If there is one single pattern emerging from the six years or so of the rule of Anastasiades as President of Cyprus it is one of deception and unkept promises. A number of examples of such dubious form of behavior adversely impacting the economy are cited. Unfortunately, the ruling party proved to be masters of trickery and a rare breed of self-serving pundits practicing crony capitalism. Which of course, only leads towards further erosion of the foundations of society and results in even more economic misery and national degradation.
