Cyprus Transportation, Storage, and Telecommunications
Transportation, storage, and telecommunications
contributed in
current prices 8.1 percent of GDP in 1979 and 9.4 percent
in 1988.
The three subsectors accounted for 5.5 percent of the
gainfully
employed in 1979 and 6 percent in 1987. The value
contributed by
the subsector to GDP was C£48.7 million in 1979 and C£178
million
in 1988. Transportation and storage alone represented 74.7
percent
of the subsector's value in 1979 and 72 percent in 1988.
The
subsector could be considered to some extent trade because
of large
components in transshipment trade, warehousing services,
and air
passenger services connected with tourism.
