July 1 | Here is an outline of the DOE' Budget Estimate for F.Y. 2017-2018 GDP Growth Rate: 5.8, the second highest in Pres. Marc CS.GS 's term Revenues: $3.54T Expenditures: $3.96T (mostly on infrastructures & education) Total Deficit: -$922B (-10.6% to GDP) 1 | The Central Bank of Auscania revealed the new banknote design proposal for the 2020 circulation (10th year anniversary) that features the new image of Auscania in urban planning, agriculture, sports, biodiversity, science/engineering, and architecture/fine arts. The proposal also introduced the first-ever multi-colored §100 as a tribute to Auscanians fighting for equal human rights. The final decision on the design proposal will be determined by 2019. For now, the existing banknotes are still valid until 2022. 5 | The host city Sydwyn is more than prepared for the upcoming Continental Games in 2020. Accommodating 21 official sports and more than 3000 athletes from around and outside the Cransian continent, the redevelopment of the newly-named Continental Park is expected to be finished by the end of 2019. The city government's efficient plan to reuse all of the park's facilities rather than building new venues (except for the new athletes' village) makes the Sydwyn the first city to host the Games twice, the least-expensive host city (with only 3.4 billion budget), and the first sustainable host city in Cransia. August 9 | A new evaluation for the F.Y. 2018-2019 was announced after the SQ government successfully ended the five-year economic growth assessment with the last rate of 5.8. This two-week initial evaluation will start on September 3 before the permanent six-month assessment from the ALSF is officially given. Its purpose and procedures have not been discussed yet, but the SQ government is ready for it. 16 | After President Marc http://CS.GS 's announcement to end his term next year, the Commission on Elections is now preparing for the Presidential and Senatorial Elections 2019, as well as the Hebrinian secessionists. The Matured Brinsland Party (MBP), United Brinsland Party (UBP), and Canaporean Independence Party (CIP) intensified their movement on independence, and they are going to support whoever recognize their independence. However, the United Auscanian Party is not one of their choices since Marc http://CS.GS is the UAP's current president. According to some political analysts, the 2019 Presidential Elections will be chaotic as the voters will be divided into pro- and anti-Hebrinian independence. Also, there will be a rivalry of senatorial slots among the majority parties, but the most affected are the UAP and Auscanian Liberal Party (ALP). 20 | The Cakeland President is flying to Sydwyn this week to discuss the TransCransia 2040 Project and make an agreement with the SQ government. The TransCransia 2040 is a road project that envisions a strong terrestrial economic connection across the Cransian continent. This proposal replaces the abandoned KJ Canal 2025 proposal, an ambitious artificial south-to-north waterway from Fraine to Lichania. According to XKZ President's Spokesperson, the proposed trade routes will start from the northern points of Cakeland and Cutland down to the coasts of Auscania and Bonevil, making it one of the longest roads in the world. The funding for the infrastructure will be allocated by the countries that agreed on the proposal. Meanwhile, the DPWTC's state-to-state highway in Mainland Auscania and Weginson is still on-going and is expected to be finished by 2020. 21 | The city of Guineveere now started the construction of pavilions for the First Cransian Exposition 2021 with the theme "Shaping the New Future of Cransian Society." The exposition will be attended by 16 countries featuring their own innovations. The Auscania is expected to showcase the great architecture and sustainable urban planning of the country. 24 | UCTW: Here is the 2017 Corruption Perception Index of Cransia. SWI, NOR, and CTR maintained their low corruption rate with a line of nine, while ASC's score goes down by 0.5; ranking behind the impressive GIB and tied with ELG. Unfortunately, CNO is the most corrupt that year. 31 | DPWTC: The Department of Public Works released the first Mainland Auscanian National Rail Route Diagram that includes the proposed Trans-Cransia 2040 and the still-under-construction projects. For a high-quality view, here's the PDF document link: http://docdro.id/4RxiLji September 20 | DoSci: The Hurricane "Gayena" in Northeast Cransia has caused massive flooding in the Kent Island, North and South Harbor, as well as in Canapore and the southern provinces of Norgesdan. This is by far the most destructive storm in 2018. 25 | President Marc CS.GS supported the Cakeland's TransCransia 2040 scheme. On the bilateral meeting, the proposals for Castria-Auscania-Bonevil connection was discussed and elaborated, with the construction period expected to start by 2021. Meanwhile, multimodal transportation is also envisioned for Fraine-Auscanian connection; however, it is secluded from the said project. 25 | Part of the 2019's government transition, President Marc CS.GS signed an Act that reorganizes the seven principal departments of the executive branch into nine including the independent agencies. Changes include the separation of the Dept. of Sports from the renamed Dept. of Education, Culture & Arts (DECA), as well as the Dept. of Justice from the Dept. of Civilian Security, Democracy & Development (DCSDD). The DOA's Agrarian Reform and Rural Development (ARRD) joined with the DCSDD, while the research services, food security, and nutrition council are now under the Department of Science and Technology (DOST). October 18 | The SQ government started the fiscal year with a failure due to the ALSF's two-week evaluation last September 14. According to DOE, the low production rate of the secondary sector resulted in a poor review from ALSF, which delayed the authorization period and worsened the over-all performance of the country for the first quarter. Nonetheless, in cooperation with the HC, the government is still working on improvements for the remaining quarters. 20 | The Commissions on Elections (COE) launches the "SQGE 2019: The Reflection of New Auscania" theme for the Executive and Legislative Elections on June 2019. The theme emphasizes the election as a significant event to choose an individual that reflects a true Auscanian leader and public servant. The logo also features the national flag formed into a ballot box which represents the security of voters' rights and embracing change. Apart from the launching, the COE formally opened the filing of candidacies and nominees of party-list groups last week. 20 | President Marc CS.GS and his family were planning to conduct a house blessing into the new Square Palace on the Founding Anniversary Celebration on November 12. Designed by no other -- the President, this six-story "circular" Square Palace will be the official residence of the first family of Auscania separated from the existing executive complex.
The Palace features the 50m-diameter dome with an oculus for the natural lighting of the house, an indoor swimming pool, double Clementine columns, and the Grand Nassia Clementina statue. The construction spanned three years, with a total cost of five million sand dollars. Comments are closed.
