Words of wisdom from our fearless leader:
"Turkey’s prime minister on Saturday proposed imposing limits on the number of people moving to Istanbul as well as restricting car ownership in the country’s most populous and congested city.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan, a former mayor of the city that counts more than 12 million residents, called for support from the media and non-governmental organizations for his proposal to limit cars and people in the nation’s commercial capital.
“We have to do this for Istanbul. If we love Istanbul, if we love Turkey, we have to do it,” Erdogan said in a speech at a Turkish Red Crescent conference addressing the city’s preparedness against earthquakes and other disasters."
"Erdogan said there were 2.5 million vehicles in Istanbul - more than the city’s poor road infrastructure can carry.
“This is too much. We have to reduce this to 2 million,” Erdogan said.
