What was achieved in the past two months
Analia Arnheim
Want me to answer this question in one word? Seriously? I say: much.
Perhaps this is the time to stop blasting the government and start becoming a constructive opposition. Well, I see that this is like one-way love (best example is when you have a crush), but for the country, we are determined to work hard for her, even if the government is not asking for us to do so.
What was achieved in the past two months? Zero regions. Palawan has been occupied for 52 days, Luzon 50 days, and Mindanao 48 days to date. I have to say that, as a former President who brought the largest Congress membership this country had experienced since September 2012, this achievement by the past two administrations is indeed a great one. They have actually equaled my first term, though the difference was, the Treasury and the orgs were penniless during my time.
I applaud that, despite breaking with NaN a month ago, our government made a sensible choice to team up again with Malaysia to fight Pakistan and regain at least one region.
The Malaysian government presents that from the RW in Sabah and Palawan, around 1.5 billion damage was done on the Pakistan shield.
What the Malaysian government also hails is their provision of supplies to their own citizens during the Sabah RW. Logical enough, Pakistan also provided supplies for their own citizens. How about the Philippines? We begged to disagree with these two that government supply is needed to inflict damage. A very brave experiment, and it apparently is working.
We would need at least 10 resistance wars just to break the Pakistan shield. Perhaps an eleventh to secure at least one region. Since 24 hours cooling time is required before another resistance war be organized in the same region, that would mean at least 20 days from now, or up to November 5 (which was the Presidential elections already). 10,000 PHP is required to organize one RW. Ten RW would require 100,000 PHP. Definitely our country accounts can handle it.
Well, Pakistan only needed six wars to take over the Philippines: 3 RW and 3 NE. We can definitely do the same, perhaps even better.
Definitely Pakistan and Indonesia are such warmongers that they cannot be dealt upon by our government to release at least one region for Congress. We cannot appease them through diplomacy, so do this by force instead. That's what I see of the government today, since that is the logical thing to do.
If I remember it right, when Baz was my Minister of Defense, he backed out from the idea of liberating Luzon shortly after the RW there began last July. That is indeed a logical thing to do. He's so good he made a great excuse for us to escape the wrath of China. What I learned from him is to use diplomacy. With this diplomacy, we managed to have regions and Congress.
In the past two months as well, the Philippines had sanctioned trade embargo on three countries: Spain (TWO, rank 5), Albania (rank 30), and Croatia (rank 21). These countries may have done severe damage to our country so as to compel the government to do such things. Surely personal or even nationality issues are out in the national scale when it is for the good of the country.
The government had explained this acts clearly, really. And I quote: " "
Quoting again our current President: "Bla bla bla... Im in this game more then you have years old. And with MY money i can do whatever i want.
Trust me, i dont need philippines gold from tourtament.: ) already have enough"
Baz, according to his profile, was born on October 23, 2012. Well, I was born here October 6. Not really a big issue, anyway. He definitely had no Wiki entry as well to prove his claim, but we can just assume that he's saying what is correct.
With 329 Battle Hero medals (equivalent to around 658 gold reward), it can be said that he really does not need the gold we won in the tournament. I mean, he said so himself. He does not have any accomplices that helped him win the presidency anyway. Clearly he and his predecessor, agent of chaos, is innocent.
The PACMAN HQ, which the current government decided to use in earning from the monetary market instead of the Bank of Philippines (or any other national org that can be accessed by the next President), is really a good experiment that is worth doing. A staggering 2,900 gold is supposed to be in government care basing on the donation laws passed when Congress lasted. If you divide the money of Baz's personal org (306,145 PHP) to the floor price of gold (200 PHP), that will amount to more or less 1,530 gold. Zero gold is on sale. Thus, a total of 1,530 gold. It is good in the sense that since only Baz and his associates had access to that org, you can expect that the money will not be prone to corruption. These foreigners had no history of doing so anyway. Also, Baz said it himself, or at least he said it for himself alone. No biggie.
Surely, the other 1,370 gold (using 200 PHP as base, 274,000 PHP) had already been given as reward to those who fought hard in the past two tournaments. They deserve a return anyway. I myself can attest that I received zero from the government in any form there is. I did not fight hard enough anyway, thus putting me in the Top 50 national fighters in those two tournaments.
I also believe that the 10,000 PHP used for sponsoring the Palawan RW was from these funds. The zero supply experiment was so helpful in the past RW that almost all Philippine citizens managed to actually be in the Top 5 fighters in every battle (in my case, only four fought for the Philippines).
Overall, the past two governments did a really good job. We have maintained, even grew, the number of our citizens (actually we grew from 355 to 295) and even put up a good fight in the past RW. The market prices here have been very competitive. Many citizens envy our nation. We have now the guts to impose several trade embargoes. Perhaps these are the two best administrations this year. Keep up the good work government guys. We are always here to help if you wanted it.
For unity, for stability, for progress

Voted
hope we can work together for both nation benefit..we can be a good allies..
Malaysians and Filipinos are relative to each other, both in reality and in the eWorld... Culture and beliefs may separate us in reality, but our close blood-ties unite us; like a family 😃
epakistan put Combat order at sabah
Just the information I was looking for.

"Definitely Pakistan and Indonesia are such warmongers that they cannot be dealt upon by our government to release at least one region for Congress. We cannot appease them through diplomacy, so do this by force instead. That's what I see of the government today, since that is the logical thing to do."
Well, we talked to them but they didn't want to give back any region. And it really is impossible to have an RW won because the Pakistani shield is about 15m+.
"Baz, according to his profile, was born on October 23, 2012. Well, I was born here October 6. Not really a big issue, anyway. He definitely had no Wiki entry as well to prove his claim, but we can just assume that he's saying what is correct."
BaZ is already a player here in eRepublik during the times of Chopp and the Serbians' reign here. They moved away. BaZ got tired of his old account and decided to create a new one.
"Perhaps this is the time to stop blasting the government and start becoming a constructive opposition."
"It is good in the sense that since only Baz and his associates had access to that org, you can expect that the money will not be prone to corruption. These foreigners had no history of doing so anyway. Also, Baz said it himself, or at least he said it for himself alone. No biggie."
Here's my two cents for you: Look in a mirror first before you look at others.
Also, let me ask you the same thing. What did you achieve in your three month term?
I sure saw Al Raposas publish a lot of articles during his term. I've also been able to receive battle supplies.
Can you honestly say the same with the current administration?
I must say, I agree with DragoonXRyu.
Well, first of all, I only had two terms.
Second, why break your silence now when I'm posting an article? Of course, as constructive opposition, you have to look at both sides of the coin, their side and ours. If you want to, present their side. You worked for the government before anyway.
Third, I have this belief that not all foreigners are bad. For me, Baz is a hardworking citizen. He has too many things to do besides being President. His experience in fighting around the world precedes him. However, if they had been just as transparent as I were during my two terms, then the people, including myself, will not be speculating too much. ePece blasted me before to be transparent enough.
Fourth, when I hinted that we may leave NaN, you rejected this side of the story. But when the foreigners decided we leave NaN, you did not even show a sign of protest (at least, publicly). Why is this so? Are we playing personality politics here? Do you think by shifting sides you will eventually be President again or what have you? We must work for the country, not for self alone.
Fifth, I have made a whole article in the wiki summarizing what my two terms had achieved. I posted an article every week summarizing what the my administration did. If I remember it right, you are one of the least performing Cabinet members at that time. If you say that my past two terms did nothing, you are also partly to blame.
Sixth, concerning Pakistan and Indonesia, I know they are looking out for their national interests before others. I mean, what are national governments supposed to do? And we should be looking out for our national interests, too. We have all the gold and money that my past administration had not got hands on. I even used my own money to launch a supply program.
Lastly, you were President in the past as well. Before you argue on achievement in the national level, I will redirect the question back to you: What have you achieved in your term?
I am just waiting for you to crack in an article like this, then I will talk.
We work quietly but with progress, unlike a loud term but with little work done. Oh and a sidenote ePece is leaving ePH. So I guess you're happy that we're lessening in our population.
I did protest, but it was too late. The proposal was already there and I couldn't do anything but wait for the end of the clock. I talked to him for reconsideration but I found a better idea so I abandoned my point.
Least performing... Ah yes... What else would you think the Minister of Culture would do? Post battle orders and give tutorials? And when I was the MoD, what should I do? The lack of activity did not encourage much to get supplies and since there were no important battles, why make an order? I was just did what I had to do.
In 10 days, well let's see:
- Almost talked some sense into the Chinese and Indonesian CPs
- Did all of the work for my cabinet
- Philippines in NaN Alliance
- Supported some organizations around the globe
And I just noticed, almost every time you are not the President, you work as the fault-finder... just saying...
Ooh, and does anyone want to join Saligan? Or is it Junior's Initiative now?
Definitely you are now playing personality politics. This is not constructive. Every administration had its own weak points. Pointing them out is constructive for the future administrations.
I already support new RW at sabah (1st person)...Please fight at sabah on friday..target to cut down 2 billion or more shield..later will fight at Palawan again
Hail ePhiliphine
Hail eMalaysia
