To accept other nations’ domination; Mandate government

During our independency war, there were some (even many) people who were ready to accept another countries’ government such as UK and USA. They thought that they had never been able to govern themselves, so they needed a developed country to be governed. It was easy for them. They were ready to be the slave of any country, but one man didn’t accept it.

This man knew historical background of Turkish nation. He was Mustafa Kemal. Ancestors of Turkish nation had never lived as slave of any nation. They had only one slogan; Freedom or Death. Living under the mandate government eradicates the national culture and creates violence against local people. Once upon a time Atilla, the king of Huns, stated that accepting another people as referee could make your destiny surrendering to the enemy. Mustafa Kemal Atatürk is a leader of freedom. He rejects to be slave. His will is to continue living free forever for Turkish nation.

At present, we have many samples that proves this explanation. Especially in Middle East, we can see that the public are being separated by the mandate government. The peace has never come here until we understand that nobody will help us except ourselves. They have only one aim: to control the energy sources. As in the past, religion especially Islam is used for controlling the public. We had seen the same scenario in Anatolia, but we made it. Freedom can’t be lived under the mandate government of any country.

Always Atatürk..

The most modern necessary policy of a state; ECONOMY

Economy is the most necessary policy for the states in modern times. The states had different priorities in ancient and medieval ages. A strong army and the power of a king were some of them. But despite of some factors, trade has been very important for the development for centuries. International relationship had been enriched by trade lines.

Mustafa Kemal faced with a fact; Ottoman Empire couldn’t adopt the economic development that was the result of geographical expeditions. Western world became the industrial revolution true thanks to geographical expeditions. Then economic development was in Western world. The states in economic untidiness are always in crisis in modern world. That’s why, some unexpected results will be faced. As Atatürk was aware of this fact, he aimed at economy after the military triumph. He established national companies in order to produce what Turkish state needed. Then national banks were established due to support the domestic industry. Those moves brought Turkish Republic to the top of the world before WW2. 1 US $ was equal to 1 TL in that period and Turkish Republic didn’t face important difficulties in that period because of those moves. On the other hand, working hard and efficiency helped new Turkish State. His legacy compromised the economic targets of new Turkish state.

The nations that desire to rise up should have strong economic programs. Those programs shouldn’t serve personal benefits and have to contribute the economic outcomes.

Always Atatürk…

The quality of the administrators (politicians)

The leaders are very important because they show the way for living in a country. M.K. Atatürk stated that the true politicians would make a country rise up, otherwise the result wouldn’t be fine. Thanks to historical events, we can see that he is right. Unskilled administrators (politicians) will get a country down so the order will break down. Then the peace and international rules will be unsettled.

Atatürk had some historical studies on the various states of all times. So, he got some conclusions. That’s why he warned Turkish public about this subject. It is directly about the sustainability of the country and regime. A public should be very careful about the administrators. They should be analyzed very well. Corruption is one of the destructive situations for a country. Good administrators serve the public in a right way so good results will be approved. It is also very important for international peace.

Always Atatürk.

The most important power of a country; Well-educated public

The most important power of a country is a well-educated public. As we have stated for several times, education is the most important policy in order to be a civilized public. Mustafa Kemal Atatürk is a leader that has a will to rise up a well-educated public. He was aware of this fact. The absence of well- educated public creates very serious results for a country.

Mustafa Kemal Atatürk was aware of the fact that Anatolian Turkish Public had been ignored for years. They had been neglected for centuries. They were mostly farmers or low-leveled workers except the war times. They were called for duty in war times. That’s why many generations were lost in last century. The authority didn’t give them necessary education service or the sufficient economic development. Mustafa Kemal Atatürk wanted to change this order and desired to rise up this clean public. He desired them to be well-educated individuals. Teachers are the most important people in the public. They shape generations. So, they have a vital role to shape the future of the country. He acted as a real leader, and his testament is directing us to go on this way.

Always Atatürk….
