Asfa Holding Chairman of the Board of Directors, philanthropist and businessman Asaf Atasoy, published a congratulatory message on the 102nd anniversary of the founding of our Republic.

Asfa Holding Chairman of the Board of Directors, Asaf Atasoy, included the following statements in his message;

We are experiencing the pride and joy of celebrating together, in national unity and solidarity, the 102nd anniversary of the proclamation of our Republic by the Grand National Assembly of Türkiye.

The Republic is the result of a great victory achieved by a nation following a national struggle undertaken with faith and determination to achieve independence, despite all kinds of impossibilities, with love for the country, freedom and independence.

Our beloved nation, which has defended its independence and future with an unprecedented heroic epic in history, has maintained its unity and solidarity today, as it did in the past, and has known how to unite and be united with tighter ties.

In the 102 years since the founding of our Republic on October 29, 1923, the Republic of Turkey has taken its place among the rising powerful countries of the world and made significant progress with its growing economy, breakthroughs in the fields of health, education, science and culture, and strong democracy.

The Republic of Türkiye will continue to advance with confident steps on the bright path that lies before it and will walk towards the future with hope.

With these feelings and thoughts, I commemorate with mercy our cherished martyrs who made these lands our homeland, especially Ghazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the founder of our Republic, and our veterans with gratitude and respect, and I congratulate the 102nd anniversary of the founding of our Republic.

Abdullah Yiğit-Istanbul
