Today was 'khuresh' day--it's considered to be the climax of the national festival. Khuresh Stadium, where the main wrestling competition takes place, was overcrowded. There was little hope that there would be a tense fight for 1st place, as Ayas Mongush has proven to be invincible for the last 10 years.

This evening a shamanic ceremony was performed by the shamen from the Tos Deer (Nine Heavens) Society, with Ai-Churek (Moon Heart) leading. The performance was specially held on the 9th day of new moon, and was devoted to a "moon of yellow leaf", wishing prosperity and well-being to the Tuvan people. The shamen also pleaded for rain, as the dry summer could leave the cattle without food in the winter time.

Forest fires were renewed in the southern Erzin district of Tuva, reported the head alexistrator of Erzin, Aldyn-Kys Kombu (who is the only female district admistrator head in Tuva). The fires are due to the dry thunderstorms which often occur in Russia--lighting occurs, but no rain follows. Many shepherds campsites have already burned, 25 in all, and half of the forest territory of Erzin is on fire.

The lack of English teachers in the villiage schools was discussed in a government meeting. The absence of the English language in those schools curriculums make it practically impossible for the country graduates to get higher education. In order to improve the situation it was decided that starting this year, a zero-group at the Tuvan State University will be set up for those who will study in the English department at the University. After they graduate they will have to return to their native villiages to teach English at schools.
