I wouldnot know, working in TR even tough for its own citisen but it still depends on your branch, an invitation etc. ur business. speaking of truth difficult, but comfortable so I do, needs to try...
2 :
There are certainly tremendous differences between applying for a government job and applying for a private sector position.I believe international diplomas are recognized by the private sector companies in Turkey and I think a master's degree from a reputable university can be very valuable as you climb the corporate ladder.Good luck
3 :
If you will not be working in government, yes, you can work in Turkey in a company. You have a UK diploma and companies will make you work. By the way, this is just a result of idiocy, not recognizing a europe university.
4 :
give it a try,youd get a job quickly but not the one you like at first. d you want to work as an entertainer? or a waiter? both sounds good

Wowww those are the last places I would want to visit lol

Russia is intriguing, and if it is St. Petersburg or Moscow you should definitely try to go there! Turkey is lovely because of the charming climate and you are only 2 or 3 hours away max from beautiful tourist resorts and beaches. I agree: Turkey or Russia!
4 :
Russia. The others are technically third world countries. BTW Turkey is not just Istanbul, people live in slums outside of the city. Furthermore, journalists such as Hrant Dink, are killed if they right about controversial issues. If you go to India, there is a risk in drinking tap water, as it could give you diarrhea.

* south korea is the best..

Protocol for a USA citizen to get passport (eventually for Turkey)?
Protocol for a USA citizen to get passport (eventually for Turkey)?
Hello Yahoo community, I am planning on going to Turkey in the future. As a student on my University I have been chosen to demonstrate a Mathematics/CS project to a conference there. However, this would be the first time I have left the United States. So I was curious if anyone could shed some light on the subject. -Ross

When you get a passport, you can use it to travel to any country. See site below for all passport application info and to print out the form.
2 :
No advance Visa needed!!! They will apply a visa stamp on your American passport upon entrance to the country which carries a 50 US dollars app fee... You'll have a phenomenal time there ;) Good Luck!
3 :
Young Turk is right. That's what I did last year upon entry and it's rather an easy process.
4 :
You'll need to gather up some important pieces of information: your SSN and Driver's license or other State/Federally issued form of ID. You'll need to fill out an application and have it notarized by a notary public (I got mine done at the Town Hall where I live). Then, mail it to the address given on the application form, along with the fee (around $100 US). You should get the passport as early as possible, as it can take up to 3 months to be received/processed/mailed. If you're not over 18, the passport will only be valid for 5 years. Otherwise, it's valid for 10. When you make travel plans for turkey, the airline's website might ask for the passport information (number, country of origin) while you're booking your tickets.

what is so wrong with allowing students to wear head scarf in Turkey?

4 :
I dont know. I read a news article on that topic twice and was still confused about who was on what side regarding what. I do think though that many, many people, Christian and Muslim, see Turkey as the 'frontline' of a Muslim migration to Europe. It could be related to that.
5 :
It should be freedom for every woman. without it she has no recognized status. just because of her headscarf they shoulnt be classified as minors, idiots and criminals
6 :
It is really an example of freedom, because everybody has the right to study, but I think that turkey is strongly laic, so, there is a little fear of islamization, I think. The government doesn't help, because, in my opinion, it tends to islamism. Personally I think that a girl with headscarf has the same right to study than a girl without it, but these covered girls often rather not to study and wearing their headscarves than to study and not wear them. Its also sad. I think is more important to study, altough you have to change your clothes in the classroom. It's complicated, there are a lot of points of view, and a lot of them are perfectly fair.
7 :
I have two daughters and they do not wear the head scarf, if however they chose to and they wished to attend University then I would fight for their right to do so. Education is all important it should not be dispensed to certain sections of any community and not to others. However, the issue you speak about here is a symbol of Political Islam. I am totally against anybody using their religion to hide behind i.e. pursuing their hidden agendas via religion whatever that religion maybe. Politics and Religion should always be separated like the separation of powers in any liberal democracy. The wearing of head scarves in Government held positions I am against, if you choose to work for an employer any employer you should agree to their terms. If you do not like their terms then don't take the position. The Republic of Turkey is secular whether we like it or not, (and believe me when I say I do like it that way as per my comments above keeping religion and politics separate), so those people who wish to wear head scarves should choose a more appropriate position for themselves. If they wish to live in a nation ruled by Islamic Law then they can always move to Iran, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan etc etc True democracy involves the majority of people consenting on an issue not just over 40%.

IT IS NOT HEAD SCARF,IT IS TURBAN please understand that part. It is political symbol. After that freedom,you dont know what they are going to want. They are not talking about men's dress code, they are talking about my ( women) dress code. Your freedom is not in danger, mine is.
10 :
Then you don't know the pressure to modern girls in the university. You don't know the polarisation. You don't know the secret meanings under a headscarf. Don't speak until you learn these. yes_no: Then answer my question. Are America and Turkey the same?
11 :
Forcing someone to take off their headscarf is comparable to forcing someone to put on a headscarf and it a violation of basic human rights. It is also against human dignity.
12 :
Before AKP, I could wear a decent sleeveless shirt in the street. Last summer I wore one and I was subjected to the grunts of a bearded sub-human. The sad part is, he had a boy with him. I can imagine how that father is poisoning the mind of that child right now, teaching him how women like me are sl*ts. Headscarf issue, isn't it? How innocent it sounds when you say it like this!
13 :
What is wrong is enforcing the others to get dress like you like. I am not talking about you of course, I am talking about the state.
14 :
I'm not a Muslim but I find headscarf totally acceptable as the nuns are acceptable in their sterile outfit. It's a personal choice that has nothing to do with anybody else and we have to respect that.
15 :
There is nothing wrong in wearing the scarf, Turban, Yemeni carsaf, or any other clothing , or headcovering,, people should wear what ever they choose , providing it is worn with in the dress code parameters that is not too embarrassing as in reviling to much body flesh, over dressing or over covering should be left up to each individual to choose their clothing Freedom of choice is the way forward , It is Nonsense to restrict people wearing head covering of any sort,, it dose not address any issues that some may think ,,
16 :
Well, I've answered a similar question before, but apparently your question must have been deleted, so I'll say this again: Turkey is run by a secularist government. The schools are run by the government. The headscarf is part of the Muslim religion. Therefore, wearing a headscarf in school is against the government's secular idea. It doesn't really sound too fair, but that's just the way laws and ethics work. It's all about rules and not about fairness. In my opinion, it shouldn't matter whether a girl can wear her headscarf. If you think about it, they're the same person without it. The headscarf is only a piece of cloth and I think they can survive without it. Plus, if the girl felt strongly about this issue, then she can simply be home-schooled.

What? they talk about putting a pressure on those that don`t wear head scarves. That means, like wise, all those that have been wearing mini skirts and tank tops have been putting a latent pressure on the others to wear them too and that has been going on for decades. Is this logical?
20 :
Why as a man are you so interested in this issue anyway ? Let the women to fight for their rights if they are so willing to pack themselves for the rest of their lives... Oh but wait a second...Women are not equal to men in islam right...
