That’s simply bull. Young engineers, and when they have enough experience and usd/euro comes knocking with better work terms like 7-8h a day and 6-7 weeks vacation with annual salary climbing near or above 100k usd. Only a fool would say no.True and that is why TAI's Temil Kotil himself said that they are targeting engineers from even a young age, especially those who are at their first year of universities. Moreover, Techno Fest exists for a reason; i-e, to propel young minds to start working to develop such projects.
BTW, according to Temil Kotil, most of the engineers involved in TAI and Hurjet are actually the young new generation
And to stop the brain drain, you need infrastructure and Stable economy; I know that the economy's inflation is skyrocketing due to low interest rates but Turkey also needs infrastructure and such is only built by those who are EXTREMELY PATRIOTIC only even if they are a bit denser than other Turkish engineers who leave the country.
I was always thought that Rome wasnt built in a day; some sacrificies and blood is necessary to pave the way for future generations
Yes, some engineers are brighter than TAI's current engineers but refused to stay and invest in their country due to inflation etc; however, if such engineers cant even risk their lives for their country, how do you expect them to stay during events such as war etc? How do you expect them to pave the way of the future generations by acting as role models when they escaped the country due to inflation alone?
When Ataturk took command of the remaining Turkish army, after the Ottoman collapse and defeat, Turkey was just a small land but he strived and spilled blood to restore the Turkish glory and make a state where Turkish citizens can live with dignity. He could have just escaped and went to any other nation and offer his services for their armies but he didnt and took the hard path
I respect each and every Turkish engineer who, despite the current economic conditions, remained in Turkey to build the path through which the future generations can use to defend themselves. Yes they may be denser than others who escaped in terms of talent or intelligence but for sure their hearts are weaker to NONE!
Develop a shitty plane today and develop a better one tomorrow but the most important step is to develop the PLANE
Don’t waste your breath we’ve already talked this over once before and many others have given examples on the reason for the brain drain. The only question worth answering is whether it’s a sustainable strategy or not.
