The majority of people are against it and satisfied with the current system that is all you need to know.
So why doesn't opposition and seculars allow for a referendum to put this issue to rest once for all?
Till yesterday nearly all the products that you use in Turkish Army were products of a Presidental Country since 1789 which has a GDP of 20 times more than Turkey. It is a clear success story.
Not to mention, China is also a Presidential system.
For fast growth and development, Presidential system seems much suited.
As I often say, secular Turks should not vehemently oppose a proposal just because its Erdogan's proposal. Look whats best for Turkey.
Information Valley's foundation, which will direct Turkey’s future, is being laid today. It's being expected an annual turnover of $50 billion from the valley.
Information Valley, which is being founded to boost Turkey’s competitive power in the global innovation and information technologies areas, will be built across 3 million sqm land in Kocaeli, Gebze. Stating that Information Valley is one of the Turkey’s giant projects, he said Information Valley will be one of the world’s most global addresses with regard to innovation and R&D. The valley will contain global innovation and technology transfer centres and prototype testing workshops. About 5.000 R&D companies will be situated in the valley together with almost 10.000 R&D employees. Information Valley will also provide housing for the employees, as well as production, service, employment and living centre with several suppliers and logistic firms.
The project was designed to involve a 1.5 million sqm closed area and a 1.250.000 sqm office area. There will also be social facilities in the valley including tennis, basketball and volleyball courts, football pitches and a golf course. Moreover, schools will also be built in the field for employees’ children.
When the project is realized, Turkey will be one of the most important centres with regard to information technology in the region. “Turkey, which has strategic position that unites Europe, the Far East, the Middle East and Africa, intends to boost its share in technological exports with products ‘Made in Turkey’ with the slogan of ‘Made from Turkey’ to provide goods based on its technology,” the minister said. Additionally he said with this initiative, it will be possible to make Information Valley into a catalyst for, technological growth, innovation and capital accumulation and development, as offering economic and social development model.
What is the time frame of this project? When will this valley be fully operational?
