Cyprus has a new Minister of Justice. His name is Costas Fytiris. He made a good choice. He will not take a pension for being a minister. He said this on Tuesday. Many people think this is very good. It shows he is honest.
The minister wrote a message. He sent it to important places. He said he believes in being responsible. He also believes in being good. He will still get his pension from the army. He worked in the army for 40 years.
The timing was good. Ministers had a short time to decide. They had to say about pensions. People were not happy. They did not like officials getting many pensions. This made people angry before. Mr. Fytiris’s choice is good for the public.
New laws let officials give up pensions. Mr. Fytiris is using this new law. The money he does not take is a lot. His choice can be a good example. It can help other people.
