KIRIKKALE
CHAMBER OF COMMERCE AND INDUSTRY

Our Chairman of the Board of Directors Ahmet Varlı met with members of the press about the earthquake. He made suggestions about building need areas and container cities in parks for a disaster situation that may occur in Kirikkale.

Varlı stated that we live in an earthquake zone as a country geography and therefore we have to learn to live with earthquakes. Varlı stated that we could not record much distance after the earthquakes, and after the year 2000, there were stronger structures with the change of regulations, but he stated that his expectations were even higher.

Stressing that public and private buildings should be made earthquake resistant, varlı stated that he thinks that buildings built after the year 2000 are relatively better and he thinks that they should be even better. He stressed that it is not clear when the earthquake will happen, so we should always take our precautions.
