After the secession from Britian, -- Malaysia -- faces many government issues, one of many, which became popular, is either to spend our GDP in military expansion, or in economic growth. This issue has gone so strong that many have held riots against the two sides, one of which has nearly killed 42 people in Kuala Lampur.

The struggle and stress of the issue has bought the Emperor in confusion, and the citizens had been waiting for an answer for weeks, but they still haven't gone any. As for the impatience in the people, government officials fear that a secession of the island opposite of the capital island might happen so they can form a military district, but defense forces have held that off. Many still fear for the secession.

Economists state that the GDP be spent mostly on economy, about 65% on economy and the rest 35% on military. This solution seemed the calm down the matter, but many resisted.

The Emperor, Nasir Mahmood, still has to decide on the matter.
