Join the new world

Dear citizens of the Netherlands,

Today is day 9 of my term as country president. I would like to give you an update on our progress. At the start of the term we had some issues with the preliminary budget. It was so high that we weren't sure what to do with it. In the end we decided not to spend 300k and spread that money out over the nxt three months. However, as pointed out by a former minister of finance and long time member of the government odan, there was a problem with the preliminary budget. Now that that was all solved, we started to work on our programs. Four days ago a substantial amount of NLG was donated to the ministry of defense in order to fund military programs.



The Flying Dutchman
This term The Flying Dutchman has received more private donations than ever before. With the government contributing 240,000 NLG towards the training of our pilots we hope to see great results in the next three weeks. Janty F who coordinates The Flying Dutchman has already published several articles this term. I ecourage everyone to fly in the national aviation program.



The Green Berets
This is a new project which will start at the end of this week! After some discussion within the government, we budgetted 60,000 NLG for this project.
Since we will start the program at the end of this week this budget which would normally be a monthly budget will now be spread over two weeks making for quite high subsidies.

The program of The Green Berets will work as follows.

- Every month the government sets aside a financial sum to be spent on this program.
- Soldiers who fight in ground battles and do 1,000,000,000 damage or more during a week of fighting (weekly leaderbord) will receive financial compensation.
- The government may also want to distribute Q7 weapons collected by Shawtyl0w from the eNL National Commune holders to individual soldiers who did 1,000,000,000 damage during a week of fighting.
- Awareness for this program will be created through means of a weekly MoD article listing the names of soldiers who did more than 1,000,000,000 damage during the past week. This weekly article can be a combined article with the “The Flying Dutchman” program.
- The financial rewards will be distributed to soldiers on a weekly basis without them having to claim them.


Example

Total government budget 40,000 NLG (4x 10,000NLG)
Week 1:
Weekstrom, UserIDHidden, Mic911
Every players mentioned above will receive 1/3 of 10,000 NLG
Week 2:
NoTie112, Djirtsdew, Mafceez, Weekstrom, UserIDHidden, Mic911
Every player mentioned above will receive 1/6 of 10,000 NLG

If this does not prove effective the total budget will be distributed on a monthly basis. In this example only using the two weeks mentioned above
Total budget for 2 weeks(in this example representing a month): 20,000 NLG
Weekstrom, UderIDHidden and Mic911 would receive 2/9 of 20,000 NLG and NoTie112, Djirtsdew, Mafceez would receive 1/9 of 20,000 NLG. Applying this method 1/9 of 20,000 is more than 1/6 of 10,000 thus players who reach 1,000,000,000 less frequently than others will relatively benefit more.

Please note this is a program tested during this term. I hope to see it become one of the government programs described in our lawbook. Our heavy hitters sometimes fight without Q7 weapons because of the high weapon prices. the government does not forget them!



National Strikes

Iran is still waiting to liberate themselves from enemy occupation. Serbia has started actively fighting Turkey but is having a difficult time. Soon national air strikes will be ordered. during these air strikes citizens who fly for our allie in the specifically mentionned air round will be compensated. If the air battles proves to be heavily fought the government will require proof of participation OR for you to in the top 50 damage dealers.




Last but not least, with this weeks valentine event which offers players a chance to swap strength and to receive an extra 10,000 energy regeneration I hope many of our soldiers manage to either rank up or for tank to achieve this 1,000,000,000+ damage this week. Although The Green Beret will start next week I will make sure everyone who reaches 1,000,000,000 will receive a little extra prize from my personal storage.
