Minister of Commerce Ömer Bolat attended the tradesmen’s meeting program held by People’s Alliance ABB Presidential candidate Turgut Altınok, with business people operating in Yenimahalle and Altındağ, in Ulucanlar Prison.

Stating that he worked as a blacksmith in his late father Şevki Bolat’s blacksmith shop during the holidays during his primary school years and sold plates in the market, Bolat said that he also spent his high school and university years working. Stating that he spent approximately 42 years of school and business life in the business world, from apprenticeship to the Ministry of Commerce, Bolat gave information about the activities of the ministry.

“Turkey’s 2023 national income will be announced tomorrow”

Reminding that the number of 1000 exporters, 25 thousand companies and tradesmen in Turkey in 1980 was below 1 million, Bolat reminded that the exports based on 5 agricultural products at that time were 2 billion 900 million dollars. Noting that at the end of 2002, 36 billion dollars of exports were made with 35 thousand exporters, Bolat stated that in 2022, 256 billion dollars of exports were realized with 140 thousand exporters. Pointing out that this figure has now increased to 258 billion dollars at the end of the first 2 months, Bolat emphasized that it is aimed to reach 267 billion dollars at the end of the year.

Bolat pointed out that the employment figure in Turkey was 19 million in 2002, and that the employment figure for December 2023 was announced as 32 million employment, and a net employment increase of 13 million was achieved in 21 years.

“We don’t live on an island, whatever happens in the world affects us too.”

Bolat underlined that the Gezi events dealt a big blow to the Turkish economy and said, “There was a police and judiciary coup attempt on 17-25 December and a military coup attempt on 15 July 2016. But this beloved nation successfully repelled all these attempts under the leadership of our President. People’s Alliance “It showed great solidarity. Solidarity was shown with the AK Party, MHP, Grand Unity Party and other parties.” made his assessment.

“Ankara has not seen anything in 5 years”

Pointing out that there will be economic development in a country with peace, trust and political stability, Bolat continued as follows:

“In 25 years, Ankara has become a world capital city. But what happened in the last 5 years? Ankara did not see anything in 5 years, it did not lose 5 years, it lost 10 years due to the work that was not done. Not only was no work done, but what was done went backwards. Now, March 31 is ahead of us.” There is a very important opportunity in Turkey. Will Ankara develop, shine and rise as a star city again in 5 years? Local wills are very important in this regard. It can achieve this together with the central government. ‘We are being blocked’ is a complete lie. The money they receive from the budget, along with the increase in the budget, “It has become much more. But the money has gone away with social media expenses for lots of advertisements, concerts and personal advertisements.”

Bolat stated that all hospitals and schools in Turkey have been renewed in the last 5 years and the number of universities increased from 76 to 210, and said, “Therefore, dear Ankara residents, we should never forget these facts while casting your vote. Vote for the future of yourself, your family, your children, your grandchildren, your environment, your neighbors and your business.” “You will.” said.

“Everyone will listen to the voice of their conscience, heart and mind, and use their vote.”

Pointing out that Turgut Altınok’s very successful municipal activities in Keçiören, as a municipalist, urban planner and urban planning expert for years, Bolat continued his words as follows:

“Look at these, listen to your heart, your conscience and your mind while voting, so that we expect you to say ‘I will choose Turgut Altınok for the future of Ankara, the future of my business, the future of my family’. We trust and believe in you. In this sense, we are in the fair industry and the defense industry.” “Our Ankara will shine like a star again in agriculture and industry. Thanks to the actions of our central government, Ankara has become an export city. Ankara has an export of 11 billion dollars in 2023, in goods exports. It has become the center of the defense industry. Turkey is now among the top 6 countries in the world in the defense industry.” . I met with nearly 100 foreign ministers in these 9 months. I hear words of praise from each of them: ‘Turkey is very successful, it has become stronger in the economy. It is very successful in the defense industry.’ “This is a great prestige. Ankara has become the center of this business. Ankara has become the center of services and health tourism.”

“The limit per tradesman has been increased to 750 thousand liras”

Reminding that during the AK Party government, job opportunities for tradesmen grew, the support given to tradesmen increased, and 450 billion lira of subsidized support was given in 21 years, Bolat concluded his words as follows:

“I would like to give the following good news for today. The limit per tradesman was previously 500 thousand liras, a few months ago it was increased to 650 thousand liras, today I say it has been increased to 750 thousand liras. With a cost of 25.5 percent, much lower than market rates, 300 million with a maturity of 5 years “Turkish lira financing support loan to tradesmen through TESKOMB is ready as of tomorrow morning, you can use it, good luck.”

“Our Ankara is entering a new era”

Ankara Chamber of Commerce (ATO) President Gürsel Baran, in his speech, stated that 9 percent of the Gross Domestic Product in per capita national income is in Ankara and said, “I am giving the 2022 figures in per capita national income, 11 thousand 600 dollars is our national income throughout Turkey, Ankara’s “It is around 14 thousand, 13 thousand 900 dollars.” said.

Stating that Ankara has a very different national income per capita with the contribution of the defense industry, Baran said:

“Now, our Ankara is entering a new era. In the next period, one of our brothers, the son of Ankara, is in this race. Our duty is to support this brother as much as we can. We are all on our president’s side. As the ATO management, we have a problem in the next period. “We have no doubt that our president will be there for us when we have troubles or problems. I hope we expect a good outcome together. I say that the outcome will be beneficial for both our city and our country.”
