Abdubek, 46, is the inheritor of the Kirgiz epic Manas. He has been devoted to the performance of the epic since childhood and now he provides guidance for apprentices for free. Manas tells the story of the hero Manas and his descendants who fought against various evil forces. The epic covers all aspects of the historical life of the Kirgiz ethnic group and can be regarded as an encyclopedia for the study of Kirgiz. It is a valuable asset for the Kirgiz people and the Chinese culture. Manas was inscribed on the UNESCO's Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2009.
