New “Special Rapporteur” Posts Created
The Coordinating Council, in an extraordinary session called by President Matal Dandi, approved legislation creating six “Special Rapporteur” posts. These posts, a flagship policy of the new Am’mayi Government, would cover areas such as the environment and regional development, which Leader of the Government Nirtyam Am’mayi has described as neglected by previous administrations.
Free market, free country, free people
Socialism isn’t the only way! As Mel-akkam’s first opposition party, the Liberal Democrats have delivered free market governance with the goal of building a prosperous nation of free, independent people. As they say, a rising tide floats all boats – and we will rise the tide more than anyone.
Our Promises:
Increasing our GDP by 50% in 5 years
The privatisation of the economy, providing ample funding for social programmes and investments
Less crime through more police and slum clearance

Floods Ravage Amri Province
Annual floods of the Indus River broke through defences in several rural areas of Amri Province, killing at least 80 individuals and submerging hundreds of square kilometres of farmland. Amri authorities have yet to comment on the incident.
For peace and progress!
The Mel-akkan Progressive Party has always fought for freedom, social justice, and inclusion. Like we freed our nation from the British, so too will we free all citizens from poverty, discrimination, and inequality. A vote for us is a vote for freedom, socialism, and most importantly, progress.
Our Promises:
Low inequality, and a 90% income tax on the ultra-wealthy
The nationalisation of all industries, spreading the nation’s wealth among the people
Equal rights for all Mel-akkans, regardless of race, gender, or sexual orientation
