I also want to share with you some of the projects I have recently undertaken in my different jobs here in Norway and in Asgard.



Lowering Taxes:
I started the debate and moved for a motion to raise the Import Tax of WRM to 99%. This has effectively driven out foreign competition on one of the last markets where Norwegians can actually make money. The prices have stayed stayed the same but now priority is given to Norwegians.

I also started the debate and moved for a motion to lower Weapons Import Taxes to 8% and to lower the VAT Tax to just 5% (on the advice of our MoF Akashaton.) This now allows Norwegian weapons producers to make more money which in just the short time its been implemented has already driven weapons prices down. The cheapest Q7 weapons on the market prior to this motion was $14.50. Now the cheapest Q7 weapons prices are $13.90 proving that this motion has already benefited Norwegian producers and of course our brave soldiers who need weapons at the best prices possible!

Securing Daily Tax Revenue from Finland
We gave Finland some of our regions which they took when they invaded the UK. We needed to rent out some of our regions because of PTO threats that we suffer when we have so many Congress seats. As well HQ wanted to give Finland some regions in the South for more access to other nations such as the UK. However we just gave over our regions with no proper agreements in place. We used to make money from renting them to Russia but no one thought to set up a deal similar to those old rental agreements. I believed we should get something in return so I started the discussion with Finland to receive a payment and suggested that we receive the Daily Tax Revenue from the regions of ours that they hold. I thought this would be a good compromise because we are strong allies and they are also doing us a favour and Finland liked this idea enough to put it in an agreement so now we receive a payment at the end of the month that we would not of had if I didn't start the debate on the issue. Ive also just received word while writing this that the total for the past month that is ready to be transferred to us is 16,780cc. That is a huge chunk of change and is only a few thousand cc short of the cost of signing 2 MPP's which will greatly help our economy.



New Allies
I begun speaking with some of the good folks in Australia and interviewed their MoFA which lead to new relations with Australia this past term. It has brought us a new and unlikely (but very welcome) ally. I have already seen some of our great Aussie friends helping in our battles. They share a similar story with us by suffering an AS by FYROM and it has brought us closer together. I also began dialogue with New Zealand in the hopes of creating more allies in the South Pacific and even hoped we could all share a common IRC channel for battles and quicker coordination however they cannot afford an MPP at this time but are still open to working closer with us.



Supreme Commander of Asgard
Being a 2x consecutive SC was very stressful for me. Its why I actually resigned at the end of my 2nd term and made it known I was not up for a 3rd term. Hopefully that also helps some of you understand that I am not the power crazed mad man some of you have been lead to believe. I do not think someone drunk with power would resign arguably the most important and powerful position in all of Asgard. Anyways moving on.

Asgard MU
Under my leadership in Asgard I put forth the discussion to create the Asgard MU. Now it was not entirely me (fettis deserves most of the credit) but I started the debate and worked out some of the details. Now we have a common MU for all of Asgard and will be entirely focused on Asgard battles and also hand out supplies to the soldiers of Asgard. I would like to think that this impact speaks for itself.

Dialogue with Lithuania
During my term as the SC I decided to begin talks with Lithuania in the hopes of finding a peace between us. Talks with Lithuania have virtually been non-existant between our two factions so some were doubtful. Now of course as we know at the time the talks failed and we continued to wage war. However I believe those talks have led to something good. Sweden has a NAP with Lithuania (which now extends to the rest of Asgard) and we are hoping it will be renewed. Our earlier talks I started showed the Government of Lithuania that we were serious about having peace between us and it showed them that they could trust our words and that we honour what we say we will do.

Closer Ties with Asteria
During my term as the SC we suffered an AS by FYROM. I held meetings with them and the rest of HQ and we realized that it was going no where. That is when I started talks with Asteria which led to our historical pact with Asteria. It guaranteed us support from them and allowed Norway to even push into the UK's core regions. Norway and Asgard have now become more than "just those guys fighting LT in the North." We have now become more of a global player backed by our very strong stack of MPP's with Asteria.




As you can see I have been very active in Government and have the bite to match the bark. I care deeply for our nation and its interests as well as all of Asgards and I believe my experience and projects undertaken speak for that. I am active in Congress, on our forums and on IRC. I am not just someone seeking a President medal to just have one, I understand and know the responsibilities that come with it. I am the more experienced and qualified candidate and I have proven it. Now before Im accused of being cocky please note even my opponent has said "experience wise, he is the better choice."

Right now Norway is in a new age. An age of military advancement, new foreign policies and new allies which has led us to become more of global player on the world stage and I have been a helping hand in that these last few months. I would like to ask you to take all of this into consideration when judging who is the better candidate for the job on election day. Thank you for taking the time to read all of this and please keep an eye out for my next article with all of my plans!



As always don't forget to V,S&S!
