Shahzoda – Assalomu Alaykum

Here is a great video and song by Uzbek singer, Shahzoda, titled Assalomu Alaykum.  This song looks at corruption.  In the video, an older Uzbek Muslim could not get a required signature since he did not pay the bank director a bribe.  One of the bank workers, a practicing Muslim, helps him.  In the end the bank director is arrested when he takes a bribe from police.
