Tradesmen providing service at the İnönü Street Teachers’ House Container Bazaar stated that the lack of signboards and lighting also poses a problem. They stated that this situation makes their work even more difficult.
“Let them come and see under what conditions we make money”
İmmihan Bakan, one of the tradesmen who worked in containers after the earthquake, while expressing the difficulties they experienced and their demands, said, “Once upon a time, this mayor or a member of parliament would come and talk to us. Why are they running away? I don’t understand that. We never met Sami Er, “I really love him as a human being, I know, I researched him.” He is a person I love, but I really wanted him to appear to us after the election. “I don’t think anyone looks decent after being elected, but let him come into the public eye and see what difficulties we are going through,” he said.
