"Customs officials in the Central Asian country have reportedly refused to allow the importation of black vehicles.

They haven't given a reason for the decision, but are advising importers to buy white vehicles instead because it's considered a lucky colour, the website says. President Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov recently started using a convoy of white limousines to travel to public events, and about 160 top-ranking officials, including the heads of the country's main media outlets, promptly followed suit."

This opponaut is "naught" surprised. Turkmenistan is known for it's arbitrary and ridiculous rules. A previous president of the country Saparmurat Niyazov, imposed a new calendar on his populace in 2002, renaming the days of the week and months of the year after historical Turkmen. However, it turns out that was confusing and so in 2008 after that President died, they reverted to the traditional names.

I'm often amazed at the people who end up as political leaders.
