The Village That Stalin Personally Thanked — How Beishike Became Famous
According to her, the name Beishike replaced the previous one in the 1930s and is associated with the phrases "Beish ekan" or "Beish turbaiby," which translates to "This is paradise." Before collectivization, there was a settlement with 30-40 households known as the village of Bayake-baatyr.
In 1929-1930, an agricultural artel was established, and in 1931, the Beishike collective farm was formed, with Achakey Borombaev as its first chairman. At that time, the collective farm had four horse plows, two oxen-drawn seeders, and one stone roller.
During the Great Patriotic War (1941-1945), the collective farm under Borombaev's management became a leader in the republic. Workers sent 100,000 rubles to support the front and received a letter of gratitude from Joseph Stalin. Borombaev also initiated the construction of the Beishike hydroelectric power station on the Chu River, which was the first step towards electrifying the village. In 1946, in recognition of his contributions, the collective farm was renamed the Stalin collective farm.
In 1951, Toobay Kiyizbaev, a horse breeder, was awarded the title of Hero of Socialist Labor for his outstanding achievements in horse breeding, including a 100% survival rate of foals in 1947 and 1948.
Famous Personalities of the Village
Achakey Borombaev (1899-1980) — a prominent economic and public figure, originally from Beishike. Since 1929, he held the position of chairman of the Beishike agricultural artel, under whose leadership the farm significantly expanded, improving the lives of local residents and contributing to the construction of social facilities such as a school and a club.
In 1940, the Beishike collective farm was recognized as a leader and entered the Republican Honor Board. During the war, the collective farm supplied the front with horses, meat, grain, and warm clothing, and Borombaev donated 100,000 rubles from his own funds for the needs of the army, for which he received a letter of gratitude from Stalin.
Borombaev also initiated the construction of the Beishike hydroelectric power station, and in 1946, his collective farm was renamed the Stalin collective farm. He was awarded several orders, including the Order of Lenin, and raised 10 children. In honor of his contributions, one of the streets in the village bears his name.
Toobay Kiyizbaev, born in 1900 in Beishike, began his career in 1930 by joining the collective farm and leading a field brigade. In 1940, he was honored to participate in the All-Union Agricultural Exhibition in Moscow. From 1941 to 1942, Kiyizbaev served in the Soviet Army, and after the war, he became a horse breeder. He achieved remarkable results, producing 50 foals from 50 mares. For his achievements, he became a Hero of Socialist Labor in 1948.
Kiyizbaev also actively participated in state activities, serving as a deputy of the Supreme Soviet of the Kyrgyz SSR of the third convocation.
Kanybek Osmonaliyev, born on November 19, 1953, in Beishike, became a well-known athlete and public figure. He made history as the first Kyrgyzstani to become a champion of the XXII Summer Olympic Games and a four-time world champion in weightlifting. In 2013, he shared his memories of childhood, the hardships of losing his father at an early age, and his sports career, which began with football and basketball.
Veterans of the Great Patriotic War
Nine people left the village for the front, of whom six returned: Osmонов Abdarasul, Alymkulov Shamsidin, Jumagulov Kairkul, Mederbekov Akmat, Kochkorbaev Zainidin, and Makeshov Kulush.
Today, the village of Beishike has four streets — named after Achakey Borombaev, Kanybek Osmonaliyev, Southern, and Zhashtyk (Youth).
