[Srg91] Post -Anti Take Over (ATO) Country President (CP) Election
•

Good day Australia,
Warning - Wall of Text
Ever since June 2010, eAustralia has been under Political Take Over (PTO) threat by an organisation called Angel and Demon. This organisation emerged from no where, but contained many high profiled eIndonesian players, naming Wonder Forward (past eIndo CP), wizzie Don aka regen (past eIndo CP) and sandygee (high ranking eIndonesian soldier) and many more. By July 2010, this organisation successfully PTOed eAustralia in the position of Congress as well as CP.
For the new players who have joined eAustralia since June 2010, CP elections have been a battle, not between eAustralians fighting for being the best CP candidate of the month, but a struggle for an entire nation's independence and freedom. This fight has cost eAustralia heavily, from man power (players) to having no currency/gold for our nation to grow (as we had no control of our national treasury).
However, I am not here to talk about the past. I am here to talk about the present. I know what you new players are thinking about. Who is this guy?? Why should I listen to him? To answer that, all I can say is that I was once a senior Cabinet Minister that served eAustralia and I always had eAustralia's best interest at heart. I am now semi retired but still keep an eye on eAustralia here and there.
On the the meaty of the this article.
For the new players, this upcoming CP election would represent freedom. Having that choice to vote for the BEST CP candidate that eAustralia provides. I am not here to tell you who to vote for, but I am going to provide you with some of the policies that I believe a suitable CP should have in their policy of this month.
Economics
In terms of Economics, we should aim for strengthening our currency value. The main concept here is to increase the gold eAustralia have in its circulation. I think we should aim to stable our currency value at 50 currency per gold (this is the global average).
There are, stop printing, reduce over all production cost and aim to export our products that can help our nation.
Stop printing:
Stop printing would stop creating currency for our nation. Hence the currency in circulation would be reduced as players quit or become inactive. The would mean that our currency would need more gold to buy in the long term.
Reduction of over all production cost:
Reducing production cost is not one of my most popular ideas, because this would represent reduction in paid wages to all eAustralian. However, more foreign players would pay gold to convert into our currency and buy our cheaper products.
Exporting production:
This would also increase our currency value, as we are selling our product for foreign currency. This would mean that we can convert those currency into gold, and use this gold in the eAustralian economy.
Military:
Aside from Western Australia region, we should not be thinking of taking ANY other regions. Even for WA, we probably need to time this with eUSA attacking eIndonesia, such timing will be important in reserving our resources and helping eUSA in winning against eIndonesia.
MPPs with Eden nations are a MUST, as it provides us with battles for training.
In terms of military. As eAustralia does not have the economical capacity to sustain many battles, I do not think military (aside from afew of the best soldiers) would be that important as of yet. Expansion of the military should be considered only once economics is stable again.
Social:
Socially, eAustralia has lost alot of active members. CP candidates should be aiming to one: education new players and two: try and recruit older players into eAustralia for high skilled labor.
I think thats really it. Lots to be done for the upcoming CP candidates and I wish them best of luck.

Srg for MoE?
"AExpansion of the military should be considered only once economics is stable again."
Agree totally on this matter
Agreed, that just makes sense. Of course, we should continue to educate new soldiers and plan for an expansion in the future.
Yo wally, I never said not to rebuild our strength. But keeping it to the elites. Mainly because right now, assuming we have important battles. WP are unlimited. We want to get the best value out of our fighting, hence we need to keep it to the elites of the army for now.
We only have a force for defence purposes right now, and not to pull an offensive on anyone,
sif delete comment wally 😛
cool
Great walls of text 🙂
Nice commentary Srg
I deleted while you were typing I guess, srg.

50 is too low if we want to be competitive on the international market but voted for encouraging exports.
patti, I think this should be our aim, perhaps not this month, but this should be the aim we should be reaching for.
In terms of short term, I think 65 by the end of the month should be ok, provided to dont print and AnD does not use their hidden stash (and come on we know they have it).
srg91 as much as I respect you as a great Aussie Hero to stop printing money right now makes absolutely no sense.
All the Aussie dollars are in the hands of foreigner especially A&D and all the non printing of currency would do is enable the Indonesians to make massive gold gains from the revaluation of the currency. Right now our aim needs to be to print money to get the value of future appreciation into the Aussie Government. We need a low dollar right now so we need to print as much currency as possible.
you are spot on savonrepus
savonrepus is right, it would be irresponsible to revalue the currency so soon.
Correct ... We can't stop printing yet, but we cant wait forever to be sure that AnD have no AUD left.. It's almost a fruitless excersise to wait as AnD will post the gold, being experienced players, and inevitably noobs will buy it. giving them the cash back. They then wait for it to drop.This has to be carefully instrumented. .
Any re-valuation has to be slowly incremental toward a target range. Setting a definite target allows the speculators to dump AUD or gold to make quick changes to the market of which they can take advantage. The MM target must have a degree of flexiblility to it.
The national bank needs the funds from money prints to be able to have some control over the MM. Drying up that source will have negative consequences.
As far as the AnD funds, they'll trade it when they trade it. We should be prepared for it, hopefully it will be done slowly so as that will be to their advantage.
I understand what you guys are saying, but if we do print AUD to counter the amount AnD has, then we will simply go no where in terms of strengthening our economy.
Let us assume that AnD has 200k Aud (no idea on figure tbh), if we print 200k Aud to counter it, we will have less gold and 400k Aud to deal with. Rather, we can strengthen our economy, let AnD use their Aud and rebuild. This way we will limit the waste of Aud from our part. Printing right now get us nowhere, because this will limit our chance to recover. AnD will wait for months for us to recover, if we keep doing the wait with them, we will never recover at all.
Also, if we have sooo much Aud its all worthless, we will never be able to strengthen it.
100% correct.
You dont need to assume how much AUD they have, just look it up. Its 222k AUD, last time I checked a few days back it was 261k. All the evidence suggests they are steadily buying gold off the MM thus releasing AUd in small amounts.
There is no rational reason for them to unload the 222k on the market if they did there are enough buyers who would be happy to buy it cheap. The rate would go down to accomodate the strength of buying, the currency would be bought and then these traders would profit by allowing the market to rebound and slowly dribbling the AUD onto the market.

Of course...
@ venja If they are releasing Aud slowly, then let them become the MM managers for now. I am sure Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) can do normal trading daily on MM to increase profit slowly. This will stabilize the MM whilst creating a small profit for now.
I am not saying never to print. But to wait it out and wait for the gold in this economy to increase abit before attempting to trade.
@Wally, may I ask what sort of reforms you had?
When I became MoF and Vorodor after me, we pushed for printing money to form a trading wall (hence we make gold out of it but kept the market at a stable rate). But this is not the point. I am saying that this month, we should not print at all. If we need weapons, we can use the gold to buy it, as first: due to our weak economy, we shouldnt think about doing any training wars for now and that high level eAustralia weapons are extremely expensive.
We should be limiting our supplies and keeping it to ourselves and join limited (perferably no) allies based activities. This is because, for the past 5 to 6 month, eAustralian soldiers has barely gotten involved with operations (aside from eAustralia one). The operations that involved eAustralia Soldiers that was not based upon eAustralia regions were probably funded by other nations.
Hence it makes no sense to have a need for printing Aud, aisde from increasing gold for the government. However, as pointed out previously, currently we do not have a strong need for that too.
So i personally think, we need to stablise the MM not via printing. As printing usually weakens one's economy. This is not about the government becoming rich. This is about the citizens for the upcoming month.
@wally also, "You also need to keep in mind that over time AUD and gold disappear from the economy from players exitting the game."
"Stop printing:
Stop printing would stop creating currency for our nation. Hence the currency in circulation would be reduced as players quit or become inactive. The would mean that our currency would need more gold to buy in the long term."
Yes I know that currency disappears and that is what I want to achieve. This way we can have more gold for our remaining Aud. As for gold, with the new buttons (working and training and wp) gold is disappearing faster then the rate of the currency. You can say that players buy gold. But who knows if those players actually buy enough to replace the disappearing gold. Even they do, they will be more likely to be spending those gold on tanking rather then anything else. Which means gold is still not been added to the economics (aside from weapons, but then its not been added to eAustralian economics because our weapons are costly).
"we shouldn't think about training wars?"
derp
This highlights my big concern that your opinion is too limited in the belief that having a particular exchange rate is the end goal of financial management.
As long as I'm PM, we'll have battles and training wars to keep our military growing, interested and active. Training wars also means the government and soldiers purchase goods from the market thus stimulating the economy. This circulates the AUD and gold throughout the economy - paying wages, profiting business owners and churning funds around the MM.
I can't agree with any of the "old school" thought that we should sit and wait and not do anything like training wars. Hasn't it become plain that waiting and over conservatism is part of what got us into our predicament?
No, we're not going to starve the market just for the markets sake and we're not going to stop training wars and MPP's, etc. Not as long as I am PM.
@srg91 "Also, if we have sooo much Aud its all worthless, we will never be able to strengthen it. "
You hold the AUD and the rebuild the economy. All ships will rise in the tide.
Who is this Wally guy? 😛
I think you misunderstood me, I meant, we should have training wars for the population, but not have any training for the soldiers. If soldiers wishes to train, they can using their own funds, which will stimulate the market anyways.
