Presidential Update - Day 964
eSouth African Presidency
Hello South Africa
As you may have noticed, things have got a little heated lately. No, not with the war module that has yet to come back online, but with the general feeling of a couple of subjects. I will not name these particular subjects, as I'm sure everyone is aware of what I'm talking about, but I feel as though I need to address these subjects.
As you can see, these events have left their mark, to say otherwise is foolish. The forums are in dispute, the IRC is still somewhat aggressive in nature, and everyone is looking to bite off another's head. There's a word for what we're seeing, and it's called poison. After the initial event, or bite in this case, it's over, yet the aftermath is still visible and active. When affected with poison, you have to take the antidote, or you'll probably end up dying.
In this instance, taking the antidote means to stop bickering and arguing over menial things, and instead work together to overcome the shadows that're inevitably going to loom over our great nation. By arguind and dividing ourselves, we are in fact repeating history. Do you remember Feburary? Do you remember when we all acted this same way over Ben Zavelsky? If we keep up, this will be a repeat of March, and no self-respecting South African citizen wants that. However, we have something than we didn't have in Feburary. We have prior experience, and we have choice.
We know this path leads down a road we don't want to go down. We know this path leaves us blind to the dangers that follow, and yet we didn't do anything about it in Feburary, instead we bickered and underestimated everything, until we were left without a country. We know looking at Australia that we can't rely on following the rules, and expecting the rule-breakers to get caught. However, we have a choice. We can either choose to follow this destructive path, constantly trolling those to blame and fueling their fires, or we can show the entire eWorld that eSouth Africa stands united against all opposers, be them Brazil, channers, or simple trolls.
I finally have a Ministry of Foreign Affairs. As you may or may not know, Seisan was the previous Deputy minister of Foreign Affairs. Running the show this time around, I'm sure Seisan will be a great MoFA. Following behind is the Deputy Minister, nick jones, who is willing and eager to learn more about the MoFA. I can assure you the MoFA is in good hands this term.
Earlier, I also managed to make my Ministry of Information active, with Zagarius and bobady zoo heading it as Minister and Deputy Minister, respectively. You've already seen their work, and you can be assured they will do great.
As of now, there's not much that needs to be said. We all need to be unified, for the greater good of South Africa, and we all have our poison to suck out. If we're going to let this poison work it's magic, we might as well give the country away, as there's no other path to take from there. Remain united.
Truly,
Stryke Blayde
South African President
Comments
On my last article, I got a comment from an org named “Mansour's Org”, about my Ministry of Finance selections. I felt as though I should answer him.
“Maybe not good selection, while country minimum wage already changed to 0.10 ZAR per hour (about 24 hours ago) eSA minimum wages on job market is still 1.5 ZAR per hour. May I know what MoF and his/her deputy were doing in last 24 hours ??? why I could not find any article about it and inform company owners ????? company owners will bankrupt in next 3-4 days (mostly new companies). ask your MoF to help company owners and inform them.”
Mansour, 24 hours before you posted that, the admins in their attempt to get the economies adjusted to the new hourly wagr, reduced every country's minimum wage by 10, meaning our minimum wage went from 1 ZAR to .10 ZAR. An economy of any size cannot be fixed in 24 hours, as there's many factors always in effect. The Ministry of Finance is always dedicated to making our economy better, but the two main ingredients to that are time and determination.
I appreciate the criticism, as you're speaking your voice. Just be assured it's being fixed, and that you're not the only one being affected. Every country in the eWorld's having it's fair share of problems with the economy, with their citizens having to adjust.
If you have any more questions, Mansour, please feel free to leave them, and I'll hopefully be able to address them in my next article. This goes for everyone else as well. Oh, and first.

voted x2 - but all these spam articles are annoying .
Dont worry everyone. With Nick at my side we'll make sure everyone in the eWorld loves us. And if they dont, we'll just use a little Jedi mind trick to make them see things our way. 😉

tl; dr 😛?
You know, eAustralians went after each other like you wouldn't believe. Their forums and irc were filled with trolling, false accusations and cruel acts done for lulz. They were so busy fighting each other that they ended up with the enemy as their leader.
Now we have a couple jerks hanging around trying to stir up trouble (funny, I first met one of them while he was stirring up trouble in eAus ... hmmm). I have no issue laughing at them - they deserve our derision. Let's keep the people who deserve it as our targets, though. eSouth Africa is, by a large majority, level headed and mature. Let's not let those with image issues distract us from our goals and needs. Let's learn from eAus's mistake, not repeat it.
Stryke, I can tell you're doing a great job. I'm glad to have you in President's chair and I look forward to the great work you and your cabinet will do. Thanks for the update.
