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

I wholeheartedly greet all our citizens with disabilities on the occasion of December 3rd, the International Day of Persons with Disabilities, which was declared by the United Nations to draw attention to the problems faced by people with disabilities, to raise social awareness and to create a more inclusive living environment.

Understanding the struggles faced by our brothers and sisters with disabilities, seeking solutions to the challenges they face, and celebrating their achievements are of such profound importance that they cannot be limited to a single day. Furthermore, December 3rd has served as a reminder for all of us for years, providing a significant opportunity to assess our progress, recognize our shortcomings, and redefine our goals for a more inclusive future.

The approach that prioritizes the full and equal participation of individuals with disabilities, who are a part of society, in all aspects of life is a reflection of the value our deep-rooted civilization places on people. Our ancestors prioritized improving the quality of life of individuals with disabilities by supporting them, without isolating them from society; examples of this approach can be clearly seen in historical documents. We are the heirs of a culture that understands that true disability lies not in physical disabilities, but in hearts and minds.

It’s important to remember that every person can be a potential candidate for disability. Unfortunately, in many parts of the world today, we see individuals with disabilities being marginalized, ignored, and overlooked. Despite this, our country has reached an exemplary level in ensuring that our citizens with disabilities achieve their social, economic, and educational rights and can look to the future with confidence.

We view the services provided to ensure the inclusion of individuals with disabilities in all aspects of social life not as a favor, but as the restoration of long-overdue rights. All institutions and organizations in our province, especially our Governor’s Office, are working diligently to facilitate access to rights, services, and opportunities for our citizens with disabilities. Together, we are working to build a social environment where barriers are removed and where they can live an equal and peaceful life.

We are the heirs of a civilization that considers humans the most precious of creation and sees all beings as entrusted to us by God. We are the children of a culture that has grown up with the principle of “loving creation for the sake of the Creator,” and that considers serving humanity the greatest responsibility. Guided by the Prophet’s (peace be upon him) good news: “The best of people are those who benefit others,” striving to always support our brothers and sisters with disabilities is the most fundamental of our duties.

I hope this meaningful day will strengthen public awareness of the challenges faced by individuals with disabilities. I extend my warmest regards to all citizens with disabilities and their families, wishing them a life filled with health, peace, and well-being.

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

On the occasion of Teachers’ Day, November 24th, which is the anniversary of Head Teacher Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk’s acceptance of the “Head Teacher of the National Schools”, I congratulate all our teachers with love and sincerity.

Teaching, one of the most honorable professions in the world, is a valuable and sacred profession that requires effort, devotion, patience and tolerance, and whose value cannot be measured by any financial reward.

Teachers are the heart and soul of a society. Raising virtuous and moral generations that embrace society is possible through the extraordinary efforts and success of our teachers. Undoubtedly, true success lies in “good morals.” Beyond raising successful individuals, and even more importantly, shaping generations armed with our values, reflecting one another, and keeping their consciences watchful over themselves will only be possible through the hands of our teachers. Indeed, Head Teacher Atatürk’s description of teaching as an “army of wisdom” expresses this same perspective.

Head Teacher Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk emphasized the importance of the teaching profession, which serves as a bridge between the past and the future, by saying, “Society’s greatest enemy is ignorance, and the enemy of ignorance is the teacher. The teacher is the teacher of the past and the founder of the future. The future belongs to the youth. And the youth are the work of the teachers.”

With these feelings and thoughts, I wholeheartedly salute all our teachers who work tirelessly, day and night, in every corner of our country, under all circumstances and conditions, sparing no sacrifice to instill in our children, the light of their eyes, knowledge and wisdom, truth and beauty, universal values, morality and spirituality, patriotism and love for the nation.

I remember with mercy and gratitude our teachers who were martyred in the line of duty, especially Head Teacher Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, the founder of our Republic, and our esteemed teachers who have passed away. I wish a blessed, healthy, happy, and long life to our teachers who have fulfilled their duties, raised generations that have been beneficial to their country and nation, and are now retiring.

ASFA HOLDING Chairman of the Board of Directors, Philanthropist and Businessman Asaf ATASOY, published a message on the occasion of “December 10 World Human Rights Day”.

ASFA HOLDING Chairman of the Board of Directors Asaf ATASOY included the following statements in his message;

The adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights by the United Nations on 10 December 1948 is an important first step towards the international protection of human rights, and therefore, 10 December is celebrated as “Human Rights Day” in all countries of the world.

When the “Universal Declaration of Human Rights”, defined as the constitution of human rights by the United Nations General Assembly, was declared on December 10, 1948, international mechanisms were established and put into operation to prevent human rights violations all over the world. In this context, a series of legal regulations were made in our country and these rights were also protected by the Constitution and Laws. The protection of human rights in our country and their further advancement are among the primary goals of all segments of our society. Our efforts to always reach the better and more beautiful will continue without ever considering the point we have reached in the field of human rights, which is accepted as a measure of development, as sufficient.

In this context, as a state and a nation, we are determined and resolute to embrace human rights and freedoms, see our differences as richness in the axis of love, respect and tolerance, and carry these values ​​into the future in a way that will make our country much stronger.

With these feelings and thoughts; I celebrate December 10th World Human Rights Day, with the wish for a world where there are no human rights violations and love and brotherhood prevail, and I hope it will be a blessing for all humanity.
