Cyprus Forum

Welcome to the future flagship forum of Cyprus. The main difference of our forum from all others is that all user posts and news from the Cypriot media are automatically translated into three languages: Greek, English and Russian. The translation is done with the help of an innovative neuronet, so we expect a quality result.
The main mission of the forum is to unite all the international communities of Cyprus, erasing all linguistic boundaries between them. Currently we are inviting all interested people to develop the sections of the forum.
We look forward to welcoming you as a new user!
Welcome and feel comfortable here!

President Nikos Christodoulides on Friday approved a vacation subsidy scheme for low-income pensioners in Cyprus, allowing them to take discounted holidays in resorts and hotels located in rural areas of the island and in the village of Kato Pyrgos.

Labour Minister Yiannis Panayiotou said the scheme was approved by the Council of Ministers, with details following in the upcoming days.

He confirmed that the scheme’s official start date is June 16 and that an announcement detailing the names of the participating resorts and hotels is still being drafted.

“This is a very important programme for the government,” Panayiotou said. “The beneficiaries are pensioners with low incomes who struggle to cope with the difficulties and challenges of everyday life and the increased cost of living.”
