I’m not sure if “observer” is Turkish, but this is all true… It’s very miserable and pathetic to see someone that made it to the highest point of Turkish government, while being one of the most corrupt person alive in Turkey.

This is a fact.

Erdogan is corrupt and he is an islamic fascist. He is fooling the people through his rhetoric but I dont see him trying to provide them with an education or job opportunities. The only opportunities are for him, his relatives and those that have the same belief system as he does. His
family now controls41% of the media. He has done this by finding tax problems with these companies and forcing them to sell (to him). He or his family has stakes in energy, minerals, diamond retailers - you name it - he has his finger in it.

I know that pakistan cant really see that this is just corruption of the highest degree. I wonder if they think that requirements in civilised western countries for politicians to declare their wealth and give up active business life whilst they are in government are stupid or whether they are good for the people.
This is not democracy not matter what you link to think and to those of from the more civilised parts of the world where women are not used as a tool of political violence or oppression it is truly digusting to watch someone who has only ever held two government roles after growing up as poor as a church mouse turning himself and his family into one of the wealthiest families in the world. All at the expense of ALL the turkish people. I am wondering when people are going to stand up and say enough is enough and demand the politicians politic for ALL the people of the country regardless of whether they voted for him. It is called DEMOCRACY.

Indeed, what Erdagon did is a pride for us. It’s a gentle slap on our unconscious leaders.

The attributes which instill such qualities in a ruler depends on the degree by which the leader steers in politics through his own efforts. Unfortunately our leaders are not so but are cronies of their Military, and American bosses mostly. Also, they get succeeded in gripping the office and pushing straightforward politicians like Imran Khan and Asghar Khan Etc by making bombastic claims and thus making use of unaware public.

If you are thinking why our Murshid PM can’t act so the answer is simple: he has to get permission from PPP-made President!!

Thank you Erdagon,

Dear Doctor Kundi,
Just think of Pakistani leadership when it got independence.Quaid e Azam Jinnah, Zafarullah Khan(not a Muslim now as per current law), Your first law minister a Hindu. Pakhtoon leadership under Frontier Gandhi.All giants of men.Even your miitary leadership used to be respected by British generals.Read the speech by Jinnah when you got independence.
Today your country’s leadership is decimated by your Military leadership who have been acting as the mercenary force of Americans(as per Dr.Sheren mazari).Even in sports in Squash Jehangir Khan used to be a legend.
Turkeys Erdogan is having DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS WITH ISRAEL and so he can talk his mind.But your leadership is in the hands of black goggled Saudi princes who think an American wife is the achievement of their life.
Sub continent had the first woman Muslim Princess Razia Sultan who is famous for her leadership skills.
First Muslim elected PM Benazir who could be eliminated by COWARDS only by killing.They cannot win an open election by winning the hearts of people.
SWAT,FATA,Wazirstan. They will not kill the jihadies who close girls schools, dig dead bodies but will not allow Americans to do it for them.
Even today there is no Muslim women of the calibre of Sherry rehman, Marvi Memon,Maleeha lodhi,Asma Jehangir etc in other parts of Muslim world
But i cannot say that about your MEN
