We will mobilize all relevant groups in regards to the various aspects of economy in all provinces to see the problems and potential of the provinces’ real sectors, create visions for cities and assess demands of cities with the support of agricultural, trade and industry chambers, commodity exchanges, development agencies, universities, businessmen and consumer associations; coordinating between a central institution to be established to this end and the ministries, making sure that the right projects are actualized. We will also engage in closer relations with all institutions which are a part of financial life in Turkey in order to accelerate the development of Turkey’s economy. In order to fulfill the 2023 economic and political vision, we will engage in yearly plans and I hope that TOBB will be a major contributor in this process.”
