Business Booms in Turkey and Forges Ground for EU Accession

Amazing Turkey, galloping toward the hope of European Union (EU) accession, is slated to receive more than four billion Euros to invest in the country’s infrastructure before full acceptance.

 

Many people around the world know little, if anything, about Turkey’s business environment and will be surprised to know that Turkey’s economy surpasses that of 12 EU countries. A thriving business community and an economy to match, Turkey now captures the attention of both world leaders and world businesses.

 

Recently, Cem Ozdal posted a laudatory video on Facebook telling you about the many facts and figures that make Turkey the country to look toward for the future. Take a peek and see if you don’t discover newfound respect for the great nation of Turkey: a nation that fought hard to develop and a people who won’t take no for an answer.

 

Tell me after you watch this video if you don’t agree with me that Turkey ranks as the country to watch for fast growth and development, building peace among nations along the way.

Bea, this is a great video, confirming what I am observing about Turkey's vibrant economy in my (so far) three weeks here. I had no idea the Turks are such capitalists! More power to them.

The suburb of Kayseri we live in is certainly booming. Someone described Kayseri as a "boom town" -- it has grown by 100,000 or so within 10 years. High rises are shooting up all over the place. The overly fast construction may lead to some shortcuts taken. OSHA would be horrified.

During the day I constantly hear bulldozers and construction workers. Roads around our new building went unpaved until Monday, when suddenly tar was spread in anticipation of a visit from Turkish president Abdullah Gull that evening. He is from Kayseri and cut the ribbon for our new university, Meliksah, where Lucia teaches English. The buildings for the university have shot up in a matter of months. It was amazing to see how much the construction workers accomplished over the weekend before the President's visit -- they must have worked in 24 hour shifts! We are still living in a dusty neighborhood but it is changing fast.

I have seen a lot of articles and even books talking about the rise of Turkey as a superpower. The economic opportunities available is just one of the many reasons I plan on moving to Turkey.
