Citizens in Kadirli district of Osmaniye stated that they are experiencing financial difficulties due to increasing living costs. Stating that their monthly income is not even enough to meet their basic needs, citizens said that they have difficulty making ends meet and that it is not possible to save by saving their income.

"THE SALARY IS ENOUGH FOR 10 DAYS, WE GET 20 DAYS WITH HELP"

Speaking to ANKA News Agency, a retired citizen stated that the salary he receives is enough for 10 days and said, "We make ends meet in 20 days with work and assistance from left and right," and continued as follows:

"I am retired. We cannot afford to save money. The salary exceeds 10 days, and we earn our living by working and receiving help for 20 days. In the past, savings were made, but now people are very desperate. Nobody does it. I was getting 6 quarters with my salary when I retired. Now I am getting 2.5 quarters. How can we save, we cannot feed ourselves."

"I CANNOT FEED MY Tummy SO I CAN GET A QUARTER"

Another citizen stated that he was able to save money in the past, but his income was no longer sufficient and said:

"I can't save money. It used to be possible, now it's not available. No, I can't feed myself so I can buy a quarter of it. If the money they give is stolen for your own money, is that kind of money worth it? They buy 200 thousand liras for themselves, they give us 15 thousand liras. I will eat bagels, bread and pastries for lunch."

Another citizen said, "We can hardly feed ourselves. What color is the quarter gold? I have never seen it, I will never buy it. How will I buy it? How many lira salary do they give me so that I can increase it?" he lamented.
