If you don’t like it here…

Sir,

As l sit here on Tuesday morning having listened to the news, I am now reading my Cyprus Mail and feeling rather angry at some of the articles. When I reached page 15 (I’m dreaming of a green Christmas), I felt I needed to write this letter.

I came to live in Cyprus from the UK because I like the way of life. I have settled here and I adhere to the rules and regulation of this country.

I consider myself lucky to have a choice, and that people who have a choice to live in a foreign land should respect the culture and not try to change it – integration is the key word here.

It is not a right to move and want to change what is there, if you move and you don’t like it or it was not the right choice, go back and think again. The UK is always up for people wanting to change things.

Now for the watering of golf courses! With global warming all around us I’m sure that there just may be in our lifetime just enough aqua to suffice.

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
