It's official. Congratulations, Seludong! :).

Thank you for your efforts as well. You have twice proven your capacity to handle transitory phases in our region's history. Despite your limitations, we hope we continue to work together in the years to come.

Congratulations again Seludong for being elected as delegate with 66.66666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666666 percent of the vote. At this point, you probably have the highest vote share for any contested election done since 2011.

Thank you for the congratulations (and the numbers!). We can do this together moving forward.

Lanaograd's loss (I think this is for the third time) and the relative stability of Ariusgrad (who was never inactive in NS) by contrast proves that NationStates moderators may have made an honest mistake in tagging them both as multies of each other, thus revoking their WA membership as consequence. If you ask me, this is sufficient evidence that Ariusgrad, and Lanaograd as well if it still decides to return, should be granted WA membership again. That is the least they could do to clear the names of our region's pillars for the past decade, which they sullied with their allegations and subsequent actions. Even Ariusgrad's pending commend was temporarily halted because of this issue! I strongly plead our new leadership under Seludong and Republic of Bukidnon to actively pursue once more the commend of our longest serving delegate, as Lanaograd laboriously did in the past three years.

I agree to this, should they hopefully return.

I would like to thank everyone for their immediate endorsements. This is a good sign that the number of WA members is increasing.

Also, please note that I have formed a Council of State that includes the Vice-President and several other senior statesmen. Their titles have already been altered to reflect this.
In addition, I have promoted Ecnav Enitsuj to Internal Affairs Advisor, as our Homeland Officer/Regional Affairs Minister is currently inactive.

Congratulations to the new Pres. and new V. Pres..

We would be glad to have you on board. Ecnav Enitsuj will for the meantime serve as interim minister.

If the others are amenable to this, I suggest that Guiuan be appointed as they have expressed interest in the role. Their experience as a former Delegate is enough credentials in my opinion.

Hello po sa inyo

Mabuhay! Welcome!

We have currently re-established relations with The League, which after having cited a history of ties, have applied and been allowed to build their embassy in our Region.

Greetings from Laraniem!

How are you doing? :D

Hello Philippines, this new poll includes some options from the real world Philippines, so perhaps you're interested in participating in the conversation. Many regards!

Many regards! Thank you for the interesting poll (I'm particularly interested in the Darangen, actually).

Isang Mapagpalayang Araw sa Lahat!

There is a new poll up, just to see who are members of the World Assembly (WA) as of this month.
Kindly respond as soon as possible, as the poll is only open for one (1) week.

Part of our plan of governance is to boost our numbers in the WA, and ensure endorsements for all key officers and member states.
For those who are new to our Region, this is highly encouraged. Should you have any queries, do not hesitate to ask in our Regional Message Board (RMB).

Maraming Salamat sa Inyóng Lahát!

Awesome!

Magandáng Araw sa Inyong Lahat!

We are pleased to announce the following developments in our Region.

1. The Embassy with The League has officially been opened, making them our 157th bilateral relation as of this writing.

2. It is with great joy that we bring the news that our former Delegate, The Republic of Guiuan, has formally accepted appointment as URA Vice President, in concurrent ex officio capacity as Homeland Officer/Regional Affairs Minister, filling in the position recently vacated by Lanaograd. We send President Fisieux our warmest congratulations, and look forward to their collaboration with the rest of the Regional Government.

Is Guiuan a member of the URA Discord server? If I recall correctly, they are holding special elections for who will succeed Lanaograd as Vice President. It is not appointed by our regional government. I hope you have cleared this up with the alliance. We might be at odds with the leadership of Free Azell and Suvmia if we decide on this arbitrarily.

Updates on this? I believe despite what happened with Ariusgrad's WA membership, it is still very much eligible, considering how the governance structure it founded pretty much held up despite the past weeks' troubles that left us vulnerable. Lanaograd, Manilenyos, and Ellenburg appear to be working on the proposal before this debacle happened.

I've checked the URA server and have found out that the special elections will be held tomorrow, April 25. Nominations were opened last April 04 and were closed last April 18. Maricoen, Allangoria, and Pekares are the candidates for URA Vice President.

Hello, Fort ilocandia,

This is understood. Given that, I will remove Guiuan from the post at the moment and leave it vacant. I have also recently sent them the link to the Discord server so that they can join. As to the commend of Ariusgrad, I have found the latest draft of the proposal.

Thank you Republic of Bukidnon for the information on the special elections and the list of existing candidates. Wishing all three the best of luck in the polls!

My apologies for the mistake in unilaterally filling the post without knowledge of the special elections for URA Vice President.

Sincerely,

Manuel IV R.

The spot Guiuan is supposed to/can fill is Philippines's Rep/Voting Member, which is basically somebody who votes on WA proposals in the URA server. We don't have one at the moment.

Well, Lanaograd left the discord server, Ellenburg seems to have dropped the proposal, which means I'd have to start from scratch - otherwise, I would be punished for plagiarism. Couple that with the fact that the WA ejection would make it more controversial, I am not sure about moving forward with a commend at this time. I just don't see it passing any time soon, unless Ariusgrad continues to be active, especially in foreign affairs. Otherwise, the SC regulars wouldn't hesitate to shut it down the moment I bring a draft to the forums.

Apologies for the bluntness. Maybe if the ban is lifted and it is proven that Ariusgrad and Lanaograd are, in fact, different people I would be way more enthusiastic, but I don't see anything good coming out of it with the current situation.

TL;DR I think Ariusgrad is commendable, but a commendation wouldn't pass due to the WA ejection. Trying to argue that the mods simply lied without providing evidence will just ruin any other chance of passing this, so we'll have to play the long game and wait.

On another note, though, if you do want to try to get the ban lifted, feel free to mention stuff you think is evidence enough, and maybe I can move forward with this after all.

Are you sure that Ellenburg dropped it? If not, we can ask him to take it up. I have been around for its passing.

Hello Everyone! The URA does need the spot of Voting member filled by a member of your region on the discord. I have halted the Commend though I do believe that Aruisgrad is Commendable but with the current ban I don't see an avenue of getting this passed in the Security Council. As many of you believe I believe the MOD's have made a mistake but with no avenue to reverse there ruling I had to halt the Commend until its lifted at least. If you all feel it can be continued and passed. Please feel free to use what I have done so far. I just asked that you make me a co-author of the proposal. If anyone has questions feel free to telegram me or contact me on discord.
