They get paid in Turkish Lira's, not in euros of dollars like the millions of refugees in the West.

They get paid in the local currency in the West as well. It just happens that the local currencies of the US and most EU countries are very strong currencies.

They get paid in the local currency in the West as well. It just happens that the local currencies of the US and most EU countries are very strong currencies.

So they are a bigger burden for the West.

And in Turkey they dont read George Soros-handbooks how to make local women pregnant, so they are a far bigger danger to the demographics of the West.

So they are a bigger burden for the West.

You do realize that Turkey is the country hosting the most refugees in the World right now?

With 3.5 million refugees, it has many more than any European country. By comparison, the countries with most refugees in Europe are:

Germany - 2 mil
Poland - 0.97 mil
France - 0.6 mil

Basically the top three EU countries in terms of refugees, hold together as many refugees as Turkey.

Turkey is now the third-biggest exporter of scripted series in the world—behind only America and Britain. Between 2020 and 2023 global demand for Turkish shows grew by 184%, compared with 73% for Korean dramas, according to Parrot Analytics, a data firm.

Turkish shows are popular not just in the Middle East but also in Europe and Latin America. Last year the three biggest importers of new Turkish shows were Spain, Saudi Arabia and Egypt. The Istanbul Chamber of Commerce estimates that Turkey’s television exports earned $600m in 2022; some analysts predict their sales will soon total billions.

The third-largest exporter of television is not who you might expect

After America and Britain, Turkey is the biggest seller of scripted shows

Then people have not understood the principle of the economy and its rules; after every upswing comes a period of recession.
This can sometimes last a decade.
Look at Japan after the boom of the 70-80s, the country was in a permanent recession that was very slow to recover.
Young people are also responsible for themselves, if everyone just studies business administration and wants to become a bank manager or IT administrator, then they shouldn't be surprised.
In Turkey there are many vacancies in the defense industry, in medicine and in logistics, you just have to think left and right.
I'm not saying it's easy, but there are jobs in Turkey.

I am from japan (I have a Japanese mother) and know in many area Turkey is narrowing lot of gaps between Japan.(of course S.korean done better than us)

Just think about 2002 no one even think Turkey can develop a M60 tank or any other industrial product.everyone laughs if you say Turkey can export armed Drone,.

the only and biggest problem for these 5-6 year is the current account debt and the dropping of Lira.
The tax and fine of here is far lower than Japan.

Before 2010s almost everyone in world thought Turkiye had only Kebabs and harems…..

Now find a job in Turkey is far far easier than in China.

the only problem is lira dropping but RMB stable.

Just pay in cash and the problem is solved. Dont use the banks.

If you pay cash, they cant monitor anything.

And Turkey is a cash-country. You can alway walk into a bank and just get all your savings cash.

It's not Europe where all the bank offices are closed and you get designated as a terrorist if you use cash money.

TL notes now is too small account to use.

I agree.

We need bigger notes, like 500 of 1000 TL.

 

[Scott Summers]

What the hell are you talking about ?

Cash money and cash payments are both under a huge political attack in the Netherlands.

You expect companies to fly over millions and billions in currency every time they make a deal? You dont make sense in most of your posts, but lucky for you low quality is not a punishable offence rules-wise.

 

[Huelague]

What about a 'new currency' like Bitcoin for exchange?

No, in case of a neighbour like Russia, every Russian firm can create a office in Istanbul for the cash money payment, or the Russian-Turkish Business Forum can create a office in Istanbul for the cash payments of every Turco-Russian trade. In that office you can make cash transactions in lira's and rubbles. After business is finished, you can always turn the local currencies to dollars or euros.

No digital transactions, no dollars or euros. No control, no sanctions. How do you think Iran, Cuba and North Korea handle these things for years under all those sanctions? Cash payment is the solution.

Very good question …

Yes, but was Şimşek in charge when we fell in the Grey List?

Yes, but was Şimşek in charge when we fell in the Grey List?

Either way, those who were in charged should be trialed for corruption and mismanagement. But obviously this will never happen.
