Cerri's Cabinet -just in case your interested

Day 715, 04:20 • Published in Australia Australia • by Cerridwen Voeland

Since you all asked sooo nicely, I thought I'd tell you who I had in mind to guide our Country through the coming month ...

dPM - Garven Dreis
Garven Dreis has proven his dedication to eAustralia, having held numerous positions within eAustralian politics. Garven is a trusted advisor and committed member on the forums and IRC - I am not available, I know he would do the right thing for eAustralia and I therefore place my (and hopefully, your 😛) faith in his ability over the next month.

MoFA - Newt Gingrich, Mark Sanchez
Well, we are moving towards a more formal alliance now - and still have local neighbours we need to work with. Newt and Mark are no strangers to working with government, right now, we need to continue to build relationships to ensure our future security and protection. I also expect them to keep the doors open with our local neighbours (including Indonesia), and continue to show Sol that we are committed to working with them.

Defence - Timeoin & Cozza
Reminisce, Dean and Binda33
We are now in the position where all branches of our military can make a real contribution. to this end I am continuing with boot camp, and will ensure we have a strong, motivated and ready to respond military. There will be increased costs, considering our military will be active in more than just war games.

Industry - Xavier Darkmyre
MoI is more than running government companies, it is about demonstrating and maintaining good practice. The MoI will be expected to publicly report on the state of Industry. If companies act unethically the Minister will be commenting. There will be regular provision of information - for consumers, and managers. With the introduction of WA companies onto the market, the MoI role will be integral. I have spoken to Xavier and he feels more than up to the task.

MoImmigration and Security - Patrick Reckitt,dMoICS dylan of darkness
Immigration and Security - We will need information - and fast if we are to stay a step ahead. Apart from the fact he has done it before, Patrick knows what's needed to protect our country's interests - and this means, ensuring senate has access to needed intel before things blow up in our faces. I expect him to monitor and report on applicants of citizens to ensure our nation safe from threat of PTO, as well as work with our intelligence agencies to report back to senate on any issues that affect our national interest.

With the departure of Zaney, eASIO is in need of a new Chair, I have asked Patti11 to fill this role

MoF - Dark Vorodor, dMoF - Johnathon Brown
Vorodor's past performance in Finance speaks for itself. With the return of WA and a potential increase in player base, there will be an increased need to closely monitor the value of the Australian dollar, as well as ensure we are protected from economic attack. Increased military activity will of course result in increased cost, as will the strategic pursuit of MPP's ingame.

MoInfo - Corey Blake, CrowdedHouse
I have noticed how scarily susceptible Aussies are to propaganda. We have played neutral for so long it has been very easy to keep our head in the sand here. Informed citizens are much harder to manipulate and less likely to make careless decisions. We have quite an effective Ministry of Information, but we need to be looking at more than just ourselves. CoreyBlake and CrowdedHouse have agreed to expand the Ministry of Information to cover both domestic and foreign affairs issues in the weekly public reports.

MoCS - Listhp Tomptos
dMoCS -DyceyFarley
dMoCS -Rakkeyal
Obviously, most of you would be aware of my involvement in support and education of eAustralians. I believe that this is one of THE most important things we can do to help Australia- active players will help all aspects of our economy and military. To do this, we need to provide more direct opportunities to support players in building knowledge and understanding, get them engaged and meeting people. We have 20-30 new citizens a day - while I can see why we would want to advertise outside eRep to get more people to join, it would mean a lot more if we could hold on to those 20-30 new citizens that signed up 🙂
Listhp has agreed to provide the below programs through Cultural Services
eMentor

Competitions (social and educational..gotta have _some_ fun 😛)
Wiki maintenance
Development of a Library to be placed on the forums
