Embassy of The West Pacific

Thank you, my friend. We in the WP look forward to a strong, peaceful, and lasting relationship with our brothers and sisters in the NP.

We are still trying to cover all our embassies so I will still be here to answer questions and the like. :ph34r:
 
Hello all, I am now TWP's ambassador to TNP. I will always make sure to keep this office stocked with cookies for those of you who wander on. Any questions about TWP, feel free to ask and I'll get any answer to you ASAP
 
Here's the first edition of TWP's Prress Secretary reports, version 2.0. Now with more glitter :P



Update on The West Pacific 6th June 2006

The West Pacific Forums
Delegate: Eli of The Tenatively Bicycling Nation of Wickedly evil people
The West Pacific contained 6,218 nations as of 11:21am 6th of June 2006.

Perhaps the most important news is that The West Pacific enacted a new Constitution and has directed a lot of energy to making this new structure 'live'.

Interior
We're just starting to formalize a buddy system to mentor newcomers. Many nations have join this program and have been given new nations to help mentor.

The West Pacific created a RP Rules committee. They are in the process of forming the rule which nations are to follow when in the vast RP section of the site.

Foreign Affairs:
The West Pacific is crafting the language of an alliance agreement with Gatesville Forum: antiUN

The West Pacific has (re-)established embassies to several other regions and welcomes the Ambassadors from Jethnea, Liberalia, Imperialis, The East Pacific, North Pacific, Lazarusand Accel

Justice
The peace-loving, law-abiding nations of The West Pacific have so far given this Ministry nothing to exercise but patience, waiting for the first case to be brought under the new Constitution.

The distinction between the role of Minister of Justice and Chief Justice and the possibility of a Parliamentarian or Constitutional Advisor to either the Senate or to the Council of Nations (or both) is being clarified and considered.

At the present moment in time the Council of Ministers (CoM) are in the process of creating a Judicial Charter and the Senate is working on a Bill of Rights for the nations of the West Pacific.

Defense
The West Pacific Liberation Force, as always during peacetime, has been training to ensure readiness to assist in restoring invaded regions to stability, and assisting regions in pre-emptive defenses against invasion.



That's our story, and we're sticking to it.

Report by Press Secretary - The Realm of The Realm
 
The following statement was issued by Eli earlier today
As many of you already know The Lexicon has declared war upon The North Pacific. Insane Power of The Lexicon was banned from their offsite forum, for good reason in my opinion, and has continued his long running vendetta against the peace loving people of The North Pacific.

I hereby declare the West Pacific's support and solidarity with the people of the North Pacific and their Delegate Former English Colony.

Please convey my thanks on behalf of The North Pacific to Eli, Limitless. We greatly appreciate your support in this conflict.

The West Pacific continues its prestigious tradition of generally being a kickass region.

Thanks for the support, guys.
 
Fresh update, hot off whatever it was written on :P

The West Pacific Forums
Delegate: Eli of The Tenatively Bicycling Nation of Wickedly evil people
The West Pacific contained 5,261 nations as of 8:22 pm (GMT-6+1DST) 26 July 2006 versus 6,218 two months earlier, a decrease of 15.4 per cent.  If we can maintain the current rate of shrinkage, we'll be half our current size by April of next year, and under 100 nations by July of 2010.

The West Pacific Senate re-elected Shasoria as our Speaker, and has negotiated procedures for First Minister/Delegate elections; the proposed procedure would amend the Constitution, so it is under review by Minister of Justice Halmont.  If approved and ratified, the procedure would call for a Senate review of the First Minister's performance every three months and a vote on whether or not to hold elections.

The government also produced and enacted A Bill of Rights (here) and a Judicial Code (here).

First Minister Eli recently created a position called Censor and appointed New People to the role; apparently the Censor will guard public morals for the edification and amusement of all.  Cave Canem was elected to the position of Chief Justice. Associate Justice Schwartzchild was elected, and The Realm of The Realm (a new senator) was appointed; they fill the remaining two seats on the high court.  Berhampore was also welcomed as a new member of the senate since the last report, while we said farewell to senators Eaglesham who departed to RL, and The Faeyas, now a resident of the New Meritocracy.  We take this opportunity to salute them once more, and wish them well.

Forum Bombing
The only other topic which rose to the level of attention normally reserved for Spam and Game threads were questions about whether or not, and how, to discipline the Senator from Jargongrad for admitted forum bombing.  A majority of the eighteen senators appearing on this matter voted for unqualified removal from the Senate based on dereliction of duty, but neither the Constitutional quorum or supermajority requirements were satisfied to cause an ejection.

The NationStates Convention on Espionage and Warfare (also known as the Merit Convention) featured prominently in this sometimes heated discussion; the meaning of the convention, and the actions expected of signatories (and lack of such action) have all become part of the fabric of this matter.

The questions remain unanswered at this writing, with talk of suspension and censure still pending.  At one point there were seven open threads on this issue; for some residents in The West Pacific, this is still a matter of intense focus and concern, while others would prefer to pass on to other matters.
  • Interior
    The Role Play Rules Committee of The West Pacific has drafted a regional rule for Ministerial review.  As of this date, the final review is being postponed by Interior Minister Biteland to accomodate some late contributions.

    The Minister recently named Senator Limitless Events as the region's Director of Immigration.

    Foreign Affairs
    The West Pacific has established or re-established consulates, embassies, or interest sections as well as treaties and alliances with several regions, and is considering and discussing others as of this writing.  Contact Foreign Minister Clockwork Isle for specifics on the status of our relations with any given region or group.

    Justice
    The West Pacific has, as mentioned above, a Bill of Rights and a Judicial Code, a newly elected Chief Justice and two Associates (one elected, one appointed.)  Still no case to adjudicate, though!  Bring your claims to Chief Justice Cave Canem and see Justice served!

    The distinction between the role of Minister of Justice and Chief Justice was finalized and established as part of the The West Pacific canon of government.  Justice Minister Halmont can elaborate the distinction for you, or advise you on potential region legislation.

    Defense
    The ranks of The West Pacific Liberation Force (WPLF) have acquired a few new members and have supported several missions to regions fighting off and pre-emptively defending invasion.  See Defense Minister Shasoria (our Speaker of the Senate and General of the Army of the WPLF) if you need to coordinate a defensive action.

    Other
    Featured Fun
    Questions Only, Who will post next? and Free Associate are some of the preoccupations of our nations.

    Senator freedom & pride has been instrumental in organizing a  thread on North Korea with abundant photos and continuing high traffic / post counts.

    We close noticing the great nation (and prospective Senator) New Ballston has begun RP threads on some of the issues before the Senate ... in our Town Hall, and we salute this lively and creative use of the Town Hall sub-forum.

That's our story, and we're sticking to it.

We've selected a new First Minister in the West, Shasoria!!

He's been an outstanding leader of his nation and the region for many years and we're grateful he deigned to accept the job of First Minister along with his myriad other responsibilities at home and at the regional level. He'll be an outstanding First Minister.

Check out the news article about all this here. Great job by North Harmoneia on the article methinks.


Come by and visit at twp.nosync.org we love company. :evil:



*being the leader of Wickedly evil people I seriously think I needs one of those evil emotii things.* :evil: :evil:
 
Shasoria's Reign

Shasoria, delivering his campaign speech. (noticed the person in the background? He’s a friend Shas’)

After four long months since the Re-Unification, the First Minister Elections had been held wherein a total 24 senators have voted, 37.5% of them voted for Eli, 45.8% for Shasoria, 16.7% for ZetaOne. Apparently, no had reached a clear majority, that said, the Speaker of The Senate announced that there would be a run-off election. The results are as follows:

Shasoria, with his ‘anonymous’ date during inauguration night.

Following the win of Shasoria, The Speaker position is currently vacant as elections for the said seat would take place soon, to be handled by Deputy Speakers Freedom and Pride, and Enegro Montoya. The new First Minister, however, had appointed new candidates for the Council of Ministers. Eli has been chosen for the Foreign Ministry, TAO and New People for State Security, and Dalimbar for the Defense Ministry. It is believed that these new ministers will do a great job, and would be an asset for the West Pacific Governemnt, although, they would still have to go through confirmation uinder the Senate.

The crowd of The West Pacific woould be looking forward to a fruitful term as Shasoria re-molds the region. The crowd would also like to thank Eli for raising The West Pacific as to what it is right now.
That said, Long Live TWP! Long Live Shasoria!

Our First Minister has condemned the New Pacific Order's "cleansing": Link.

The Imperial regime has responded with attacks in our foreign ministry: Link.
 
My personal apologies to the West Pacific. Today, for reasons totally unconnected with TWP, I placed Limitless Events in the banned member group, which means he cannot access this embassy, even though he is TWP ambassador to this region.

This matter is under cabinet and judicial review, and we will keep you informed of any developments.
 
As a result of this suspension and out of respect for the internal processes of The North Pacific we acknowledge this suspension and will appoint an interim Ambassador to man this vital position as soon as I've been able to consult with the First Minister.
 
The West Pacific recent announced its inability to sign the Feeder Summit’s proposed treaty because it doesn’t support The West Pacific’s belief in participatory self government. Eli, Foreign Minister of The West Pacific, told the gathered diplomats that his region would only sign a document that recognize the rights of individual nations to be represented in the governing of their region. Further The West Pacific issued a condemnation of the ongoing Ordo Hereticus and its unjustified removal of peaceful nations from The Pacific. The West hopes that the new regime in The Pacific will review its policy of exclusion and choose a government structure that represents all nations in its policies.

The West Pacific has also taken a strong stand in favor of democratic forces in Equilism, decrying Westwind’s dictatorial take over of the democratically elected government that he was pledged to support. The West supports Neo-Conservatism and the democratically selected government that the former democracy advocating Westwind so casually cast aside. Under the leadership of First Minister Shasoria the West Pacific stands in solidarity with the democratic movement in NationStates.

Recruitment activity continues within The West Pacific region. The Interior Ministry reaches out to residents new and old and invites them to voice their opinion about policy or to join the government. We continue to build a diverse region that represents the views of all member nations.

I wonder if you find it at all interesting how closely this (the failure of the Feeder Summit's Treaty) echoes the PRP cold war with the ADN/NASI and how it spilled into every corner of NS simply because of a stubborn inability on the part of the PRP to accept anyone or anything that had touched the ADN/Nasi.

Will the next step in the West be to refuse diplomatic relations with any region having relations with the NPO? That would seem to be the pattern you are emulating. Not quite original but truly a well founded plan to boost tensions and thus activity.

It warms my heart to see the West embrace and emulate Ivan's tactics. What a wonderful retirement gift you have given him and The Pacific.

Thank you. :tb2:
 
:ph34r:

It is also interesting to see that facts are unable to change the righteousness of the West. I challenge you to find one instance where the Ordo has banished one nation without justification.
 
On the contrary we welcome friendly relations with all regions and nations. We take no action against the NPO, other than failing to endorse its quaint methods of enforcing its power over its minions. That you feel compelled to dominate your region via a superstitious religious inquisition that is without justice for the average nation is just something we do not care to endorse via a Treaty.

We continue to offer the hand of friendship to all and to believe that all nations have the right to participate in the government of their region. I do understand that all regions won't have that view, it doesn't mean that we have to approve of their activities or philosophies.
 
You services are much appreciated.

What is the opinion of The West Pacific on the symbol-thingy: <3

Does it look like a disfigured snowcone?

It's too bad you don't know what you're talking about (specifically the first paragraph). The Republican Pacific's foreign policy was that of active engagement, specifically with those ADN-touched regions (seeing itself as the third power in a tri-polar world), thwarting Nasicournian attempts at "containment" of Pacific influence. Any actions of the PRP similar to what you describe happened long after the conflict had "spilled into every corner"; in fact only as that war's global scope was waning.
