The importance of sharing
Remarking that he sees such meetings as an occasion to share, Konukoglu described sharing knowledge as charity of knowledge.

“Textile never loses its importance”
Answering questions of participants, Konukoglu pointed out that Turkey’s textile industry will never end, “Dead and alive use textile. Newborn and died wrapped up. Textiles are more meaningful for us since we are a manufacturer of cotton. When considered historical process of the textile, we see its advantage for us in the industry. As you all know, once upon a time, when think about the textile, England would come to mind the in this sector. Then France took the flag. When they lose their colonies, they were gone in the textile industry. Then, Italy and then Turkey taking place in the sector successfully. They never leave the flag to anyone since they are cotton producer. China had a fear of everyone into the 2000s. I always tell, if everyone from China wears one more clothes, China becomes an importer and it occurs. We export textile products to China. One day, textiles of each country will be enough for itself. Turkey has been a textile brand and will be even better. “ For one question, he criticized efficient production failed due to the division of agricultural land by inheritance and use of agricultural machinery in the industry is not enough. He wanted to make arrangement for not division of agricultural land.

My late father said, “Honesty is the trick.” Recalling that the righteous always win, Konukoglu completed his speech saying, “if he wants to earn a lot, he has to be honest, there is no need to attempt another method other than honesty. Ways to be happy are modeling more successful ones, being thankful by seeing poor people, giving zakat, sharing community by donating. Never say I’m late. It would not be late to start a business. My father said, “The earliest day to start is when you start.”
