Important Announcement to the Public

Dear Public of Elazığ, my dear friends and fellow citizens;

    As a result of the examinations carried out at the hospital I went to for treatment due to the severe chest and heart pain I experienced throughout the election process, a virtual angiography revealed that 5 vessels were between 90 percent and 100 percent blocked.

    Despite our physicians' advice on the necessity of an urgent angiography and bypass, since only a short period of 1 month remained before the elections, we decided to postpone, in the belief that a treatment process starting in such an atmosphere would adversely affect the motivation of our team members.

    As a result, with the great favour of our members, the prayers of our friends and with honour, we completed our election process. After receiving the congratulations of our stakeholders and valued fellow citizens, especially the very valued members of our Chamber, we also visited TOBB last week and held talks with our President Mr. Rıfat Hisarcıklıoğlu.

    Taking advantage of a gap in our Ankara programme, which I had extended for the Elazığ Promotion Days event to be held in Ankara, and in order to use the time efficiently, I met with our physicians for treatment and underwent the necessary tests. As a result of the medical examinations and tests, our physicians made an urgent decision for Bypass, considering that postponing it again would cause serious problems.

    After the Bypass surgery to be performed on Monday, 12 December, and the completion of my subsequent 15-day treatment process, with the grace of God, the support of you, our valued members, and the prayers of our fellow citizens, we will continue serving our hometown from where we left off.

With my respects, İdris Alan

Elazığ CCI President
