Paphos communities to protest bank closures
Twenty communities in the Paphos district will protest against the closure of rural banks in the area on Tuesday. The demonstration will take place in the Lemonari area at 6pm.
According to a statement by residents, the Paphos countryside has been abandoned and the decision of the banks to close branches in Stroumbi and Polemi creates huge problems.
Residents said they want to send the clear message that they are not second-class citizens.
The communities which will participate in the protest are Giolou, Miliou, Stroumbi, Theletra, Kathikas, Pano Arodes, Polemi, Psathi, Agios Dimitrianos, Drynia, Drymou, Milia, Fyti, Lassa, Simou, Kritou Marottou, Asprogia and Panayia.
The branch of Hellenic Bank in Stroumbi is open twice a week.

Re "According to a statement by residents, the Paphos countryside has been abandoned and the decision of the banks to close branches in Stroumbi and Polemi creates huge problems."
Surely this is referring to the Coop banks in Stroumbi and Polemi closing in recent years. And also the Bank of Cyprus closing in Polemi last year..

Certainly miss the BOC in Polemi. The one in Chloraka always has a huge queue.

Re: Paphos communities to protest bank closures
Probably because the BoC shifted most if not all of their Polemi branch customers to there...
