Releasing a message regarding Fathers’ Day, TOBB President M. Rifat Hisarcıklıoğlu emphasized that fatherly love forms a very special bond and went on to say, “They live for their children before themselves; this is one of the two main sources of sustenance for human spirituality. Even when they aren’t with us, as long as we continue to feel the values taught to us and the love, they are like a sturdy sycamore behind us.”
Hisarcıklıoğlu said in his message:
“The word ‘father’ is in recalls to mind first a safe harbor, self-sacrifice beyond one’s life and love. The father is the main pillar of the family.
As children we should show them love and respect not just on Fathers’ Day, but every day of the year while utilizing the opportunities to the best of our ability to serve our nation. This is the greatest gift we can give to our fathers.
It is with these thoughts and feelings that I, on behalf of the Turkish business world, celebrate this most significant day for all fathers.”
