Sung Hyo-rin, Li Baihan fight over the future of the Lotus Party
Sung elected Party President while Li holds onto Leadership in controversial Party Convention

HAISHAN ISLAND, Shu: Following an election which saw Li Baihan lead the Lotus Party to its worst results ever, the anti-Li and pro-Li camps have openly been at war over the future of the Lotus Party.
Just days after the General Election last October, three sitting Lotus Party Assemblymen held a press conference calling for the resignation of Li. Li responded the next day by holding a rally in her hometown of Haiwan, Anle, declaring that the "Tian'an elites are conspiring against [her] and the elected Leadership of the party."
Following continued calls for Li's resignation, Li remained steadfast in her commitment to lead the party, holding rallies across the country for her supporters. On 8 December 4369, Finance Minister and former-interim Leader Sung Hyo-rin, the most senior and high-profile member of the Lotus Party's caucus announced that she had joined the anti-Li camp, calling for her resignation.
According to the Lotus Party constitution, a party conference must be held within 12 months of the last general election to election the administrative leadership of the party, as well as perform a "Leadership Review" vote on the sitting leader. The only Lotus Party Leader to be defeated by the Leadership Review was Yi Junkai in 4336. Despite winning 57.2% support at the conference, the Party's constitution required that a Leader achieve at least 60% to remain on. Following his dismissal, delegates at that convention lowered the required level of support to 50%.
Sitting Party President and de-facto leader of the pro-Li camp Wang Zheng announced two weeks before the convention that it would be held on the remote island of Haishan, Shu Province. Sung Hyo-Rin held a press conference three hours later with six LP assemblymen, denouncing the "snap" announcement and claiming that the selection of the Haishan Island as the convention location was orchestrated to "deny the majority of the party's membership their vote." Sung Hyo-rin announced that she would run against Wang for the Party Presidency if he did not resign.

On the first day of the convention, the party delegates were scheduled to debate a new manifesto proposed by the pro-Li camp, but the anti-Li camp, though fewer in number, obstructed all debates using points of order, points of information, points of privilege or other tactics to prevent motions from going to vote. In the end, the manifesto, titled "Fighting the Machine" did not receive a vote.
On the second day of the convention, delegates entered the convention hall to vote for the Party President. As incumbent Wang Zheng did not resign, and intended to run for re-election, Sung declared her candidacy from the floor to the cheers of many delegates in the room. Another pro-Li Candidate, Tao Chang also announced her candidacy. Unlike the leadership review or the election of a leader, the position of party president requires a simple plurality, rather than an overall majority. Thus, with 44.6% of the vote, Sung was able to narrowly defeat the incumbent Wang (43.1%) and Tao (12.3%). Following her win, Sung announced that she would be resigning as Finance Minister, a role which she claims she was "forced" into by Li.
On the third and final day of the convention, Li's first leadership review vote ended positively, with 54.7% per cent of delegates at the convention voting against holding another leadership race. As Li approached the stage to give a keynote address, Sung and various Lotus Party Assemblymen and women staged a dramatic walk-out.
![[Image: OYxUthA.png]](https://i.imgur.com/OYxUthA.png)
In Li's speech, she declared that the result has "vindicated [her] continued leadership, and respected the democratic will of the party." She asked party members to unify around her leadership and offered her detractors forgiveness: "it's easy to be swindled by Tian'an dirty money, but I call on every member of this party to recall its democratic socialist origins and unite in the fight for the change we demand!"

Fang Wei sets the record straight on government concerns over INP's offshore drilling
12 July 4370
[Image missing]
Mr. Fang gives a stern-faced expression moments before issuing a statement to Indralan press
NATIONAL NEWS: Fang Wei, CEO of Indralan National Petroleum and leader of the Freedom Party has come under fire in recent months due to his company, Indralan National Petroleum, reactivating its operations off the coast of Mudanwan, in the search for crude oil underwater. The Minister of Environment and Tourism, Man Jiahao, as well as the Minister of Infrastructure and Transport, Tang Yang, have debated action against his company. Fang has met the government's concerns head on in a press conference at the party's headquarters, also calling the government intervention an "attack on his ideals". Reporters from our newspaper were present at his press conference, and have included a transcript from his conference below.
Quote:I see that two of the government's ministers have debated action against my offshore drilling, and the bill that they have presented to the Grand Assembly is likely to pass unopposed. Well, I had wanted to reveal the results of our observations, not operations later this month to the public, but now that I have these very troubling details breathing down my neck, I have no choice. Our observations via an unmanned sub revealed several mineral deposits at the bottom of the trench, after I was shown pictures taken by the sub itself while on-site aboard one of my oil rigs. We then took small soil samples where the conditions were favorable as well as a deep ground radar scan. What I saw was astonishing. Underneath the seabed our equipment revealed not one but several large oil veins. We were going to begin penetrating the shale to acquire the crude oil, but now that this legislature has been presented against us, it seems our operations will likely be stalled. I would very much like to begin distributing this oil to other corporations who want it, as well as refining it under my own company into petroleum and motor oil, but it seems I will be placed in a stranglehold by the government. This is an attack on my ideals. I sold my family business to boost my country's economy as well as make a name for myself and damn it I have made it. Indrala has been welcoming of free markets for decades. I will not see my profits squandered by the government horning in.

Indralan National Petroleum contracts oil extraction to foreign companies in "Black Gold Trench", profits soar overnight
22 November 4371
[Image missing]
Employees of a Kazulian oil company, named Nord Olje contracted by INP oversee plans to carefully extract crude oil from the bottom of the "Black Gold Trench".
NATIONWIDE NEWS: Indralan National Petroleum has been under fire in recent months for its refusal to submit to the denial of their charter to offshore drill by the Grand Assembly. Fang Wei, CEO of the company has addressed the government's concerns head on, stating that no official penetration for crude oil had begun, but observations had discovered the area was rich in fossil fuels and various mineral deposits. After seeing that the company has been stalled in the extraction of the substances offshore, Mr. Fang has decided to utilize a loophole in the form of contracting the extraction to foreign companies. After approaching companies in both Valruzia and Kazulia, it seems the Kazulian company has agreed to conduct the extraction. Named Nord Olje, or "North Oil", the company has a good and reliable track record for their strict safety standards. Mr. Fang states that they were desired due to the "Great, yet overexaggerated concerns of the government". Already safely extracting hundreds of drums worth of crude oil, the profits of INP have shot up overnight, attracting more foreign investors across Terra. Most of the oil extracted was sent back to the mainland to various processing facilities owned by INP in the Min Province. The CEO of INP hopes for more cooperation between the two companies and possibly more contracted work in the future, if the government continues to limit their offshore drilling. When asked about the possible consequences that such an action might lead to from the government, Mr. Fang gave a smirk and said "I'd like to see them try."

OOC CONTEXT NOTE: This was the beginning of a civil war RP arc that the player "C Communist" unilaterally began. All the other players in Yingdala opposed it and the moderators intervened. However, as players had responded to this post by then, this post was re-contextualized as a highly propagandistic, largely inaccurate misinformation campaign by the Communists, in which they exaggerate the impact of a small number of coordinated terrorist attacks, particularly on oil infrastructure, rather than the sweeping revolt this post suggests. Thus, it should be read in that context.
PEOPLE'S DAILY
The People's Daily is an extreme left wing weekly newspaper, publish nationwide to promote Communist Party's ideal. It is under the direct control of Central Propaganda Department of Communist Party of Yingdala.
Armed Revolt in Anle and Han!

And they are willing to fight for their future and build a socialist utopia. The Yingdala Civil War between Communists and Capitalists have been started! It is the end of the Capitalist Reactionary Tyranny and the evil rule of Kyo members!
Few hours after the rebellion, the cities in Anle was shocked by the quick attack. A few small cities was liberated and the first Red Area is formed that full performed socialist economy. Shuzhou, Communist Party's headquarters is surrounded by thousands of polices at night but they surrendered in the morning as the Red Guards are arrived.

GONGMING RIBAO
The Gongming Ribao International Version has been a long-established newspaper for moderate republicans in Indrala. Lately, the newspaper has been observed to be getting closer with the new political organisation Civic Forum, becoming a de facto tool for party propaganda.
Civic Forum Founded In Response To Communist Violence
October 4372, Tianan
As armed revolts in Anle and Han continues, the Communist now seem ever more determined to plunge our state into complete chaos. However, there may be a silver lining after all, as the nation's sensible moderates have finally took a stand against the radical and hostile political atmosphere of Indrala.
Yesterday night, the Civic Forum hosted hundreds of intellectuals and famous social movement leaders across Indrala to the Party's Founding Ceremony. However, for all the efforts the party has put in before the ceremony, attendance was far short of expected. The Stadium booked for the event, originally intended for a great showcase of the 'Silent Majority' was only attended by a few. Seeing the empty stands across the stadium, some guests have even started to leave the event ten minutes into the grand Ceremony. Nonetheless, the Civic Forum completed all its steps, including a press conference, landing them a seat at the political table of Indrala. Its electoral performance, however, will have to be seen.

The Civic Forum's Founding Ceremony leaves empty seats all over the stadium
In the press conference, the party's leader Chiang Zongren restated their party's stance on the current political circumstances, condemning the Communists' violent revolution across provinces where a sizeable majority did not vote for them, and asks the party to immediately halt forcibly collectivising properties of the people without a clear consensus. He also announced that the party will soon begin their first ever electoral campaign, a whole two years before the actual election, with upholding democratic principles and safeguarding peaceful politics as their main themes. On the future of the party, Chiang was mainly confident, reassuring the press that the Silent Majority will in the end come out to vote for the Civic Forum when they are given the chance.

Li Baihan says SDP, Civic Forum and LP have more similarities than differences
Li spoke to students and Kaizhou National University about the issues that divide and unite in Indralan politics
![[Image: igMzKJG.png]](https://i.imgur.com/igMzKJG.png)
Li answering a question from students.
KAIZHOU, Jiaozhi: A tradition among Lotus Party Leaders, Li Baihan led her first public forum at Kaizhou National University yesterday. The embattled Leader fielded many questions, but chose to focus on the broad state of Indralan politics. Specifically, she addressed republicanism and extremism.
"It's unfortunate, honestly, that the Civic Forum and the Social Democrats walk the republican path with their Communist colleagues," said Li, "what could be a great alliance between social democrats, progressives and centrists in this country is impossible so long as they embrace this republicanism."
Li also addressed the Civic Forum's program which says that the "imperial house remains to strip the people of their rights," a statement which Li says is "plain wrong."
"It truly is concerning the level of misinformation present today in our politics. The myth that somehow, by performing spiritual rituals in seclusion the Imperial Household is 'stripping people of their rights'," Li said. She noted the popular movement which placed Sun Yijun on the throne in the first place as evidence of the Emperor's mandate and of his respect for democracy.
As the party widely credited with bringing democracy to Indrala in the 4270s following the decline of Tony Pua's dictatorship, Li says that the Lotus Party views "radical forces" eager to change the foundation of the state as the greatest threat to our democracy.
Aside from these topics, Li was challenged extensively by the students' who are frustrated with Li's leadership of the Lotus Party. The KNU Lotus Party Campus Club boycotted the forum, in a show of solidarity against Li.

Sitting on top of a massive oil empire, INP CEO Fang Wei explores other industries

With stable growth in INP's stock, CEO Fang Wei has announced interest in creating profit in other industries
NATIONWIDE NEWS: After seeing INP's stock rise considerably after the successful extraction of ocean oil by way of foreign contractors, its CEO has discussed interest in pursuing profit in other industries, from technology to most interestingly, the recording industry. "Technology in Indrala has been soaring in profits in recent years and I have expressed great intrigue in capitalizing on it. The way to economic growth and establishing our nation as a technological powerhouse in southern Seleya starts here." Expressing the desire to acquire or form companies that produce anything from software to smartphones, he has made it clear that he is expanding his corporate enterprise. When asked about his aspirations to conduct business in the recording industry, he stated that it came from a natural love of music and also the immense profits that can obtained from it. Foreign investors have already expressed support for Fang's expansion, and it is likely that a caizu will emerge from his businesses in the near distant future.

TIAN'AN, Han: The Chief Counselor of Indrala was hospitalized this morning with "minor" injuries after being struck by a small unmanned aerial vehicle, better known as a drone, being flown by man near the Chief Counselor's Residence whose blood alcohol content was 0.13, nearly twice the legal limit to drive. According to a press statement from the Chief Counselor's office Mr. Mo was taking a morning stroll with two aides through a garden at the residence when the drone, nearly silent, descended unnoticed and hit the Chief Counselor in the back of the head with its body.

The internet was immediately aflutter with memes finding humor at the Chief Counselor's expense
The office of the Chief Counselor noted that the operator of the drone was doing so in restricted airspace and that charges will be filed. The government has called for a crackdown on "drunk droning", advocating for the legal blood alcohol content limit while operating a drone to be set at 0.08, the same as the legal limit for operating an automobile.

INP Forms "Fly Indrala", an airliner as well as travel agency targeted towards foreigners
Seeking to promote stronger economic growth in Indrala, the young businessman looks toward the tourism industry

The newly formed airliner's logo, soon to be freshly applied on planes.
NATIONAL NEWS: Already championing his quest for expansion and growth of the nation's economy, Fang Wei, CEO of INP and newly-minted billionaire has announced at a economic summit that INP and its subsidiary would fall under the jurisdiction of the Fang Corporation, a massive subsidiary of what he proposes the "Lion Group", a caizu he plans to form once the Fang Corporation expands to a considerable length. The first phase of his expansion was the formation of a commercial airliner as well as travel agency targeted towards foreign tourists. Named "Fly Indrala", Mr. Fang has already acquired several planes, enough for an acceptable commercial fleet, with some coming from Valruzia, as a part of Mr. Fang's outreach to foreign investors. In fact, Valruzia was the first nation to have already begun accepting travel plans for the company's upcoming grand opening, a date set for 4 years ahead. The time range was set to allow the construction of several airports across Indrala and some holdings in Valruzia. The timing of the formation of Fly Indrala could not have come any sooner, with the summer olympic games coming in just 7 years, being set in the capital of Valruzia, Nowogard. No doubt citizens will be excited to watch the games commence. It seems that in the coming years, a travel boom may be on the horizon, both from native citizens travelling abroad, to foreigners visiting our nation of rich history and culture.

BREAKING: 4373 Election Results
October 4373, Tianan
The Snap Election of 4373 has finally been concluded, with all votes counted. The results are as follow:
![[Image: 4373g.jpg]](https://i.ibb.co/drGgm3r/4373g.jpg)
After the results announcement, Civic Forum leader Jiang Zongren called a special press conference, announcing that he will be continuing his job as leader of CF. However, this decision was criticised by some among the party ranks, saying that with such disappointing results, Jiang should step down. While others closer to Jiang told reporters that the party was actually very successful in the province of Anle, becoming the second largest party, opposing the Communist Party. With all that is said, the scheduled 4374 First Party Congress of the Civic Forum will surely be interesting to watch.
