Two time zones now a reality

NICOSIA, aside from being the only divided capital, as of today is now also probably the world’s only city of its size to have two time zones following the decision in the north not to return to daylight-saving time, which came into effect in the early hours.
There is now a one-hour difference between the north and south of the island with the Turkish Cypriots remaining an hour ahead and while many find it amusing, there will be practical issues, especially for Turkish Cypriots who work in the south of the island.
Many saw political expediencies behind this as the ‘cabinet’ in the north took this decision last month following Turkey’s announcement that it would not return to daylight-saving time meaning it would not turn its clocks back an hour on October 30.
