According to Turkish Cypriots, the relationship between Turkey and Northern Cyprus is most commonly described as an “unequal relationship that is not based on respect,”

Now there's an understatement...

Yes, we'll have to run this through the CF Translator...

“unequal relationship that is not based on respect,” = Turkish leadership thinks the CYs of the Occupied Areas are a bunch of ungrateful parasites.

am afraid that the only way TC's have in terms of living in a free democratic society is by moving to the free areas. Than again it is the interest of the RoC for them to stay in the occupied area, otherwise it will be completely taken over by settlers.

No Sympathy for Turkish Army in Cyprus: Report

Someone actually went out and surveyed GCs on this? This has to be one the daftest surveys ever.

The lack of movement south must speak volumes to those clever enough to understand the reality of not wanting to be a minority amongst GCs in your own country.

I think the large difference in house prices must be a major inhibitor, but the RoC government wasn’t clever enough to come up with a “moving back to the RoC” package to accommodate those that were willing if only they had the means.

It would’ve dealt a huge political blow to the Turkish occupation regime.

Why should we move south its no better than the north.

That argument is probably worthy of a dedicated thread.

Im being honest here why move south when there is nothing there for you economically socially, safety wise even the language is a big barrier.

Just because two banks foolishly jumped over a Greek cliff doesn’t mean that everything else has come to a standstill here! Life goes on.

Wages/salaries are still higher than in the “TRNC”, social services are still better, overall opportunities are still greater, and the infrastructure is still better.
