service building as befits Bingöl and aims to provide the best, highest quality
service to its member. I wholeheartedly congratulate my brother Mahmut Ayas,
the President of the Chamber, and his administration for bringing this
beautiful work to life. Our chamber is also an accredited chamber. In other
words, it is certified to offer you 5-star service. Our Chamber increases its
service capacity and quality with each passing day and becomes an interpreter
for the problems of our members. It makes every effort to solve its problems. I
say may Allah be pleased with him.”

chambers are the main representation centers of the business world, the TOBB

beautify and produce services. With this new service building, our Chamber will
continue to make even greater contributions to the development of Bingöl. We
are also working with our President Mahmut at TOBB in Ankara. We are also
together in the management of Kapıköy, our customs gate to Iran. He is also on
our Board of Vocational Education. Today, my brother Mahmut has a great share
in the success of TOBB and our Chamber-Commodity Exchanges in vocational education.”
- TOBB's contributions
to the region
Hisarcıklıoğlu stated
that as TOBB, they have brought important works to Bingöl and said, “We built
480 earthquake houses in 2003-2004. In 2015, we built our Cevdet Yılmaz
Secondary School with 32 classrooms. Bingöl deserves the best of all these
services. After that, we give our best support. Our Chamber and Mahmut
President are also carrying out works that add value to Bingöl and at the same
time bringing every effort of yours to Ankara and looking for a solution.
During the pandemic period, he became an interpreter for your troubles. He
collected your problems and suggestions. Together, we have communicated these
to the government. We also got results from a significant part of them. A lot
of support and arrangements have been implemented.”
Hisarcıklıoğlu, who
also gave the good news that TOGG will be ready on October 29 in his speech,
said, “But our problems are not over, of course there are problems. We
constantly express these and strive to provide solutions. For example, in loan
rates and limits, we were all experiencing great difficulties. First we met
with our Central Bank, then with our public banks, at TOBB. Also in June, TOBB
Türkiye Economic Council was attended by our Vice President, Ministers of Finance,
Industry, Trade and Energy. Our Chamber-Commodity Exchange Presidents also
convey all the problems and solution proposals in the market. As the voice of
our members, we become their interpreters. This is the duty given to us by law.
The executive authority and responsibility belongs to our government. But let's
always keep one thing in mind. When they are one and together, Allah gives
mercy and blessings. As long as we don't alienate each other. Let's not exclude
anyone because of their opinion, their beliefs. Know that we can overcome every
problem with common sense and dialogue. Then, we will move our country forward
together.”
