An interesting video put together in an attempt to explain how the Cyprus Problem came about. Obviously, the creator of the video has put together a story which paints a picture they want you to accept as truth but despite that the images show the history of the island.
If you are over 60 and do not have a North Cyprus Residency Permit then now you will have to buy one in three months time. According to the translation below you will have a year to get one. Many people, now over 60 and in theory free of the need to purchase a Residency Permit will remember the nightmare it used to be to get one. I wonder how much they will cost? According to the Voice of the Island news portal (24.07.19) Foreign Minister Kudret Ozersay has repeated decisions taken by the TRNC Council of Ministers:
Yes, it’s that time of the week again and another Saturday edition of Cyprus Today has hit the streets. There is no news about today’s Peace and Freedom Day celebrations today because that will not appear for a week.
In North Cyprus we have had problems with ignorance disrupting Turtle protection but not to the degree that was experienced at Polis Chrysochous beach. There were unbelievable scenes when the community leader and residents of Argakas attempted to prevent a team from the turtle protection programme from doing their work.
For those who follow the news, ‘North Cyprus is to Turkey as Hong Kong is to China’ might make some sense. In the independent territory of Hong Kong, millions have protested against the right of the Chinese government to extradite criminals from the independent territory to China. They argue that the word ‘independent’ means that criminals will be tried in Hong Kong under the prevailing law there and not under Chinese law. China disagreed and the demonstrations to have the Extradition Bill cancelled continue.

I’m hearing all this good news about people in North Cyprus being able to use their mobile phones to phone the south. Apparently, because of fears about the recognition of the ‘pseudo-state’, it took 3 years instead of the 3 days it should have taken.
A Turkish Cypriot bus driver alleged that Greek Cypriots threw rocks and water bottles at his vehicle at Larnaca International Airport while he had 25 tourists inside his bus who had just arrived at LCA from Hungary
Reports are coming in that at least 46 homeowners in Pano Polemidia, Limassol district, are being sued by a Turkish Cypriot landowner who filed lawsuits to claim his property and further seek reparations. The homes were reportedly built on land owned by the Turkish Cypriot because the South Cyprus government reportedly signed the deeds over to Greek Cypriots.
Ten years ago a series of emails were published by NCFP detailing the plight of North Cyprus home buyers on a development in Incesu. Two years later, in 2011, another article was published after the owner of the land, Hasan Sungur, suggested a solution to the problem which was rejected as being too risky. Again two years later, in 2013, the situation was reviewed.
