Nor do I, its the principle thing just as the GC do not want to cross using their passports I do not want to use a passport of a country that I do not pay taxes to, feel I belong or represents me. Using the TRNC passport forces other countries to take note that there is a country called the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus.
We dont need a passport to go around in my country, I dont do that to go to Limasol, Larnaca or Pafos and I dont want to do that for Kerynia or Famagusta. Using my passport to go to the north side of the island doesnt change anything. My country recognize me as one of the citizens, so I use my passport to travel outside Cyprus. And they recognize me without any "force".
