Δικηγόροι σε Κύπρος - Review - Ανατολική Μέση Ενστάσεις - Συμπλήρωση - ² Μαρτίου 2011. http://www.lawcyprus.org/

Κύπρος τουρισμός έχει οριστεί σε ξινή αυτό το καλοκαίρι λόγω της πρόσφατης αναταραχής και διαμαρτυρίας στις χώρες της Μέσης Ανατολής.

Πολλά ταξιδιωτικά πρακτορεία που προσφέρουν συνήθως αυτές της Βορείου Αφρικής / αραβικές χώρες ως προορισμό διακοπών συστήνουν τώρα Κύπρος μαζί με μερικούς επιλέξει άλλες χώρες ως εναλλακτική λύση σε αυτά τα ανήσυχα μέλη που αντιμετωπίζουν τις διαδηλώσεις.

Ρωσία για παράδειγμα, είναι μόνο μία από τις χώρες όπου πολλές διακοπές έχουν ακυρωθεί λόγω των ταραχών, που σημαίνει όχι μόνο περιμένουμε ήδη εκατομμύρια των Ρώσων τουριστών φέτος, αλλά θα είμαστε επίσης επιπλέον πάνω από αυτό.

Κύπρος ταξιδιωτικοί πράκτορες βλέπουν μέχρι και μια αύξηση 30% σε παραθεριστών, λόγω των ταραχών!

Η τουριστική αγορά του Ηνωμένου Βασιλείου φαίνεται να είναι σταθερό το οποίο μπορεί να θεωρηθεί ως θετική, όπως πέρυσι σημειώθηκε σημαντική πτώση και των ταξιδιωτικών πρακτορείων του Ηνωμένου Βασιλείου δεν προσφέρει πραγματικά Κύπρος ως εναλλακτικό προορισμό διακοπών, που σημαίνει ότι το Ηνωμένο Βασίλειο παραθεριστές έρχονται εδώ από τις δικές τους επιλογή και όχι λόγω της διαμαρτυρίας ... αυτό είναι ένα καλό σημάδι.

Θα ήταν λάθος να πούμε ότι είμαστε ικανοποιημένοι με την αύξηση του τουρισμού λόγω των περιστάσεων της ανόδου, αλλά ναι, θα βοηθήσει την οικονομία Κύπρος.

Από την άλλη πλευρά με τις διαμαρτυρίες διαδίδουν όπως την άγρια ​​πυρκαγιά αυτή θα μπορούσε να επηρεάσει εύκολα ολόκληρη τη Μεσόγειο, ανά πάσα στιγμή τη θέση μας σχετικά με τον κατάλογο επικίνδυνη ζώνη.

Για όσους από εσάς ψάχνουν για να κλείσετε τις διακοπές σας στο εξωτερικό, η Κύπρος κυβέρνηση έχει εκδώσει προειδοποιήσεις να μην ταξιδέψουν στα ακόλουθα σημεία: -

Αίγυπτος

Τυνησία

Λιβύη

Σουδάν

Υεμένη

Μπαχρέιν

Μαρόκο

Αλγερία

Μπορείτε ακόμη και να σκεφτείτε ακόμη και να θελήσετε να σκεφτείτε για διακοπές στο σπίτι στην ηλιόλουστη Κύπρος φέτος!

Legal Office in Cyprus – Studies – Paphos Marina – Completed on 10 ^th March 2011. Cyprus Lawyers A&G KOUZALI LAW OFFICE http://www.lawcyprus.org/

More delays are now expected with regards to the new Marina in Paphos!

When the Paphos people thought things could not get any worse it just did.

Paphos is one of the coastal towns struggling to stay alive with many businesses closing down and many foreign nationals packing up and going home.

One of our colleagues took a walk down one of the main tourists streets in Paphos and counted 73 commercial properties closed down…not just for summer but for good!

And now with further delays on the marina along with other developments the future is looking very bleak…that may even be an understatement.

The tenders for this marina have been in motion since 2005. We are now in 2011 and still no closer to a new marina.

2 consortiums are battling it out in the Supreme Court with appeals and it could be another 6 months before a decision is made on which consortium will win the battle. This means it will be over 6 months before work will even begin on the marina.

A proposal was put forward a year ago for the 2 consortiums to work together on the marina however agreements could not be made satisfactorily, hence still no marina as yet.

Paphos has so much beauty and so much to offer and the plans for the marina we have to say look very impressive and once it is built Paphos residents will with no doubt at all reap the rewards.

We really hope the marina and other developments get underway sooner rather than later. In fact we hope this for all development in Cyprus.

Paphos really deserve and need some good luck!

Cypriot Lawyer – Reviews – Government investment funding – Completed on 3 ^rd March 2011.

We have a very big question to ask the government. In fact you could actually say we would like to put a complaint forward to the government.

We want to know why is it that the government have acquired billions of euros to invest in Cyprus and of all those billions the only new development happening for the Famagusta region is a new road under construction in Paralimni.

Please can you tell us and the Famagusta public how this will help the Famagusta communities?

A new road will not bring in extra tourism, extra property investors or extra employment hence continuous poverty. Famagusta is struggling to keep their summer seasons alive so inevitably in the winter season this area is nothing more than a ghost town.

We are hearing a lot about new development in Nicosia and Limassol but what about the rest of the island, what about us? Has anybody actually taken a picture of the unemployed people queuing for hours in the departments of social security?

Part of the signing on procedure is to visit the job centre every 3 weeks. Are you aware that on those visits not one of the staff ever asks what are you doing to find a job and you know why because they are fully aware there is none? They don't even look through the computer to see what jobs they have available as there is none.

So once again we ask what about us? And where are all these billions of euros going? Please can you tell us this?

Famagusta needs new investments, new development, we need to get our community up and kicking so what are the government going to do about that?

Cyprus Lawyers – Review – Cyprus/Qatar deal – Completed on 9 ^th March 2011.

The government are becoming very frustrated with the constant criticism and scare mongering relating to the Cyprus/Qatar Nicosia deal.

Negotiations were underway concerning the valuation of the government land based in Nicosia, which is to house a new luxury hotel, leisure and commercial centre.

However, controversy has broken out over the price of the land that the two countries have agreed upon. Originally the land was valued at approximately €140,000.00 by Cyprus and only a little under €40,000.00 by Qatar. In the end the agreed price for the land is €50,000.00 this is a 60% reduction in price.

Also causing debate is the lack of knowledge relating to the profit that the whole complex will make. Which leaves the question is the development really worth while especially as the land has gone for so cheap?

The Cyprus government feels that once the Nicosia deal is signed, sealed and delivered Qatar will then look to invest maybe billions in to Cyprus. Qatar has requested a list of new development to take place in Cyprus of which already looks promising.

Qatar are very interested in Cyprus and really with other countries giving away land for free the government we feel have made the right choice in lowering the price of the land. We need this foreign investment and sometimes you just have to speculate to accumulate.

If this deal goes sour this will in doubt at all put off other future worldwide investors, so this scenario really needs support from the Cyprus people.

The only disappointment we have on the whole issue is that Famagusta is only mentioned once in all this billions of pounds worth of investment, which is the Macronissos Marina, costing a little under two hundred million euros but it figures really as Famagusta seems to be forgotten when it comes to investment!

Lawyers in Paralimni – Studies – Business Robberies – Completed 5 ^th February 2011.

Cyprus is suffering from a rise in crime. Not only is the drug problem rising but burglaries and robberies of businesses have been occurring more and more of late.

Businesses who are open till early morning hours or are open 24 hours a day are more at risk of robberies occurring.

This is a very frightening thought and could well be a very violent experience. Anything can happen when these incidences occur. The robber could become very violent depending on how the situation is handled and how much they really need the money.

While many late night business owners are preparing for the worse should this happen, they have been warned that if they take the law into their own hands they will be prosecuted.

So basically the best course of action is to stay calm, hand over the money and hope and pray the robber will it at that. Large sums of cash should not be left on the premises and males must always be employed for night time shifts. Cameras must also be fitted, not only to assist in insurances purposes but also to help identify the culprit and the crime.

It is better to lose a bit of money than cause the culprit to harm you in any way!

Robberies were up 30% in 2010 and 2011 looks no better. The rise in drugs is always prime suspect for this type of crime but also social and economic repression is most definitely adding to the problem.

Realistically, for the working class these is no work so what are they going to do…what are their alternatives? Especially if they can not claim benefits also, which might we add does not even cover housing costs, …..They turn to crime!

We are living is uncertain times, and life is very hard for many, which in return sparks, crime, drugs, protests and risk to others.

The government must seriously take a good look at what is going on, on this what once was a safe island and its people.

Legal Consultants in Cyprus – Review – Climate Change – Completed on 6 ^th March 2011.

For those of you who thought buying a house on the beach was a dream come true, could well see a nightmare truly happen if we don't start taking climate change seriously.

Several of the coastlines in Cyprus are eroding as we speak, seeing some coastal properties in danger of actually falling in to the sea….you really cant get anymore coastal than that!

The continuous neglect of the environment and climate change issues has forced over eighty metres of coast line to evaporate and this will not stop until we decide to take a stand.

There is government funding available to these coastal towns however, the communities are responsible to pay half of the costs and in today's society many individuals do not have many individuals do not have the money to pay these additional costs.

So a solution must be found before Cyprus disintegrates all together.

Our coastlines are of major importance to the island, they are the main reason tourists come here so there are many issues to look at.

Primarily, funding must become available to support the necessary action and materials needed for the job in hand to help stop the erosion. Furthermore, it must be addressed not just short term but also long term on what we can do as an island on the whole to prevent this from continuing.

Until we as a whole community pull together the beaches will keep eroding the climate will keep changing and we will continue to put our children and their children at risk.

The government while having their obligations and responsibilities can not do this alone they must have our support.

The Cyprus people must listen as time is ticking away and our island is washing away. What other evidence do you need before you sit up and take action?

Cyprus Lawyers in Famagusta – Review – 112 Emergency Number –

If you have not received a text message as yet then you soon will, regarding the112 EU emergency hotline number.

The emergency number is an international EU number that has been in use for over 2 decades but many EU nationals are unaware of this.

No matter where you are in the EU, whether you are at home or travelling abroad you can call 112 the number for fire, ambulance and police.

Until recently many of us in Cyprus did not know this, it is only because we have been receiving text messages that we have become aware of the number, now everyone is talking about it.

It is not just an international number but also national that all locals can use also. In a recent EU survey only 26% were familiar with the number! Cyprus was found to be the least informed, thus the recent text message to make us aware.

The 112 emergency number is free from all mobiles and land lines. However, if you are travelling abroad and calling from a different EU country you must either speak their language or English.

This is actually a vital issue and a flaw if you look at it, when you consider the fact of a life or death situation, then waiting fro a translator can mean an extra few seconds that you may not have.

For those of you who have not received a text message regarding the EU emergency number as yet we will iterate, 112 is the EU emergency number for police, fire and ambulance services free from all mobiles and land lines.

We do advise if you are travelling abroad to have all local numbers at hand so as not to encounter any delays due to the language barrier.
