On the 11th anniversary of his death, the late National Vision (Milli Görüş) Leader Prof. Dr. Necmettin Erbakan is commemorated with prayers in many parts of Turkey.
The "Commemoration and Understanding of Erbakan" program, organized by the Felicity (Saadet) Party Konya Provincial Presidency with the participation of Saadet Party Chairman Temel Karamollaoğlu, was held with intense participation.
“ERBAKAN HAS WARNED, TODAY WE ARE SEEING IT FROM EVERY ASPECT”
Saadet Party Konya Provincial Chairman Hüseyin Saydam, who made the opening speech of the program and reminded Erbakan's words "The earth is slipping under us", and said, "Our Erbakan Hodja had warned many times before his death that the ground was slipping under us. Today, we see this in every aspect. While commemorating our Erbakan Hodja; I think we all need to re-understand his politics, ideals and, while doing this, especially to our members of the organization, his sacrifice, struggle and effort."
“ERBAKAN HODJA LAID THE FOUNDATIONS OF THE INTEREST-FREE ECONOMY”
Underlining that Necmettin Erbakan has high ideals, Saadet Party Chairman Temel Karamollaoğlu said, "Necmettin Erbakan was an idealistic person. Our teacher had very high ideals. The heavy industry move it started, the D-8 Islamic Union, is a result of these ideals. Our Erbakan Hodja has become a leader who knows how to overcome obstacles at every opportunity. As a matter of fact, when faced with the 1972 Memorandum, the problems that occurred were eliminated by Erbakan himself. So much so that our Erbakan Hodja did not give up despite the obstacles and prohibitions. Various services were created with the greatest alliance in Turkish political history that took place later. Many events took place, such as the conquest of Cyprus, with the coming together of two opposing parties. Again, with the heavy industry move that was initiated at that time, Turkey started to grow. The interest-free economy was introduced. While the people who run the country today see interest as the reality of the world, our teacher Erbakan laid the foundations of an interest-free economy."
"WE HAVE TO SEE HIS ATTITUDE AND POLITICS WHILE MEMORITING ERBAKAN HODJA"
Karamollaoğlu, who stated that it was necessary to state that he did politics honestly while commemorating Necmettin Erbakan, stated that National Vision movement prioritized honesty in politics.
"Honesty is our motto, we cannot lie. We cannot slander anyone, we cannot be unfair. We cannot intrude on public property. But in today's political atmosphere, deception, slander, and lies have become so common that it's unbelievable. Fear God. Today, we see with sadness that some mistakes have become almost a habit. These need to be completely resolved. If we are going to commemorate our Erbakan Hodja, we have to see his attitude and politics. So much so that the most important feature of our Erbakan Hodja was that he took care of his values. Today, we cannot solve any problem with enmity and slander," Karamollaoglu added.
“WE HAVE TO REMEMBER THE IDEAS OF OUR ERBAKAN HODJA”
Underlining that Necmettin Erbakan is in favor of peace and reconciliation at every opportunity, Karamollaoğlu said, "Our teacher Erbakan emphasized that it is always necessary to act jointly for the country's issues. His services with the coalitions are also a sign of this. Our Erbakan Hodja served even with groups that were seen as impossible to come together. So much so that he was in favor of reconciliation and peace. Today, polarization and separation do not benefit anyone. There is no more outrageous understanding than the understanding that you are either with us or you are a traitor. We, as National Vision community, know that we can only solve today's mistakes if we come together. In this direction, we have to always remember the basic ideas of our teacher Erbakan."
“TURKEY'S POTENTIAL WILL BE REVEALED BY NATIONAL VISION”
Karamollaoğlu stated that there will be no poor and unemployed people under the rule of National Vision, and that Turkey's real potential will be revealed with National Vision.
"There will be no unemployed or poor people under the rule of National Vision. Everyone will trust in justice. Everything is possible to change. Turkey has a potential, but revealing this potential will be with National Vision. In this way, it is possible to commemorate and understand our Erbakan Hodja. Our teacher gave importance to spiritual development as much as material development. Our first goal is to make our country a livable country. There will be no unemployed people in this country, and a government that responds to every need will be with National Vision," Karamollaoglu said.
