BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE..


Those who are following this web site must have read the article named ‘’The Tents’’ which was published approximately one month ago.

Let us remember;

Following the title it said ‘’The nights on the Mediterranean are very special, but the life in the tents is very different.’’

I think most of us could not notice this reality which is concerning a lot of people.

Today, the climatic conditions are different than they were in autumn...  Now, the titles that we see in the press are ‘’Have you stayed till morning in a wet tent?..    Following autumn winter comes...’’

A life story belonging to a member of a tent is summarised as follows:-

Here is Kaynaţlý. In every tent, there is the shadow of  a star that has lost much of its brilliance.  Halim, who has lost half of his family is telling how the days are passing:-

-We are gathering around the fire and thinking...

His wife interrupts him;

-The only thing that we  do is  to sit in a corner and cry...’

In this way or another...  What is important is the period following this.

The approaching winter would be tough. It is extremely difficult, almost impossible for  our people to continue living in the tents in this same manner and overcome the heavy conditions...

We suggest the following regarding the above:-

Until the prefabricated residences are completed, the government has to place the habitants of the tent cities immediately in  secure places or in the hotels that it is going to provide  where they can stay and have their meals .

A warm place and the governmental guarantee that they are not going to loose their belongings which they have left behind would be enough to make them feel happy.

This action has to be taken immediately before it becomes too late.

I hope that it can be finished. 

Hoping to meet you next week...
