It is not very wise to judge by the name only, there are Europeans who give foreign names to their children, because it is exotic, no matter what…, even if he were Russian, many Russians being born in Tajikistan or other Stans, are more Central Asians than Russians, and they play an important role. The persian name Firdavs, is widely used among Turkic speaking people, but it is usually a female name for them rather than male.

Re: the article, I think the teenage boy, he is actually not yet a teenage, if he is 10 or 11, has no other means to show his frustration about what is going on in his land. I wouldn’t be so quick to judge people. Usually, this form of entering into conflict shows helplessness of the person. What else can he do?
The cheap Chinese labour force might cause economic difficulties for Central Asians. Already poor, they do not even have opportunities to gain their bread from Chinese undertakings in Tajikistan.

Nigina, I know what you mean about attitudes.And i do agree with it. But they are not static, they change, and it is much easier to speak about attitudes while being in England ( or in other developed countries), where the world seems so close and easily reachable.

Hi
I was reading all comments and believe me or not was ashamed to be a Tajik. I am living in England and I do miss my home country very much. But I do not miss the peoples attitude.
World has changed a lot and will do so no matter what. Tajiks should change too to be part of it.
It does not matter what we called or which part of Tajikistan we came from we still Tajiks we must stick for each other instead of fighting. Attitude is everything Pick a good one.!!!

Hamed, actually I wouldn’t believe that. But I think it is true that they are not hired for their qualifications. They are hire because they offer a cheaper labor. That’s it.

Anonymous,

I’m not Russian and I don’t want to live in Russia.

Listen my dear Vadim,
don’t try to critisice Chinese of their rong-doings… I am tajik myself and I know nowadays new generation in Tajikistan is being brought up…I fully support chinese bitting the boy! The boy shouldn’t have thrown the stone to the chinese labourers… I guess that’t what they get when the tajiks cross the limits… As for you my dear russian brother, do not try to mix up with chinese and tajik afair-it’s not your business…Better go and see what’s going on in your Russia right now.

hi Vadim
One month ago I saw many of them in the north constructing road of Dushanbe ‎‎(Khujand road) and asked about them, my friend answered “as u know every family in China ‎is allowed just to have one child and the government doesn�t register the second and these ‎are the second children and after that!!! They don�t have any home, any family, any passport ‎and anything!!!! They are contented to the food and a place to sleep. Do u believe it?‎
