Party Merge :: the Ronin / The Democratic Party of Japan

Day 931, 01:56 Published in Japan Japan by Angrr

It may have come to the attention of some that before the election, members of the Ronin party began to migrate towards the Democratic party of Japan.

This is the result of a prolonged period of talks between the two parties, and is aimed at securing the 5th party slot, and hopefully providing a safer, more secure eJapan.
The Democratic Party of Japan has long shared many of the same core beliefs as the Ronin, and a merge takes nothing away from either party.

The name of the Democratic Party will continue. The Ronin will pass into history.
Ronin members need not mourn this passing though, as an organisation - named the Ronin(link) has been created to continue the traditions of the party - reaching out to people through the media, and continuing "the Ronin's Voice" articles in it's newspaper. (link)

This newspaper will accept articles of a similar theme written by any citizen. If you have something to share or pass on, then send it to the organisation, or to Angrr and have it published.

The DPJ has committed to run blockers in every region during congress elections, and whilst any help and support is accepted, we hope that drastic actions will not be taken by other elements in the community to influece the top 5 parties.

All citizens of eJapan looking for more from their political party, consider joining the DPJ - The party for free thinkers.

Here is to a long and succesful future, and the end of a party that meant a lot to myself and some other members. We will not forget the party, because it's spirit lives on in us.
