A frame reflected in the lenses in Antalya reveals the behind the scenes of the economic crisis in our country with all its clarity.
While the hippodrome and prison established in Antalya during the Justice and Development Party (AKP) rule can be seen in the photograph in question, on the other side of the photograph, the Antalya Organized Industrial Facility, which was established as a National Vision (Milli Görüş) service in 1977 when late Prof. Dr. Necmettin Erbakan was the deputy prime minister, can be seen.
Two contrasting landscapes fit into one photograph offer the decipherment of the Turkish economy.
ONE OF THE SYMBOLS OF THE “PRODUCTIVE TURKEY” IDEAL
Antalya Organized Industrial Zone, which was established on an area of 370 hectares (3,700,000 m2) with the Decree of the Council of Ministers dated 16.08.1977 and numbered 7/13742, has the distinction of being one of the first organized industrial zones established in our country by determining its location and borders.
Its official establishment took place during the 41st government, when the leader of National Vision, lae Prof. Dr. Necmettin Erbakan, was the state minister and deputy prime minister.
Antalya Organized Industrial Zone, which has been a source of bread for thousands of people during its years of operation, continues to be one of the symbols of the ideal of "producing Turkey", which is now a memory of the past.
COMPLETED IN 5 YEARS, THE HIPODROM IS OPENING TOMORROW
The official opening of Antalya Hippodrome, which started in 2017 and took about 5 years, is planned to be opened on 19 January 2022 (tomorrow).
Antalya Racecourse is proud to be the third largest racecourse in Turkey after Diyarbakir and Ankara racecourses.
Millions of TL has been spent in the construction of the hippodrome, which was built on 811 decares of land, from the state's coffers.
NUMBER OF PRISONS CONTINUOUSLY INCREASING
One of the consequences of the increase in material and moral crisis in Turkey was the increase in prisons in the country.
In our country, where the number of criminals and convicts is constantly increasing, many new prisons are being built every year, and the government's view of this monstrosity as a source of pride is met with reaction.
