humanist wrote:turkish cypriot, that is an interesting post you have posted. It raises very valueble issues in relation to language one that I hadn't really though of. I agree that cost in translations is not an excuse and the RoC needs to re-think its policies on that matter asap.
The only reason I can think of that this may not have been done thus far, that the moajority of turkish speaking cypiots are at this stage, are denouncing the RoC as their country by being citizens of the trnc, in which case the population statistics are not 80% to 18% but much less, I have no idea how many turkish speaking cypriots are currently living in the south, however I would love to find that out. The voting issue that you beriefly touched on is yet another interesting topic that I would like some clairification on. Are turkish speaking cypriots living in the RoC able to and do they have equal rights to vote as their greek speaking compatriots? if not why not? is it time that the RoC take action to rectify these issues? I say yes. Mr Papadopoulos I urge that you take immediate action to ensure that all Cypriots ahave equal right in all domains of Cypriot life.
Yeah I though it was quite interesting too humanist. It was written by that TC journalist that we like. I can't even remember his name but I think you emailed him. I just found it while reading the news so I thought I'd post it.
