In his speech at the opening ceremony of Yıldız Service Building, Çankaya Mayor Alper Taşdelen, who stated that the 25 groundbreaking and opening programs that started on 7 September will continue until 20 December, also said that social assistance will continue to increase.

Çankaya Mayor Alper Taşdelen, who noted that they evaluated the 12-decare area in Yıldız, that is valuable its title deed belongs to the municipality for the use of the public, said “We have transformed this place into a 2 thousand square meter service building where we will provide our basic services without filling the place with buildings and without suffocating it with concrete, and the rest of it has been transformed into a green area and park” .

Mayor Taşdelen, who stated that there is also a Çankaya House, which he describes as the community center of the 21st century, which will serve women and the youth, and the entire public, inside the Yıldız Service Building, said ”Kemal Baytaş Library will be open to everyone 24 hours a day, which was donated to us by Kemal Baytaş, who has made very valuable contributions to Turkish tourism and culture and who is the very esteemed President of the Turkish Promotion Foundation. We have an oral and dental health polyclinic and municipal service units where our citizens in 6 neighborhoods will carry out municipal procedures without going down to our central building.”

FOOD CARD DISTRIBUTION STARTS IN THE NEW YEAR

Reminding that they continue to implement social municipalism and Black Winter Fund in addition to the openings, Mayor Taşdelen continued as follows: “We opened the doors of our municipality to our university students. Our university students come to our municipality every evening, become our guests and have their dinner. We have done a lot such as parks, buildings, cultural centers, swimming pools, disability centers. However, the emotions which I experienced during the dinner we had with university students on Wednesday evening were completely different. At the table where I was sitting at, there were our brothers from Ankara Medicine, Gazi Medicine and METU Machine Departments. The students are from Konya, Niğde, Kütahya. At that moment, I once again experienced the difference of human-oriented municipalism. Everyone should know that no one is alone in Çankaya. We continue our support of 600 TL to 2100 households with Çankaya Halk (People’s) Card, and we will increase this number day by day. We deliver our boots and coats to our children in our poor neighborhoods. We will also distribute food parcels in the form of cards during Ramadan. As of January, we will distribute our food cards to everyone who is in trouble in Çankaya. In the research we conducted among families using Çankaya Halk (People’s) Card, we found that it is mostly used for house rent. We will further enlarge the Winter Fund with the instruction of our General Chairman. We have done these works without using a kurush of credit, without borrowing a kurush, we have done all these services with our own resources for 7 years and will continue to do so.

Recalling Mustafa Kemal Atatürk's 10th Anniversary Speech, 'We have done a lot in a short time, but we will never see what we have done as enough. Further, we will always go further', Mayor Taşdelen said "We will continue to try to produce for our people as we do not see what we do as enough, Çankaya will continue to shine like a star.”

KEMAL KILIÇDAROĞLU: “ÇANKAYA IS A PRIVILEGED DISTRICT”

Speaking at the opening ceremony of Yıldız Service Building, CHP General Chairman Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu said, "Çankaya is a privileged district. It has a hardworking mayor and respectable people. It has a culture of peace within itself. It likes to travel in the depths of the republic and republican values. All Çankaya residents know how valuable it is to live in a place where Gazi Mustafa Kemal Atatürk lived. Our Mayor has built a very beautiful building here, on a 12-decare area, with a modest, adjacent layout, intertwined with nature. I convey my best wishes to all Çankaya residents.

At the opening of the Yıldız Service Building, the artist Serenad Bağcan and the Presidential Symphony Orchestra harpist Çağatay Akyol gave a musical concert to the attendees of the ceremony.
