May Allah make this  ‪#‎ Ramadan‬  the best Ramadan, and bless us with many more Ramadans to come, each one better than the one before!  Ramadan Mubarak to all those preparing to fast.

by Dr Mohammad Manzoor Alam Chairman, Institute of Objective Studies, New Delhi (India) After a couple of recent visits to Turkey, I have come to the firm conclusion that the country is reliving its grand Ottoman legacy under the leadership of Recep Tayyip Erdogan with its economic growth, conservative democracy, religious tolerance, national reconciliation and international peace, and solidarity with the oppressed. This, to me, is the gist of Erdogan vision. I would like to talk about it in simple terms, without recourse to too much statistics or extensive quotes. President Erdogan’s Justice and Development party has fostered a vibrant culture of entrepreneurship, business innovation, industriousness and economic growth. The Anatolyan heartland today pulsates with thousands of new businesses that are evocatively called “Anatolyan tigers”. The country could withstand the global economic devastation of 2008 without much damage. As the dominos of West Asia fell after th...
