So what's with the black suit?! Courting bad luck??
Turkmenistan's President Gurbanguli Berdimuhammedov, who
has ruled with an iron fist since coming to power in 2006 after
the death of former dictator Saparmurad Niyazov "Türkmenbaşı",
has implemented an interesting prohibition in his nation.
Previously, Berdimuhammedov had ordered that only white
cars could use the streets of the capital Ashkabad (!). This
prohibition against non-white cars has now been extended
nationwide.
Security forces notified to get the black one in the
back.
Car owners around the country have until 25 May to get their
cars painted white. The Turkmen leader believes that black
and colored cars bring bad luck (!). Confiscation of non-white
cars has already begun and those owners still trying to get
their cars painted are stuck on long lines at paint shops. The
cost of having a car painted in Turkmenistan is approximately
$5,000. (!!)
