Union of Chambers and Commodity Exchanges of Turkey

Hisarcıklıoğlu stated that TOBB and chambers/chambers of commerce are the most democratic institutions in Türkiye and said that the members of the council are elected, not appointed. Emphasizing that the members are the opinion leaders of the provinces and districts, he said that the entrepreneur is a person who comes from scratch, takes risks, dreams, sets goals, loses, wins and that is why they are strong.

Emphasizing that there is no money in these jobs, Hisarcıklıoğlu said that they sacrifice their jobs, homes and friends. Hisarcıklıoğlu explained that these positions are opportunities for the hereafter and that the best of people is the one who is beneficial to others. Hisarcıklıoğlu advised the members of the council to explain every work they do and inform the members.

Emphasizing unity and solidarity, the TOBB President asked the council members not to alienate each other and to love each other regardless of their political views, sect, ethnicity or religion.
