on tuesday (before i leave cyprus) i visited the north and some friends.

i saw or heard somethings that i did not know and i would like to share them with you:

1. after the check point thare was a big black sign written (also in greek) expressing the condolences of the tcs in regard to the plane crash. its just sth so small yet so beautiful. thanks

2. most of the casino advertisements were written in greek and none in turkish. sometimes i think that capitalism despite its inhumanity is much more progressive than any kind of cypriot left .

3. i was surprised to find out that if one wants to sell property he can get twice as much if he has a RoC title. it is even found on the advertisements. "buy land 100% safe" or sth like that!!! isnt it amazing?
i guess the free market accepts realitites that people or polticians are not willing to accept.

4. in regards to selling property. a tc friend told me he wanted to sell a piece of land, which belonnged to him before the war. as a strong supporter of unification he came to the south and asked to do everything the "legal way". the answer he got was, this is an occupied land and u r not allowed to sell!!!!

let me repeat.
there was a tc,
who had the chance,
to do everything "illegal",
he chose the legal way,
even if that way would cause him money (sell land pay taxes),
and,
our inspired state
decided to force him to chose that way,
so we can later accuse him,
that,
he doesnt believe i the RoC.
BRAVO.
great idea!!!!


5. i was dissapointed that i had to pay to go to the beach. the free market is not that great after all. by the way is it true that a number of kyrenia beaches are private and one should pay if he wants to swimm?

I am sorry to hear of the swim charge.

Capitalism, no matter how ugly and how evil, may and I repeat, may defeat the Cyprus problem before either side agrees to a resolution.

Why is this amazing? Do you know many stolen things that are sold for their real value? When something is stolen the thief is trying to sell it at much lower prize in order to attract customers.

This is the same for GCs. They are not allowed to sell their property in the occupied areas either.

The reason for this and the one to blame is the occupation army that doesn't allow RoC do its job as it should in the occupied areas.

i know it is.
and u can argue that the same rules should apply to gc and tc as well.

but the reality is unfortunately, that we are pushing the tcs away from us.

for every action we should weight the pros and cons, and in this case i believe that the overall outcome of the decision is not to our benefit.

i mean what is better, follow a law or try to avoid the pro-partitionists grow?

I am sure he must have gotten this negative answer from some low ranking personnel in the land registry, who most like didn't know how to handle such a case because it didn't occur to him /them before. I do not think this is the official policy of the RoC regarding such sales of TC properties in the north.

In any case, if this would be the official policy of the RoC then it is out of space from a logical, moral and constitutional perspective and wouldn't stand a minute in front of the Supreme Court, should the TC wanted to take it further.

There are rumors that you put these two GC cars on fire last night in Morfou. Why did you do it?
