The Best Cyprus Community

More refugees will return if ...

How can we solve it? (keep it civilized)

Actually you are very wrong about this brother. I don't know if you have ever been to the RoC and Greece but they are two different countries. Obviously there is widespread hellenism in the RoC but other than that Greeks and GCs are quite different people (for one thing they are richer than us!)

Our current PM was willing to sacrifice Cyprus' future to maintain his ties with Turkey.

Cyprus will remain independent whether the country is reunited or not. I'm not sure how the north would work though.

EIther way I think it would be great to see the two communities live together.

I don't care who is rich! :lol: It's not a criterion that ROC is a different country.

When i pass to ROC area i see flag of Greece everywhere like Turkey flags in north.And some Greece flags are not with ROC flag and they are single!This is the thing makes me angry.

There is no TC track in the streets.No Turkish signs or names!

no Turksih signs? Then what was the language that the signs I saw in the north? Chinese?

I am not sure why there are Greek flags next to RoC flags either anymore but if the country were reunited then those would go. The cyprus flag should stay (And lets call it that if people feel better, since its suppsoed to represent both communities)

:lol: Yes my english is not that good. :lol:
I wanted to mean "iz". Anything that reminds Tcs.

For example in road signs there is only English and Greek.Shouldn't there turkish also?

I'm not talking about North.ROC is not controlling north.So i'm talking about today's ROC,so south.

o.k thanks for clearing that up peace.

Peace makes a VERY valid point, should there not be a turkish translation to go with the greek and english.

Not three languages.ROC's language is Turkish and Greek and i suppose this is written on ROC constitution.

But its good to use English also for tourists.

Anyway i'm leaving the forum for now.I have to do some shopping.Umm weather is nice also. :wink:
