After the issue between the two countries happened yesterday, the Cutland President PL broke her silence, and finally admitted the reason behind the relinquishment of Haewon, in which the side of BK government is correct. Here is the statement from our Department of Arms Control and International Security (DACIS) Secretary NH last month:
"... your government have been approved the treaty, and therefore, is already legal. If they are aware of our unlawful actions, they will not approve it. If they have care for Haewon, they will not sign it for the lame reason that the conflict may affect other countries, in which is not true because in fact, it was also the time that your country is also collapsing, and our conflict is, exclusively between our countries." Her statement had made on the news headlines, and here's what the Cutland citizens reacted; They were totally disappointed on the embarrassment brought by the Ministry of Defense Secretary, and still can't accept that their country is making a historical mistake. The President's intention on that secret is just to make everything fine, and not to make people worried about their country's economic status before. Not condemning her Secretary's statement, however, the President had a meeting with her Secretary and only discussed some accurate information about this issue. The Secretary then apologized to her as for being impulsive on that thing. Although the two embarrassed on that historical mistake, she stated that she cannot remember that the Ilnykee Islands were also included in the relinquishment. Since it is the main issue, she wants to bring it to the United Cransia Convention on the Law of the Sea for formal hearings. Meanwhile, the Secretary will still continue on his stand on disputing the islands, and will plan to visit it in April, after the Louswand Winter Olympics. On the other hand, The DACIS accepted the Cutland President's deal to bring it, but will not stop on monitoring and taking control the islands. The 2016's First Louswand Winter KJ Olympics had already celebrated its grand Opening Ceremony last March 19 at Winter Olympic Park Stadium, although it was delayed by a month due to unpreparedness to the event proper. With the city's logo "The Heat of Hearts Within", the Ceremony was gathered by 30,000 spectators around the continent. The Games will be a two-week event, opening its gate for 1,301 athletes from 10 nations, and 98 events over 15 disciplines in 7 sports. So far, the Bikini is leading the over-all medal tally of the said games, with 16 gold medals, 21 silver medals, and 12 bronze medals. Issues The issues in KJ Olympics were not new as expected when it comes to unpreparedness. Even the First Summer KJ Olympiad Host City, Fendin, experienced a 2 ½ year cramming on site planning, design revisions, expenditures, and organizing construction timeline. Fortunately, it was held successfully last year, and graded as "A-" in over-all score of preparedness. The Fendin Olympic Park is still under new construction for the future events, with several stadiums and sports halls are being built. Meanwhile, the Louswand also crammed for 3-year preparation, including the expenditures, construction deadlines, and the city's warm temperature and snow shortage. The city also had a hiatus of branding last 2013 and 2014 that caused failure to meet the city government’s expectation to attract tourists that are supposed to be arriving to Louswand before and after the Games.
They were supposed to host the event on the second week of February, however, was postponed due to the venues that aren't yet ready to accommodate a number of anticipated spectators. The disappointment of the KJ-Intercontinental Olympic Committee towards Louswand Organizing Committee of the KJ Olympic Games (LOCKOG) initially goes to the decision on cancelling the Games permanently, but the LOCKOG disagreed and planned to be moved on March 19. Despite that the month of March is the start of spring season in Cutland and the snow shortage will be more increased, the city still continued the Games, with some of the alpine sports venues were relocated on the northern region of the country in cooperation with the city mayors of Galden and Kurn. Consequently, the LOCKOG is now facing the problem with transportation fees from central to north. With several problems within the city, the LOCKOG will still provide good quality of services until the Games will end on 31st of March. While the comeback of the country had made strong ties with the Swirgesdan, it seems that the BK is now having a major conflict with the country of Cutland. The conflict began since when the BK government had occupied the lands of Haewon on the southern portion of Cutland in the year 2013 as part of growing success in the country. The tension between the two is already starting to grow, but was peacefully relinquished by the Cutland government to avoid the widespread conflict among other Cransia’s countries. Today, it is the Cutland's turn to make revenge towards Bikini. Last year, when the separation of lands occurred, it also happened that the BK government started to monitor the Ilnykee Island, in which may be considered as the next possible territory or state of the country. According to the Cutland Ministry of Defense, the said island is not included in their signed treaty of relinquishment. The way that the BK government is doing to the Islands of Ilnykee is very illegal, and is proving to the Cransian countries that their government is making moves again to promote war. “Isn’t it ironic that a self-proclaimed ambassador of peace before, now reveals its true character towards Cransian countries? It is no wonder why this country is considered by everyone as the greatest country in the whole continent – they are good in deceiving and targeting other lands.” “We deserve the right to own Ilnykee islands because it is our mine. By the way, in the first place, Haewon is our mine too.” he added. The Bikini before been well known for occupying lands in an informal way, in which the Southern portion of Idol Land, now Weginson, was the country's fourth organized incorporated territory in the year 2011. It was followed by the Haewon territory in the year 2012. The Brinsland territory in 2013 was the country's first formal occupation since the Junior Land collapsed after the Great Fall of 2011. On the other side, The Bikinean Council and the Department of Arms Control and International Security (DACIS) Secretary NH answered all the accusations.
“First of all, we are aware of our government's unlawful actions before, and we do not condemn it, anyways. However, your government have been approved the treaty, and therefore, is already legal. If they are aware of our unlawful actions, they will not approve it. If they have care for Haewon, they will not sign it for the lame reason that the conflict may affect other countries, in which is not true because in fact, it was also the time that your country is also collapsing, and our conflict is, exclusively between our countries. Secondly, the Ilnykee Islands are part of Haewon since it is a territory of Gwan-do Region. Therefore, it is our mine. Lastly, the today's administration is now running the government in an appropriate, formal and legal way. Therefore, there are no other nations being trampled by our moves towards Ilnykee, except for the one having now an interest on it, and are pretending that they were robbed in this situation.” The two founders and presidents of Cutland and Bikini remained silent on that issue. Meanwhile, the Cutland Secretary is still making the conflict bigger; the Cutland will not stop the disputes on Ilnykee Islands, and will provide concrete evidence that the islands are not a part of the relinquishment. The conflict may be brought up to the upcoming Olympic Games in March since the Louswand will host the First KJ Winter Olympics. During a month of silence in the BK government, President Marc, CS.GS was preparing for a comeback, reinforcing good friendship with the Cransia’s new country, Swirgesdan. Since the new nations were established last year, the government already foresees the progress among its neighboring countries, including the Belusia, Port Sebastia, Cartegal, Fraine, and Castria According to Brinsland Divisional President Jack, E.CD., sharing similar visions, goals, and ideals with Swirgesdan can make long-term benefits for both countries.
Same with the BK President’s field of profession, Swirgesdan President Joshua, DS also made a statement, being thankful for choosing their country as one of the BK's trusted partners. The country of Bikini is not the only one that persuades the said new nations, but the countries of Elmognassia and Cakeland as well. They are also making annexes on the larger lands and scattered islands, imitating what the BK government has done to Brinsland and Haewon. However, the BK citizens were disappointed on its comeback, stating that the government is just making to be dependent on the starting countries so that it would cover up the failing system of the country. According to one unknown citizen, “The government's concerns must be on our country itself, not on others." "I think they are starting to forget that the federal system of Bikini is now collapsing, and they still give most of their attention only on the state of Greater Sydwyn and other progressing states. They spend a lot on providing economic support on starting countries than the basic needs of each citizen here in the country. The effect is pretty obvious on its Social Progress Index,” he added. Defended by the Department of Economics (DOE) Secretary Suzy, H.GS., the basic needs of every Bikinean are still always the main focus of the government as it is indicated on the country’s basic principles. But the purpose of the government’s actions toward Swirgesdan and other new nations is to boost their roles in the continent as it is stated on the United Cransia’s mission. “We are now avoiding the next Great Fall, in which most of the new countries in 2014 were badly affected by the economic, social, and cultural conflicts.” She added. Meanwhile, the United Cransia is now accomplishing the half-semester’s evaluation requirements, as well as the progress index, and will return for the final growth score on the month of April. These evaluations had made its strict regulatory measures, including the lowering of GDP equivalent scores. 2/21/2016 Bikini, Castria, and Guillmane: The first three countries to become LGBT-friendly in CransiaRead Now According to the results of a new poll conducted by the Merr Research Center and the Department of Civilian Security and Democracy (DCSD), the Republic of Bikini ranks first as the Cransia's most LGBT-friendly. The LGBT or GLBT is an initialism that stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender that promotes a healthy, equal and vibrant society, as well as raising awareness, education, and presence of LGBT issues in a certain country. Of Bikineans interviewed, 46% said homosexuality was morally acceptable, compared with 10% who said it was unacceptable and 43% who answered that it's "not a moral issue." It's important to note that the rankings are based on percentage of respondents who classified homosexuality as morally unacceptable. Not surprisingly, the country of Elmognassia has the lowest tolerance, where 82% of citizens replied that homosexuality is morally unacceptable.
Despite of being a predominantly Catholic and megadiverse country, the percentage of tolerance would be higher. However, the Council is not yet decided on the legal rights of same-sex marriage. Although is not yet legalized, The Council is providing an alternative form of legal recognition other than marriage on a national level instead. This is currently available in the countries of Australia, Chile, Colombia, etc. Meanwhile, the countries of Castria and Guillmane are also making its way to promote awareness, understanding, and respect among homosexuals. The Norgesdan and Cartegal are edging out the two said countries, but they have high unacceptable percentage as they are compared to. The twelfth day of November is another glorious day in the year 2015 for millions of Bikineans that have been united to celebrate the much-awaited fifth year anniversary of the establishment of the country of Bikini, with their different ways across the continent. The Bikini has proven its excellence and progress in span of five years, still the fastest country in developing a healthy and united society in the Cransian continent.
Every three years of the second week of April, the people elect leaders, from the President to Secretary, with the process of electing one from a party. However, campaigning the party or the leader itself on pre-election is a big cost, and needs a lot of efforts to gain votes from the people, including the tv advertisements. Added by the doubtful and unnecessary actions, such as vote buying, these make the politics dirty and unworthy.
