Pauline Read on Pauline Read’s Petition – CPAG is not the HBPG
Cyprus Property Action Group (CPAG) demonstrated in south Cyprus today and showed their disgust at the way their property problems were being ignored by the government. Their main complaint was the non-issue of title deeds and the fact that banks were being allowed to place mortgages on property which had already been sold to them and for which they had paid in full. The problem is that because owners of property did not have their deeds, the developers could place a mortgage on their property at any time up until the deeds were transferred into their name. This was because until then the developer was the legal owner and could do what they liked with the property.
This is the very issue I am challenging here in north Cyprus and yet the interest in challenging it along with me is minimal. It seems as if property victims have got so used to taking their problems to the HBPG and then sitting back and waiting, that they believe they no longer have to do anything themselves. These property victims do not realise that HBPG is no longer able to help them and that their only hope is to unite against those who are taking them for a ride. One look at the HBPG website, not updated for 3 months, will show you that it is in decline. Sitting quietly at home waiting for someone to contact them may be less stressful for property victims but unfortunately it is exactly what the construction industry wants. This is the same attitude as the builder who said to the property victim that they would have electricity tomorrow and even though they knew it was a lie they preferred the easy option of not challenging the lie.
My target is one bank at first and if this is successful I will move on to the whole north Cyprus banking system. I need your help with this. It is time to challenge the people who are taking our hard earned cash and to make them realise that they can no longer take us for suckers. Are you up for it?

It appears no one in Cyprus owns anything, the whole island is mortgaged.

The British reserve has allowed these injustices and fraud to happen and continue for far too long. I have to agree that neither the HBPG or BRS are being effective in that the TRNC officialdom simply fobs them off knowing that nothing will happen. Politicians have no fear of the ballot box from non voting foreigners. I think that only positive action such as demonstrating and publicity, thus shaming Cyprus, its politicians & finanancial institutions will have any effect.

It was not until I came to North Cyprus that I really knew the meaning of the expression
‘ a lamb to slaughter’ and a very apt one at this particular time of Bayram. So many of
us lined up, parted with our money, totally convinced, he was a nice chap or she was a
a nice chappess, who wouldn’t dream of ‘conning’ us. Recognise yourself I know I do.
Well ‘chap and chappess’ we’ve woken from our ‘dream’ and we want some Justice and
if we are offending those who still believe in your ‘niceness’ then so be it.
Contrary to the opinion of the ‘I’m alright Jack. here gimme back my rose coloured spectacles,
dont upset the status quo’ brigade we are not the minority, the numbers duped are too
great. Yes maybe my wording of the Petition isn’t spot on, guess what, I’ve never done this
before so bear with me,I have made it pretty clear what it is we are fighting, hey if
you think its clever to question my wording, go ahead, I’m glad you have the time, but
please dont let semantics prevent you signing the Petition, if you do not want to sign, let it
be because you do not support us, not because of the wording of a self confessed
amateur. We need more signatures – I am led to believe there are over 1,400 of us in
the same position so please, if you affected sign, if you are not affected show your support
of those who are by signing.
There are paper petitions at THE GRUMPY GROUSE in ALSANCACK – THE CYPRUS
QUEEN in ALSANCACK THE STUMBLE INN in LAPTA and THE RITZ CAFE & BAR
in CATALKOY.
The HBPG are doing a good job and I know as soon as they have the new software needed
my initial article will be posted. I am not trying to exclude Marion Stokes, she is fantastic
and has achieved so much.
Let us at least be as brave as the equally aggrieved victims in the South.
All is well. Rlessin on witter, the Wall Street banker, and his son Sam Lessin, are doing good in Cyprus.
