As a result of non-recognition, economic embargoes and political isolation, hopes for a federal solution have diminished and the economic integration of North Cyprus with Turkey is now on the agenda. In the study discussed in this paper, academics and top managers in the private and public sectors were interviewed to ascertain their expectations concerning the possible impacts on the tourism industry of North Cyprus of such economic integration. The consensus was that economic integration would improve marketing and promotion, transportation, and investments in the tourism industry. However, the success of the industry depends heavily on increasing the competitiveness of the North Cyprus tourism product in terms of price, quality and marketing, and on the successful establishment of joint ventures with Turkish entrepreneurs.

<p><strong>BACKGROUND:</strong> From 1995 to 2007, age‑standardized total cancer mortality rates in the North Cyprus (NC) fell by around 9% in both sexes. Available cancer mortality data in Europe up to 2002 allow a first check of the forecast of further declines in cancer mortality. <strong>MATERIALS AND METHODS:</strong> We considered trends in age‑standardized mortality from major cancer sites in the NC during the period 1995-2007. <strong>RESULTS:</strong> In women, total cancer mortality declined by 23% from 92/100 000 to 75/100 000 between the years 1995‑2007. Corresponding figures for men were 85/100 000 to 66/100 000, corresponding to falls of 23% from 1995 to 2007. Lung cancer in men declined from 20/100 000 around 1995 to 16 around 2007 (−20%). In women, lung cancer mortality was 2/100 000 and there were no changes between the years 1995 and 2007. Bladder cancer declined by 25% for both men and women from 1995 to 2007. Breast cancer mortality declined from 18/100 000 around 1995 to 15/100 000 (−16%) in 2007. Prostate cancer was approximately stable until 2000, but declined from 8 to 6 (−25%) in 2007. <strong>CONCLUSIONS:</strong> Despite the persisting rises in female lung cancer in the EU, the recent trends in cancer mortality in the NC are encouraging and indicate that a 9% reduction in total cancer mortality from 1995 to 2007 is realistic and possible.</p>

Cyprus Island has been divided into two parts since 1974. In April 2003 crossing the Green Line across the borders became possible and both parts of the Island benefited from this; firstly due to resulted domestic tourism in both sides and secondly from new employment opportunities mainly for Turkish Cypriots in South. Besides that, positive expectations over the Cyprus problem accelerated the expenditures in both sides. In the North, demand for land and new dwellings increased, pushing prices upward. Demand for land and a new property by foreigners is busted in recent years. The UK, Israel, Russia and some other countries started to buy land in the North Cyprus by securing resources to their businessmen especially in the areas of Komi Kepir, Kalogrea, Akanthou, Karpass, Risokarpaso, Yialousa and Livera. Such increase in demand by foreigners decreased the supply of land to domestic use. This has many implications on North Cyprus economy which is very small with limited resources in production. In this study, 4- factor, 13-industry a single country general equilibrium model is used to investigate the changes in income, employment, prices, output and inputs required for production resulted from this supply shock. Results show that, under fixed capital and flexible labor market, 10% reduction in land supply increased the value of land by 108.8%, income increased by 2.04 % and prices of skilled labor and capital increased by 1.028% and 1.020% respectively and due to the reduction of land supply, output decreased by 1.53%.
