During my last period of service as Minister of
Communications and Works, whose sphere of competence includes public works, telecommunications, transport and shipping, I had the opportunity to manage and coordinate the preparation of the Ministry's budget which, apart from its operational aspects, is basically devel
opmental.As regards management, I worked for eight years as the manager of the imports section of a large Cypriot organisation with international connections and subsequently, for six years, I had the opportunity of working
...[+++] as general executive manager of the largest cooperative credit organisation, which, with 135 employees and a budget of Eur 550 million, was very well placed to convert to a financial institution on the basis of European directives upon the accession of Cyprus to the EU.
In der letzten Zeit, d. h. während meiner Amtszeit als Minister für Verkehr und öffentliche Vorhaben, in dessen Zuständigkeit öffentliche Projekte, Telekommunikation, Verkehr und Schifffahrt fallen, hatte ich Gelegenheit, die Vorbereitung des Haushalts des Ministeriums, aus dem nicht nur operationelle Aufgaben finanziert werden, sondern vor allem Entwicklungsvorhaben, zu leiten und zu koordinieren.
