Curtain Politics

Last night i encountered a tv programme 'olduğu gibi', there was a debate on worker and their holiday May 1. A past work and social security bureaucrat who i often see in television while counting quickly nearly all legislation about social security to calculate the last 'kuruş' will be taken after retirement.

It was my first time to listen his ideas about Turkish Political System. While discussing about working conditions, legislations and salary of workers he started to critize Turkish political environment and called our understanding  of politics as 'curtain politics', and he told what politics means as 'fair distribution of a nation's wealth'. Yes it is, you are completely right in your analysis, but can this dream come to happen?

about the odd man

A man lives in a closed environment who has small number of  friends tends to be more emotional, his threashold of temper decreases,  and responds to simple situations much sharper. He much more cares about words used while calling him, especially by ones, he calls friends.

SBRI Presentation

I made SBRI presentation in today's lecture.
