Alliance survey results + Is an Asian alliance feasible?
•

To have more background on what topic the new survey is concerned, please rea😛
http://wiki.erepublik.com/index.php/Alliances
27 citizens answered the survey in the past two days. The sample size is around 8% of the total population of the Philippines.
WOLF had turned out to be the top choice among Filipinos, at 33%. Still, we can see a high percentage of indecision among the people, with the Undecided option garnering a distant 19%. Only 11% wanted to go back to NaN, which virtually fell after the exit of Cyprus and the Philippines this month.
However, I had this vision even before I became President of forming an alliance among countries in this part of Asia, namely China, Taiwan (ROC), Malaysia, Indonesia, even Thailand and Singapore (though there had been news that the last two mentioned are suffering from take over). The former foreign ministry of Indonesia also mentioned a possibility of forming an Asian alliance.
Map of the extent of the said countries today, only Philippines and Malaysia had no regions as of the time being
WOLF may had been seen as an attractive choice for the Philippines' next alliance mainly because of the recent presence of Pakistan in the region, who actually took over three of the Philippine core regions a few weeks back. Pakistan (289) now ranked 65 in population, with an average citizen level of 22. Still, if one looks it in a way, Pakistan is an outsider to the region, and WOLF is mainly a Middle Eastern alliance (no offense, only impartial analysis).
Asia had been an area of general peace in the New World. Only the interference of Pakistan in the Philippines (as substitute to the agreed occupation of Indonesia), occupation of Portugal in Japan (they are now out of here), and the Indonesia-Australia war had been the significant fighting seen here. Still, to some, an Asian alliance is also another attractive alternative. I mean, neighbors should be looking out for each other anyway. If one neighbor is occupied, the other will see their borders threatened. Also, who else could help better in developing military and economic progress than your friendly neighbors?
However, there were also past failures among regional alliances. Examples include:
* http://wiki.erepublik.com/index.php/Arab_Confederation - an attempt to unify nations in the Arab world
* http://wiki.erepublik.com/index.php/PACMAN - an alliance between Philippines, Singapore and Malaysia
* http://wiki.erepublik.com/index.php/Sol - perhaps the most successful to be formed in this part of Asia, but it eventually fell apart as well
Perhaps we should study the failures of these regional alliances first, before we could begin planning for an Asian alliance. Feasible? For me, yes, most probably. Long-lasting? Its hard to say yet.
Well, some say that the the larger countries (China, Indonesia, Taiwan) will just monger the smaller ones once such an alliance is formed. I believe, though, that these nations have their form of regional conscience, and would not allow their smaller neighbors to go empty-handed. Sure, there are defense issues, but is not an alliance supposed to look over unfairness and injustice, then correct them? Is an Asian alliance supposed to be visioned to keep, or even increase, the general peace and progress in the region (and that meant ensuring regions and congress elections for every member)?

Asian alliance feasible?
http://www.erepublik.com/en/article/alliance-survey-results-is-an-asian-alliance-feasible--2320908/1/20
good lucky !! we need more alliances 😉
I think the eIndo gov have already discussed it with eChina gov, but no decision has been made.
I would love to see the outcome :3
With the recent war proposal of Indonesia against Argentina, I guess it would take a longer time. Not to mention, our current CP is RL Argentinian
Not sure about the NE thing. No official statement from eIndo gov at the moment.
It's a random proposal I guess 😐
I really hope so. Also, I hope Indonesia helps us have Congress this month. Only two days left before the 23rd
I don't think that the law will pass, they do not need that war
Great articles as always 🙂
Are you saying Croatia is not a part of Asia??
Putting this aside, very good article, I gave you vote and sub and I wanna say that Phillippines have always been sypathic to me 🙂
Oh also, fck my engrish
No, what I meant is our part of Asia. [Your territories in] India is not exactly neighbor of the Philippines in terms of original borders.
I know I know, was just joking 🙂
votadoo
Every country would need to grow stronger than they are now before this even becomes a possibility.
not to mention the fact it would never happen, its a retarded idea
Voted,
BTW, I miss this survey.
Good Job
*in my dream*
sound good
Vote o7
good idea .... make it possible
What is lacking for China and Indonesia to form such an alliance is both the lack of a bilateral negotiator and public willingness to see such an alliance take fruit. Both countries have seemingly large divergent interests and thus without a bilateral neutral party it would be impossible to formulate any form of compromise and thus agreement. Therefore, I guess a noted eFilipino diplomat could initiate and judge dealings between both parties, though such a process would be quite a long and delayed affair 🙁
nice 😉
