All around Turkey a coordinated whole-of-nation approach has been attempted to the celebrations of the 30th of August the Victory Day

Last night Marmaris felt the aftershock of the earthquake out at sea just South of Marmaris, on the line between Marmaris and the island of Rhodes in Greece. This morning we woke up to another earthquake at around 7AM. Unfortunately earthquakes are part of life in this part of the Mediterranean and the Aegean. Yet this time the reaction of the community was somewhat different. Before many would go out and sleep in their gardens or cars. This time nobody seemed to be out, let alone sleeping out of their homes. Perhaps the latest events on a global scale have made us stronger. We have developed a high resistance to stress which is good in these difficult times. This morning the Mayor of Marmaris Mr. Mehmet OKTAY has announced an Earthquake Relief telephone number 0850 888 48 48 . Although there has been no damage in the area so far Click here for details >>

Marmaris Governor is shocked after instructing police to stop and issue fines to people without masks amid coronavirus times only to find his SON was one of them. He instructed police to treat his son as he would be anyone violating the “Wear a mask” regime. Being a small town the news spread in the community and served its purpose. Marmaris Gov issued executive order on June 04 prohibiting appearance without a mask in public spaces indoor and outdoor, to help stop the spread of Covid-19. The fine is 900 Turkish lira for breaking the rule. As of now there are no confirmed cases of Covid-19 in Marmaris. Our governor’s rigorous decisions and the police’s actions could well be the key as to how the safety  and well-being of people is protected in Marmaris.
