Students from China won a total of 3 gold and 6 bronze medals on behalf of the Chinese team and finished third in the team's overall score. Among them are Du Xiaoyu and Ma Zihan, who took first and second place.

“This achievement serves as a striking example of the successful work of Chinese educational institutions aimed at encouraging and developing youth talents. The Embassy is confident that the successful participation of Chinese students will inspire their peers in their pursuit of academic excellence, and the very fact of their participation in a broader aspect will serve to strengthen the traditional ties of friendship between Turkmenistan and China, and will promote mutual understanding between the peoples of both countries,” the letter says.
