Quoting aenigma x: Quoting MrX67: well,Turkey had a few some unlucky and sad experiences in a short past,but i think results of this election will bring more stability for Turkish democracy.And not easy to block all illegal organizations,sure our great republic capable to creat peace&defence itself from all provacations... |
Well, I certainly wish I shared your optimism MrX67  . Your country's best selling novelist may be able to return from his exile in the US some day - who knows? 
Unfortunately, having read the recent posts from yourself and your countrymen lately, I think we will have a long wait  |

Yes maybe they interest us, only because we are interested in Turkey, but I think it is more of a case that it is non of our business. Same as any election in any country - it is the business of those who live there.

I think he's a good writer but I have to admit that I started one of his books and it waits to be finished for months

I did not know he was in exile in the USA, because there's no restriction for him to come to Turkey and maybe he's in Turkey, I thought he was in İstanbul. The trial dropped in 2006.

Actually i dont think so. If there is an election in a country whom an other country has relations with other countries citizens directly effects of the results. Like Turkish citizens are being effected by Germany's,UK's,USA's France',Armenia's,Greece's,Eastern Cyprus',Iraq's,Russia's,Iran's..........and all others. Together with that foreigners joining that site interest with Turkey & Travel to Turkey evan move to Turkey..What can be more normal than wondering about elections for those foreigners?

Not saying he is not a good author - just a boring one (in my opinion)! I also read he is exile in the USA but maybe the only person who knows where Orhan Pamuk is is he himself!

From the official Orhan Pamuk site: www.orhanpamuk.net
Apart from three years in New York, Orhan Pamuk has spent all his life in the same streets and district of Istanbul, and he now lives in the building where he was raised. Pamuk has been writing novels for 30 years and never done any other job except writing. His books have been translated into more than 40 languages.
i.e. he currently lives in Nişantaşı, Istanbul

Quoting MarioninTurkey: Keith
Thanks for the clarification ... your profile lists your home page as CNNTurk ...! Can I call on you if I have any engineering problems???
Even if we exclude constitutional changes, a government can ensure a whole raft of policies become law. Their vote increased the reduction in seats came from MHP crossing the barrage this time.
As foreigners we just have to hope for the best outcome for Turkey in all of this. |
The next time you are constructing a power generation facility, let me know and I will give you a great discount.
Erdogan has been in power for years now. There was no real protest to his governing until he decided to attempt to become President. This is a constitutaional item. So I do not have a problem with AK Parti as long as they leave the constitution alone.
