Conservative leader Frederic Lin becomes 2nd Prime Minister.

Conservative leader has been sworn today at 0900 EPT at the House of Representatives by the Speaker of the House. He will be the 2nd Prime Minister of Bai Lung since the fall of the Chenite and Nationalist governments 4 years ago.

Today marks the first time of cohabitation where the President is from a different political party than the majority of the member of the Parliament. President Im is a member of the Labour Party.

In his inaugural speech, Prime Minister Lin promises to work alongside President Im in the best interest of the country.

Quote:
 
"I pledge to work alongside the President in best interest of the country. We are still a nascent nation and I wish to resolve our differing ideologies through common sense solutions. This is country does not want to go back into the wilderness of unstable governments after the other. We are civilized society and we solve problems with the pen and paper over the sword..."


He also congratulated former Prime Minister Li An Ying for his showmanship and courage.

Quote:
 
"Recently departed Prime Minister Li has shown courage and a real gentlemen for showmanship. His calm composure will be looked upon with immense amounts of respect."

-Frederic Lin


A poll held by Xin Hua Daily gives 2/3rds of reader favouring cohabitation.

5 arrested in annual Bai Lungese booze fest.

5 key organisers of the annual alcohol fest has been arrested on suspicion of manslaughter.

The 41st annual, held on 22nd February, is infamous for hosting a competition which involves participants drinking 3 bottles of Wújí (无极) spirit or Limitless in English. The alcoholic beverage is well known for it's high alcohol content of 65%. However, the legendary alcoholic beverage's content itself been overshadowed by it's cheaper imitations which contains an alcohol by volume content of up to 95%.

105 people have died in this years event, making it the most deadliest event since 1990. Last year, 63 people died from alcohol poisoning.

There has been strong attempts to outlaw this event but in November 2010, the judges of the Bai Lungese High Court have decreed that the Alcohol Personal Misuse Act 2010, passed in July last year, as unconstitutional. The judges conducted a failed coup in the following December, resulting in the deaths of the judges including Chief Justice Kim Ae-Wu.

Prime Minister Frederic Lin has promised to send a new bill into congress which would ban the event from 2012. A spokesman for President Im has confirmed that the President will not veto such a bill, citing support from within his own party.

Limit Welfare Act dies in Senate.

A major bill passed by the Conservative controlled lower house has been defeated in the Labour controlled upper house.

The Limit Welfare Act, proposed by Conservative Prime Minister Frederic Lin, is one of several major shake ups proposed by the Lin agenda since his party has taken control of the lower house in January this year. Amongst some of his other proposals includes lowering the top margin income tax from 50% to 35% and across the board tax cuts, reducing capital gains tax by 3%, cutting gasoline duty by 10 cents, increasing military spending by 15% and increasing retirement age to 70.

Mr Lin’s proposals are praised by many within his own party for adopting a more moderate, centrist tone in comparison to his staunchly conservative, right wing predecessor Stephen T. Ding, in which the latter criticised the Frederic Lin agenda as being ‘too far to the left’. On Friday, Mr Ding proposed his own alternative manifesto including strict flat rate income tax of 10% for all earners, abolishing capital gains tax and corporate tax, increase military spending by 50%, abolish all welfare, introduce school vouchers and to abolish the Bai Lung Universal Health Care Act 2009, calling it ‘socialised medicine’ and 'a breach of individual liberty and personal responsibility’.

The welfare reform bill would have established a ‘universal credit’ benefit system, which is time limited to 26 weeks for all recipients. The aim for time limited welfare is to encourage those on welfare to seek employment rather than rely on the state for money.

The bill was voted on a party line, with all Conservatives voting for the bill and Labour voting against it. The smaller parties also joined with Labour to vote against this bill but this grand coalition was not enough to overcome the 257 Conservative MPs compared to 241 MPs (1 was absent). Labour backbenchers have blasted the welfare reform bill as being ‘insensitive to those who are genuinely seeking employment.‘

When the bill was put through the Senate, again, it was voted by party lines. The Labour controlled Senate, coupled with an alliance with the Marxists, Greens and Democrats prevented the bill to be sent to the Presidential Office Building.

President Im has stated that he would veto the bill if it passes through both chambers of Parliament.

BREAKING NEWS: PRESIDENT IM SIGNS EXECUTIVE ORDER TO PLACE TEMPORY MORATORIUM ON OPERATION MAINLAND FREEDOM.

President Im has signed an executive order which calls for a temporary ceasefire in the Bai Lungese mainland with the last round the clock bombings to be conducted on 10th March.

According to spokesman of the president, this is done in response to growing frustration amongst the Bai Lungese public. Many residents of the mainland are reportedly unhappy with the constant sirens warning of imminent bombings in their area.

President officially signed an executive order to start round the clock bombings in key Kashgar neighbourhoods on 31st August 2010. The original goal of Operation Mainland Freedom was to destroy key Kashgar Liberation Front bases in Uzbari but this was later expanded so that KLF bases in other predominately Kashgar cities were targeted too.

Lasting over 6 months, 23,000 Kashgars have died in this military operation. KLF leader Bashir Farabhazi is yet to be found.

President Im has not ruled out re-instating Operation Mainland Freedom but at the same does not rule out face to face talks with spiritual leader Supoorimat Barkediev.

Stephen T. Ding agrees to accept out of court settlement.

Former Conservative Leader Stephen T. Ding has agreed to accept out of court settlements from a woman who accused him of raping him back in 2010.

The 50 year old leader was banned from running office during the 2010 mid-term election in accordance to Section 2, Clause 2 of the Bai Lungese constitution which stipulates that:

Quote:
 
"No Person shall be a Member of Parliament who shall not have attained to the age of 21 years, and have been a citizen of Bai Lung for 10 years, and has no conviction record nor is deemed a suspect, and who shall not, when elected, be an Inhabitant of the District which he shall be chosen."


The actual amount given to Mr Ding is currently unknown but he has promised that he would would no longer pursue his defamation case against Ms Wie An Ying.

When asked if he will run for public office again for 2012, he simply replied ‘Yes I will.’

Welfare reform bill vetoed by President.

An amended version of the welfare reform bill proposed by Conservative Prime Minister Frederic Lin has been vetoed by President Im after it was passed through both chambers of Parliament.

The welfare reform bill re-titled as Personal Responsibility And Work Opportunity Act extended time limits for benefits to 18 months and offers the individual BL$200 in tax credits for wo-rk training. In contrast to the Limit Welfare Act, it received some bipartisan support from the Labour party. The votes in the Senate were very crucial when 26 of Labour MPs decided to vote against the party line giving the vote tally as 137-88 in favour of the modified version of the bill.

Once the bill was passed in both chambers, President Im vetoed the bill. He explains his reason for such veto:

Quote:
 
”This welfare reform bill placed before me at the presidential palace, is simply unfair and unjust for the genuinely needy claimant. I cannot find within myself to punish those who are actively seeking work in the most honest way possible and I will not tar all job seeking claimants as some kind of beggar. No matter how long or short the limit, I will never sign any future legislation related to welfare reform.“


Despite the President’s veto, the Conservative Party has vowed to override that veto by attempting to garner support from across the aisle in both chambers.

Frederic Lin aides poisoned in restaurant.

Several aides to Conservative Prime Minister Frederic Lin has been poisoned at the Guangcheng Restaurant in New Jian Sha Zui.

PM Lin’s 20 aides were eating at the restaurant until 12 of them complained of severe headaches and then falling unconscious. Mr Lin was not in the restaurant at the time of the incident as he was speaking to constituents in his district although his wife was inside the restaurant. She is reported to be safe.

The NBLPF have cordoned off the area to look for suspicious signs of an assassination attempt. Within minutes, police have found remnants of a white powdery substance, the same kind of poison which was used to assassinate former interim admin Kim Ki Moon in 2007 by rival candidate Yao Ma. Mr Ma later committed suicide and was never charged. Dannistrian General Duh’rahn N’outah was nearly poisoned when an assassin also tried to conduct an assassination attempt using this same method.

Both Labour and Conservative politicians have widely condemned today’s incident. President Im has offered his condolences to Lin’s aides and wished all 12 a speedy recovery.

Stephen T. Ding officially drops lawsuit.

Stephen T. Ding has confirmed today that he would no longer persue a defamation case against Wie An Ying.

The former Conservative Party leader was accused last year of raping a then-22 year old banker Wie after bite marks were found on the 51 year old’s lower neck. Mr Ding has always maintained that the bites were the result of his youngest son playing around.

Acquitted on 29th December 2010, Mr Ding filed a lawsuit on Ms Wie for defamation. The actual amount used to pay Mr Ding out of court is currently unknown.

Local councillor resigns over video leak.

A local councillor representing Port To has stood down after a video featuring him was leaked online and has become an internet sensation.

Johnny Ko Jia Tung, a Conservative, came under immediate fire from anti-drug groups and from within all major political parties when footage showing Mr Ko, 47, snorting a white line across a transparent coffee table several times with two unidentified women watching him on as he was insufflating the illicit substance.

Mr Ko has confirmed to the press that he did indeed take part in the drug taking binge but has repeatedly denied that it took place in his own home. At the same time, he refused to reveal of the place which he took the drugs. Possession of cocaine bears a minimum sentence of 8 years and/or $250,000 maximum fine.

Mr Ko has stated that he would stand down as a councillor with immediate effect.

Conservative Party leader Frederic Lin has told the media that he would launch a criminal investigate into this crime and has suspended Mr Ko of his membership.

Senate to hold vote on welfare reform veto.

The Senate will be holding a vote tonight to override a veto made by President Im.

The veto in question is the welfare reform bill Personal Responsibility And Work Opportunity Act which was passed on 7th March by both chambers but President Im refused to sign call, lambasting it as being ‘insensitive to the poor and vulnerable’.

He has remained committed to vetoing any attempts to reform welfare, referring to the welfare state as ‘perfect’.

The results will be announced 3 hours after the last senator cast his/her vote.

Welfare Reform veto override dies in Senate.

An attempt to override a veto made by President Im for the Personal Responsibility And Work Opportunity Act has died in the Senate when it failed to garner enough votes to perform such an override.

The override was casted on an entire party line vote, with all Conservative Senators voting in favour and all Labour Senators voting against. Although the partisan makeup in the Senate is 88/87 to the Labour party which would have prevented any veto override, it was the entire senators from the minor parties who voted alongside the Labour Party which killed off the override decisively.

Welfare reform is highly controversial in Bai Lung as many would argue that denying its citizens welfare would result in an increase in poverty rates. Others claim that relying on the state for money would create a culture of work sickness.

Chen Jong Sun memorial plaque removed in Chen Tai Soon.

A memorial plaque commemorating the late Stalinist dictator Chen Jong Sun has been removed from the Chen Tai Soon council building today.

It took 3 years of debate whether the plaque should remain or whether it should be removed. The local court ruled overwhelmingly in favour of removing the plaque yesterday and it was removed today at 0900 hours.

Chen, who ruled Bai Lung from 1962-2006, remains a polarising figure amongst the general popular with some praising him for his ‘class equality’ programs while others criticise him for his harsh treatment with regards to human rights. Those who spoke out against the dictator were often subjected to brutal treatment until they denounce their dissending beliefs or be executed for their crimes.

The Labour controlled council has announced that it would replace the plaque with a sign of the Chen Tai Soon council.

Frederic Lin aides die of food poisoning.

All 12 aides to Conservative Prime Minister Frederic Lin who were poisoned at a restaurant in New Jian Sha Zui have died in hospital, a spokesman to Mr Lin has confirmed.

Last Thursday, several aides to PM Lin were eating at the Guangcheng Restaurant in New Jian Sha Zui where Mr Lin was holding a speech at the town hall. 12 of his aides were complaining of severe headaches and then fell unconscious. Police have later found small amounts of a white powdery substance in their foods. There is no cure for the poison once it has been ingested in the human body.

2 of Mr Lin’s aides, Ko Ta Shui and King Lei died on the same day they were poisoned. Today, the last surviving victim Ding An Mun died today at 0640 hours.

The assassin is still at large and police have launched a nationwide appeal to find this suspect. Calls can be made confidentially with this freeline 646987133498.

Shamed TV Personality denied entry to Bai Lung Dalu.

Shamed Dannistrian TV Personality and Lawyer Simon Cho An Myong has been denied entry to Bai Lung Dalu because of his criminal records.

Mr Cho is the host of the Cho and Cheese show, a chat show co-hosted by Cho and Robert Cheese. They are known for their catch phrase ‘It’s time to Chose some Cheese!’. The programme started in 1999 and ended in 2010 when Mr Cho was arrested for tax evasion by storing his money in Bai Lung Dalu as it does not tax individuals for personal savings. Mr Cho pleaded guilty and was ordered to pay $500,000 in fines.

The Bai Lungese and Dannistrian have co-operated with one another to ensure that Mr Cho does not use Bai Lung Dalu as a tax haven.

There is a loop hole in the country in which Dannistrian people of Bai Lungese heritage can set up bank accounts in the mainland because of its mostly tax free status. President Im is currently asking Parliament to draft legislation which would close such loop holes in the near future,

Kashgar protests hit the streets of New Xinjiang. Ends in race riots.

50,000 strong protests has hit the streets of the mainland capital in response to the 6 month bombing operations which took place in many places of Bai Lung Dalu.

The group, which consists of an entirely ethnic Kashgar crowd, have marched down the streets of New Xinjiang, waving banners condemning the operations and of President Im, as well as singing traditional Kashgar songs. BLCTV News reporter Kim Lai Wang has tried to conduct interviews with participants of the protest but every single protester turn down an offer to speak to him because of his Bai Lungese origin. Mr Kim fled the scene when the crowd started chanting out ‘the occupier’ and throwing cabbages at his direction. Mr Kim was not hurt at the scene but is visibly shaken by the experience.

As the group headed into the city centre, they were met by counter protests in opposition to the Kashgar presence. Both groups engaged in violent brawls with one another and the riots were quelled by police within minutes.

400 people were arrested at the scene of the riots, 320 of them being of Kashgar origin.

The unusual number of Kashgars arrested in proportion to that of Bai Lungese has led to accusations of racial profiling by the local Kashgar community. The police have repeatedly denied all charges of racism, claiming that they will arrested any troublemaker regardless of race, colour or creed.

Kashgar riots spread to Uzbari, Kazakhbari.

Two more larger, all Kashgar protests have hit the streets of two predominately Kashgar cities after the New Xinjiang rally which was held yesterday afternoon.

Uzbari and Kazakhbari is mostly Kashgar in origin with estimates of 80% of the population of both cities being ethnically Kashgar. This number has been largely static since 1950. Bai Lungese comprises as the ethnic minority in both cities and are found mostly in the city centre. Ethnic tensions are frequent in the cities but todays protests in both cities are unprecedented as very few Kashgar dare to protest in public.

The protestors also complained of the high number of arrests of Kashgar protestors at the New Xinjiang demonstrations.

Despite strong efforts by police to prevent another race riot like the one seen in New Xinjiang, there has been reports of violent brawls between the Kashgar and Bai Lungese protestors.

A series of race riots continues to it’s 3rd day after a group of Kashgars paraded into the mainland capital New Xinjiang protests against the Bai Lungese occupation and the Operation Mainland Freedom which has left 24,000 Kashgar died in the 6 month bombings.

Uzbari council building firebombed by Kashgar protestors.

A group of Kashgar protestors have attacked a local council building by throwing molotovs at the entrance and some threw the bottles at windows, causing fire in the floors they were targeting.

When office workers attempted to evacuate from the burning premise, several Kashgar protestors threw bricks and bottles at the workers in an attempt to prevent them from exiting the building safely. The protestors all chanted in Kashgari ‘Death to all occupiers!’

Police started to crack down on the protestors before they pursue further damage to the council building. Most fled the scene almost immediately seeing the police but some determined protestors stood their ground and physically assaulted the police before being arrested.

This is the 4th day of mainland protests by the Kashgar community and is seen as unprecedented by many as most Kashgar aren’t bold enough to take a stand against the Bai Lungese majority.

Uzbari councillor dies in firebomb attack.

An Uzbari councillor has died in an ambush attack consisting of Molotov cocktails thrown at his car, officials have reported.

Chen Dai Jin, 45, was commuting back to his home outside of Uzbari and was suddenly been ambushed by a 1,000 strong crowd of ethnic Kashgar protestors. Many of the crowds began to throw Molotov cocktails at his car. Despite desperate attempts to flee from his burning vehicle, several protestors threw rocks and bricks at his direction in order to keep him from escaping from the burning car.

It was a brick which hit him in the head which knocked him unconscious. Eyewitness reports say that the crowd cheered uproariously when Mr Chen was immobilized by the attack.

Police arrived at the scene in armoured techincals to disperse the crowd and fought vigorously to rescue Mr Chen from the burning wreckage. Most Kashgar protestors fled the scene but some fanatical crowds stood their ground and fought the police as well. 50 men were arrested at the scene and the riot ended in minutes.

Medics took Mr Chen to the nearest hospital where he died on arrival. Doctors confirmed that he died from smoke inhalation.

All but one members of parliament strongly condemned the attacks and has held a minute silence in respect of Mr Chen.

Spiritual leader Supoorimat Barkediev has spoken favourably of the riots and has called for more uprisings similar to today’s attack.

2nd Uzbari councillor dies in Kashgar ambush.

A 2nd Uzbari councillor and his wife have died in when a crowd of Kashgar protestors ambushed the couple while they were in their car.

The incident, which took place in the outskirts of the city at 0952 hours, is the 2nd instance in which a politician has been killed in the recent racial tensions in the mainland. The councillor killed in the scene is confirmed to be Li Zhu Sun and his wife Li Mei Guo was also killed.

Kashgars ambushed the couple and started shooting at the car in Fong Shui Street, killing Mr and Mrs Li instantly. Police have arrived at the scene almost instantly when shots were fired and have arrested 5 suspects in suspicion of the shootings.

Yesterday, Chen Dai Jin died of smoke inhalation when his car was firebombed by a similar mob. 50 men have been arrested.

In a statement published by the Im administration, President Im has announced that he would increase security for all politicians irrespective of their party affiliation. Many politicians in the mainland have announced that they would shorten their local surgery by 30 minutes in response to the death of their fellow politicians.

Pro-Chen Jong Sun exhibition ends in mass rioting.

A pro-Chen Jong Sun exhibit held outside of the Wang Bin Museum in Pyongjing has ended in a series of violent clashes between the pro-Stalinist protestors and anti-Stalinists protestors.

The event, which will be held from 30th April to 7th May at the entrance of the Wang Bin Museum, includes an array of memorabilia from the 1962-2006, the years in which the late Stalinist dictator ruled the country, as well as interactive features in which visitors can learn about the history of Chen.

Critics, especially those sympathetic to Republican causes, are highly critical of how the exhibition is glamourising a brutal leader who starved many of his fellow countrymen and for torturing dissidents.

A large group of anti-Chen Jong Sun protestors have attempted to block entry to the exhibition while waving anti-Chen placards denouncing his policies. Within minutes, a group of pro-Chen protestors started taunting the anti-Chen group, which was followed by both groups hurling bottles and each other.
Police have quelled the riots before damage was made to the museum. In total, 30 men have been arrested for misdemeanour.

Kashgar Liberation Front leader killed in Bai Lung Army raid.

The Kashgar Liberation Front leader Bashir Farabhazi has been killed in a raid conducted by the Bai Lung Armed Forces in the outskirts of Dongkin, 15 miles south of Dongmen.

Bai Lungese intelligence officials discovered the whereabouts of Bashir Farabhazi, who is also the eldest son to former spiritual leader Tentsin Farabhazi, by tracking one of his couriers. Information was collected from Deng Prison Island detainees, who give the courier’s pseudonym and said that he was a protégé of the former spiritual leader.

In 2007, officials discovered the courier’s real name and in 2009, that he lived in Dongkin, Bai Lung Dalu.

President Im met with his security advisors on 14th March 2011, the first of ten security meetings over six weeks. On April 28th 2011, convened with Secretary of Defence Vincent Locke and other security advisors in the Diplomatic Room, where he authorised a raid of the Dongkin compound.

According to a statement issued by the Bai Lung Armed Forces, the raid was conducted at the early hours of 0630 in an affluent area of Dongkin with a 60 men unit and lasted for 45 minutes. The team claimed that Mr Farabhazi had shouted ‘Anabar Bishu’ before opening fire at the 60 men squad.

Bai Lung Armed Forces shot and killed Farabhazi in a firefight at the start of the 45 minute operation. According to locals of the small town, they heard war cries from Farabhazi like uttering ‘Annabar Bishu’ before a series of gunfire were heard.

Amongst other notable casualties include 9 senior commanders of the KLF including Farabhazi’s no 2 Sergjy Kaparoff, KLF propaganda minister Antanov Medfediev, webmaster of KLFBishu.ksghr Iffan Bahgrov, Defence Minister Chamal Chadrey, Farabhazi’s wife, the courier and the courier’s cousin.

BLAF have also released unprecedented additional information to the press regarding the operation such as mentioning about how Mr Farabhazi hid behind his wife during the firefight. His wife called him by name during the raid, inadvertently assisting in his identification by BLAF on the ground.

5 BLAF soldiers were injured when a fellow soldier used a MILKOR grenade launcher at the compound when a KLF commander was mistaken for lowering his arms for attempting to reach a firearm. One of five injured has his right leg amputated because of the blast.

In total, 32 people were either killed or arrested at the compound.

Reaction to the death of the KLF leader is highly polarised with Bai Lungese residents celebrating with joy while Kashgar residents strongly condemned the President’s use of excessive force.

Current Kashgar spiritual leader Supoorimat Barkediev, has vowed to commit more acts of ‘self-defence’ after the death of the KLF leader.

Kashgar Liberation Front interim leaders may consider renegotiation with President Im administration.

The leaders of the Kashgar Liberation Front (KLF) by default are strongly considering restarting all peace talks with the President Im administration after their previous leaders were killed in Sunday’s raid at Dongkin, Bai Lung Dalu.

The current interim admin leader, Sergjy Puhtien has told the media that he would be willing to speak to President Im himself and discuss possible long term cease fire agreements between the Kashgar and Bai Lungese people. In accordance to Bischkeck traditions over a belief that Bischkeck is the only living being who can fly, he has stated that he cannot travel to Mao island via airliner and would request that President Im would fly over to the mainland.

Conservative commentators have claimed that KLF leader Bashir Farabhazi is not actually dead and that President Im is using his alleged killing as a political vehicle for his successor’s Presidential election campaign.

Kashgar Liberation Front interim leaders make historic first meeting with President Im.

Interim Kashgar Liberation Front leaders have met with President Im in the mainland capital to hold peace talks for the first time since Operation Mainland Freedom started began in fall last year, which has killed 23,000 people.

Sergiy Puhtien was shaking hands with President Im as a symbolic gesture to the world that a peace deal can be negotiated through the two leaders within weeks of talks.

Kashgar spiritual leader Supporimat Barkediev has crticised the current leader. In a Kashgar funded channel, Mr Barkediev has sharply criticised Mr Puthien for being ‘too moderate’ and lacking the charisma of predecessor Bashir Farabhazi and has praised the late leader for his bravery, outspoken views and leadership. He has called for President Im to be slain before a crowd of Kashgar people.

Father shot dead by police after a tense hostage standoff.


Posted Image

A man has been shot dead by police after threatening to murder his own daughter with a katana.

The scene was captured after Li Eun-Bai, 33, caused an accident with another car and instead of stopping to exchange details, attempted to flee the scene.

But police were in the area chased the hit and run motorist, finally stopping him 15 minutes later just outside of western Pyongjing.

Li, who was with his wife Yang and daughter Xia, refused to surrender and demanded police to get out of the way.

One local witness recalled the incident.

Quote:
 
”I heard the car screaming down this road and then the car stopped abruptly after two police cars blocked the road. Then the driver leapt out with a huge Japanese sword and waving what I thought was a doll. I suddenly realised that it is actually a young child he was holding hostage. She started to cry when the man was shouting. I did not realise until now that it was the man’s daughter. I thought it was some kidnapping plot by some local crime gang gone totally wrong. The man then told police to let him go or his daughter will be killed. He attempted to climb back into the car but I then heard gunfire and noticed that Mr Li took one in the head. The hostage situation was declared over.“


The above picture shows the very last moments of Mr Li before he was shot through the head by trained snipers.

Reaction to the hostage situation yesterday has been mixed, with some praising the police for their, swift, no nonsense action and others criticising the police for their heavy handed approach to a situation which would have ended peacefully. The lack of a police negotiator present at the scene was also criticised.

Secretary of State Zhou Minlang has stated that he would not hold any further investigations regarding the case and has called for the public to resume ‘their business’.

OP-ED Piece: Why Kelly Minn’ow Jones is the worst leader in the world.

Never have I encountered such extremist policies other than Kelly Blanche Minn’ow Jones, the former First Minister of East Dannistaan. Praised by many for her conviction agenda and ridiculed for enacting some of the most extreme pieces legislation in the history of East Dannistrian policies.

Minn’ow-Jones has described herself as having a ‘luscious taste for unfettered free market enterprises’. She firmly believed that a free enterprise scheme without any government intrusion was somehow equated to liberty and democracy from the tyranny of a secular, bloated socialist government.

Kelly, or Blanche as her family has always referred to her as such, is unique from the rabid far-right politicians like Hitler or Mussolini. She, like many on the anti-immigration far-right, have shown a deep seated hatred for all Bai Lungese immigrants. During her first stint as First Minister in 2005, she has created an immigration timetable which could see East Dannistaan’s demographics brought back to pre-1850 levels within 10 years. To achieve this, she would have to kick out the entire Bai Lungese diaspora. Of course, this is the very point that Ms Jones trying to achieve. She wants to kick out all the Bai Lungese people because the racism against my people is so deeply ingrained into her head.

When she became First Minister in May 2010 for the second time, she modified her bigoted anti-Bai Lungese immigration timetable so that it would turn East Dannistaan into a Bai Lungese free country by 2020. a not so perfect vision for the nation.

But unlike her far-right contemporaries who favour protectionism, she is a staunch supporter of the free-market policies. Going by the theories of Milton Friedman and his book Capitalism and Freedom, she decided to embark on the most destructive economic policies that surpass even her first run as FM, as well as that of her predecessors. For instance, she passed the East Dannistaan Gold Reserve Privatisation Act 2010 in June 2010 at the Reserve Bank itself. She illegally signed this piece of legislation without the either the Governor General’s or the Lieutenant Governor’s permission (whom she referred the former as a ‘Mongrel’). This reckless piece of law meant that she sold off every single last piece of gold to various private companies and banks. 500 billion Ailuropoda (that is 50% of the state’s GDP!) of gold all gone in a puff of smoke! That half a trillion of gold reserves would have alone reduced the 800 billion Ailuropoda debt at the time to 300 billion or roughly 30% of GDP!

That was the plan when she sold off every single piece of aurum. It was supposed to ‘stimulate’ the economy and get us out of debt. Look where she took us now.

Even her DNP predecessor never went as far as to sell every last gram of aurum to private companies. Even her DNP predecessor did not stoop so low by selling off most of the nature reserves. Not even her DNP predecessor went as far as to authorise the chopping down of the Eli Tree by private companies. That tree is popular by parties from left to right and now a large black monolith stands there, bearing the company logo of Ko Ke industries.

To add insult to injury, the Minn’ow-Jones government has cut the 40% top margin income tax rate to 28% while raising the basic rate of 5% to 15%. Her additional plans were to impose a strict flat income tax rate of 22% to all earners (as puts it: ‘the ideal household tax return should be able to fit in a postcard.’) while abolishing corporation tax, capital gains tax and the death tax. She has succeeded in enacting the latter three but the strict flat income tax rate was met with heavy resistance, even from within her own party.

According to her closest aides, Minn’ow-Jones has never liked the idea of a flat tax with deductions as she sees it as too progressive for her agenda. Robert Tyn’dahl and Bright Chang’girai favoured marginal flat tax rates when both campaigned for the DNP leadership.

She was not any more moderate towards education. She despised public education (or as she called it ‘socialised education’), and has virtually eliminated education spending. Instead, school vouchers were the only way you could send your kid to school. The level of education standards dropped severely. A non-partisan think tank has claimed that secondary school drop-out rates increased by 59% during her tenure, a damning indictment to her education policy.

Universal health care is a colossal anathema to Minn’ow-Jones and has made failed attempts to defund the state’s health budget. In July of last year, she and her entourage infamously blocked a Neorvins Road Infirmary unless patients showed their wallets or they will be denied treatment. She kept on with her ‘struggle against socialised medicine’ for a week until she (ironically) was arrested by the very laws that she placed as First Minister. Her offence? Breach of the peace at a public facility.

She has also privatised the state’s borders, something which was reversed by her successor.

Her privatise every nook and cranny policies are so destructive that she has left the country with a budget deficit three times larger than tax revenues. Since her ousting by her own party, her successor has inherited a 120% GDP of public debt, up from 80% when she took over. The nation now owes the rest of the country 1.28 trillion Ailuropoda at the time I am writing this or 128% GDP. Tax revenue slumped from 150 billion Ailuropoda to 100 billion Ailuropoda as result of her massive tax breaks to the very, very wealthy. Her beliefs of a low tax, low spending society did not apply once she took office. In fact, spending increased to 190 billion Ailuropoda, up from 180 billion Ailuropoda when she started as FM. She left the state with a budget deficit three times larger than before.

This is why Kelly Blanche Minn’ow-Jones is not only the worst leader of a nation; she is also downright psychotic, very militaristic and a pathological racist. Although she does not use racial slurs of my people, her fiery, jingoist rhetoric demonstrates her outright hatred of the Bai Lungese diaspora, who comprise 25% of the Dannistrian population.

Her governance of East Dannistaan is of unspeakable proportions and this begs the question: Why is Ms Jones not put before the High Court of Dannistaan for she did? Why are the justices refusing to take action against her atrocious crimes? She is backed by powerful lobbyists and CEOs of big oil companies and various pro-limited government conglomerates, that’s why! If we could shackle these large corporations and stop their countless funnelling of money to candidates they find favourable, then the Dannistrian people can bring down this tyrannical beast from not only East Dannistrian politics, but all of Dannistaan.

Jin Ai-Myong is a freelance journalist currently based in For’af, East Dannistaan, who writes on politics, fashion and movies. He has worked with the the Dannistrian Guardian, Morning Star Dannistaan and Stalwart Daily. More recently, he has made a short film about the slums in For’af.
