Military

Believe it or not, the military is essential to all eCountries . Through great efforts of our eSA military we keep our eCountry safe and unified. I would like to concentrate on expanding our military even further and also get our eNation prepped for V2 (Erepublik Rising). There are many changes that now need to be factored in with regards to specialising in different skills. I believe with open discussions and possible co-ordination on skills development would be the best thing we can do.

Democracy

I believe in democracy and ones democratic rights. With constant threats of PTO’s etc we need to take our time and build ourselves some solid and secure foundations to protect our democracy in future. There are several varieties of democracy, some of which provide better representation and more freedoms for their citizens than others. However, if any democracy is not carefully legislated – through the use of balances – to avoid an uneven distribution of political power, such as the separation of powers, then a branch of the system of rule could accumulate power and become harmful to the democracy itself

Economy

An economy consists of the economic system of a country, the labor, capital and land resources, and the economic agents that socially participate in the production, exchange, distribution, and consumption of goods and services of that area. With v2 on the way a lot is going to change with the diversity of skills that we can specialise in and this needs to be discussed and what will the best way forward for our economy

Foregin Policy

We should continue to uphold our alliances and especially preserve the great opportunities we have through them. When deciding upon international affairs and MPP’s, I will listen and participate , while keeping in mind, what is best for eSA.


Domestic Political Affairs

I stand for more government transparency. After all, Congressmen and women are there upon YOUR votes, spending YOUR money, making vital decisions about YOUR country, and should answer to YOU!

Thank You

I hope to see you at the polls on the 25th of June 2010.
