The main problem is the average wage in that part of Turkey is a few thousand dollars a year. In Syria of course is a fraction of that. You just aren't going to get Japanese/Chilean/Californian quality construction.

- dhikapow 4y agoIf labor is all that we have to worry then yes. But building materials prices are almost the same everywhere, so they still wouldn't be able to afford it
