Bro, you are quoting BBC News on matters concerning Edrogan? That’s like asking South Koreans what they think about North Koreans, Liverpool fans what the think about Manchester United. Asking Americans what they think about Russians. You will never get an objective answer free of bias.
:D:D[SIZE=5]How can the projects not be his??? Most contractors are his relatives, highschool friends, party loyalists etc. Doesn’t that sound familiar?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=5]Erdogan borrows heavily from foreign countries on their behalf so they can eat. Hio ndio facilitation wanasema. Isn’t this a familiar story?[/SIZE]
[SIZE=5]Also he has been in power since 2003 pretending to hold elections where he always wins! Power consolidation.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=5]He ticks all the boxes of a corrupt dictator. And finally because of the massive amounts of money he is making he has built vaults in his homes to hold the cash.[/SIZE]
Major contractors owe about $56 billion in foreign currency loans. Much of that money is tied up in Erdogan’s megaprojects, which enjoy government financial guarantees.
Analysts say Erdogan and builders — one prominent contractor is a friend from high school — developed a dangerous symbiosis.
“Property developers and construction companies have been with him since day one. His inner circle largely consists of large contractors. Whatever he does, he has to keep them happy,” said one financial analyst, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to avoid angering the government
:D:D you expect local media to criticize the dictator? You will be purged like he is doing currently. He is purging all his enemies critical to his leadership style.
He created a coup so he could remove his many enemies including in the army and intelligence. In such an environment you keep your mouth shut or you are next.

Loool!! They do not like you.
Turks dislike Arabs and in the words of Ataturk, the founder of the Republic of Turkey “backward uncivilized savages.”
Even under the Ottoman Empire even Jews were given higher positions than Arabs ever were.
Right now, the mayor of Istanbul was recently complaining about Arabic signs in the city and quite literally in both Erdogan strongholds and the ones managed by the CHP the term “Fuck The Arabs” is used in protests.
Turks consider themselves either Turks with links to Central Asia or Europeans who form most of the population.
At no point have Turks ever associated themselves with Arabs or Arabism, seeing Arabs as inferior and it is why Turkey is a secular and constitutional Republic with zero Sharia law.
They dislike Africans even more and Somalia is simply their version of Niger to France. A country to exploit and discard at a later date.
Turks do not consider Somalis Arabs BTW, but Africans. And they do not use nice terms to describe Somalis at all.
