We don't need schools especially anymore. We have TV and the Internet.
I see that you are not convinced, then, do you take bribes? :sneaky:
It is count down to the tenders, its happening this year.
If tenders don't turn up the required interest then a slow paced central budget funding could be applicable.
It depends on what the investor want. If they are OK to hold the lease for a longer time and get the money from the Canal alone then no guaranties is an option. If there is a lack of investor interest in the project then the investors may want the return on investment in a shorter time in which...
Minister related to Canal Istanbul made some statements.
Construction will take 6 years.
Current calculations show $600-700mn revenue per year.
Imagine you are sitting at an underground restaurant on the sides of Canal Istanbul and watching the marine life swimming through the passage as you...

That's because you overlook the realities and can not wrap your head around the fact that Turks have been miserable guardians of a homeland full of natural resources. Making Canal Istanbul is another means that will make good use of geographic advantages and will bring riches to the nation. We...
We should do everything but we can't squeeze too many things in a short time as it will cause some alarm bells to ring. The main thing we can do is to conduct as many research projects as we possibly can and strengthen our industry base. The ability to make many things locally is more valuable...
The world economy is doing bad now and we have a good chance to build the canal at a lower cost.
We won't have to make concessions to make it happen. It will cost around $10bn and it has a chance to pay it off in a few years. It is economically very profitable and politically very beneficial. If...

"Silah tasarımları konusunda iddialı olduklarını ve yeni projelerin olduğunu ifade eden Aral, “2017, 2018, 2019 ve 2020 yılında tasarım ödülleri aldık. Bu sene de çok büyük sürprizlerimiz var. Biz her zaman müşterilerimizin sesini dinliyoruz. Pazarı, ihtiyaçları ve değişkenlikleri çok iyi takip...
