Indeed, welcome! There is much in store in this great region of ours.
After much deliberation, the Saiwanian government has decided to rejoin the World Assembly- in light of the organization satisfactorily repealing "Legalizing Prostitution" and passing a resolution which implements the right of nations to choose whether to legalize it or not. Our reason for resigning from the WA seems to no longer be an issue and so we are happy to participate in it once again. This will be the last action approved by President Seagan, who is retiring. A new election will be held soon for his replacement.
Best regards, on behalf of the CFRS.
God Bless Texas.
**** New WA Resolution Notification *****
There is currently a new General Asssembly Resolution at vote. When expressing your opinion, please note which Resolution it is for. And remember Texans, your individual vote does count!
The new Resolution is called:
"Repeal "Medical Blockade Restriction"
A resolution to repeal previously passed legislation
Category: Repeal Resolution: GA#74 Proposed by: Connopolis
Description: WA General Assembly Resolution #74: Medical Blockade Restriction (Category: Free Trade; Strength: Strong) shall be struck out and rendered null and void.
Argument: The General Assembly,
LAUDING the intent of GAR#74 - that being, to allow medical supplies"...
<see page=ga for full text>
Yehaw, we have a Repeal. When this one came around for a vote in January, 2010, Texans liked it by a margin of 10-4. There was no ambivalence on that one. We were a little concerned that the term "Medical Supplies" should cover more than just life-saving things, but ultimately got over it and was one of the for votes. Texans liked the first one and we still like it despite the repeal author's worries about arms riding on the same boat as medicine. We don't care if you have a Desert Eagle sitting on a box of penicillin when you deliver it. If you try and unload the Desert Eagle or use it, the results will be the same with or without this Resolution. As a reminder, the issue here is the REPEAL of the existing law. A vote AGAINST this Resolution means you are in favor of the existing law and do not want it repealed. A vote FOR this Resolution means you want the law off the books. NewTexas will go on record as AGAINST on this Resolution. This is only the opinion of NewTexas. We look forward to other Texans' opinions and comments on this Resolution. If good arguments to the contrary are made, we will reconsider our position.
The Texas response rate was down on the last GA vote [A Decriminalization of Suicide], which was passed after gaining 83.84% of the vote. As a reminder, all we are looking for is a simple 10% of Texans to say one way or another. We are a force for change in the WA. Every vote counts! There were 10 opinions expressed on the last Resolution with the final Texas tally running 6 FOR and 3 AGAINST and 1 ABSTAIN and 0 UNDECIDED. Texans were mostly for that human rights one.
NewTexas is open to suggestions on how we should vote on this Resolution to most accurately reflect opinion of the populace. All comments are welcome from all nations, both WA Members as well as those who are not. *As always, the WA Delegate vote will be based on popular opinion.*
Please make your voice heard on the current issue either on this message board or on our offsite message board. But, by all means, please vote on the WA Page!
If you would like to take part in shaping the world you live in, please vote. Voting is a right and a privilege, please consider using it.
All WA Member nations please vote. Please make your opinions known by 11:00pm Saturday as voting ends at 11:00pm Texas Time on Sunday the 5th. Current voting in The World is running - Votes FOR: 2803 Votes AGAINST: 867

PS: Don't forget to vote!
I just stopped by to clarify NewTexas's argument. Perhaps a more ample application of the flaw in practice would be:
Nation A is being blockaded due to their tremendous belligerence in the area. Nations B, C, and D decided it would be in their best interest to prevent Nation A from causing too much trouble. Here comes Nation E, however, which sympathizes with Nation A. Nation E decides to utilize this loophole by transporting nuclear weapons to Nation A - albeit, legally, because there's a medical syringe included with the cargo.
Succinctly, this loophole negates the entire purpose of the resolution - not only doesn't it accomplish its initial purpose, but serves as a detriment; this resolution effectively prevents blockades. If I wasn't clear, feel free to telegram me about your concerns.
Cheers,
The purposed replacement resolution so far is not to our liking. Therefore we are currently changing our vote on the repeal to UNDECIDED. Should our concerns be answered by Sun morning, we will vote for the repeal. If not, we will vote against.

I'd just like to point out that Connopolis' argument here is balderdash. There is no "loophole". Under GAR#74 you can stop and search vessels. If there are weapons on board they can be seized. How this dishonest, disingenuous repeal ever got to vote is beyond me and I encourage all Texans to vote AGAINST.
Hi. I just join. I'm the guys who created timsvill.
Coach House Circly gave the correct answer, five. One more question.
Question: The NationStates Bunny and TimDauwalter, starting at the same point, walk in opposite directions for 4 meters, turn left and walk another 3 meters. What is the distance between them?
