Erdogan said that Turkey achieve 60 million tourists and get large income from tourism is the result of the steps taken.
“to appreciate good deeds is a sign of virtue. The advantage of Turkey is that it has the opportunity to satisfy its needs based on the latest technologies and systems, since in the past it did not have a strong and functional infrastructure. It is unlikely that you can find a job in the world which would be as modern as our hospitals, as new as our schools, as comfortable as our roads, and as spacious as our airports, ”the Turkish leader emphasized.

“We turned to more ambitious goals with the concept of the” Age of Turkey “. Our goal is now not to catch up with developed countries, but to take a place in their first rows. We want to leave our youth a country that we can be proud of in all areas, with its politics, economics and defense. For this we work day and night. We are considering every new investment, which we put into operation as a new step along the way. Our city Hospital of Antalya will accept not only local ones, since Antalya is a tourist city, here Tourists come for treatment from abroad, ”added Erdogan.
