- Turkey was hit by a major earthquake a year ago, hundreds of thousands were made homeless. The reconstruction process is sluggish.
Ruined cities - and disappointed hopes. A year after devastating earthquakes in southeastern Turkey, hundreds of thousands of people in the region are still holding out in temporary shelters. President Erdoğan had promised rapid reconstruction, but this is still a long time coming.
Engin Aşkar: "We are hoping to resurrect this place, but sometimes I think we're just fooling ourselves."
Many earthquake survivors are haunted by trauma and fears, especially children. They long for a little comfort and normality - as they struggle to rebuild their lives.

I am very sorry for you Turkey. Hope you can rebuild your cities. Best wishes from Sweden
As a Turk thank you bro.
❤
Sending lots of love to all the courageous people of turkey ❤
They are all smiling...yet you see the sorrow on their faces. All they have is hope..
As a Turk, I would like to thank all of you for your good wishes. But I must point out that these are not God's fault, but the fault of the government and President Erdogan.
Trust me, i went to the region on the 2nd day of the earthquake and I witnessed the whole situation with my own eyes.
sorry for my English
Saçmalamışsın? Depremin büyüklüğünü hesaba bile katmıyorsun.
Not only that, Erdogan was more worried about suppressing the media and the raging people. He was more worried about anything that could tarnish his reputation and took extensive time revolving around himself...
@@azizsipahi8332 bizim ulastigimiz bolgelere devletin ulasamamasi depremin buyukluguyle degil bizi yonetenlerle alakali ama muhtemelen anlamayacaksiniz.
As victim of Earthquake 2005 Pakistan, I can relate to turks. Stay strong 💪 life is beautiful.
And turkey president barely did anything and people still voted for him.
It wasn’t Turkey’s president who allowed the construction of these old, weak buildings during the 80’s etc. It also wasn’t the Turkish government who made black propaganda against the urban renewal projects which would have helped prevent these disasters from happening. Do your research better first. Its embarrassing.
Go figure? Don’t blame the past decisions, blame weak follow-up regulations and assessments .
@theottomanempirewillriseag7265 do you think it was corruption & weak cement or something like that was a factor too like in many other countries where they buy cheap cement which isn't good quality?
@@theottomanempirewillriseag7265
You can't escape reality by twisting it. I don't know if you are Turkish but I know that the ruling party is responsible for the disaster. Not a single person felt guilty or responsible for the destruction and no one resigned from their position. This is a moral bankruptcy. No person from the government has been held accountable. Greed for money killed our people, not the earthquake.
The government built so many buildings and they are proud of them but the opposition rejected or made black propaganda against the renewal of the old buildings? Don't make me laugh. Even so, they had the power and authority to make it happen. The opposition stood against so many projects but the government realized them anyway. So, the problem was not and could not have been the opposition.
So many experts warned the local administrations but they didn't care. All they cared about was the profit their relatives or friends gained from the projects. And you know, not all the destroyed buildings are old buildings. There are hundreds of newly built apartments that collapsed during the earthquake.
What's embarrassing is that despite all the things that happened, you and the people like you still try hard to protect the government and justify what they did and what they do.
@@theottomanempirewillriseag7265your un and pfp are embarrassing and they may have meant basically anything a government can do to recover from a disaster but sure, let's time travel back to the 80s and pretend he couldn't have done more.
It's heartbreaking to see this. I'm Syrian and I can relate to what they have gone through and are still going through. To get displaced, to get traumatized, to worry about the future on a daily basis, ... I understand all of that. But Turkish people are strong and I tend to believe that everything will get better very soon inshallah. May Allah make it easy for all Muslimes around the world wherever they are.
Please give subtitle
Another wonderful journal coverage documentary about last year earthquake in turkey 🇹🇷 and citizens struggling for returning theirs past shelters and government boldness promised. Thank you 🙏 ( DW) documentary channel for sharing this truthful disclosure documentary about that matter in turkey 🇹🇷
Thanks for watching and for the feedback!
@@DWDocumentary4:40 At least thousands can live in containment blocks and temporary homes. Officials in Hawaii should have likewise quickly set up similar shelters for Lahaina residents, so everyone can begin rebuilding their lives, homes, and the economy, instead of just expending their energies on damage control, passing on the buck . . . and returning to business as usual.
@@user-r8or-pko3dfg~60,000 people died in Turkey with over 100,000 wounded; kinda insane to compare the two.
Would love to have English subtitles.
Earthquakes happen not only in Turkey. So long as the country is located on the seismological faulty line, it cannot be spared. They need to be prepared with evacuation plan and essentials for the future earthquakes.
Yeah, but you need an administration that gives a hoot about it! Not radical-islamist Erdogan!
@@purpleldv966 all governments are like this. Its power n greed not religion
in east asia there are similar seismic activities if not more except in turkey there is at least a 10x casuality rate
Almighty bless every one.
The father is a good man
I wish I could adopt one of these little orphans. Hope they are being loved in new families. 🙏🏼
I like how Turkey has projected how resilience they are and the aftermath of the floods they still built the temporary houses for civilians. I if I had one of those houses for me it would be a castle living in shacks here in Tembisa
a little early in the century to make that designation
How could the government allow such bad building conditions to happen? My heart goes out to the people who passed away and who struggle.
Why did you remove the video about Ecuador?
The video is still there but it got banned in Ecuador.
Turkey has managed the earthquake much better than Iran regime. In Iran the victims don't even get a temporary shelter and nobody makes report about them. But the people themselves help the victims voluntarily. Which is sometimes very impressive and heart touching. I wish these people get their real home soon back. Amin.
Who would wanna return knowingly, It's a risk of being hit again with earthquake if you have kids? God help them!
So sad 😢😭😢 and sorry 😔😢😔 my condolences from Pakistan 🙂🇵🇰🇹🇷🤩😍. May Allah SWT bless Turkey and its beautiful people from Pakistan 🙂🇵🇰🇹🇷🤩😍🤩. Best regards from Pakistan 🙂🇵🇰🇹🇷🤩😍.
The government of Turkiye has done a great job to provide these amenities to affected people. Look at its neighbor country Iran, a few months before this event there was a smaller earthquack in northwestern Iran and still the government has not rebuild those houses, and people are living in tents for several months!
Compare this earthquake, where 53k died, with Taiwan’s recent quake, where 9 people died. Shoddy construction indeed.
Brilliant documentary, my fear is that the pressure to rehouse the people quickly and the economic hardships will make shoddy building practises too tempting to avoid, and hence a repeat is likely.
Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts!
Yes
It's is so weird to see how some act. While because of their action God has send them a warning but some still stay on their old ways.
Ojalá puedas rehacerte y teber la misma Fuerza ¡¡ Renacer como el ave fénix Sea
What about syria?
God bless you 😊😢
We all live in the confines of his wonderous world and may you all find good and kind paths to achieve his grace and mercy. The olive tree orchard can be ressurrected as well you would think.
Inflation and inflation
We have to get ready n not waiting for the Govt
Commenting "What about Gaza????" before anyone else does.
😢
Ojalá fueran esn español ..!!!!!!
No mention of any international aid groups. What was the response from outside Turkey?
This is a 12-minute video, not a comprehensive two hour documentary. 😐
You could have just put that into google and learned: big, lots of help. Do that.
So many countries rushed to help which was amazing but due to the bureaucracy, lack of leadership, no guidance, and no clear direction, assigning specific areas and tasks to the international rescue teams was a huge chaos. The military who had the bandwidth to help was kept away from helping which was a big mistake. The weather didn’t help either. False, baseless, unrealistic promises were made immediately after the earthquakes since the election was coming up.
It is very disheartening to see so many are still living in the tents. I agree with the comments that it will indeed take at least 10 years to rebuild. And that's probably an optimistic, wishful thinking.
Anybody is in here turkey's resident? Please reply 😊..
yeah i am here
@@Jackson-qd4pnhello, hows about the new buildings which are raised by government, are they earthquake proof ? I wish this provide normal life to these affected people back again. Thanks
@@s_dharni2483 Well, it has been a while since you asked this question, but I will respond. I live in Adana. Compared to other towns in the region, Adana was far less affected, yet the majority of the buildings in the region where I live became uninhabitable and will be demolished. Survivors are still living in government-built container villages, waiting their turn to move into government-built buildings. The beginning of the video features "Toki" buildings. They are extremely durable and properly constructed, but the government struggles to build them quickly.
Only fans are welcome when Your KING is alive
Allah knows best!
President doing everything for you and others... Say just 'şükür'... He will do what promised, as he did before and nowadays... Only you should to waiting...
Fate is an amazing thing, good and bad. They have no choice but to be happy they're alive and hope and wait and work for the future and try to be strong.
❤🩹
🇦🇿💔🇹🇷

Dont lie about muslim world
There is no Allah.
Please respect other beliefs
Turkey will receive further judgment according to the just ruling of the Most High God.
That’s not how this works..
@@Lizablue0608 yes it is how it works
And what is this JUST ruling you speak of?
Do you think WE are exempt from God's judgement and they AREN'T?
You are right. They are not good people.
@@reb2322He does, but he is very dim.
I am politically at opposition to Erdogan. But, there are unfortunate facts here. 390.000 apartments need to be built. Frankly speaking, there is no such a huge project in the world that needs to be completed in such few years. It is almost an impossible task. No one in the world can manage to do that within such a short period but the Turks.
