Greetings to you, my fellow Comrades of the twelfth Cabinet of the DSA! ![]() I congratulate you all for being elected/reelected to your Cabinet positions and I eagerly look forward to working with all of you this term. I would like everyone to review your job descriptions in the Charter. I encourage all first-timers to freely ask any and all questions about your ministerial duties, either here or by telegram with those who have held your position in the past. If you think you will have difficulty fulfilling your duties, I encourage you to appoint an adviser and/or request help from volunteers in the Government Jobs subforum. Below is my agenda for this term. I invite each of you to provide any feedback and to also provide any additional ideas or initiatives that you would like for your Ministries to pursue over the next 75 days. I will be busy in RL this term and will not be around as much as I'd like to be. However, I aim to be available to answer questions and check in with your Ministries at least once a week (usually weekends). Without further ado, my agenda: Office of the President and WA Delegate: 1. Regional Polls: I would like us to have a much better picture of how residents see the region and their place in it so that we can target initiatives that will increase activity and boost morale. 2. Featured 5: I will renew the weekly roster. This boosts morale and increases dialogue and intrigue between Comrades; so I will make sure to do this regularly. Office of the Secretary General: 1. Audit the congressional roster in the Forum; make updates to roles/statuses as necessary. 2. Organize an evaluation of the 11th Cabinet. 3. If you wish, appoint an adviser to help point you in the right direction. Ministry of Foreign Affairs: 1. Draft and deliver formal apology to the residents of the old Alliance for the trespasses of New Puppy City. 2. Offer your recommendations for accepting/rejecting current embassy requests from abroad. 3. Distribute puppets to allied regions and announce your new position with a warm greeting from your ministry and the DSA. 4. Review current alliances and their regional statuses; compile brief intelligence report for the Cabinet. 5. Give recommendations for closure of embassies (if any) and/or new alliances to form (if any). Ministry of Immigration and Regional Promotion: 1. Keep up the good work! Despite heavy losses due to mass-CTE, our region still hovers around 285 - a significant improvement from the recent past. 2. Keep the Cabinet updated about any interregional or world-wide conferences, or anything else that you think would be a good venue in which to promote our region. Ministry of Justice: 1. Remedy any loose ends left from the previous Minister between their untimely absence and now. 2. Audit region for Charter compliance and begin proceedings for violators, if any. Report findings directly to the Secretary General so that they may update the Congressional Roster accordingly. Ministry of Domestic Affairs: 1. Host a new discussion/debate in the Forum and advertise it in both Solidarity and with posts on the RMB. 2. Hold a contest for anything you'd like. In the past we have done things like best factbook entry, best flag, best motto, etc. 3. In the RMB, personally welcome newcomers with a quick post. 4. Compile a new daily or weekly bulletin (like the DDD or Proletariat Press) to summarize things that are going on in the Forum, the NS World, and RL as well. Ministry of Role Play: 1. Map updates if any. 2. Solidify or create new notes for the regional LCD currency. 3. Introduce a resolution for the DSA Parliament. 4. Host a new RP activity in the Forum. Please do not hesitate to ask questions. I encourage you to put forth your new ideas and discussion. I wish you all a successful and enjoyable term

So... let's talk about the World Fair bid we're going to put in. This should be a collaborative effort between several people to represent the region as a whole. I'm thinking of forming a bidding committee to expedite the work while still maintaining a collaboration on the project. The MIRP would be the most obvious member given that this sort of event is part of the office's duties. The MDA would also take part as the officer that is supposed to have their hand on the pulse of the region. Then Gervase and Rat volunteered and I just can't turn them down. (I know it seems like a tad much, but having a committee will definitely make it easier to host if we win and to plan our venue even if we don't.) Oh. Post number 666, baby! This committee idea is definitely a conspiracy and totally the spawn of Satan.

Here are the Featured Five proposals for next week (I'll be away during the weekend, that's why we have an early submission): Korbata Americanada Radius New Socialist Liberty Aloshia I know that Korbata was featured before, but I don't know when (the list with the featured nations does not include the featuring dates). By the way, who should keep that list up to date? Is it the MDA's responsibility? Is it a problem if a nation was featured before and it's featured again during another cabinet's mandate? If so, then please replace Korbata with Torchwood 58. If not, please keep Korbata. |

I'm assuming the "Nation does not meet Charter requirements" are Charter members, correct? |

I kept a detailed list back during my half-year reign That was when it was harder to get active Cabinet members; so I picked the featured 5 myself and so it made sense that I keep the record. After I retired from government, I stopped keeping track.Since the MDA is choosing the featured 5 it makes sense that the MDA keeps the list up-to-date and available under the MDA ministerial folder in the forum for future MDAs to use and refer back to. I don't see a problem with some repeats since 1.5 years in NS time is like forever ago; so whomever you choose for the list, I will post them on the WFE respectively. I was also wondering if you would be able to start working on the daily/weekly news stuff. I am thinking that a more effective way to get people in the region to start reading Solidarity more often would be to post it there rather than in the RMB like we used to do. Then we could just announce when the publication is finished in the RMB and people could go to the site to read it. I am willing to help, but I'm too busy to take it on by myself. One section I was thinking would be cool to add is a featured factbook entry from the DSA. Just today I discovered a new one: http://www.nationstates.net/nation=fraztovia/detail=factbook/id=246188 I think this could be a fun way to get nations to be checking out and interacting with others here in the region. Let me know your thoughts! |
