by participants of the meeting with the consideration of suggestions and corrections of the participants and at present time the conduct is on the stage of last corrections for further submission and consideration for the Governor of Talas oblast.<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;\">The main difficulty was many administrators do not recognize shayiks and keepers as a social group and have had strong objection to include the appropriative point in a regulation.<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;\">After the approval of Aigine representatives the last version of the conduct, it will be submitted for consideration to Kengesh in the district.<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;\">In the future Aigine representatives are planning to implement the same project not only in Talas oblast but in Issyk-kul and Osh oblasts as well. Certainly with the consideration of suggestions and opinion of the local community members and local administration as well. Aigine also hope that above mentioned activities on \u00abProtection, preservation and the order of worshipping at sacred sites in Talas oblast\u201d will lead to further acceptance and support of the conduct on the state level.<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;\">The meeting with the regional state administration was organized by a specialist of a state administration Muratkan Aidarov.<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;\">Below there is a project reworked and supported by both groups: mazars shayiks and the oofficials of state administration in Talas. Project still has not been presented for a certain official organ in Talas or Bishkek to get legal recognition because of the political instability in the country. Currently Aigine does work with a few deputies of Parliament, but it will take more time to get a concrete feedback. Unfortunately, parliamentarians are fully busy with political arrangements.<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<div style=\"font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', Times, serif; line-height: 20px; text-align: justify;\"><em>Prepared by Dr. Gulnara Aitpaeva<\/em><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Meeting with the state administration of Talas province on Legislative Protection of Talas Sacred Sites &nbsp; Date:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; July 7, 2006 Place:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Talas town, Talas oblast, Kyrgyzstan Language: Kyrgyz &nbsp; Overview: At present time the representatives of Aigine are working on implementation of the project that will help to obtain the legal power of the conduct &hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[199],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/aigine.kg\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/151"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/aigine.kg\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/aigine.kg\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/aigine.kg\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/aigine.kg\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=151"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/aigine.kg\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/151\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4321,"href":"http:\/\/aigine.kg\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/151\/revisions\/4321"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/aigine.kg\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=151"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/aigine.kg\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=151"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/aigine.kg\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=151"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
