Tashkent billboard promotes Daewoo and interethnic harmony

A Daewoo electronics billboard depicting three children, a Ukrainian, an Uzbek and a Korean, and reading "We share the future" ("Biz kelajakning bir bo'lagi") is found on a busy intersection in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. According to Matthew-Daniel Stremba of the U.S. Embassy in the Uzbek capital, the billboard (a portion of which appears above) has been at the intersection of Usmon Nosyr and Bobur streets since before he arrived there in July 1998. The billboard represents three of the many groups that make up Tashkent.
