Turkey has seen the fastest
sustained economic growth of any country within the OECD
during the past ten years.
"For example, labour productivity increased
by 42.5% in the last four-and-a-half years, bringing sustained
profitability gains in core business operations and an extraordinary
boom — more than 120% in real terms — in business investment spending."
