"This is an important university. A university that will set an example for Turkey. Because the children who grow up here are not children who do not know what to do when they finish school. The children who grow up here will be able to find a job immediately after they finish school. Because they will produce. That's why this university is a university that needs to be watched carefully, I have been watching it carefully since it was founded. The Higher Education Council should also watch it carefully, the local administration should also watch it carefully. If we open such universities, if we bring universities to this position, Turkey will produce more, Turkey will create more jobs, Turkey will export more, Turkey will contribute to the happy lives of our people by growing national income and national product without being dependent on anyone. Therefore, it is very important that this park is named after Hasan. May his soul rest in peace, I wish condolences to his family."

May God have mercy on him."

Demirel concluded his words by saying, "I would like to express my thanks to our Ankara Metropolitan Municipality and Mr. Mayor, especially our university, who built this park."

"OSTİM is really the locomotive, the driving force of our district"

"Yenimahalle District Governor Selda Dural started her speech by saying, "Today, I would like to express my pleasure to be here with you at the opening of this beautiful park that will keep the cherished memory of the late Hasan Yalçıntaş alive." Mr. Hasan was a resident of our district and we know, hear and learn that he was a true lover of Ankara. Therefore, it is a source of pride for us to keep his name alive in such a park in our district. I wish him mercy from Allah and condolences and patience to his relatives."

Dural stated that OSTİM region is not only our district, not only our district, not only our Ankara, but in fact Turkey is an industrialization model that sets an example for the world and said, "It is an entrepreneurship model that should be taught and taught in schools, we are proud of OSTİM as Yenimahalle." "It is really the locomotive and driving force of our district.

At the point of combining theory and practice, we hope that it will be an example for Turkey and even the world, we have full faith. It is a separate pride for us to host such a university in our district."

Stating that OSTİM Technical University has entered the education and training life with very ambitious and beautiful departments especially in technical fields and sciences in terms of its field and subject, Dural said, "At this point, I find it very meaningful that the name of Mr. Hasan, a saintly person who has spent his life in this field, is given to a park in this university."

"Hasan Yalçıntaş's name is entrusted to us"

Mayor of Ankara Metropolitan Municipality Mansur Yavaş started his speech by saying, "First of all, the name of our brother Hasan suits this place very well. Both because he is a businessman from OSTİM, because he has close relations with OSTİM Technical University and ANFA, which contributes here, is a place where he worked very hard, so it is very, very fitting."

"We also gave his name to the Composite Facilities of our Municipality and hopefully we will give his name to one or two more places that will keep his memory alive. Because his name is now entrusted to us," Yavaş said, "He has made a lot of efforts, we really know him from many, many years ago, but during the time we worked together, especially the work he gave to the Çubuk Dam cannot be expressed with anything."

Mr. Mansur Yavaş said of Hasan Yalçıntaş: "His efforts are not to be forgotten and when we talked to him, he had many more projects for Ankara. This was the end, we are very sad. I wish his soul rest in peace and may his place be in heaven."
