Expressing his pleasure in visiting Tokat, TOBB President M. Rifat
Hisarcıklıoğlu said, “I wish the Governor success during his term in Tokat. I
would like to thank him for the vision he provides Tokat. It is of the utmost
significance that he has declared 2015 the year of tourism. Considering Tokat
houses historical artifacts from the Ottoman, Seljuk and other periods, there
is great potential.”
Hisarcıklıoğlu, quoting Sheikh Edebali’s saying, “No flower blooms
before its time,” said, “It is now Tokat’s time to bloom with the Governor.
Tokat was the capital for the Danishmends. A capital is always a capital. The
spirit of a capital is within you.”
Governor Can expressed his pleasure in the fact that Hisarcıklıoğlu had
relegated the whole day to Tokat and said, “Welcome to hallowed and prosperous
lands.”
Hisarcıklıoğlu presented Governor Can with a copy of the Yunus Emre
poetry compilation edited by TOBB, “From Yunus’ Rose Garden” while Governor Can
presented Hisarcıklıoğlu with copper and Tokat manuscripts.
