Vaughan,
I really do think, that these totally clueless morons live in some far off fantasy land!!! Trying to inform or explain anything, even the bare basics that exists in the Real World, is a total non-starter.
Seems that everyone else THAT can see, .....if even the very basic problem, are the mindless one's here, and they should know, after all they are true CG Cypriots!!! I'm sure that they are truly convinced too, ...that all there wishful thinking, WILL win the day in the end. Just a crying shame that only happens in cloud cuckoo land!!!
We've had the forum brain-box GR, tell us that they make 25 billion euro surplus each year, (that was a real cracker!!) Then he's told us that a 5% tax will get them through, and pay for the reconstruction. That got bombed out, ...and we are now awaiting his next big brain storm.... We have Piratis, Trying to tell us they have done it all before. When in actual fact the biggest civil works undertaken in RoC since the invasion was the motorway infrastructure, and who paid for the majority of that?? They expanded the port at Limassol, but have had to keep expanding, because they didn't have the finances to do the job properly in the first place, or since...
As you said in an earlier post, At some stage there is going to be a serious falling out between those GC's that have a claim to land in the North and those that Don't. ...Maybe one way out of that little senerio would be to put a hefty yearly land tax on any reclaimed land in the North, enough to offset what the non-landowners are being made to pay. You can almost see the shit throwing on the CF now, between the two sides....
I still favour what i think the RoC government of the day will do, as an interim measure and that is Private consortium funded projects in return for long leaseholds and/or other payment methods ...that'll piss a good few GCs and TCs off alike!! But even that is a drop in the ocean, it's going to take a lot of financial planning (and not creative accounting) and looking at every conceivable reconstruction plan and applying every angle possible to keep those costs down .... The money side of things, is just pie in the sky as far as the GCs here are conserned, they haven't got a clue past a villa sized project. The GC's with savvy and in the know, will understand what it's going to take, and will either take advantage of the situation, or take flight to save there stashed pots!!
You've opened a can of worms here for the GCs Vaughan, and a can of worms they can't answer, except in there usual shit throwing and bigoted rhetoric that hasn't got them anywhere since this forum was started, and will continue to get them nowhere in the future....
