“Free market economy. This is the hometown of tourism, the richest people in the world are coming here. Businessmen, artists, statesmen, oligarchs, kings, princes prefer this place. Their expectations in terms of service are very high. Maybe they want doner food in a golden plate. Or He wants to eat a lamb that is organic, specially grown, and has never used any medicine. The product to offer it is in Bodrum. I think we should be proud of it as Bodrum. Don’t be misunderstood, we don’t have to go anywhere. I am a Turkbuku. I don’t have to go to business, but there are people who choose it, Bodrum needs it too. he goes, he goes to Ibiza. He doesn’t come to Bodrum. “
“WE ARE LIABLE TO TAKE THE MONEY IN THE MOBILE TO THE END OF THE TOURIST”
Pointing out that Bodrum’s bread money is tourism, Aras continued his words as follows:
“We are not saying that we are tourists, our citizens, we are responsible for taking the money in your pocket until the end. The man has put money in his pocket, why not spend it? If he wants to give 100,000 TL to a doner, give him a meal. What is to me. But here he returns 20 TL. If you are hesitating that it should be TL, you apply to our municipality and I will check it to the end.If that shop is dirty, if there is no proper service in that shop, if you think there is a difference between the service you receive and the money you pay, we will check it until the end.
“Tradesman is in Hard Condition”
Pointing out that the costs of tradesmen increased during the pandemic period, Bodrum Mayor Ahmet Aras said, “There is no job at the moment. On the one hand, there are many criteria such as disinfection, hygiene, mask that we want to do. Do these, open between tables and sell cheaply, this is really hard nowadays. I say, May Allah help our shopkeepers. Our shopkeepers are in a very difficult situation now. But being in a difficult situation does not mean that it will save itself by selling it at a high price. We have to create that balance very well, “he said.
