Turkish people’s profile revealed in new survey

Details of the Ipsos KMG survey, titled ‘Guide to Understanding Turkey,' were published in daily Posta.

A recent survey about the lifestyle and attitudes of Turkish people has revealed intriguing results, with a large majority of people – 84 percent – saying that the best thing they do to pass the time is "watching TV." Almost half of respondents admitted that they never do exercise, even walking.

The survey, which was conducted by the Ipsos KMG Research and Consultancy Company with almost 16,000 people across Turkey and published in daily Posta, also revealed that 96 percent of Turks have never seen an opera or ballet in their lives.
