SECURITY COUNCIL RESOLUTION AT VOTE

Commend Mahaj

A resolution to recognize outstanding contribution by a nation or region.


Category: Commendation | Nominee: Mahaj | Proposed by: Great Brigantia
Description: The Security Council:

Recognising that Mahaj has for years been committed to the defence of regional communities against unjust invasion, as a Lieutenant of the United Defenders League (UDL), then as Chief Lieutenant, and finally as Chief of the Band, the highest office in that organisation, and has been involved in many defence and liberation efforts, including more than twenty significant liberations;

Acknowledging that Mahaj was elected to the chieftaincy of the UDL at a time of great turmoil for the organisation, weathered this turmoil with grace and patience, and implemented important reforms in the way the UDL engaged with the most prominent regional communities in the world;

Recalling that despite great uncertainty regarding the future of the UDL within the interregional community, during Mahaj's service as Chief of the Band the UDL ratified a treaty with The East Pacific and a defence agreement with The Rejected Realms, the first enduring formal alliances in the organisation's history, as well as improving the UDL's relations with other defender regions and organisations;

Recollecting that Mahaj was dedicated to Osiris from the region's earliest days and served with distinction in its first constitutional government, the Kemetic Republic of Osiris: first in the Sepatarchy, at the time the region's representative legislature; then as Kai Repat, at the time the region's Vice Delegate and chief legislative office; later on the Council of Ma'at, at the time the region's security council; as well as serving in the Medjai Guard, at the time the regional military, and in various executive positions;

Applauding the persistence of Mahaj in efforts to liberate Osiris during a coup d'etat perpetrated by The dourian embassy, and Mahaj's assistance in organising the final operation to eject The Dourian Embassy from the region;

Observing that Mahaj, sometimes through the administration of Mahaj wa seat, has been prolific in authoring and co-authoring legislation enacted by this Security Council, particularly liberation resolutions to remove destructive barriers imposed by invader Delegates, including primary authorship of the following:

SC#63: Commend Ballotonia;

SC#76: Repeal "Condemn Thatcherton";

SC#78: Commend Unibot II;

SC#80: Liberate Catholic;

SC#95: Liberate Christmas;

SC#98: Commend Topid;

SC#103: Repeal "Condemn Sedgistan";

SC#123: Commend Luna Amore;

Noting that Mahaj, again through occasional administration of Mahaj WA Seat, has also demonstrated a commitment to authoring and co-authoring General Assembly resolutions, and to improving draft resolutions proposed by other nations, including primary authorship of the following:

GA#131: Missing Minors Act;

GA#142: In Regards to Cloning;

GA#158: On Genetically Modified Foods;

GA#165: A Model World Assembly;

Respecting Mahaj's advancement of interregional and international interest in the World Assembly during residency in Eastern Islands of Dharma, as well as through prior participation in and leadership of the WA Affairs departments of regions such as The North Pacific and Osiris;

Declaring that Mahaj has made a lasting, positive contribution to interregional peace and goodwill, as well as to international efforts to improve quality of life throughout the world, and that this contribution should be swiftly recognised and commended by the nations and regions of the world, here assembled:

Hereby Commends Mahaj.

For, Against, or Abstain.
 
Ministry Determination
Recommendation:
AGAINST

While nobody can deny Mahaj's contributions to the game, one can absolutely contend that those contributions were more controversial than we are led to believe.

The most apparent one of these is his attempt at a coup here in our very region, as well in several other founderless regions, including Canada, Capitalist Paradise, Lazarus, The North Pacific, and The Rejected Realms.

There is evidence to suggest, put up in the SC debate thread, that it is Mahaj's leadership that did irreparable damage to the UDL.

There is plenty of reason to doubt his dedicated position as a "defender" when looking into a history of Mahaj's targets, which are rife with occupying small, founderless regions regardless of active WA members and long-term delegates.

On the whole, this commendation actively ignores the controversy surrounding Mahaj, and commending a player that has committed crimes against TNP is not in the best interest of our region. As such, the WA Ministry recommends a vote AGAINST.

Why anyone would list in a commendation that a player has written four WA resolutions, all four of which have since been repealed, is rather beyond me. This is superb.

IIRC, Security Council Commendations take into account authorship regardless of the status of the resolutions. So, silly, but relevant to them, I suppose?

I could be off. Ever since the SC switched to an almost entirely GP perspective, I've done my best to avoid picking up any of their habits or quirks.
 
Maybe. Come to think of it, it's an achievement of sorts: I can't think of anyone else who's written that many resolutions and had all of them repealed. Even some of Charlotte Ryberg's survive.
 
Voting on this resolution has ended.

Thanks to those nations who cast their votes. Your participation is a great help to the region.
