Tell them Nikitas . . . Cyprus does not need tourism or any -ism.

Cypriots can make their own way in the world. ... they are not slaves to any means to an end!

Cypriots survived long before any of these modern trappings and they are innovative enough to survive against all odds no matter the hardships!

Phoenix,

There is something creepy about depending on tourism for a living. It changes the hosts and it dehumanises the visitors. And there are the secondary ills, like this reckless "development" of every square inch of land which change the countryside. It is fortunate that Cypriots are focusing on other ways to increase their wealth other than tourism.

Yes it's not too different to (dare I say it) prostitution!

Money for fun!

We are more worthy than that!

Yes I do . But you ain't got any balls mate , you wanked them off remember malaka !!

Okay this is a bet malaka !!!

This story about us Cypriots being dependent on the British and owe everything to tthe British. Thankfuylly there are people born during the British rule and they are right here in this forum.

I recall villages without roads. without electric power, with one or two public water taps, and one telephone per village if we were lucky. As for the roads it is enough to recall one phrase that says it all:

"pese pangetto pezevengi!" said to other drivers.

Cyprus did not see real wealth and a rise in it standard of living till the 60s. So cut out this British money crap. It is not really about Cyprus, it is an excuse for Greece being kept in the pits by the politicians you guys elect, they have a thing or two to teach others about being ineffectual and incompetent.

Either you like it either you don’t Cyprus economy was completely depended by the British and still are but maybe in lower level.

First of all there isn’t legal ground to do any of this in Europe. The British can just destroy your tourism and take their money to the north and this can’t be a threat to the British, it works in the other way around, as about the bases, unfortunately is legal and generally you can do all this by a war, throw them out with guns to leave the bases and after do not let any British to come to Cyprus and then go to leave in Iran because there will not be any Cyprus.

Anyone else want to bet his balls?

Christianism? Hellenism? Communism? Cypriotism? No one can work with out -ism’s, only the apes.

Yes of course they are a member of Europe by a mistake and they have no responsibilities, Cypriots were slaves for more than 2000 years and after their independence and now as a member of Europe are less slaves than ever.

Cypriots survived long before any of these modern trappings and they are innovative enough to survive against all odds no matter the hardships!

Yes no one said what Cypriots will not survive; when the time will come they will realize what they can do to survive (or at least I hope what they will).

Yes of course all this tourism structures that worth billions will be erased in a zip.

Yes there is a cost by tourism but is a choice you have already made and there is no a realistic way to go back to agriculture or make any other industry.

And if a misunderstood something on that please give me some examples because is interesting subject. What you will do after you will go against west (USA and Europe) and after you will destroy your Tourism industry?

Like Buddha said: no one is independent, we are all interrelated.

And such desperate thoughts of total isolation are not even an option in the real world, you must choose your relations and the choice is between west and east and the choice is yours, choose and pick.

In the past the Orthodox “Greeks” (they was not called Greeks back then) to save them self’s (there religion to be accurate) from the evil west and the antichrist pope, choose the eastern way and the Ottoman Empire and like an archbishop of those days said the Sultan was a god agent to save orthodoxy. This is what you could do if you interested.

Well said. It is time to diverse our economy. Cyprus dependency on tourism makes our economy extremely vulnerable to external economic factors.

I would like to add my two cents on the British base issue.

Gone are they days when Brits dictate the terms. Unfortunately, there are some in this forum who cant grasp this reality. You see them whining constantly--chirping the same talking points about how we should have accepted the Annan Plan. It is time to tell them to stop promoting partition or have their British Bases closed.

BTW does anyone know if there are any planned peaceful demonstrations against the bases here in the near future? If so, please advice. I wouldn’t mind attending one of these demonstrations to show my displeasure with Britain's policy on Cyprus.

Agreed, and what about all the so called 'employees' that work at the bases? They should have a 48hr flash strike and demo outside, do what most other countries, like india, iran, iran to name a few, would do, burn an efegee(Spelling?) of Gordon brown for the media. But the GCs are just full of shit sometimes, as long as they get their shitty wage doesn't concern them

but its an idea. what say you guys?

We can hijack the road from dhekelia to St. Nick for a day, bet they would love that not having free movement, let them see how it feels to be held to ransom.

I am totally discusted with the British government, but then, it was the F labour party that F***ed us back in '74. As the saying goes:

'Oses fores kai lousis ton skilo, pale skilies tha vroma', translated to :

'How ever many times you bath a dog, he still stinks of dog', how very appropriate in this case too.

My two euros worth.

[Pyrpolizer]

And you still insist to participate in such a highly political forum????

Europe never said such a thing. They were just allegations of Politis newspaper, that some employee, of some commissioner, told them such orally, such nonsense i.e.

How pathetic and easy believer you are!

This is what was the respond of Europe and Ollie Rehn that your ex foreign minister was insulting. 1 You are simply hopeless.

And why didn’t start the bully thing with the Germans and the vote of their parliament 2 that is similar with what the British are ready to do?

And why don’t you go against to ECHR also that is ready to indirectly recognize TRNC? 3

The list is too big and counting and the last thing you need is to continue the same bully policy that leads you with mathematical accuracy to the absolute humiliation.

And no not even for a joke you can say what you will go against Europe, it’s so simple even for you.

Maybe you should speak and provoke less and try to find a way to end your self destruction and self humiliation that is coming from your pathetic ego trip that is actually destroying your brains.

1&3: You are clueless. Your panic is only good for laughters.
2: Slowly slowly. We have parliament too and we can stick our noses in their affairs too you know.

[Daemon]

I’m afraid what you are the clueless, what newspaper are you reading?

The brain-deads from Simerini?

The ECHR indirectly recognizes the property commission as legal. And where? In an illegal state and for how long? As about the other is easiest to found the Europe respond and do it before you will continue this pathetic game that leads you no where.

And of course the list is bigger and we will need a week to present all the crap that your hilarious government did.
