[Editorial] The Crisis in Australia
Sophia Forrester
For slightly over one week, our brother nation of Australia has faced an assault by its historical enemy, Indonesia. With their regions falling one by one to the Indonesian juggernaut, many had reason to doubt that Australia would survive. Here in eJapan, tired after our exhaustingly complicated region swap, there seemed little we could do. That is true no longer.
At the battle for the Australian capital of New South Wales, EDEN delivered, preventing our Australian brothers from being conquered by the Indonesian empire. Australia now has the initiative, and with allies behind them, and many Indonesia's allies busily breaking off from Phoenix, even the most hopeless of situations may not be so hopeless after all.
We eJapanese now have an opportunity, a crucial one. We can throw our full support behind Australia to push back the Indonesian juggernaut. In doing so, we would create a national purpose to rally behind, and show the world that we keep faith with our allies.
It is true that our Imperial Diet is in the process of joining the PANAM alliance, a mainly North and South American alliance which will keep us safely under the umbrella of American foreign policy. I have supported joining PANAM. That does not entail breaking faith with our other sworn allies who are not part of it. Instead, we should show the world what our alliance means, so that whatever consequences may ensue, our allies will know that when Japan stands behind them, we are true and faithful to our commitments.
Stand tall, eJapan. Defeat the Indonesian aggressors as we defeated the threatened PTO here within our own shores. Godspeed.
Comments
Vetoing eIndonesia from joining would be the political move to make: don't know exactly how it works, but apparently the rumor is that is how Brazil prevented eAus from being part of PANAM.
Fighting for eAus is the militaristic thing to do.
But as usual, voted.
"He who desires peace must prepare for war"
and as far as PANAM goes, the odds do not seem to be in eJapans favor. its basically EDEN in a different form.

Wut?
this guy is uninformed, eIndonesia and eAustralia currently have peace deal including giving regions for free
eIndonesia is much more worthy compared to eJapan. if you decided to backstab eUSA, eIndonesia need only to PTO you when eUSA asked to keep their border safe 😉
Alliance with Australia?
We would have some fights from home.
Sophia Forrester-san, I wrote a statement on this in the thread you opened in the national forums and encourage all eJapanese to participate in that discussion:

The only major reservation I might have about supporting eAustralia with an MPP is that its value may not be worth the 100 gold paid for each side (total 200 gold), but I am inclined to believe the boost in activity and chance to help an old friend against a country that has menaced us both in the past is worth it.
Also, apparently Sunardi is uninformed about eJapan's relationship with the eUSA. eJapan's Imperial Diet is nearly unanimously supporting the PANAM alliance:

So there is not much likelihood of eJapan "backstabbing" the eUSA. More likely is that eIndonesia would "PTO" eJapan in order to make eUSA's border with eJapan *less* safe. It would not be the first time they tried.
im absolutely informed about what you said. The question would be, are you informed about how many agents we have in eJapan? Re-read last part of my comment
- The question would be, are you informed about how many agents we have in eJapan?
Actually, no. But then again, you are eIndonesian, so I'll forgive you for misunderstanding the larger scheme of things.
indonesians😛oopieheads.
I don't know what what to think of this, but PANAM is not really similar to EDEN. I more akin to say it's similar to the Brolliance, but we'll have to let time decide how PANAM turns out.
>The question would be, are you informed about how many agents we have in eJapan?
And exactly how many have access to the Congress section?
Easy answer, Zero.
Imbeciles. You do not seem to know that NSW attack was made due to the auto-attack rule, so did Papua. Negotiation was held under and the Indos have released few of eAustralian regions back as its starting point. Check both of the countries' orders and media, you'll understand.
But then again I doubt you will (understand any of it at all), typical Wapanese is typical.
And don't get too cocky there Myung Kei, you wouldn't want to know the capabilities of AnD members. CRJ was merely one of them. Imagine having all of them taking this sweet little country.

I don't really mind, actually. Watching children at play is fun~

Hail eJapan...
