Anti-Liang protests dwindling.

Pro-Democracy protests are decreasing dramatically week by week, according to police reports.

On average, 750,000 particpants took part in the protests each week with the 2nd to 3rd week peaking at 2.5 million people.

Last weeks protest saw only 300,000 people taking part, less than half of the average attendance.

Various factors for the decline include the use of military to quell protests, lack of enthusiam for a prolonged protests and complaints from the general public who view the protests in a negative light.

Despite the diminishing numbers, Vice President of BLFS Al Yu Cheng has vowed to keep the demonstrations going. He further accused President Liang of buying voters to vote Conservative.

Conservative Senator-elect: We will push forward pro-business bill in my first day in office.

Senator-elect Tien Er has vowed to push forward as many 'pro-business' bills into the Senate in his first day as Senator.

The outspoken Conservative, who is also a True Conservative Movement follower, said that pro-business legislation would include the banning of trade unions, 'employment flexibility laws', lower income taxations, abolition of capital gains and corporation taxes, making Mandarin Chinese the sole language of Bai Lung, the abolition of universal healthcare and the minimum wage.

Mr Tien has argued in his blog thet abolishing most government programs and deregulating the finance sector would make Bai Lung a properous and competitive nation.

A poster once asked Mr Tien what would be the ideal rate of taxation for Bai Lung, he simply replied '10% flat rate, no deductions, no exceptions. All income should be reported in a postcard.'

Mr Tien's proposals were strongly condemned by the Labour party and some members of the Conservatives themselves. Both major parties called the pro-business agenda 'extreme', with most of the criticism being direct towards the abolition of the minimum wage.

Mr Tien has hit back a critics, arguing that 'it's better than the status quo, which is digging us deeper into debt'.

Labour-Conservative mudslinging continues as former PM criticises current PM.

The war of words between the Labour and Conservative parties rages on as former Prime Minister Minister Li An Ying has criticised current PM Frederic Lin for not strongly repudiating the proposals of the more hardline Conservatives, many of whom have been elected into office in last weeks legislative election.

Despite the increased majority for the Conservatives, the election also ushered in a more hardline breed of Conservative politicians, who are disillusioned with the centrist policies and tone of the PM. Some are even going as far to strongly consider a leadership challenge and elect a leader who reflects their own political positions.

Mr Li, who ruled as PM from 2009-2011 under a Labour controlled house, has criticised the leadership of PM Lin as 'tepid', partly due to Lin's lack of response to a series of 'pro-business' bills proposed by MLA elect Tien Er which includes a flat income rate of 10%, abolition of the minimum wage and work regulations.

Quote:
 
'The Prime Minister has failed in his duties to uphold his own political agenda by allowing a faction of his party to run the Conservatives and claim it to be the official policy. He has not repudiated them at all to date. The toxic policies of removing the minimum wage, work place regulation and impose a 10% flat rate tax is an economic disaster. Is Mr Lin OK with allowing the working individual to work 100 hours a day for very low wages? Or is he going to distance himself from the right wing extremists who are hijacking his party?'

-Li An Ying


When asked on the anti-Liang demonstrations, Mr Li remained neutral on the matter, saying he does not oppose nor support the protests.

Calypso song reaches 25 million units sold.

Take Your Money, a Calypso inspired song that is seen by many Dannistrians as being racist, has sold over 25 million units in Bai Lung, making it the best selling single in the nation.

Written and sung by DJ-Song Writer Jay J. Ahn, the song was intended to be tongue in cheek and was making fun of Dannistrians and Bai Lungese alike but Dannistrians did not react to the song in a positive light. After learning of the contents of the lyrics, several Bai Lungese shops in For'af were burned and looted.

The song made its debut on 13th October and aired to several Chinese language radio stations in Bai Lung and Dannistaan. The song received positive reviews in Chinese language papers.

The song reached number 1 in the singles charts but sold only 650,000 units, typical of a number one single in Bai Lung. After the controversy, the song sold 12.5 million units in that week, breaking records for the best selling single. The 3rd week was also a strong week for the song, with 10 million units sold and retaining the number 1 spot.

Holding the number one spot for the 4th running week, Take Your Money saw 2 million units of that song being sold last week.

Choi shuts down last abortion clinic.

The city of Choi has shut down the last abortion clinic, making it the first ever city to close all abortion clincs in the country.

When reporters from the Choi Daily asked Mayor Ling Da Shui why he put forth that ordinance, he responded that he was simply thinking about what types of business he didn't want in Choi. He believes that abortion clinic shouldn't exist because they bring 'drama' to Choi.

Quote:
 
'We are a peaceful city and we do not want protesters of any kind.'

-Ling Da Shui


Abortion is a highly contentious issue in the city with another clinic being bombed in 2010. Mayor Ling has made the abolition of all abortions in Choi a flagship policy during his time in office.

Anti-Liang protests further fade in numbers.

Pro-Democracy activists have suffered a further blow to their cause as the average number of attendees have further dropped in numbers compared to last week.

Police figures released shows that only 175,000 people took part in the anti-Liang demonstrations.

The group have experienced a further dent to their campaign as the Pyongjing council have agreed to remove the remaining barriers in Xin Wangjiao. The trickiest barriers lie on the southern part of Dongguan Street where a 15 metre steel barrier with barbed wiring covers the area.

Current trends in drop show that the demonstration will be reduced to hundreds by the start of December.

Vice President of BLFS Al Yu Cheng has rejected the figures and has re-iterated his message to keep the protests alive for as long as possible until Liang steps down as president.

Dongguan Street barrier removed.

Police have successfully removed the most trickiest barrier set up by pro-democracy activists in the shopping district of Xin Wangjiao.

The barrier, which consists of a 15 metre long steel barrier with barbed wiring, covers much of Dongguan Street. It was one of the main sites of the protests.

Business owners have long complained of the presence of the group and have charged that their protests have caused business activities to plummet with some shops reported a 50% drop in sales.

10 people from the movement were arrest by police who were preventing authorities from taking down the barriers.

Police thwarts Assembly building break in.

Police have prevented protesters from attempting to break into the entrance of the Bai Lungese Assembly.

The masked men, who are purpotedly from the pro-democracy movement, tried to hurl bricks at the entrance but police tackled would be vandals to the ground. Police were present at the front entrance after receiving an anonymous tip-off of a break in on Wednesday morning.

No one in the group were able to damage the front entrance as they could go no further than the steel fencing, some 10 metres away from the main entrance. Only erected last week, the steel fences were placed in response to previous break-ins. Bollards and metal studs on the concrete floors accompany the fences to prevent potential break-ins with vehicles and loitering.

20 people were arrested on the scene with another individual arrested in an apartment in Lian Mao Street when another tip-off claimed that the individual had planned to drive a 10 ton truck into the entrance.

Pro-democracy protesters have condemned the forced break-in of the building and have denied claims that the men are part of their movement. Vice President of the BLFS Al Yu Cheng has called the men 'criminals'.

The increased presence of police were also prompted by the movement's plans to protest closer to the Assembly building.

President Liang and PM Lin have spoken to each other over the phone to discuss further plans to fortify the security of the Assembly building.

Protests cost economy, think-tank reports.

A right of centre think-tank has claimed that the on-going protests in the capital will cause the local economy to shrink by 25%.

The Centre for Fiscal Activities (CFA) has reported that overall sales in High Street shops have dropped by 50% between September and the start of November whilst the construction industry have also dropped by 15% as construction companies were deterred by the presence of the pro-democracy movement as well as being physically prevented from finishing work of various high rise building.

The CFA have also reported that if the economic activities do not pick up by the start of next year, then the city will be in recession.

Two boys stabbed to death.

The attack was the third to take place against children in the capital in recent weeks, after another man stabbed to death five pupils as they went to school last month.

True Conservative Movement politician: All abortions will be outlawed within 2 years.

A Conservative elect MLA has claimed that a Conservative controlled Assembly, coupled with a Liang administration, would totally ban all abortions by the end of 2016.

Kwang He, who won his East Ba Namcheng seat early this month, has proposed a law which would phase out all kinds of abortions. In proposing the Save Bai Lungese Babies Act, he claimed that 'usual' abortions would be banned by July 2015, abortions for rape and incest banned by December 2015 and abortions to save the mother's life by December 2016.

Mr Kwang, a True Conservative Movement follower, has said that protecting all kinds of life is a virtue within Bai Lungese culture. He also branded the pro-democracy movement as 'baby killers'.

President Liang: Abortion bill not currently main priority.

President Liang has made an official response to the anti-abortion bill proposed by Conservative MLA elect Kwang He, saying that it is not a high priority in his agenda for the country.

Speaking on BLCTV News, the President has sympathised with the idea of protecting the life of the unborn but has called such laws 'unnecessary' and placing abortion laws above economic policies as wrong.

Quote:
 
'It is in his [Kwang He] right to express his concern for the unborn. I sympathised with that idea. We should protect the life of the unborn as we need more children to continue our legacy. However, he is making abortion a national priority when in fact it is our economy that should be prioritised. It is simply wrong to put forward abortion policy over economic policy. He needs to get his priorities right.'

-President Liang


Several atni-abortion activists, many of whom are part of the True Conservative Movement, gathered outside the Assembly building in support of Mr Kwang's bill. They linked the pro-democracy activists to abortion and murder.

Three demonstrators arrested for Assembly arson attempt.

Three activists, who are purportedly from the pro-democracy movement, have been arrested by police for attempting to set fire to the Assembly building.

The three men, aged between 20 and 25, were seen carrying matches, fuel containers and hankerchiefs. Two of the trio doused the Eastern area of the building with petrol whilst the third man did the same in the western area.

None of the three men successfully lit up the petrol as police tackled them to the ground.

Earlier on this week, President Liang has approved spending increases, totalling BL$16 million, on improving the security of the building. Airport-style security will be in place for those who are entering the building and 25 more security staff will be hired.

Two protesters shot after humiliation attempt.

Two activists from the pro-democracy movement have been fatally shot by police after they tried to drag a Conservative MLA into a dumpters, a Chief Constable spokesperson has said.

A pro-democracy demonstration took part 100 yards away from the Assembly building despite the removal of barriers on New Wangjiao district.

A pair of activists have brought in a rubbish dumpster to humiliate Conservative and pro-Liang MLAs in public.

Darrell Ai Sha, an outspoken Conservative, turned up at Gong Ki Street, where the demonstration took place, to confront the protesters.

The pair, both surnamed Chung, tried to grab Mr Ai and toss him into the dumpster but armed police shot both men in the chest. Both men died at the scene.

A spokesperson for Chief Constable Cliff Dang has confirmed that 12 shots were fired and no one else was injured.

In addition, there will be no investigation as the two officers protecting Mr Ai were doing their job 'properly'.

'City of Cui' renaming possible, TCM activist.

A leading activists from the True Conservative Movement has claimed that the city of Choi is on the verge to be renamed officially to the Mandarin Chinese name of Cui.

Tian Lifei, from Choi himelf, has told BLCTV News that a referendum will be held on whether the name of the city should be renamed to Cui.

The move comes after a series of Pro-Sinophone policies were implemented by mayor Ling Da Shui over a period of 1 year. Mr Ling himself has expressed a desire for the city to be renamed to Cui.

Several MLAs, including Conservatives, have warned that the referendum could be illegal as the renaming of cities can only be done in the Assembly.

Fifteen more pro-democracy activists arrested.

Fifteen more activists from the Pro-Democracy movement have been detained by police after another night of clashes.

The group brought in bricks and stones to smash the windows of police vehicles. Some of the men sprayed graffiti on the cars, signalling their opposition to authority.

Five of the fifteen men were carrying knives and machetes.

The BLFS has denied that the men were part of the movement and were simply 'criminals'.

Police hunt for gunmen.

Police are searching for two masked gunmen who shot and wounded three people with air guns in a night-time attack in Chongkim City.

The incident occurred when an 22 year old surnamed Chen was chatting with his friends near the Bao Bao Housing estate when three masked men carrying air guns ran out and opened fire without warning shortly after midnight yesterday.

Chen and his friends fled and were chased by the gunmen, who continued to fire at them.

A 25 year old woman surnamed Yang was walking in the area when the pair spotted her and shot her.

A third person, surnamed Lin, challenged the pair but he too was shot repeatedly before the men escaped from the scene.

Chen and Yang managed to escape the gunmen but suffered injuries after being shot multiple times.

Chen suffered injuries to the torso, both legs and left arm. Ho suffered minor injuries near his forehead and neck. Lin suffered injuries to the neck, left hand and right knee.

All three were discharged from hospital yesterday afternoon.

Police searched the area but could not find the gunmen.

The Chongkim council has agreed to allow Chongkim criminal investigation team to analyse CCTV footage captured from near the crime scene.

250 cases of police brutality rejected.

The Court of Appeals have rejected over 250 cases pertaining to police brutality on pro-democracy demonstrators.

According to the latest statistics published by the Liang administration, most of the cases were specifically related to police using trunctions to beat up activists, including those who did not actively clash with authorities.

Many of the victims have demanded compensation for their injuries. Some of the lawsuits demand compensation of up to BL$100,000.

Judges from the second most senior in Bai Lung have rejected every single cases, citing lack of evidence.

BLFS Vice President Al Yu Cheng has told BLCTV News that he will take all 250 cases to the High Court and ensure that every single victim will get their compensation in full. He also claims that the compensation will be cheaper than the cost of Liang's gerrymandering policies.

Quote:
 
'A dollar, two hundred, 1 million, we will make sure that every single victim will get compensation in full. If everyone is award 100 grand, so be it. 100 grand per victim will still be far cheaper in costs than the BL$100 million gerrymandering plans put by Liang.'

100K Compensation Petition gathers 10,000 signatures.

A petition which calls for the Liang government to give BL$100,000 for every lawsuits pertaining to police brutality on pro-democracy activists has gained over 10,000 signatures.

The petition was launched yesterday afternoon and within 2 hours, the petition has already gathered over 6,000 signatures.

If all 250 cases ended with a $100,000 settlement, the amount would total to BL$25 million.

BLFS President Rick Teng Ma and Vice President Al Yu Cheng reacted positively to the number of signatures. They called for more signatures from the public to demand the government to award compensation for the 250 persons and they called for more compensation to the unreported cases.

Members of the True Conservative movement have accused the BLFS of demanding entitlements.

Airport-style security seen in Assembly building.

Hand-held and walk through metal detectors have been seen inside the Assembly building, marking a new start for heightened security at the legislative building.

Politicians and visitors alike were informed by security staff to take off metallic objects which would set off the detectors. Those who are not authorised to visit or are unwilling to co-operate with staff will not be permitted to enter the building.

The Liang administration has yet to make a formal announcement on the heightened security.

Liang administration formally announces completion of Airport-style security in Assembly building.

The Liang administration has formally announced that 'Airport-Style' security implemented inside the Assembly building has now been complete.

The changes means that the security is the most tightest to date.

President Liang has told MLAs and Senators to comply with the new rules including passing through metal detectors and forbidding them to bring in their own cutlery. All cutlery provided at the canteen will now be plastic, replacing stainless steel.

A poster with all the relevant rules and regulations will be posted outside the building and pamphlets will be issued at public libraries to inform the general public about the changes.

Notable changes to the Assembly include:


  • Stainless steel cutlery banned from the premise. Plastic cutlery will be provided in canteens.
  • Visitors to the building will be limited to Wednesday-Friday, a reduction of 2 days. Visitors will be allowed to tour and/or lobby politicians for 2 hours maximum for each open day.
  • Steel gratings are placed between the windows to prevent breaking of glass.
  • Increased number of bollards. 20 more added to the Western and Eastern parts of the building.
  • All visitors will be recorded with picture and name for reference.


Human rights groups in Bai Lung have attacked the changes, calling their right to lobby politicians a violation of human rights. They announce plans to force the government to remove many of the security measures.

30 councils request airport-style security for council buildings.

A record 30 Councils from towns and cities have request 'Airport-Style' security as seen in the Assembly building in Pyongjing, BLCTV News has reported.

They have wrote letters to President Liang to allot them a budget which would implement the same kind of security as seen in the capital with walk-through and hand-held metal detectors seen at the entrance.

The moves comes in response to the violent protests by some pro-democracy demonstrators throughout Bai Lung although most of the protests have taken place in the capital itself.

The city of Choi, known for its very conservative mayor, has implemented 'Phase one' of their own security by forbidding anyone from bringing their own cutlery, including plastic knives. All cutlery must be used at the in-house canteen and must be disposed in a special 'cutlery disposal bin'.

There is no current correlation between the cities and political affiliation as both Labour and Conservative controlled councils have requested additional money in equal measures.

Airport style security further seen in tower apartments.

In the midst of several councils wishing to implement tight security in their buildings, at least five privately owned condominiums have copied the trend started by the Assembly building in the capital by placing airport style security.

The five buildings in the affluent Liu Lien District have placed walk-through metal detectors at the entrance. Those who wish to bring cutlery must show it to security guards for clearence. Guards use their discretion to permit or reject the bringing of kitchen knives.

The posh condos previously had 10 guards patrolling the area. According to The Property Magazine, the number guards present doubled to 20.

Several residents of the condos have blamed the activities of the pro-democracy activists for the reason to tighten security in their homes.
