From the letter of the Hero of the Soviet Union, the legendary Bauyrzhan Momyshuly, to the secretary of the Communist Party of KazSSR Mukhamedzhan Abdykhalykov:

«Today, due to the fact that more than a quarter or a third of the children of urban Kazakhs are educated in Russian schools is becoming more and more youth, who don't know their native language. Their parents were fond of giving their children to Russian schools, every second of them does not recognize Kazakh schools. Therefore, it is necessary for Kazakh children in the administrative order to transfer to Kazakh schools that they receive education in their native language. Otherwise, after ten years we will reach to such a shame that these guys will communicate with their relatives through interpreters.

Those who drops the dignity of the Kazakh language dignity, cause damage, interferes with the formation of the people as a nation, of its national identity. They must be kicked out with disgrace from all positions", - stated in the letter, dated 15-25.02. 1944.
