Light, sun, sea: three very ancient words still used today by the same people in the same place, describ...

Wed, 15 Jun 2011 07:21:25 +0100

Dear friends,

I have expressed many times my conviction that no mayor and no Municipal Council, regardless of how ambitious and capable they might be, could never claim that they comply fully with their work if they act without informing their citizens.

The citizen is the ultimate recipient and judge of our actions. We have to answer to our citizens who will weigh our work.

It is in this spirit that I welcome you to the official website of Pafos’ Municipality, which was set up for that very purpos...
