| There appears to be a certain type of insanity built in to the TRNC system. If this is deliberate then we need to ask the question why? If it is inadvertent then we need to ask why the TRNC has done little if anything to resolve the same?
At this point I do not know the answer(s).
I believe by asking the right questions - it is possible to fathom where the underlying constraints lie and why the TRNC appears on the face of it to be such a challenge to ex-pats!
I believe there is an opportunity here for those who have already invested and for those considering the same to work together and promote / protect the interest of those who are non-Turkish Cypriots. Chasing a different legal title will make difference when it comes to the issues of GC ownership.
The right appraoch is one which deals with the ambiguities and uncertainties head-on with those in government. If there is no success in that approach then the decision to buy is simple - don't! |

| I think a lot will change for the better under the new government and it will be worth waiting to see what will happen once they have had a chance to get to grips with things. I doubt it will ever be perfect and I doubt we will ever get full equality until TRNC, either after re-unification or in its own right, comes properly under the jurisdiction of the EU.
The new government was at pains to talk to ex-pats prior to the election even though we had no vote and from the report in Cyprus Today this weekend they seem keen to maintain a dialogue. I have several friends in the UBP and they are very proud of their party's approach to relations with ex-pats. |

HBPG and BRS are already entering into dialogue with the new government so if you would like to get involved then supporting either one or both groups would be beneficial.

And do you think this government will do any more for expats than all the previous ones? |

| ilovekibris - the answer to your question is 'NO'. There speaks the voice of experience.
Over to you, rose-tinted spectacles. |

Are you a positive person or a negative person?
Negative people are not part of my world. |

| Stewy - I am so positive, I am currently (pun intended) running the car battery and my "rose" coloured glasses are glowing in the dark. |
