A large multinational family from the Aueliagash village, of Almaty region: we are all relatives to each other
Everyone knows that the Almaty region is one of the most multinational regions of the country. The fertile land of Zhetysu is inhabited by representatives of more than 100 ethnic groups and nationalities. There are many families that personify the reduced model of our multinational state, among them the large Koybagarov family from the village of Aulieagash, Panfilov region, raising 14 children of different nationalities, – the press service of the akim of Almaty region reports.
The family circle of the Koibagarovs is represented by Kazakhs, Russians, Koreans, Uighurs, and Germans. The owner of a large family, Amankhan Baiburaeva, is a housewife. The husband is engaged in animal husbandry. Together they raised 7 of their own and 7 adopted children, although such a division is not welcomed in the Koibagarov family. Now they are raising their grandchildren.
“These are all my own children, I do not divide anyone into mine and strangers. I myself grew up in a large family. And today I try to give all my 14 children a decent upbringing, I teach what I can do myself, ”says the father of the family, who taught his children the intricacies of animal husbandry. Now his older children work in the field of medicine, and, like their father, are engaged in animal husbandry, specializing in the sale of kumis and meat. Everyone is from 21 to 27 years old.
Sharing memories, Sabit Agha notes:
– As a child, when I took part in the sowing work with my father, I saw children from an orphanage. Then my father told me that all these children need care and love. I remembered these words forever. I adopted my first child in 2009. It was a kid of Korean nationality. Taught him, raised him. Now he is independent, working in Almaty. If you teach a child the main basics, then he will continue to grow and develop himself, he will find his own way. Then other children of different nationalities appeared in our family. Kazakhs, Germans, Uighurs, Russians. They all live and work together with my children. I raised everyone equally, in the spirit of our traditions. But what is interesting is that first every child brings you up, and then you bring him up, – says the father of many children.
Neighbors emphasize that all members of the large and friendly Koibagarov family are distinguished by special kindness. They will never pass by people in need, people who are in difficult life situations, even if they are unfamiliar to them. Everyone who comes to their home, be it a child or an adult, feels like in their own walls, feeling the care and warmth of the family hearth.
The head of the Koibagarov family is also known among the villagers for his hobby. He masterfully mastered the art of making various products and handicrafts from iron. He is also fond of creating various sculptures for the garden. The courtyard of his house looks like a mini-museum of applied arts.
“Yes, we are all different, each has its own peculiarities and differences, but this is not important, because we all live under a single shanyrak in our native independent country. Therefore, we are all one and equal. Our differences only unite us even more, make us better. On the eve of a wonderful holiday, I sincerely congratulate my fellow countrymen on the Day of the Unity of the People of Kazakhstan. I wish you good health, peace, kindness and joy. The main thing is to be together, always support and help, because we are all relatives to each other, ”says Sabit Smadiluly.
According to the akimat of the Panfilov region, the Koybagarov family is considered exemplary in the region and enjoys special respect from fellow countrymen. The Koybagarovs make an important contribution to the development of animal husbandry in the region, they are engaged in charity work. They did not stand aside during the pandemic, distributing koumiss for free to their fellow countrymen to strengthen their immunity and restore health.
