buying gold makes no sense, you still effectively pay the same price that is determined on the international markets.

ISTANBUL

Reforms in capital and labor markets, taxation, and education should start without delay, the head of a Turkish business body said on Wednesday.

"Even if these reforms will bear results in the medium term, they will produce confidence building effects in the short term," Simone Kaslowski, the Turkish Industry and Business Association (TUSIAD), told a high advisory meeting in Istanbul.

TUSIAD will support the program of the economy administration, and its steps for reforms, he said.

Kaslowski underlined that the next four-year period until the next elections in Turkey was a great opportunity for realizing structural reforms.

"The whole society should focus on Turkey’s agenda and structural solutions by putting our political differences aside," he said.

In the global area, a “cold fact” stands before Turkey in different areas, including technology, energy, transportation, security, and foreign policy, said Kaslowski.

“[It is] to swing Turkey’s compass towards the EU and taking firm steps accordingly.”

The main aim of TUSIAD is to see a competitive Turkey with a strong economy, he added.

Macroeconomic stability, strong institutions, the rule of law, and high democratic standards are essentials of sustainable development, Kaslowski said.

"Wherever these standards are met, sustainable development, investment, production, employment, productivity, and digital transformation are possible, and these are our responsibilities."

TUSIAD, established in 1971, represents around 4,500 companies with its nearly 700 business-people members.

Millions of people in Turkey are barely able to afford food dur to rising inflation and then their tax money goes to feeding people in Argentina... one of the most wealthy countries in south America.

I understand that it's only a small amount in this case. But the Turkish government keeps on wasting money on others while not giving a sh!t about their own citizens.
 
It's because foreign powers you traitors... :sarcastic:

You are laughing but in Turkiye millions believe that. I always say that political islam is a threat for us and for the future of Türkiye. In the past they gave us the life what we are living right now. Nothing different.
Luckily young Turks can see the reality despite the elderly(dinosaur) Turks. That's why I still have hope.
 
Turkish economy getting worse and worse day by day. End the effects of it started to be seen. A couple of days ago a husband murdered his own wife just because he didn't have money to buy some groceries from the fresh market. Today a guy who set himself on fire last weak lost his life in hospital.

He was unemployed for a long while and having psychological problems due to be unemployment.

We are gonna see more and more in future the tragic things happen to people in Turkiye as the economy goes deep and deeper down.
