Financial Supports to the Service Sector Should Be Increased.
Evaluating the process with the increasing number of cases in our city, YTSO Board Chairman Tahsin BECAN said that the controlled normalization process has been a very important step for our businesses that have suffered for months. However, in line with the measures taken again with the increasing number of cases, our businesses will face difficulties as of the month of Ramadan next week.
If our citizens act in compliance with the rules together with our businesses, normalization will continue. All Yalova faces a great risk if the rules are not followed. As citizens, we also need to pay attention to the measures taken by our companies.
Businesses in Yalova continue to serve by taking all the precautions to carry out their own activities and to protect the health of the community, by taking all the precautions.
In this direction, before the Ramadan feast, weekend restrictions can be lifted and local trade can be revived by people shopping. In addition, at least during the month of Ramadan, allowing cafes and restaurants to be open with 50 percent capacity and if they meet the necessary conditions for another hour or two after iftar will relieve our businesses.
The cafe, restaurant and service sector most affected by the pandemic process should not suffer any further losses. In order for this sector to survive, financial support should be provided for at least 1 year without repayment, taxes such as real estate, advertisement advertising, garbage, cleaning should not be collected for 1 year, SGK and Tax payments should be postponed until the process is over, The day conditions should change, electricity, water, natural gas payments should be postponed, the commission rates of sites such as food basket, bring, and institutions such as multinet and sodexo should be reduced.
In Yalova, there is a great responsibility for our citizens from all walks of life, from business owners, customers, employees, suppliers, for the end of the pandemic process to decrease the number of cases and to make it permanent. In particular, our citizens who do not have to work should not go around too much, stay in their homes, and pay attention to mask, distance and cleaning rules when they need to go out, first for their own health and then for public health. Let's obey all precautions for a healthier and safer Yalova in the coming summer months.
