In the private sector, all shops, businesses, casinos, night clubs, bet offices, Entertainment centers, etc., except for businesses that produce services within the framework of meeting basic needs such as pharmacy, gas station, bakery, and market. places will be closed until 27/03/2020.

Within the framework of these two measures, it is obvious that a large number of our citizens will stay at home and do not need to go out to the streets. On the other hand, as the government, we call for no one to go out to the street unless it is necessary. Also, depending on the developments within the next 48 hours, our Council of Ministers will evaluate the partial or full curfew under section 156.

One of the better translations of the Council of Ministers’ decision from last night is:

Here are the NEW Decisions of the Council of Ministers;
1. All public officials working in the public sector except for police, fire brigade, health, civil aviation finance and similar services will be considered as administrative leave until 27/03/2020.

3. Within the framework of these two measures, it is obvious that a large number of our citizens will stay at home and do (will) not feel the need to go out.

7. It has been decided to use Famagusta State Hospital as a quarantine hospital, and efforts have been increased to provide sufficient personnel, equipment and bed capacity and all kinds of facilities in our hospital.

Stay safe and well people.

From my interpretation of the above all bars, restaurants, yapi markets,etc have to close.
How is this going to be controlled and what are these employees going to live on?

I applaud the measures . Not yet as stringent as china but its worked well there . They should be doing this in the uk but they darent because of the economic cost.

I think as north cyprus economy is mostly relieble on tourism which is now screwed it was amuch easier decision to make.

My wifes just c e n from the supermarket she said there was a 100s of people there with trollies stacked high.

We were at Erdeners and then Supreme (east side) trying to get chicken, shelves totally empty , this was around 0930. Spoke to neighbour a few minutes a go who said chicken now in at Erdeners. Curry tonight, cold beer and a good film .
Stay safe people!

I believe banks are opening between 8am and noon.

Its controlled by the Zabita officers they are patrolling all areas.

I met the guy who owns the yapi market next to Pools r Us in the supermarket this morning and got his number. He said he could help in an emergency e.g. house water pump packing in.
