Rize Commodity Exchange Chairman Mehmet Erdoğan and Parliament Speaker Resul Okumuş visited the Union of Chambers and Commodity Exchanges of Türkiye (TOBB) President M. Rifat Hisarcıklıoğlu at his office with their delegation.
At the reception, TOBB
President Hisarcıklıoğlu wished success for the new term efforts and conveyed
his good wishes.
Mehmet Erdoğan, in his
statement after the visit, included the following views: “We had a very democratic
election on October 3. We had candidates. There were those who came from the
members. In the end, we held an election that pleased all our members. Later we
also received feedback on this. From friends and others who are rivals. The
community of the Union of Chambers, which we see in all institutions, and
chambers and commodity exchanges like ours, which is reflected in the general
public, have held good election in accordance with democracy. Today, with our
request, Mr. President, they received us.We visited with all our council members and
colleagues. We conveyed the information we have about the sectoral problems in
our city. We have seen that the President is as cognizant of our issues as we
are. It was very important. What is valuable for us is the support given by KGF
to tea. Mr. Erdoğan, the president of the KGF, was also here. I thank him very
much. I believe that we will achieve very good results in this unity. On the
day I won the election, I wrote and sent my nomination letter for Mr. President.
I think Türkiye needs Mr. Rifat. We are also ready to take any task in the
administrations or boards that will be formed here under his auspices. We support him. I hope that a good election
will take place.”
