Propaganda in Turkmenistan

Niyazov made sure that his book, Ruhnama was seen and read by everyone.

One example is here inwhich the citizens hold marches in which they are very proud of their leader

In this example, the leaders face is imprinted upon beer bottles, reminding citizens that where ever they go, the leader is there for them. This action also promotes the leader.

Today, this propaganda prizes mainly the achievements of the new president, Gurbanguly Berdymuhamedow, or quotes what he's said. "Döwlet adam üçindir!" (on the left side of the photo) is a famous citation of Berdymuhamedow meaning "The state is there for the people".
