About the Political Module and about the Immigration Policy
Vesszen Trianon
As you know, for now the political parties are disabled. The main reason is there are no political parties in RL Saudi Arabia and the Admins need to find a satisfactory solution which would make it possible for the RL Saudis to access the eRepublik website.
This is a computer game, but it is played by human beings, who live under the constraints of the Real World. It is important to avoid transforming eSaudi Arabia into a second eNorth Korea (no RL North Korean can access eRepublik because none can access the Internet), just like it is important to avoid that eSaudi Arabia turns into another ePakistan or eAustria (= the playground of whoever feels like PTO-ing it).
Another reason why we think it's a good idea to suspend the political parties is to keep the bot-farms away. As long as there is no possibility to PTO a country and rob its treasury, there's little incentive to start bot-farming. Interestingly enough, the rate of births took a dive after the political parties were suspended. Just as interesting was the birth rate had increased in a spectacular way right before the time for Party President elections.
Immigration
The Transitional Government welcomes the RL Arabs who want to play the game as eKSA citizens in spite of the current restrictions in the political module.
If you are a RL Arab (and can prove it via a voice interview in Arabic language over Skype), please contact us. You will be interviewed by one of the RL Arabs with whom we coordinate the "Arabian countries for Arabs" policy in eEgypt, eUnited Arab Emirates and eSaudi Arabia. If they confirm you as RL Arab, you'll be granted citizenship.
The role-players who dislike this immigration policy are free to shout "racism" or "discrimination" or whatever else. We do have a free press in eSaudi Arabia therefore use it, by all means.
What you role-players need to understand is nationalism is the most powerful driving force in eRepublik (but of course, you being role-players, can't understand that, can you?).
Nationalism was the one and only ingredient which fueled the Hungarian, Serbian, Polish, Macedonian, Turkish and Bulgarian baby-booms. And the only way to have a strong country is to trigger a baby-boom. We, the members of the Transitional Government, view as our main duty to make sure such a baby-boom happens. And part of the process is to guarantee the "newborns" don't end up in a toy-country like ePakistan or eAustria. We will not go home and we will not abandon the strict immigration policy because that would jeopardize the future of the RL Arabs in this game.
When the RL Arabs will be filling in all the places in the Congress (provided the Admins will activate the political module), it will be up to them to grant citizenships to whomever they would like to.
Therefore feel free to use the freedom of the press to your heart's desire and rest assured our inflexibility in the immigration policy is here to stay.

Prime Minister of eSaudi Arabia
Comments
Have Romanians and Arabs relations in RL? I couldn't understood. Why 'you' protects Arabs. If admin want Arab babyboom, they must choice right persons for gv. Example: What's your president's name? 'Lawrence'. Who is Lawrence? The most famous agent in Arabs countries. (He was English). You will make babyboom with him? Romanians don't know Arabs.
Other question; If admins want against PTO, why they don't protect Pakistan,Singapur, etc.
I think you want Saudi Romania.
there are about 20-25 RL Turks in eKSA like me. most of ours are united against PTO. if Romanians who are eKSA citizens work for eKSA , no poblem.
Question is, will romanians be able to control romanian PTO supporters?
So the Prime Minister has no eSaudi CS?
Look, Seriously, Talk when you actually DO Something for the country.Until now all you have done is "TALK TALK TALK".
Dear nomihomi reborn, you have been playing this game for two days now and I am really happy to find dedicated players like you in our small e-country.
Although I have no idea what is your RL occupation and whether it's related to public administration or not, all what I can tell you from my 3 years experience in the game is that eSaudi Arabia is moving in the right direction at the right pace...and all eSaudi citizens should be grateful to the current Government for their titanic work.
I will gladly share with you some tutorials in order for you to better understand the game mechanism.
Lawrence
Your CP
Changing the topic.You have no answer 🙂
@nomihomi reborn:
I didn't take the KSA citizenship for a few very simple reasons:
1. Since this is a Transition Government, I will hand over my position to a RL Arab at some point in time.
2. Why should I use up a "passport" (there is a limited number of them) when that passport can go to a RL Arab?
3. Since I don't have an eKSA citizenship I cannot run for Congress. Therefore I cannot be accused of being here out of "hunger for power" or for "hunting Congress medals". Neither would I risk being caught in the middle of political fights once the political module gets activated.
@Mehmet Aurelio:
Yes, there's no accident the Romanians are involved in this project. A large part of the industrial infrastructure in all the RL Arab countries was built by the Romanians (roads, factories, oil refineries, power plants - my own father built a power plant in Jordan) in the '60s, '70s and '80s. In addition to that a lot of engineers and doctors have studied in the Romanian universities. 2 out of 3 members of the Jordanian RL Parliament have graduated in Romania, there are 10,000 mixed Iraqi-Romanian families, some 8,000 mixed Syrian-Romanian families, etc.
And it goes both ways - our RL deputy Minister of Health (Mr. Raed Arafat) is a Syrian who went to medical school in Romania then decided to stay and got RL Romanian citizenship. Also one of the most popular soccer clubs is owned by a RL Jordanian who got Romanian citizenship.
Due to the recent history (the last 40 years) a lot of Romanians are familiar with the Arab culture and therefore we felt confident we'll be able to develop a good cooperation with the RL Arabs in this game.
And as you can see from their comments, we succeeded. The ones who are unhappy are NOT RL Arabs.
So mihail, why have the "So precious Cs passes" been wasted on all the Romanians then if u were gonna save them for Arabs?
Other than that, Very good, there are MORE HONOURABLE MEN IN this world,They havent done this, And we know you well, so you can go just now, we have better people to take care of this.
@Allies Organization:
1. We are the ones in charge because the RL Arabs want us to be in charge. We will leave only _after_ the RL Arabs hold the majority of the citizenships and there's no risk they can be PTOed;
2. All the passports are issued according to the needs. There is no RL Arab who has asked for a passport, proved he's RL Arab and didn't receive one;
3. Why do you guys imagine we would leave before the end of the Transition Period? Are you under the impression Romania became a eRepublik Great Power by being a pushover? We are all part of the military, we have a mission, we will leave only after the mission is accomplished.

This is what I call opinion

Maybe you've run out of quota citizenship. OCTAVIAN CUCU has accepted lots of Romanians, ask him why you didn't get one.
@Guzca:
I don't _need_ a passport. What should I do with it that I cannot do without it?
"there are 10,000 mixed Iraqi-Romanian families, some 8,000 mixed Syrian-Romanian families"
Oh amazing numbers! If you're saying these, what can say Pakistanis,Turks,Indonesians... We have same culture, religion, geographical closeness, etc.
Actually, you're good reason for Arab babyboom, you're right. I can imagine news. "Makkah and Medina under control of Romanians in browser game: eRepublik."
@Mehmet Aurelio:
Actually that type of news was another factor we had in mind...
mihail, RL Arabs dont Want you here 😒 What makes u think they want u here? Or are you talking about the RL Arabs not in Saudia? The RL Arabs in Saudia definetly dont want you, so i guess you should leave? Why were Romanians given CS then? If there were many Muslim players who wanted to come here, Why waste your Precious CS' on Gypsies?
هائل، هذه هي الروح العربية المعززة ،يعيش العرب احرار
What I see here is a bunch of PTO-ers trying to reach the throne.
My friends, the one who has Plato by his side wins, he has the upper hand.
It's unfortunate that he drags the name of Romania into this, and other Romanian citizens with him in this shameful act called "preparing the country for RL Arabs" (this could easily become "the oldest trick in the book")
Honestly now, do they even have freedom in Arabia to play eRepublik?
I agree. All I'm seeing being accepted is romanians . And I have Arab roots , my family is Islamic but I don't speak Arabic .. does that give you the right to turn me down but to accept a Romanian who.only is going to help you get elected .
I am a real life Arab
I don't think that speaking Arabic makes you an Arab.
I read and write Arabic fine, I speak poorly.
But I am Muslim and my father is from Jordan
@nomihomi reborn:
As I was saying, feel free to use the freedom of the press. There's not much else you guys can do for now, is it?
@AbdullahII: You already have citizenship, in spite of speaking Arabic poorly. Now wait for the political module to be activated, get a place in the Congress and grant citizenship to whoever you like.
The citizenship thing isn't the issue for me.
It is just that I am unable, as an Arab, to do anything in my government. I want to run Saudi with Arabs. Not Romanians.
I find it hilarious that you create a country without a userbase, even though it has been said that you choose countries with high userbases based on IP hits, just because you have chums who want it.
Also, protecting these new countries from PTO's when you don't offer the same protection to every country.
The Community officer sure does suck, unless his friends are involved.
@AbdulahII:
The faster you bring RL Arabs to the game, the shorter the Transition Period will be.
No political module???ok I'm out of here
Btw, if you are giving the congress to RL Arabs, this term, The congress seats will go to : AbdullahII, Wars 7, Asad799 and Me.
The first 2 are RL Arabs, me and Asad are RL Saudi residents.
+1 dishmcds
So tell me this: Did you ever pass the voice test? I didn't think so.
@wars 7:
You failed the voice test or what?
V+S!

No. I never took it, and never will. But my point is, you can't expect people to do things even YOU can't do.
"Nationalism was the one and only ingredient which fueled the Hungarian, Serbian, Polish, Macedonian, Turkish and Bulgarian baby-booms."
Funny Romania isn't mentioned on the list, yet Romania is far more nationalistic than other eNations. Romania is currently in the process of conquering Moldova to realize it's nationalist dream of "Great Romania". As well, if nationalism and hate are actual eRep policies, I don't know how much longer this game will be around.
I think all muslims in eRep need to be ready. Cazacu will probably try to get Israel to invade and conquer Mecca and Medina to create his nazi paradise in eKSA. Sick bastard.
REMEMBER, IT'S JUST A STUPID GAME, DON'T PLAY ALONG WITH THIS A$$.
