PINA will devote documentary to pro-capitalist viewpoints

PINA (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/PINA), the Ariddian international news channel, has announced that it will be preparing a 90 minute documentary consisting primarily of interviews of people living in capitalist countries.

"We will be looking for people who support their country's socio-economic model and way of life, and we'll be asking them to tell us why," Robert Choi (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Robert_Choi) explained. "We want to bring the perspectives of ordinary capitalist supporters to the Ariddian people, and of course to viewers around the world."

The documentary will also contain interviews of sociologists and other experts from the nations visited, but the main voices will be those of "ordinary citizens".

"We want the authentic grassroots feelings," Choi said.

The documentary, which is still at the stage of conceptualisation, will be viewed by Ariddians, who live in a socialist society.

"The Museum of Consumerism (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Museum_of_Consumerism) is great and informative," Choi said, "but what do people living in consumerist societies really believe?"

PINA has said it is hoping to hear from capitalist countries willing to assist with the documentary.

"We'll be sending a team to several capitalist nations - say, about four or five. If there are countries that want to volunteer to be included in our documentary, we'll take that into account."

PINA is also hoping that this documentary will dispell foreign claims regarding limited access to dissenting views in socialist Ariddia.

"PINA has always been objective, thorough and detailed, presenting all relevant viewpoints," Choi said. "That's true of the Ariddian media in general."

The Uir Government gives the PINA permission to interview Uir citizens provided they ask the citizen to sign a release form. Gogari, the nation's capitol has approximately half the population and would be perfect for you to do your interviews. There are five large shopping centres in the capitol, the West Mall, the East Mall, the North Mall, the South Mall and the National Mall. Your crew shall be granted Culture Visas which will allow you to stay in the country for 25-day periods to be renewed as long as you can provide evidence that you are making progress.Visas are à1 (à is the symbol for Arjet, the national currency. à1 is equal to about 1.5 USD) per person per period of 25 days.

The Culture Visa will give you free access to any museum. The Pre-Colony History Museum will give you some information about the natives lives which were capitalistic before they even knew there were other ways to live. The Colony Museum will give you information about the effect of European trade.

The North Parliamentary Republik of Uiri has very little government controlled business. Basic Healthcare, a very simple subway system with very high fares, the military, and the police force are the only things provided by the state.

PINA is grateful to the Uir Government for this extremely interesting opportunity. We will definitely visit Uiri.

OOC: Ariddia has a moneyless economy (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/Ariddian_economy). And is a signatory of the IFTA (http://ns.goobergunch.net/wiki/index.php/IFTA).

Sorry, but your reporters are not allowed into Swilatia. We will never allow the voices of Swilatian citizens to be used in a communist propaganda film.

From: Lady Dazzarina Handiskya Dallas, Jeruselem Ambassador to Ariddia

We invite the people of Ariddia and the nice people who work for PINA to come to Jeruselem to investigate Capitalism. In fact, talk my daughter Crown Princess Katherine Alexandra Dallas, who you know is Ariddian too, to see what special access you need. Since she is a the Crown Princess, she can get PINA access to people you might want to talk too.

I'll be interested in taking part in this PINA research if your people want to ask me about how one makes money in Jeruselem.

Love

Snefaldia will allow a PINA team to interview individuals at their discretion across the Centralized Mountain States. Our only caveat is that PINA must obtain release forms from all interviews, promise not to unfairly edit or otherwise skew interviews.

The ministry of Telecommunications would also like to enter into an agreement with PINA to broadcast the finished documentary on Snefaldian airwaves, in addition to the PINA channels already airing in the country.

We have nothing to fear from the free transmission of information. Education is a virtue in our country; and educating the Ariddian people about life in Snefaldia would be a great honor.

Office of the Minister for Foreign Affairs
Liverpool England Foreign Affairs Ministry
32 Embassy St.
CCL, Government Territory, Liverpool England

As Ariddia has no formal diplomatic ties with Liverpool England, the PINA crew will not be allowed to enter Liverpool England without a visa, as per federal law for citizens of countries with no relations with Liverpool England.

The PINA crew is advised to make an application to the Visa Office (04-31, 32 Embassy St, CCL, Government Territory, Liverpool England) should they wish to seek entrance into Liverpool England. All cases are determined on a case-by-case basis, and the Visa Office may, at its discretion, impose conditions on the visitor(s), where such conditions are permitted by law.

We would be happy to welcome the PINA crew should an application be made and granted.

There have been a number of instances where Bazalonians and Ariddians have worked well together dispite differences in economic models, Of most notice is The positions of President and Vice President of the World Cup Committee.

It is the view of the Bazalonian government that free frank and open discussion particularily on the issue of economic systems that failures in the system can be identified and addressed.

PINA is asked to approach the Bazalonian embassy in Ariddia to obtain appropriate VISA's for it's crew, before planning on visiting Bazalonia should Bazalonia be a destination for the documentary.

The Swilatian authorities appear to be misinformed. PINA is not in the business of making propaganda films. Unless the Swilatians believe that allowing capitalists to express themselves freely, uncensored and unedited, is communist propaganda?

Swilatia's decision to censor its citizens will be mentioned, however.

We're very grateful. And our team will be delighted to interview you, Ms. Dallas, as well as Her Highness your daughter, and a number of ordinary Jeruselem citizens.

PINA will be pleased to work in Snefaldia. I assure you release forms will be systematically requested, and the interviews will not be skewed or unfairly edited. Our purpose is to allow the interviewees to speak their mind fully and freely. As a gesture of good faith, we can release a copy of our raw film footage to the Snefaldian authorities.

We'll also be pleased to broadcast the documentary on Snefaldian airwaves.

Thank you for this information. We'll be inquiring about visa conditions.

Az-cz is curious about this love of capitalism as well and would like to request rights to broadcast this program in Az-cz on channels other than PINA.

If PINA desires they are more than welcome to come to Kanami and interview people. For the longest time Kanami has been strict with buisness (Almost a socialist belife) and it should provide for some intresting interviews. Also several news networks have put in a request for broadcasting rights.

KNN
KNBC
GlobalToday
Kanami Today
The Evening Show

Thank you,

Department of Media Affairs
Ministry of the Interior

You may come to Kurona and interview civilans

PINA thanks Kurona for its authorisation.

What is Kanami's current socio-economic system and policy?

Az-cz television (and other media), and all requesting media from Kanami, will be granted the right to broadcast the documentary.

Lower Bottom embraces the honorable ideals behind this documentary on capitalism and is willing for Pina to interview its citizens providing an acceptable fee is paid to the government. We are not concerned about editorial control providing our coffers are filling up nicely.

PINA thanks Kurona for its authorisation.

Az-cz television (and other media), and all requesting media from Kanami, will be granted the right to broadcast the documentary.

Kanami is moderated capitalist-soicialist. It's very mixed. The networks send their thanks for broadcasting rights.

A representative of the Bostopian Government has announced rather off-key that they would allow PINA into the country in order to take public opinion on why they support capitalism, should those working on the documentary fill out the necessary VISA forms.

Contact details are available at www.bostopia.gov.bp

It wasn't that hard for the PINA Documentarians to get a Temporary Working Visa, PINA was a respected organisation and as such it reduced alot of the red-tape and time delays that would be taken in verifying legitimacy of their claims.

The documentarians would be allowed entry into Bazalonia for upto 3 months in which they would be allowed to perform their work, should any member of the team lose their job they have 2 weeks to get on a plane back home, should a crew member commit a crime they will be deported back to Ariddia. Those are the general conditions of the Visa.
