Issued to mark the 5th Asian Indoor and Martial Arts Games, held in Ashgabat in September 2017 — a sporting event that Turkmenistan used to project considerable state prestige, having constructed an entire dedicated Olympic complex in the capital at enormous public expense. The commemorative note was released alongside a broader program of medallions and philatelic material tied to the games.
Thomas De La Rue's involvement here is routine for Turkmenistan's modern issues; the Central Bank has relied on the London printer across most of its commemorative output since independence.
