It has alway intrigued me to find out and meeting a friend who took part I asked and he explained the formula, the deciding factor was the state land which was the key, the 50% being allowed for the return of GCs wanting to reside in the TC state.
There isn't a logic VP, other than that based on the idea that the TC State should roughly correspond to the TC population (18%-20%) plus an extra allowance to accommodate the increase of this (TC) population due to the return of GC refugees and others into that area and which would have been allowed to become as many as up to 1/3 of the total "TC" State's population. Therefore, if 19% equals to 2/3 (66%,) then 1/3 (33%) equals 9.5%. Consequently: 19% + 9.5% = 28.5%
So where the hell 10% of property and land has lost that belonged to 10% of TCs who emigrated between the years 1878-1960? All international sources prove that TCs constituted 1/3 of population in the begining of Brit Rule.
Insan, before 1571, the amount of Turkish land and Turkish population in Cyprus was 0%!
So? I'm talking abt those TCs who emigrated and alienated all their lands and properties to Evkaf that was recognized by 60s treaties..
Insan, those people took their land back with them to Turkey, when they emigrated from Cyprus; just like they brought it with them from Turkey, when the Ottomans conquered Cyprus in 1571.
Since those TCs alienated all their properties to Evkaf; they r still under posession of Evkaf. All estates of Evkaf have been legitimate since the begining of the Ottoman rule.
Insan, before 1571, there was 0% of Turkish population in Cyprus, but also 0% of Turkish land in Cyprus. Correct? Correct!
Now, if after 1571, up to 30% Turkish population came in Cyprus, that also had up to 30% Turkish land in Cyprus; it means that these Turkish people that came to Cyprus after 1571, they also brought together with them their own land from Turkey. Correct? Correct!
Now, if after the British took over in 1871, the Turkish population was gradually reduced down to 18%, but also Turkish land was reduced down to 18%; isn't it logical that those Turkish people that left Cyprus back to Turkey, took with them also the land they brought when they came here in the first place, i.e. after 1571?
I mean, why can you not be able to follow this very simple logical explanation?
