CMIRS Survey: Presidency Most Trusted, Government Least Trusted
A survey conducted by the Centre for Migration, Identity and Rights Studies (CMIRS) in March 2026 with 500 participants has revealed striking findings on political trust, social confidence, and public perceptions among Turkish Cypriots.
According to the study, which is carried out quarterly, the most trusted institutions were identified as the judiciary, the presidency, and the police. Following the recent presidential election, the presidency once again ranked among the most trusted institutions. In contrast, the least trusted institutions were the government, parliament, political parties, and trade unions.
A similar pattern emerged in satisfaction levels. Participants expressed the highest satisfaction with the presidency, judiciary, and police, while the lowest levels of satisfaction were recorded for the government, parliament, and trade unions.
The findings also indicated low levels of perceived public participation in decision-making processes. Only 12.80% of respondents said they felt they had a say in decisions made in the country.
The survey further highlighted widespread negative perceptions in society. A significant 87.80% of participants said injustice is prevalent, while 88% pointed to widespread partisanship, 88.2% to corruption, and 81% to bribery.
