The Turkish lira gained 11 percent against the dollar in the 6 months between early May 2010 and October 2010. Turkey's current account deficit has widened from a small surplus to a gap of 5% of GNP. But political leaders take pride in the lira's rise and are doing nothing to curb the rise. Large capital inflows into Turkey are chasing higher rates, and helping finance the current account deficit.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
