GÜRSOY Bundan seksenbeş yıl önce Osmanlı İmparatorluğunun bir parçası iken, padişahın hükümranlık hakkı mahfuz kalmak üzere fiilî idaresi İngiltere'ye terkedilen, fakat 16 Ağustos 1960 tarihinden beri müstakil bir devlet haline gelmiş bulunan Kıbrıs adası, bugünün en çok ilgi toplayan konularından birini teşkil etmektedir. Muhtelif meslekten insanların gittikçe daha yakından meşgul olduğu bu eski yurt parçasına, ötedenberi Akdeniz memleketleri üzerinde: çalış­ tığımız için hususî bir alâka duymakta idik. Bu sebeple 1959 ve 1960 yaz tatillerinde Kıbrıs'a giderek onu yakından tanımaya karar verdik ve bütün adayı dolaşarak coğrafî müşahedeler yaptık. Bu müşahedelere imkân veren seyahatlerin yapılmasında maddî ve manevî müzaherette bulunmuş olan Fakültemiz Dekanlığı ile Ülkeler Coğrafyası Kürsü Profesörlüğüne, Kıbrıs Türk Kurumları Federasyonu Başkanlığına, Kıbrıs Türk Maarif Dairesi Müdür ve elemanlarına, orada yakın ilgilerini gördüğümüz eski ve yeni öğrencilerimize ve nihayet misafirperver Kıbrıslı Türk kardeşlerimize teşekkürü, yerine getirilmesi icabeden bir vazife sayarız. Kıbrıs hakkında yazılmış birçok eser ve makale vardır. Bunlar arasında seyahatnamelerle tarihi, siyasi, arkeolojik ve jeolojik çalışmalar zikredilmeye değer. 1929 senesinden evvel neşredilmiş olan 1500 den fazla eser, makale, 1) Türk Coğrafya Kurumu tarafından Konya'da tertip edilmiş olan XIII. Coğrafya Meslek Haftasında, 12 Kasım 1959 tarihinde verilen münakaşalı konferansın metni olup 1960 da ya­ pılan yeni müşahedelerle kısmen tadil ve tevsi edilmiştir. Ayrıca 1963 yılı Ocak ayında Alman­ ya'nın Hamburg Coğrafya Cemiyetinde, Kiel Üniversitesinde ve son olarak Samsun'da tertip edilen XV. Coğrafya Meslek Haftasında 1 Haziran 1963 tarihinde Kıbrıs hakkında konferanslar verilmiştir.
  • UK Overseas Territories

    UK Overseas Territories

    INFORMATION PAPER United Kingdom Overseas Territories - Toponymic Information United Kingdom Overseas Territories (UKOTs), also known as British Overseas Territories (BOTs), have constitutional and historical links with the United Kingdom, but do not form part of the United Kingdom itself. The Queen is the Head of State of all the UKOTs, and she is represented by a Governor or Commissioner (apart from the UK Sovereign Base Areas that are administered by MOD). Each Territory has its own Constitution, its own Government and its own local laws. The 14 territories are: Anguilla; Bermuda; British Antarctic Territory (BAT); British Indian Ocean Territory (BIOT); British Virgin Islands; Cayman Islands; Falkland Islands; Gibraltar; Montserrat; Pitcairn, Henderson, Ducie and Oeno Islands; Saint Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha; South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands; Turks and Caicos Islands; UK Sovereign Base Areas. PCGN recommend the term ‘British Overseas Territory Capital’ for the administrative centres of UKOTs. Production of mapping over the UKOTs does not take place systematically in the UK. Maps produced by the relevant territory, preferably by official bodies such as the local government or tourism authority, should be used for current geographical names. National government websites could also be used as an additional reference. Additionally, FCDO and MOD briefing maps may be used as a source for names in UKOTs. See the FCDO White Paper for more information about the UKOTs. ANGUILLA The territory, situated in the Caribbean, consists of the main island of Anguilla plus some smaller, mostly uninhabited islands. It is separated from the island of Saint Martin (split between Saint-Martin (France) and Sint Maarten (Netherlands)), 17km to the south, by the Anguilla Channel.

  • Essex Area Update

    Essex Area Update

    Essex Area Update Welcome to the June Edition of the Essex Area Update Lockdown Thoughts I suppose I’m lucky. No walking round public parks for me on my daily permitted exercise. Instead it’s out of the front door, walk 50 yards down the street, turn left and I’m on the Harcamlow Way. Cross the Cam (a trickle in this dry spring) and a few hundred yards later I can choose to go left towards Saffron Walden, straight ahead for Debden, or right for a circumnavigation of Newport. At this time of year, things change almost every day: there are different shades of green and fresh blossoms. Normally, even on a Sunday (if I can avoid the temptation of Sky Sports’ Premiership offerings), it would be rare to meet anyone. But now, whatever the time or day of the week, I keep meeting people. Some are in family groups, others couples or individuals. We always say hello, and sometimes strangers stop for an appropriately socially-distanced chat. This is unusual; it’s part of the etiquette for walkers to greet each other but we’re British and supposed to be reserved. One man insists on telling me about his obviously traumatic recent divorce. I listen politely and I’m happy to act as a sort of psychotherapist, but there’s part of me that’s a bit embarrassed. I guess he’s lonely and maybe I’m the only person he has spoken to in days. Hardly anyone I meet is what we ramblers would regard as properly shod; most are wearing trainers or less solid footwear, and I wonder how they would have got on if lockdown had happened a month earlier when the mud was ankle- deep.

The Company’s forma- tion was an entrepreneurial move by the founders of Joannou & Paraskevaides Ltd., a successful construction company operating in Cyprus since 1941.The newly-formed international company grew steadily to become the dynamic organization it is today. After successfully completing its first overseas projects in North Africa in the 1960’s J&P rapidly expanded into the Gulf during the 1970’s. Over the next thirty years the Company broadened its operations throughout the world to become a global enterprise with a range of activities to meet the challenges of the industry. Today, J&P has a dynamic presence in the Middle East, Africa, the Asian Sub- continent and Europe. The core of the J&P Group’s operations is the Gulf Area and the GCC countries, with landmark projects in Saudi Arabia, the Sultanate of Oman, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar, with regional offices in Riyadh, Jeddah, Muscat, Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and Doha. During the mid-1980’s the company entered the Oil & Gas sector and has since built an impressive portfolio of successfully completed projects in Libya, Saudi Arabia and Cyprus in the upstream and downstream sectors, as well as in power generation.
