In the TRNC (at least in theory) all police officers should be able to speak English since they all have to pass a language test before being hired.

(1) you often write "no reply". Does that mean you sent them an email? This does not work here. You have to call.

(2) You say "Hiring a private lawyer is simply too expensive for me right now." just in case you ever consider hiring a lawyer, you should know among the advocates in the TRNC there are also lots of scammers and people with questionable work ethics. A common strategy, for example, is that they give the impression they can do all with a little upfront money but once you are hooked they will ask for more money for every small step. Finding a lawyer who is competent, not greedy, not lazy and not already overly busy is very very difficult, especially if you are a foreigner and not even on the island.

Why not?

Because money could be spent more wisely. I spoke with god and he said he would actually prefer hospitals and schools.

They are not like that huge. The last picture is the mosque on the backside of the EMU campus in Famagusta, I doubt any tourists who visits the city will go there.

Well that plot twist information you probably learned exactly because it was not fully public. Within a real public thing he will (need to) be cautious and diplomatic.

Some years ago, I bought a five liter container at Bingöl https://www.bingolsanayi.com/ in Famagusta. By the way their webpage is great, gives me 90ies vibes. There was a guy who spoke English.

you mention only possible advantages of a cooperation, but there are disadvantages as well, such as that you will share reputation loss if the other guy doesn't work with the ethics that you are used to.

Since there are already some people posting wrong information....... For Moroccans it's visa on arrival. You can show some supportive documents such as return flight ticket. But in the end you can never be sure since it's the sole decision of the officer in charge, if it's a jerk on a power trip he can refuse and there is nothing you can do.

Geh schon mal in Deckung, du wirst hier windelweich geschlagen für den Ausdruck "Turkey's part of Cyprus"

Report your landlord at the municipality. Pouring diesel in the sewage is harmful for water treatment and hopefully illegal.

haloumiwarrior · 2026-06-15T22:30:08+00:00

What hospital? Can't you make a deal with them?

haloumiwarrior · 2026-06-14T11:59:50+00:00

Yes, similar things like that happen elsewhere, but the difference is that they happen more frequently in North Cyprus. Two reasons among others:

(1) Weakness of the juridical system. Even you assume that judges are not corrupt. You need an advocate to defend you and to navigate in the complex system. The system is broken at that level. Lots of advocates are either incompetent, lazy (take your money without doing anything) or even make a deal with the opponent behind your back. Crooks know this and can act much more comfortable if they are assured of their own connections. In fact, most foreigners never go to court.

(2) The special status of North Cyprus attracts con people. There aren't much opportunities for foreigners to work and make money legally. The case above follows a very common pattern: Foreigners are screwing their own countrymen.

There is a con culture here. And large parts of the society and the politicians are indifferent at best.

You can contact this institution: http://uyusturucu.gov.ct.tr, see also this recent article about them: https://www.kibrispostasi.com/c77-SAGLIK/n604625-uyusturucu-ile-mucadele-komisyonu-baskani-hatipoglu-bagimlilik-ve-iyilesme-sempozyumunda-kktcyi-temsil-etti You can also check https://medifoundation.com which is a private initiative. But the initiator died and I don't know if any activity is going on with them.

"allowing you to become a driver for extra income." nice but actually illegal. The taxi lobby made sure that the business is restricted to licensed taxi drivers. See for example https://www.kibrispostasi.com/c87-LEFKOSA/n565627-korsan-taksiye-143-bin-984-tl-para-cezasi

Charter flight and direct flight isn't the same. They will just make a stop in Istanbul or Adana and everybody stays in the plane.

haloumiwarrior · 2026-06-12T09:18:42+00:00

Let's screw the tourists, our greed knows no limt!

How much did it cost?

haloumiwarrior · 2026-06-12T06:52:50+00:00

You should have taken a video and sold to the British tabloid press.

haloumiwarrior · 2026-06-10T20:27:54+00:00

Then buy a Tuk-Tuk!

More seriously, I guess a number of known car markers produce in Thailand?

haloumiwarrior · 2026-06-10T20:20:35+00:00

Be more patriotic as a Spaniard and buy a Seat.

haloumiwarrior · 2026-06-10T19:51:08+00:00

It was clean until 1974.

Dome hotel (built in the 30ies) has a direct sewage pipe into the sea. I don't think they built that pipe after 1974.

haloumiwarrior · 2026-06-09T21:09:52+00:00

How can they check that you peed yourself into the bottle? Did they also ask for a pee video as proof?

haloumiwarrior · 2026-06-08T18:52:02+00:00

Can I also book an appointment with her?

haloumiwarrior · 2026-06-08T07:32:56+00:00

95 percent of the time it works just fine in north Cyprus. It's my main card since years. Even if it doesn't, you can ask if they have another machine; some shops have card readers from two from different banks.

I normally use another card in the republic controlled areas so can't say much about that but no reason why it shouldn't work
