cyprus is more indian then it is GREEK .. idiots.. at least the majority here would idsagree

Are they not Sri Lankans rather than Indians?

Actually, the Vietnamese now seem to be gradually replacing the Sri Lankans.

Do these 'welfare carers' return to their native countries after their contract ends? Or do many 'overstay' by marrying a 'Cypriot'. (not necessarily meaning Greek Cyp)/

It's a very interesting situation; if a non-EU national resides and works here for more than 5 (I think) years, they have a right of Residency, under EU legislation. So, Visas ar never issued for more than that period; I accompanied a Sri Lankan friend to the Immigration office in Lefkosia and was told quite openly, no Right of Residency would be granted irrespective of EU Law.

Most return to Cyprus under new identiites/passports; I imagine the majority are here on 'second' passports. Visa can also be obtained on 'Refugee' status - a nonsense given the end of the Civil War, last year - and even before that.

My friend, speaks a little Arabic, her native Sinhala, good English and passable oral Greek - even though she has never had a greek speaking employer.

One wonders why they(EU) bring in laws that are not or will not be enforced. Mind you it goes on everywhere.

They will - if they don't lack courage (like Cypriots, allegedly).

I would guess one of them is Epsilon, assuming the meaning of the poll wasn't lost in translation.

cyprus is both greek and cypriot just like crete is both greek and cretan, the only difference is due to geo-political factors cyprus has become an independent republic which we are proud of !!!!

[repulsewarrior]

the ethnosphere is collapsing at a rate far greater than ecological speices. 6,000 languages exist on this planet, there were 12,000 not long ago. a language (and the culture it carries with it dies) every two weeks presently, with the passing of the last elder to speak them. less than a thousand, the number of languages which will survive. and 8o% of the world's population will speak one of eighty as a mother tounge.

if "cypriot"; Greek/Turkish/Others is to survive then this People must adapt to the technological changes which have made English such a facilitative means of communication. bits and bytes count. volume is an issue when population is small. consider the notion that as a hub, Cyprus and Cypriots as a Policy, it/they can have many Official Languages; to this aim, functional and transparent, of service in a word's translation (and it's meaning).

...you think that Cyprus is very small, i tell you think, the population is at least ten times bigger less than 200 years from now.
"they" will be the reflection of this issue resolved throughout the EU, we are this advent.

please (lol); read my manifesto.
