Hi so sorry it didnt work out for you here. It pays to do a lot of homework and sometimes this means years of research. The mentality is different here thats true, and trying as some have to work against the natural flow here has meant failure. I dont agree that being Cypriot necessarily goes against setting up business, it depends on which business you are entering into. Cyprus truly is a wonderful place to live and if you can succeed in business as well its a perfect place to stay. Good luck with everything and hope your health improves.
