The colossal gold statue of the Turkmen president for life, Saparmurat Niyaz ov, points to the grandiose mosque which was inaugurated on 22 October 2004 in his hometown of Kipchak. This mosque, with its 90 meter high minarets, wa s built by the French Bouygues Batiment and is Niyazov's pride and joy. Thi s mosque has been a source of contention since Niyazov engraved on the wall s not only quotations from the Koran, but also from his "Ruhnama" book. The mosque is often empty and religious Sunni authorities don't approve these e ngravings, regarding the use of such quotations in a mosque as blasphemous. Kipchak, TURKMENISTAN - July 2005 516892
