The international charity foundation Kimse Yok Mu carried out a project for the Panamanian orphan’s benefit. The foundation built an additional facility for an orphanage in a far-flung corner of the country. The new facility came as a fresh air to the orphans living in squeezed rooms due to lack of space and beds.
Panamanian Ministry of Social Policies and Kimse Yok Mu officials jointly cut the ribbon of the building that cost approximately 30 thousand dollars.
The opening witnessed sentimental moments as an orphanage official expressed his thanks to the sponsors who cherish helping out the needy even in out-of the-way places.
The orphanage offers shelter to children suffering domestic abuse as well as abandoned ones. It is currently home to 54 children, well over its 30-bed capacity.
The new building did away the kitchen problem and eased the overloaded capacity with the bedding supplies provided.
The orphanage officials were grateful to the Turkish people for their donations. They also demanded a playground and garden wall for the facility.

Erdoğan’s allegations proven to be incorrect, contradictory over time
Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has over time turned out to be wrong or self-contradictory in his allegations over a number of issues in the past few years, which has cast doubts on his credibility as well as the credibility of his Justice and Development Party (AK Party) government in the eyes of the people.
German view of Hizmet Movement (1)
I remember the late, right-minded orientalist Annemarie Schimmel’s words saying, “The most attacked and least understood religion in the West is Islam.” Today, we come across a similar statement in a recently published scholarly report too. I’m referring to the report titled, “Überdehnt sich die Bewegung von Fethullah Gülen?” by Stiftung für Wissenschaftund Politik (SWP), which put the Hizmet Movement under a scholarly microscope.

Scholarly views in the aftermath of the coup attempt: A responsible government would rather support the Hizmet Movement
When the Hizmet Movement or Hocaefendi are mentioned specifically by governmentally influenced press in Turkey, it harms Turkey. Yes, it harms Hocaefendi, but not nearly as much as it harms Turkey. Turkey is hurting itself today when it limits political discussion, when it maligns its political adversaries, when it uses political tools and economic tools to harm social services and educational institutions in Turkey.
Turkey, ‘The Devil’s Advocate’ and ‘Titanic’
Questions to challenge the primary and unjustified premise: What judicial (or other) process determined that these corruption investigations were a coup attempt against the government? What proof or evidence do you have to support this most serious claim? What disciplinary process did you undertake to determine that the people that were purged were members and culprits of this ‘coup’? In the absence of evidence and disciplinary process how did you determine these people’s association with Hizmet? When is government corruption not a judicial coup? How can you have the right to unilaterally determine the intent and purpose of these ongoing judicial investigations when your government is implicated in them? If your government can purge over 7,000 police officers (and thereby affect and prevent these investigations) without evidence, due process or disciplinary procedure, do you not set a precedent for every future potentially corrupt government to follow?
