Congratulations

Congratulations, you have just been elected as a congress member in your country. Visit the Country Administration area to use your congress member tools.

Way back in early 2011 when I was first voted into congress I was quite excited, having won a new award, being able to help the country and winning 5 Gold.

Back then we were constantly being invaded by Indonesia and most congress members donated their reward Gold back to the Country. This was to help with the war effort, over time SA has been safe, with the Brazil treaty and with no threat the donating of the gold from this award died away.

Well economically we are in crisis, I would like to set the example and propose to congress members to donate this Gold back to the country. Whether it be to help with PAP/MUST or just back into the country accounts to help where needed.

This month if all 36 congress members sent their Gold back that would be 180 GOLD extra to strengthen and grow the country.

I want to put my 5 Gold reward back into the country. If the Minister of Finance Al Kazar can comment and let us all know how this is best done it would be great.

For all those moaning that you should be rewarded as congress I leave you with this.

Forever your servant South Africa

This was the norm back in the day Badger, unfortunately Game mechanics wont allow u to donate into the country acc's or the RBSA org these days. What can be done, depending on where the MoF thinks it would be best used, u could donate it to the leader of that program. IE (M.U.S.T) Crumoet/Grimstone. (P.A.P) Wildeboer,

Nice gesture btw, good to see some people still care!

Grimstone Day 1,833, 07:00

IF donated, would be advisable for the MoF as well as the Program who is going to be benefiting from this, document all transactions so people can see where/how their donations are being spent

Badger06 Day 1,833, 07:01

I would like it to become the norm again.

Badger06 Day 1,833, 07:02

I know all PAP donations are logged as well as MUST.

LiquidIce Day 1,833, 07:28

Great idea... Will check in to see where I can donate.

PeterJ13 Day 1,833, 08:01

I agree as well

Nickerball Day 1,833, 08:23

We used to do it then, we can do it now, but it seems Willdeboer is out, so we can only doneat 10G to any one person per day. What happens now with PAP then?

Rexdeus Day 1,833, 08:43

Donate my multies : ) I will make sure the right people get the money........WHAT?

Badger06 Day 1,833, 08:53

we have 3 people to donate to Crumoet, Grimstone and Willdeboer will put up a forum topic and organise the donating, for that want to donate

Badger06 Day 1,833, 08:54

PAP is still running, Willdeboer meant he is out of his personal Gold not any of the PAP monies and supplies

Badger06 Day 1,833, 09:01

Bia Pandora Day 1,833, 09:02

Marine representing, awesome o7

Al Kazar Day 1,833, 09:50

I will post donation instructions in the forum thread that has been set up as soon as the required changes to properly record citizen donations on the forums is done.

Uber kiko Day 1,833, 11:50

Good idea, where should we donate the gold? o7

Miyagiyoda Day 1,833, 12:41

You can donate to the org... in a round-about way.

1. Place the Gold up for sale on the Money Market.
2. RBA buys it and puts frm/wrm on sale at the buy price.
3. You buy the frm/wrm.

S.N.A.F.U Day 1,833, 12:54

Good suggestion. If I would end up in congress from now on I will donate the gold to the country.

WastelandENT Day 1,833, 19:03

I'm in. Just waiting to be told where my gold needs to go.
