Parliament of the Artanian Community (PAC)

The APP votes nay.

Theresa Aarts, memeber of GDAP and NG.

Why does the app vote nay?

[NuclearGandhi69]

It grants a none Artanian Country many favourable trade rights and can lead to the loss of many Artanian Jobs.

Theresa Aarts, memeber of GDAP and NG.

But it works also the other way around, Londanium people can buy cheaper and easier products of our nations. And because we are bigger there are a lot of fields that they cannot, or will be very difficult to, compete with us.

Alex Vleugel, Leader of the SDAC

The SDAC believes this proposal is a step in the right direction and would allow our citizens to enjoy great economic opportunities in Lodamun if desired. Furthermore passing this proposal would be a landmark achievement and truly open Artania to much more possibilities in the future. If the vote is opened we shall vote aye and call on our colleagues to do the same

[NuclearGandhi69]

Adriana Bradt, member of the APP,

We do not support this since we believe that ACON should be used to form an economic union of Artanian countries which promotes Artanian internal trade and Artanian companies.

[hungpallax]

Theresa Aarts, memeber of GDAP and NG.

We don't see why this is then a problem, we support this legislation.

[NuclearGandhi69]

Adriana Bradt, member of the APP,

We also call into question the decision to let Maliva join ACON. How can this happen if they claim many countries in this organisation?

Secretary of Artanian Economic Affairs Dadabhvai Dheer

I propose to strip all rights from Malivia as soon as they officialy join because of there Criminal tribes act, Blasphemy Act, Zamindari Reform Act, Military stance on homosexuality, The government's policy concerning child labour and the greater Malavia act. The santions I propose: kick them from the ECEZ, deny them funds, and deny them voting rights. We see this neccesary aslong as Malavia hold up these laws. We would reject them but that is by nature not possible.
