I think one thing we need to focus on is maintaining good ties with the local citizens- imPorts shouldn't act like they're above the law just because they find it inconvenient.

Also, while I have... concerns about our hosts, I think we should follow the example of the previous group of imPorts- find allies in the government and military, and work with them to push reforms and calm paranoia.

Yes, our predecessors set a most inspiring example for us, didn't they? They proved that reform is possible, and that the authorities can be challenged. It is unfortunate that so many of the records from that time are sealed and censored. It is difficult to follow an example that one cannot properly study.

Rest assured that promoting order and cooperation will be a part of my platform. I would not be participating in this process if I did not think the system was worth working within. But I must note that it may be challenging to address the many concerns imPorts have with our gracious hosts, without arousing some controversy with the native citizens. The civilians get their information from the media, and the media tends to be quite... supportive to those in power.

Perhaps that's another area where we should seek out friends, then?

There's too much paranoia, even when you take into account that the concern about spies wasn't unfounded.

[dun_moch]

Perhaps so. I don't suppose you know of any sympathetic journalists, do you? Ones with the platform and credibility to dissent?

[bindsthedead]

Unfortunately, I don't. That doesn't mean they don't exist though- just that we'll need to put effort in to seeking them out.

I could swear I replied to this...

I admire your attitude. We should not fear challenges, regardless of how great the obstacles in our path. And effort is one thing I can promise no shortage of, if I am elected Ambassador.

I would be honoured to have the support of a hero as accomplished as you in my campaign, Sabriel. Tell me, what else would you like to see from the new Ambassador for Maurtia Falls?
