'Our work is not done yet' | Minister Kurum shared the praise of the citizen of Hatay

Life is coming to life again in Hatay, which was heavily destroyed in the Disaster of the Century. Within the scope of the Construction of the Century Campaign carried out in 11 provinces, Antakya Atatürk Street was rebuilt in cooperation with TOKİ and Emlak Konut GYO, under the coordination of the Ministry of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change.

Bülent Artun was one of the beneficiaries who found their new home with 5 thousand 933 independent sections completed. Murat Kurum, the Minister of Environment, Urbanization and Climate Change, shared the images of the earthquake victim Artun with the message: "Hatay was one of the cities where we worked the hardest in the Construction of the Century. Our work is not finished yet. But thank God, our fellow citizens are now in their own homes. Let Bülent tell the rest, not me."

"I DID NOT EVEN IMAGINE THAT WE COULD RETURN TO ANTAKYA AGAIN"

Speaking about the difficult days he experienced after the earthquake, earthquake survivor Bülent Artun said, "I did not even imagine that one day we would be able to return to Antakya again. Because after the debris was removed, everywhere was a field, everything was destroyed and spilled. People were very miserable. Thanks to the State of the Republic of Turkey, the city stood up. Life has begun now. As you can see, we are sitting in our house. It is a magnificent view."

"THE STATE OF THE REPUBLIC OF Türkiye HAS PROVIDED US WITH ITS ARMS"

Underlining that the works were carried out with great devotion, Artun said, "There is doing a job wholeheartedly, and there is also doing it reluctantly. In Antakya, we worked wholeheartedly. Everything is very different, everything is very new. In our words, we call it 'cillop'. The state father made these places like 'cillop'. Thanks to the State of the Republic of Turkey, it took us under its wing. It gave us a new life, new hopes, new beauties."
