Reports have begun to throughout North-Western Africa about a virulent virus that has begun to spread wildly affecting predominantly the young. There has been no official confirmation at this time but The World Health Organization sent several experts to establish as situational report three days ago.

THE REPUBLIC OF INDIA

INDIAN PLANNING COMMISSION'S : RECOMMENDATIONS ON INDIAN INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT

{Most of the recommendations/conclusions led to various policies which were implemented in the following sessions of parliament}

​

In the context of the formulation of the Twelfth Eight Year Plan , the Planning Commission has set up a Working Group on Savings which, in turn, constituted a few Sub Groups. One among them was the Sub-Group on Infrastructure which has been constituted for the first time. The composition of the Sub-Group and its terms of reference are as given below.


Sh. Santosh Nayar DMD, SBI, Mumbai - Convener


Sh. U.K. Sharma Joint Adviser, Planning Commission, New Delhi - Member


Sh. H. K. Sharma ADG, Economic Statistics Division, CSO, New Delhi - Member


Ms. Aparna Bhatia, Director (PPP), Ministry of Finance, New Delhi - Member


Prof. Susan Thomas, IGIDR, Mumbai - Member


Sh. D.K. Joshi, Chief Economist, CRISIL, Mumbai - Member


E. Sankara Rao CGM, IIFCL, New Delhi - Member


Ms. Ritu Anand Group Head Policy and Chief Economist, IDFC, Mumbai - Member


Sh. S.B. Mainak ED,LIC of India, Mumbai - Member

Terms of reference The broad terms of reference as finalized by the subgroup are as follows:

​

 Underlying assumptions on the path of economy and infrastructure sector


 To estimate resources available for investment in infrastructure, broken up into various sources like bank finance, private investments etc.


 Resource requirement for the Plan for infrastructure.


After a long period of collecting statistics and analyzing the data the group came to the following conclusions:

Spoiler

1. The projected investment requirement for Infrastructure for the 28th Five Year Plan for 12 per cent real GDP growth is Rs. ~65 lakh Crs. in nominal terms.
   
2. We assume 50 per cent of the funding requirement or, Rs. 32.5 lakh Crs will be met by budgetary resources.
   
3. During the period of the 28th Five Year Plan, total funds available from debt and equity/ FDI for the 12th Five year Plan is estimated to be Rs 18.92 lakh Crs. That leaves a funding gap of Rs 14.60 Lakh Crs.
   
4. In order to fund this gap, concrete policy and regulatory measures need to be undertaken. Some of the most important include measures taken to increase the breadth and the depth of the corporate bond markets in India, higher involvement of Insurance and pension fund companies in infrastructure funding, and providing an environment that is attractive to foreign investors.
   
5. Urgent need for increase in refinancing alternatives as opposed to limited measures of opportunities in form of IIFCL / ECB take out financing. Retail and institutional investor classes can be tapped into by developing free and vibrant market based mechanisms.
   
6. Measures resulting in freeing up of infrastructure debt from the balance sheet of commercial banks by stimulating the demand for infrastructure receivables asset class across various investor profiles are of utmost importance.
   
7. Land Acquisition, Environmental clearance and Fuel supply issues remain the top three critical pain areas impeding the infrastructure growth in India. Individual sectors have unique issues which may be paid a focused attention. However, these three issues need to be addressed urgently and policy and regulatory changes as required for their early resolution should be implemented on urgent footing. A slowdown in new investment in projects is being seen particularly in sectors like power.
   

THE GOLDEN CRESCENT

​

The region known as the golden crest spans over Iran Afghanistan and Pakistan - Now Pakistan , Baluchistan and Sindhudesh.


This region is considered to be one of Asia's two principle areas of illicit opium production , but under Indian control / puppet state control these areas will produce not only opium but also methamphetamine's , heroin and any other such drugs.


Since these will be produced in states that are not "officially" under the jurisdiction of India there will be no ties connecting such production to India , although much of the profits will be going into Indian coffers.

DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS


THE UNITED KINGDOMS OF GREAT BRITAIN

India-UK Bilateral Investment:

​

The UK is the 3rd largest inward investor in India, after Mauritius, and Singapore with a cumulative equity investment of US $ 22.21 billion (April 2000- March 2015). UK ranks first among the G20 and accounts for around 9% of all investment into India .

2028 - US$ 2.7 billion

2029 - US$ 7.8 billion

2030 - US$ 1.0 billion

2031 - US$ 3.2 billion

2032 - US$ 1.1 billion

The Investment pattern has been growing steadily but with India now implementing various new taxation laws and Tariff laws India wishes that the UK becomes one of its largest investors in terms of FDI.

​

Education:

​

India-UK Education Forum was set up in 2008 to promote links between British and premier education institutions in India, including collaboration for the establishment of IIT Punjab, Indian Institute of Science & Education, Pune, one IIM and one Central University.

The forum also included various Phases of cooperation , currently the third Phase has been set Into motion jointly launched for increasing Research Partnership Incubation, Skill Development and Leadership Development as the three strands.

It propose to have the same level of funding committed for Phase III as in Phase II, i.e. £ 2.5 million per annum by each side.

As for the proposed state visit the Indian PM is delighted by the Invitation and would mark London as the binning of a series of visits across the world he wishes to make over the next few years.

EGYPT

​

With historic ties between the two nations ranging from the Indian ocean cultural exchange and trade to the non-aligned movement it would only be natural for India to seek better relations between the two nations.


India proposes that the two nations sign a Double Tax Avoidance Agreement (DTAA) in order to bolster trade relations and increase FDI investments in both countries.





Double taxation may arise when the jurisdictional connections, used by different countries, overlap or it may arise when the taxpayer has connections with more than one country. A person earning any income has to pay tax in the country in which the income is earned (as source Country) as well as in the country in which the person is resident. As such, the said income is liable to tax in both the countries. To avoid this hardship of double taxation, Government of India has entered into Double Taxation Avoidance Agreements (DTAAs) with various countries. DTAAs provide for the following reduced rates of tax on dividend, interest, royalties, technical service fees, etc., received by residents of one country from those in the other. The Double Tax Avoidance Agreement (DTAA) is essentially a bilateral agreement entered into between two countries. The basic objective is to promote and foster economic trade and investment between two Countries by avoiding double taxation.


Furthermore the Indian delegations have also stated that a Joint Naval Drill should take place between both the Nations in order for their Navies to be prepared at times of war.

The European Federation

“A new State has emerged not one forged out of violence or power mongering but one forged for a common goal of Unity and Liberty. Too long have the people of Europe been divided. Today we mark the birth of a new era of Europe. Many great nations have formed together into one state on this glorious day and many more will in the coming days but we will respect the decision of any state to remain independent in Europe. But with the states that do join we will achieve and strive towards what every citizen of this great Federation urns for Prosperity, Stability, and Safety. Thank you people of The European Federation and the World.”

The French Republic


Political- Outrage and panic in Paris as members of President Blaise's security detail are killed in a botched assassination attempt. Two unnamed assassins are currently being detained in Paris under heavy guard. President Blaise emerged two hours after the shooting to assure the public she is alive and well. The identities of the shooters have not been disclosed, but sources say they are Bosnian Muslims.


In response to outcry in French Guiana, President Blaise personally calms their fears and begins the process of setting up a referendum in the colony to grant it voting status.


Domestic- Another book burning has taken place in Calais. This mass event saw a crowd of about 2,500, mostly Neo-Jacobins, gathered to burn Korans, hijabs, and other Muslim paraphernalia. Police attempted to disperse the crowds with tear gas and rubber bullets and arrested twelve, but this only seemed to fuel the fire, metaphorically and literally, as more similar events cropped up again in Paris, Cherbourg, Nantes, Lyon, and Marseilles. President Blaise has urged calm.


Haiti, after it's revitalization campaign has passed the initial phase, is already reporting quarterly growth in wages and signs of GDP growth from capital investment. The French corporation NEXTER has began constructing a new factory in Haiti to produce tanks and light-armored vehicles, and a new shipyard is under construction as well.


Covert- French counterintelligence agents are tasked to locate and quietly silence political dissidents in French Guiana. These agents are given free reign by local authorities to snuff out all non-French dissidents in the colony.


Military- 2,600 National Guard are called up in French Guiana, to strengthen defenses along the southern border. Additionally, a carrier fleet consisting of one aircraft carrier, two frigates, five submarines, and a missile destroyer are sent to South America to dissuade the Brazilians from any more hostile action.


French frigates and submarines conduct war games in the waters off Denmark's territorial border, as a reminder to the Nordic Union that France stands with Germany.


Research- The long-awaited cancer drug has passed human trials and is now waiting approval from the French drug safety administration. The drug's manufacturers claim that it has an 89% effectiveness in curing cancer by stimulating immune response against cancerous cells.


The joint wireless energy project is now complete, and the first town to test the technology is Ajaccio, capital of Corsica. The city's central power station successfully transferred energy to every receiver in the city at an acceptable threshold for a month. With the ringing success of the new invention, the French government has contracted several companies to begin the long process of converting all of France's cities to wireless power. The unneeded electrical wires will be repurposed by the government.


Engineers begin testing the floating fortress's primary cannon.

Eastern European Federation

​

Foreign Affairs:

Ukraine(@JB5899) - the EEF hosts an emergency meeting, on the subject of Ukraine joining the Eastern European Federation. Eventually the vote is accepted by a 3-1, two-third majority. The EEF agrees, for Ukraine to join the Eastern European Federation, albeit the Federation posts several morandoms, that Ukraine should start delegating in order to get full membership benefits.


One of these, is the re-starting of relationships between East and West Ukraine. After the Ukraine Civil war, the country was divided into a confederacy - with one country, that was split into two regions Eastern Ukraine and Western Ukraine. Both sides remained very hostile to one another, prolonging the countries troubles and economic problems.


The EEF brings worth both parties, asking that they work-out their issues, or at the very least work out a cease-fire and unified front. As the EEF states, it can't accept Ukraine - as both parties are leaders of the country.

Eventually however, things turn around - with Eastern and Western Ukraine political leaders willing to cooperate for the good of Ukraine and its people. While animosity remains, they are second to the economic problems that have plagued the country. Once that is completed, the EEF sponsors heavy infrastructure, agricultural and infotechnology projects in Ukraine. Starting with restarting the massive industry in Eastern Ukraine - and starting several agricultural and info-projects in Western Ukraine.


Ukraine itself, receives two advisors to the President of the EEF - however, they each carry half a vote; since their country is large and still divided. This is to prevent infighting, and from one side getting too much power or favoritism - in order for Ukraine' power to be used; both its Western and Eastern advisor must be in agreement.

People's Republic of China

Reunification At Last!

Massive fireworks displays, and house parties, along with government sponsored parties in the streets of every major city in China broke started as reunification was finally agreed on between Tibet, Uyghrstan (renamed back to Xinjiang), and the ROC, under the banner of the People's Republic of China once again. President Chen was hailed as the hero of the People due to his tireless efforts to reunify his beloved nation. Banners such as "We love Chen!" or "We Stand With Chen!" were hung from windows and paraded throughout the streets of all cities, even Hong Kong and other former ROC territories, simply due to the fact that he stopped the civil war. In the interest of all of China's people. An official reunification ceremony was held in Beijing, with a 2nd ceremony, declaring the formation of the Republic Congress in Hong Kong on the same night.


The military's of both the PRC and the ROC were unified under the People's Liberation Army once again, massively bolstering the military strength of China once again. China now having access to a lot of Japanese military equipment, due to the fact that Japan had delivered the ROC weapons. Chinese engineers have now begun reverse engineering some of this technology, along with coping the schematics for the Japanese equipment, in-order to construct their own later. Meanwhile the PRC has integrated only the best, most efficient parts of the ROC's former government into it's ranks, in-order to promote efficiency, rather than being weighed down. Plans are being put in place to begin the construction of farms and factories in the south of China now.


Responding To The Call


Due to the protests involving a lack of armed response to Japanese intervention in the Civil War. President Chen has announced that unless the United Nations imposes strict punishments, economically or militarily on Japan. That China will take direct military action against the small island nation. President Chen stating that it was an appalling act fueled by greed and hatred, and that Japan needed to pay for it's disrespect towards the Chinese people. Police were deployed en masse into major cities all across the country in-order to prevent the protests and anger from getting violent. Which has happened frequently in the past whenever involving Japan.


China has also called for calm among the population as they begin to grow more discontent with the situation the world is currently in, with raising tensions, the new outbreak in Africa and Japanese aggression. The people call on the Chinese government to defend them from it all, President Chen has stated that he and his government are willing to do whatever it takes to defend their nation.


Precautions


The Chinese government has put a ban on any Chinese citizen flying to Liberia, and has also blocked any flights from coming to China from Liberia. In-order to prevent any potential cases of the H1N1 virus. Chinese health officials have also put out a precautionary warning to citizens to wash their hands more often and to genuinely keep good hygiene. China has also stated that it is willing to cut off all connections with Africa in it's entirety if the outbreak was to get out of control. China has commended South Africa for it's work in supporting Liberia in it's time of need.


China has also canceled it's 2 Child Policy. Stating that China has always grown stronger with a larger population, the Chinese government has actually began encouraging families to have more children, with the Welfare budget being increased extraordinarily in-order to supplement this cancellation of the Child Policy.


Chinese Might

With China now being in a much better economic & social state than before. Due to it's reunification. Has once again begun rapidly expanding it's military might. An additional 450,000 North Koreans who had been pending for asylum in China have been granted access, in return that they are put to work constructing military equipment for the PLA. They will be sufficiently fed, well treated, and given suitable housing. 160 HQ-9 Surface to Air Missile vehicles finished construction for the PLAAF, and the other 90 for the Navy also finished construction. The 25 Type-052D Destroyers finished their construction as well, and are currently waiting to be manned in the docks. 20 of the 40 Hunter Killer Type-029 Submarines finished construction, the other 20 planned to be finished within two months. The 50 Type-054A Frigates have nearly finished construction, and with a new draft of 879,000 into the Active Duty military. All of these new creations will be sufficiently manned.


The PLA has stated that it has finally reached an above average level of understanding of Network-Centric Warfare. And has successfully integrated this into the Chinese military doctrine. 85 new J-31 Fighter Jets ordered previously were completed and sent to their designated airfields. And the PLA has put a staggering amount of resources into constructing new military factories in the countryside, around 20 in total. To work around the clock, along with 6 new military bases opening all across China. An additional 120,000 were drafted from Xianjiang to supplement the Reserves. Chinese military expansion plans will continue to bolster until President Chen and his cabinet are satisfied with their military strength and mainland defense capabilities.

SAUDIA ARABIAN REPUBLIC

(The new official flag)





PEACE TO THE PEOPLE AND ALLAH

After many years of struggle, the country of Arabia was finally officially liberated after the capture of the city of Riyadh in early spring . The people celebrate in the streets of the end of ISIS tryanny, however Muzzafar is happy of the liberation of his people and country there were also many problems to deal with. a few days after the liberation of the capital city, many search parties were sent to find the remaining political members and also King Salman bin abdualiz al-Saud. Several hours passed and grave news had been reported that only 3 members were found locked up along with the youngest son of the original king. Prince Saud had shown no sign of being hurt, however his family and others who shared the same fate of being tortured and burned or beheaded. Muzzafar had addressed to the people of the grim news and sworn that ISIS will be hunted to the last dog, any that show resistance will be left to the fate of the people, those who surrender may be spared by trial. He has also warned to the factions in Medina that a republic monarchy will be worked out. The Pro-Iranians will be given a warning to lay down there arms and to at least come to the schedule meeting (Planned to be in four days) and tell their opinions and such and come to a understanding.





(Speech addressing to the factions in Medina)


"Brothers and sisters in Medina.There is no need for more violence, the war with the threat is over and it is time to rebuild. I know to those of you that disagree of my decision of a republic, think of me as a fool, however I am no fool to make the same mistakes and repeat history. Our government before was to weak and overconfident to contain the ISIS outbreak and we had lost within a day or two. But let me tell you something, most of my life I have spent, has been to free my country, to free my family, and to free you. ISIS took many of the things we loved against our will and weaponized our religion to something that I call the years of infamy. Shaping our god and way of life to violence and influencing our own children who wish to become normal children and pray peacefully, to use our bodys for war and dispose of us when no longer needed, I have seen things that no human being should see and I do not want that to happen again....Ever....I beg of you to please.Even if it is for for just one day to cease violence and let us come to cure of your long pain."


Muzzafar after addressing his speech had then decided to go to Medina himself and to officially bring peace amongst the people.





Foreign Troops a nuisance?


General Sufar who is in command of the fifth army group of the Drawn Swords Of God and originally captured but saved three years ago have attempted to persuade the people of Arabia that German forces and other foreign combatants were here to only assistance and will then leave immediately. However civilians had obviously shown no sign of allowing "Outsiders" to assist since most of the ISIS group were nearly eradicated and thus was not required. So in Conclusion General Sufar addressed in behalf of Muzzafar to the German High command that all military assistance from Germany and others were no longer needed and must leave immedietly, he of course was not happy with the decision but followed under the orders and opinions of the people. However on another note, Sufar has informed that Muzzafar has agreed to allow assistance in rebuilding Saudi Arabia.
