Marjona Malikova, student of Samarkand State University, participant of the 44th World Chess Olympiad held in Chennai, India, winner of the "Builder of the Future" medal:

    - I received the "Builder of the Future" medal from our Honorable President Shavkat Mirziyoyev. My impressions are huge. This medal means that the future of our country is entrusted to us. It's as if, adding to the medal, the trust of the Motherland and the nation is also attached to our chest. It would not be wrong to say that this recognition was a tool that gave me new strength and courage in the path of my goals, and made me realize that such a great Motherland is behind me. I would like to express my gratitude to my parents, relatives, dear Samarkand State University team who supported me in reaching this level. There is also endless joy in the eyes of my parents. My father is Abdumajid Khurramov, associate professor of Samarkand State University. The reason why I got into chess was my father, who taught me chess. I dedicate this medal to this person.
