A post by Pervin Ersoy, wife of Minister of Culture and Tourism Mehmet Nuri Ersoy, has sparked further backlash. Pervin Ersoy defended the practice of charging a fee every half hour in cafes.
Pervin Ersoy, who has previously been the focus of criticism due to her social media posts, shared a claim from a page stating, "A taximeter-style application has been launched in cafes. Customers who do not place a new order after their first order will be charged an extra 50 TL per person every half hour," with the note, "If this news is true, it is a very accurate decision. It will be good for the disrespectful people who occupy tables all day and do not make room for incoming people."
