В этом контексте особое значение имеет награждение Мухаммета Ходжаева денежной премией в размере 70 000 манатов со стороны уважаемого Президента Туркменистана Сердара Бердымухамедова. Эта награда является не просто материальной поддержкой, но и символом высокого доверия, уважения и оценки, данной государством молодому атлету.
