Cyprus News – Mobile Phone Calls Possible Across the Divide
According to Kibris Postasi Daily News ( 27.05.14) the Chairman of the Cyprus Turkish Chamber of Commerce, Fikri Toros,
“Direct calls will be possible across the divide in Cyprus with mobile phones and the substructure work is expected to be completed in May…Before the last round of talks started we discussed about the issue with the Chairman of the Greek Cypriot Chamber of Commerce in Malta in 2013. In that period we couldn’t make any progress. However, we haven’t given up and we pushed for it.”
According to Toros most of the challenges were technical issues about where to install the base stations and the arrangement of tariffs. He confirmed that this project has been approved by both leaders.
Seeing as it is June on Sunday, and Toros said the work is expected to be completed by then, I am assuming that by the time most readers read this, these calls will be possible. But you know what they say about the word assume, makes an ‘ass’ of ‘u’ and ‘me’.
