Husband of radical environmentalist arrested.

Alec Bing, the husband of radical and outspoken environmentalist Ingrid Kang, has been arrested in the city of Rilanon, Christie Island after he attempted to block delegates from around the world in protest of Syrene's intentions to sell the mineral coltan to various nations.

Mr Bing was outside of the famous Grand Orient Hotel, where he and 100 others stood and waved placards opposing plans to sell off the coltan. Armed with a bullhorn, Mr Bing spoke against Syrene's alleged human rights abuses and lack of a sound environmental record. He also called for President Liang not to attend the banquet in Syrene.

Quote:
 
'DO NOT BUY COLTAN FROM SYRENE! OUR ENVIRONMENT IS ALREADY POLLUTED WITH ENOUGH CHEMICALS! THINK ABOUT THE EARTH'S ATMOSPHERE! KEEP THAT COLTAN IN THE GROUND WHERE IT BELONGS! RESPECT MOTHER NATURE! ANOTHER REASON NOT TO MINE COLTAN FROM SYRENE IS BECAUSE THEY ARE OFFICALLY LISTED BY AMNESTY BAI LUNG AS HAVING THE WORST HUMAN RIGHT ABUSES IN ANY COUNTRY IN THE EAST PACIFIC! THEY ALSO HAVE THE WORST CASES OF ANIMAL CRUELTY! A DOLLAR FOR THE SYRENERS IS A DOLLAR FOR MORE POLLUTION, MORE HUMAN RIGHTS ABUSES AND MORE ANIMAL CRUELTY! BOYCOTT SYRENE! PRESIDENT LIANG, IF YOU CAN HEAR THIS. DO NOT GO TO SYRENE. DO NOT ESTABLISH BILATERAL TRADES WITH A COUNTRY WITH POOR HUMAN RIGHTS RECORDS! LOVE EARTH, RECYCLE AS MANY MATERIALS AS YOU CAN!'

-Alec Bing


Shortly after delivering the emotional speech, he and twenty people were taken away by police for questioning.

Daenam to lay-off 5,000 workers.

Turkmenbari based Car manufacturer Daenam are to shed 5,000 jobs in an effort to save the company from bankrupcy.

The company had lost over BL$50 billion in profits during the fiscal year 2010-2011 and is projected to lose a further BL$75 billion during the fiscal year 2011-2012. Daenam, founded in 1965 by the Chen Jong Sun regime, it was sold to private investors in March 2009 by the then-Im administration.

A spokesman for Daenam has strongly regretted the mass redundancy but stated that it is necessary for the company to survive and be inovative in its manufacturing capacity. They have confirmed that they will repace the workers with robotic arms to build the cars.

Critics of the company, particularly from the left, have lambasted the company's decision to sack 5,000 workers. claiming that it won't save them from bankrupcy but merely delay the process due to poor management.

Car explosion kills 20 people in Uzabari car factory.

A car bomb has been detonated at the Daenam factory in Uzbari, killing 20 people and injuring 50 more.

Full details of the incident are currently unknown but eyewitnesses have recalled a black coloured Daenam 5 door hatchback rammed into the gates of the factory before it went on fire which was followed by a loud explosion. All of the deceased are employees of the factory.

Some people are speculating that the explosion might have been planned by a disgruntled worker but a spokesman for Daenam has dismissed the claims.

The explosion comes one day after the Turkmenbari based company has announced that it would shed 5,000 jobs and would invest in BL$250 million of robotic machinery.

The police are currently appealing to the public for further information.

Mother Green Piece posts video praising co-founder Alec Bing.

Representatives from Mother Green Piece have posted a video praising their leader Alec Bing, calling him a 'true hero to the environmental causes'.

In the short 3 minute video, they applauded Mr Bing for refusing to accept bail offered by the Armed Freedom Front of the Aramasy Nation, a paramilitary group who best known for their environmental activism, as well as using acts of violence against corporations. A lawyer representing AFFAN granted Mr Bing bail but he reportedly rejected it.

They have called for Mr Bing to continue with his hunger strike and fight for 'Mother Nature' and to maintain Mother Green Piece's independent nature, shunning any alliances with fellow environmentalist groups.

Mr Bing remains in Rilanon custody.

Kashgar Resistance Group posts video admitting Turkmenbari car factory attack.

Members from the terrorist group, the Kashgar Resistance Group (KRG) have posted a video on their website, fully admitting to masterminding the bomb blasts at the Daenam factory in Turkembari.

On August 12th, a car bomb was detonated at the front entrance of the Daenam factory, killing 23 people and injuring 50. Of those 23, 20 died at the scene while 3 more died of their injuries in hospital. It came a day after the company announced that it would lay off 5,000 workers after 2 consecutive years of falling profits. Executives of the company have previously dismissed claims that the bomb explosion was committed by a disgruntled employee.

Speaking in their native Kashgari while wearing balaclavas, the spokesmen of the KRG warned 'Bai Lungese occupiers' that they will see more explosions similar to the Daenam factory bomb attack until all Bai Lungese leave their country.

Bai Lungese mob attack Turkmenbari village killing 500.

Hundreds of Bai Lungese mobs attacked a village in the outskirts of Turkmebari, killing over 500 and seriously injuring 1,000 more.

The rioters surrounded and cordoned off the village of Turkovlieshkan, situated in northern Turkmenbari, to prevent anyone from escaping the 3,000 residents living there. Molotov cocktails were thrown on the roofs of the houses and fleeing Kashgar residents were stoned and stabbed by the angry mob. Over 500 Kashgars were found dead, nearly all of them died through stabbings or beatings.

Some witnesses reported that the crowd chanted out 'KILL ALL KASHGARS! KILL ALL KASHGARS!'.

The race riot ended within 1 hour after police quelled the riots sent in the riot squad.

The attack was said to be in response to the Kashgar Resistance Group posting a video proudly crediting the Daenam car factory bomb blasts which killed 23 people and injuring 50 more.

FoxTrot enters alliance with East Dannistrian Fuel Systems Ltd and DP Group plc. Announces bid to obtain coltan in Syrene.

Mining conglomerate FoxTrot has formally joined with East Dannistrian Fuel Systems Ltd and DP Group plc to form a new strategic partnership in effort to bid for coltan reserves in the state of Syrene currently vacated by Hewitt-Michaels Limited.

A spokesman for CEO Derek Ko, spoke favourably of the alliance, stating that forming a consortium would allow greater flexibility for future business deals between them and future clients. The spokesman also mentioned that the consortium is an important step to global expansion for the three companies.

The business partnership was met with mixed reactions. Those on the right spoke favourably of the alliance whilst the left spoke negatively against it. In fact, members from the radical environmentalist group Mother Green Piece gathered outside FoxTrot's HQ in Chen Tai Soon protesting against the company's plans to bring coltan into Bai Lung.

5 people arrested after attempted assault on President Liang.

Five people were arrested by police after they attempted to assault President Liang and made threatening comments towards him.

President Liang was heading his way to Wang Bin airport after embarking on a 3 day trip to the mainland, primarily meeting with the families of the Daenam car factory bomb blasts in Turkmenbari.

All of the five suspects are males and they all come from the same family. The youngest suspect is 18 and the oldest is 78. The five men allegedly told President Liang that if he 'comes back to the mainland, he would be a dead man'.

The youngest suspect was seen attempting to throw a punch at President Liang but failed to make contact. He was instantly subdued by the police.

All five men are currently held at the Talon Ma Police Station.

Serial manhole cover thief could be a member of Mother Green Piece.

Police have released a possible image of the suspect who is behind the theft of 50 manhole covers in Port To.

The suspect is a male, aged between 20-35, standing between 6'1" and 6'3" and has a large tattoo of a global on his right side of his neck. He usually wears a black hooded top and armed with a crowbar.

The first instance of the first manhole cover theft was reported on 5th January 2012. Police have initially considered the theft to be random.

However, more reports of manhole covers being stolen in Port To were reported on the 2nd February in which 3 were stolen. Since then, an average of 2 manholes were stolen a week as of August 2012. Police have sinced suggested that the perpatrator could be a member of the radical environmentalist group Mother Green Piece headed by couple Alec Bing and Ingrid Kang. Both have had run-ins with various authorities in the past.

Police have noted the manholes are usually stolen between the hours of Midnight and 5AM.

The suspect has yet to be apprehended.

Marxist MLAs storm out of Lower House in protest of coltan bid.

Marxist Party MLAs have stormed out of the Lower House in protest of the President's approval to allow private companies to bid for a foreign contract to gain access to coltan, a mineral used for computer circuits.

The Marxist Party leader, Jonnie Ting, has led the moves to stop Bai Lungese mining companies from importing the rare mineral, which is coming from the state of Syrene. In particular, Mr Ting expressed his concerns for the environment by extrapolating the minerals from underground, as well as the welfare of the miners.

Quote:
 
'We are currently at odds with the President's environmental position. He is merely interested in serving the interests of a handful of individuals who wield unprecedented amounts of power and money while the middle have barely any power because they are not as affluent as those above them. It is shocking that the president has allowed companies to import minerals at a time when we are facing budget deficits and record high trade deficit. The companies' bid to get access to coltan in Syrene will only worsen the trade deficit.

It is also imperative that the workers must also be capable of working in the most favourable conditions. A decent healthcare coverage, a maximum weekly hours, a livable working wage, unpaid for holdiay breaks and the right to form a trade union. The contract with the Syrene government does not allow any of these conditions.'

-Jonnie Ting, Leader of the Marxist Party

President Liang signs PORA.

President Liang has signed the highly controversial Political Organisation Reform Act 2012 after a lengthy fillibuster by the Labour opposition in both chambers of the Assembly.

PORA is one of the most outreaching powers granted to the executive branch. PORA will be made effective from August 2013, which would allow the President to shut down any political organisation which would openly glamourise extremist ideologies such as the Nationalist military junta.

Despite lengthy fillibuster by the Labour opposition, it was passed through the Reconcilliation process, which requires a 50+1 majority vote. All Labour and other parties voted against it in the lower house while the Conservative controlled Lower House overrode the coalition opposition in the Upper Senate.

Critics of PORA claim that President Liang would simply use the powers to shut down any Labour affiliated think tanks.

78% of readers favour 'flats for locals'.

A newly released BLCTV News poll show that over 78% of people limiting the sales of flats to non-Bai Lungese residents.

FoxTrot Senior Manager embroiled in cocaine scandal.

A Senior Manager for the Mining Conglomerate FoxTrot is facing heavy criticisms from the general public after it was emerged that he was secretly filmed using cocaine alongside two women believed to be prostitutes.

Jim Hong Ki-Hee, 45, was seen snorting the illegal substance in the Hotel Chen in the mainland capital of New Xinjiang. The two women was also seen taking cocaine alongside Mr Hong.

It is unknown who planted the secret camera although rumours are suggesting that it might have been the work of a freelance journalist who is trying to expose corruption in big business.

Mr Hong also made threatening statements towards trade unions, referring to trade union members as 'rats' and calling for the death of all 'trade union leaders' by lining them up against walls and be shot in the head. FoxTrot has a history of firing workers who are members of trade unions and even employees with relatives who are trade unionists.

The police are currently investigating the incident and an arrest warrant has been issued for Mr Hong.

FoxTrot Senior Manager hospitalised.

Jim Hong Ki-Hee, a Senior Manager for the Mining Conglomerate FoxTrot has been sent to the hospital after his butler found himself facing face down at his luxury apartment in the rich suburbs of Kazakhbari.

Mr Hong, 45, was recently facing heavy criticisms from the general public after it was emerged that he was seen taking cocaine with two women believed to be prostitutes at the Hotel Chen. The footage was taken from a secret camera.

FoxTrot CEO Terry Chen did not personally comment on the matter but a spokesman released a statement calling for all employees of FoxTrot to carry a high level of decorum both inside and outside the work place.

Mr Hong's butler found him convulsing and facing down in his own bedroom. He remains in a critical condition but is expected to recover tomorrow.

Bai Lungese disapora condemns former DNP leader race baiting comments.

Members of the Bai Lungese community living in For'af have unanimously condemned the former leader of the far-right Dannistrian National Party and right-wing activist Kelly Minn'ow-Jones for making a racially charged comment about the Bai Lungese.

Ms Jones was holding a PowerPoint presentation at the University of East Dannistaan to promote her flat-tax agenda. The former DNP leader is most famous for showing a postcard during her speaking tour, demonstrating the simple nature of her tax reform proposals.

However, she also began speaking against Bai Lungese immigration and making correlations between East Dannistaan's stagnant economy and the high level of Bai Lungese immigrants. She then characterised the Bai Lungese's role in the economy as 'useful as pigs rolling in mud'. The video of her speech was uploaded online on ThrushXpress video service and has over 500,000 views.

The Bai Lungese community were not alone in their criticisms. Even members of the DNP criticised her speech as being counterproductive and failing to attract swing voters.

DNP leader hits back at alleged race baiting comments.

The former leader of the far-right Dannistrian National Party Kelly Minn'ow-Jones has hit back at claims that she made a racially charged for making a racially charged comment at the Bai Lungese community living in For'af by comparing them to 'pigs rolling in mud'.

In an op-ed piece written by Ms Jones herself on the Dannistrian Sun, she has blamed 'excessive' economic planning by the Dannistrian Central government for East Dannistaan's large deficit.

Ms Jones also claimed that it was all caused by Bai Lungese immigration to East Dannistaan and 'spreading Communist filth' to the state. Ms Jones also cited a link between large number of welfare recipients and Bai Lungese immigration for worsening the state's budget deficit.

Ms Jones also attacked all centre-left Dannistrian newspapers for the controversy, calling them 'uber-left papers' and calling the Commission for Racial Equality Dannistaan (CRED) a 'far-left Stalinist organisation'.

She has ended the piece by calling for deregulation of the state's economy and to halt all Bai Lungese immigration whilst deporting those currently living in East Dannistaan.

A reporter from BBC News asked her 'pig rolling in mud' comment was harsh, she simply replied to him:

Quote:
 
'It is a pretty fair picture of what the Bai Lungese community really are.'

-Kelly Minn'ow Jones


UPDATE: A CRED protester was hospitalised after Ms Jones's bodyguard assault him outside the University of East Dannistaan.

Textile businessman calls welfare recipients to 'stop smoking and get a job'.

The CEO of Ying Guo Textiles Toby Chen has sharply criticised welfare recipients and has called for the Liang administration to cut and cap welfare, as well as cut taxes for everybody.

Mr Chen, who is the younger brother of Terry Chen, the CEO of Mining Conglomerate FoxTrot, has claimed in an OP-ED piece of South Bai Lung Post that billionaires like himself have done more to help the poor by investing money and creating jobs.

Mr Chen then characterised the unemployed as 'being lazy couch potatoes who spend their money on booze and cigarettes'.

Mr Chen has also called for the Liang government to abolish the minimum wage altogether and abandon the progressive taxation system and replace it with a flat tax of 10%. The Liang administration has yesterday proposed a 10% across the board tax cuts.

The comments made by Mr Chen were sharply criticised by the Labour Party as being 'inflammatory and highly devisive'. The Liang administration have yet to comment on Mr Chen's comments.

Marcel Chen released on bail.

Controversial and openly gay film director Marcel Chen has been released on bail for the second time this year after the then-Im administration has repeatedly denied granting any bail.

Mr Chen was arrested back in February for carrying a poster of Stalinist dictator Chen Jong Sun. Under the Anti-Dictator Act 2011, it is currently illegal to own images of Chen that is larger than an A4 sized print but perfectly legal if small than A4 under exceptional circumstances. Marcel Chen reportedly carried an A3 sized poster which violates the law. He was released on bail in the same month but was sent back to jail 24 hours later.

Since his arrest, Mr Chen's latest film REVOLT! REVOLVING! REVOLTING! was suspended. He will be allowed to film the remaining scenes from his 90 day schedule and he must return to jail once filming is completed.

Marxist Party MLA holds sustained demonstrations in Pyongjing market place.

Marxist Party MLAs and Senators have held a sustained demonstration at the famed Pyongjing Central Market Place in protest of President Liang's personal approval of allowing private mining companies to mine coltan in the nation of Syrene.

President Liang's decision was strongly criticised by the political left for being environmentally irresponsible. They contend that mining coltan would released harmful chemicals into the environment. However, the Conservative Party have released a statement defending the President's decision, citing a coltan trade deal agreement would create jobs in both countries.

Lead by their leader Jonnie Ting, they waved placards in the busy market capital including slogans like 'ALTERNATIVE ENERGY NOW' AND 'SYRENE COLTAN IS UNSUSTAINABLE'. Mr Ting spoke before a crowd of 50,000 calling for sustainable materials as a safe alternative to coltan.

BREAKING NEWS: 53 die in Syrene mine riots.

53 people have been killed and 200 more have been injured at a coltan mining site near Fort Prospect, Syrene.

The incident came when Syrene workers vocally objected to EFD using it's own non-unionised Bai Lungese workers over unionised Syrener counterparts. Both sides were armed with various mining tools and equipment and clashed violenty after a Bai Lungese worker tossed a molotov cocktail into a crowd, burning both Bai Lungese and Syrene workers.

A Syrener worker eventually drove a bulldozer into the Bai Lungese crowd and killed 10 Bai Lungese workers before he himself was killed.

A total of 53 men died on the site, 28 of the fatalities were Bai Lungese and 23 came from the Syreners.

Both President Liang and the leader of Syrene both condemned the violent clashes and has called for civility from both sides.

Textile businessman face further criticisms over controversial comments.

The CEO of Ying Guo Textiles Toby Chen is facing further criticisms from the general public and all left-leaning parties after he made a suggestion that Bai Lungese workers should be paid BL$2 or less per day. His comments follow a recent a controversial article last week where he called poor workers 'coddled, lazy drunks.'

Mr Chen, who co-founded Ying Guo Textiles in 2009, pointed to workers who make less than BL$2 as a model for economic competitiveness in job creation.

Quote:
 
'We must be realistic, not just promote class warfare. Indeed, if we competed at the East Pacific Hockey games as sluggishly as we compete economically, there would be an outcry.

The evidence is unarguable that [Bai Lung] is indeed becoming too expensive and too uncompetitive to do export- orientated business. Bai Lungese overseas, particularly in East Dannistaan want to work. Its workers are willing to work for less the equivalent of BL$2 per day. Such statistics make me worry for this country’s future.'

-Terry Chen


Mr Chen's comment, like with his previous statement, were condemned by left leaning political parties with the most vocifierous comments coming from the Marxist Party. In fact, the Marxist leader Jonnie Ting has renewed calls to impose maximum wages on CEOs like Mr Chen.

President Liang has also condemned Mr Chen's comment, calling it unpractical and out of touch with the Bai Lungese way of life.
