Organisation Seeks Expansion (MT)

24-01-2007, 17:19
The nation of Toopoxia has been home to the Organisation for many years, now they seek new markets in foreign countries, this is not an outsourcing mission no Toopoxican factories at home will be closed down and all jobs are safe.

The Organisation seeks space for laboratories and factories and we would be more than happy to assist in the arming of militaries or in simple weapons construction, despite this the Organisation reserves the right to refuse construction orders and have a priority towards building arms for Toopoxia than in building arms for other nations.

Although applying nations do not require specific limitations tom goverment style we would prefer the following specifications.

EVIL or CA member nations
A Proximity to Toopoxia
Naval capabilities
low Income Tax
Capitolist Nations
Secure goverment
Access to local resources

Becoming a part of the Organisation can mean great things for your nations prospects, including driving down unemployment rates, modernised militaries, a boost to the economy and possible protection from the nation of Toopoxia itself.

(OOC: Like I said, this isn't outsourcing, I don't need to know stuff like how little I can pay workers (though $0 might tempt me :P) that said, could you respond ICly, kinda obvious really but best to mention it, oh, and I might have an aversion to Communists so no offence if I deny you for that reason...)

Message from the Toopoxican Organisation to Eurasia

Excellent, shipments of building materials will begin immediatly, this will be followed by a training staff to get the employees well versed in their appointed tasks, on a related note are there any laws and restrictions on industry that we should be notified of before we get too far into the construction process?

The Republic of the Jade Star is willing to alocate space for the Organization, we and our various allied states have several islands which would be excellent for research which the Organization does not wish disturbed by outside infuences or inconvinient protestors. Provided the Organization is willing to respect the bounds of the local Goblin tribes (an issue which should not come up, as the locals do not often venture above ground.), there should be nothing to bother your researchers. Consultation with the Republic prior to construction of extensive sub-basement facilities is advised.
In regards to factories several of our member states posses large populations of Goblins, hard working and quite technically capable in most regards.

Ministry for Trade & Industry
To: The Organisation

All waste must be disposed of in a manner abiding by Eurasian law. No dumping into water, and pollution must remain beneath 500 ppm. Employees must be paid adequate compensation from their work, though there is no minimum wage. Furthermore, all facilities constructed must be deemed "æsthetically pleasing" by a review from this Ministry, which can be done forthwith.

All these rules shall be conformed to as best is our abilities, we hope that these factories and laboritories benefit both our glorious nations, we hope to further do business with your nation in tthe future.

Message from the Toopoxican Organisation to the Jade Star

We welcome the territory you allocate for us, we will try to keep from molesting the Goblin population but we are intrigued as to the anotomy of these creatures and we would like any further information you might be able to provide on them, that is of course if you are willing to do so, again we thank the Jade Star and we look forwards to any further business we may take part in in the near future.

(OOC: Jade Star, would you mind if I started an RP about the possible capture and research on Goblins? I won't start it unless ye give me permission of course...)

(OOC:
The Goblins would most likely be happy to sell you a few, since the islanders think that concepts like not enslaving neighbors are silly. Selling off a few extra kids isnt beyond them either >_>
But if you want to run around in a Goblin warren trying to net a few without being mobbed, flayed, cooked, and having your head stuck on a pike outside the entrance of their tunnels, go for it :P)

IC:
The Republic can make arrangements for corpses of the various Greenskin species to be delivered to Toopaxian facilities with the consent of their relatives. As Greenskin, and other non-human, species generally arent too picky about burial customs this should not prove a challenge.
Arrangements for live persons will have to be arranged with the local governments, however we would be pleased to put you in contact with the governments of Blakenrock, Orsimier and Gundabad, who will no doubt be pleased to make arrangements for such a deal. The respective Elven governments may be somewhat more reticent to part with both corpses and live persons without assurances that both will be returned in a state suitable for burial, and the various Pictsies tend to be secretive about what exactly goes on with their dead.

We would also prefer that the Organization notified the Republic if any experiments of a potentially hazerdous nature are going to take place in any of these facilities, while the nature of those experiments may remain confidential we would like to know if there is a chance of a laboratory exploding and turn the local water supply glowing neon orange.
Vault 10

Greetings.

Vault 10 is a government-free territory accepting all kinds of businesses without limitations.

If you would like to establish your business here, you are free to do so. Please, however, remember that there are some regulations applying to all companies.
First of all, all natural resources of Vault 10, including air and water, are property of Vault-Tec corporation. Extraction of non-renewable resources is possible, but you need to purchase unextracted resources, at cost considerably lower than market price of extracted resources. The use of renewable resources is not restricted unless it harms other businesses and people, and, particularly, ecology units management system is in place.
Pollution produced is measured and weighed in ecology units, in accordance to many factors, including chemical composition, current area pollution level and distance to populated areas. To be allowed to let pollution out of privately owned territory to Vault-Tec owned lands, companies should purchase ecology units from companies doing pollution removal. It is your business whether you just carry the waste away, work in highly radioactive areas where pollution is inexpensive or produce nearly no waste as most companies with underground facilities do.
Similarly, it is an excellent opportunity to earn money if you either can work on removing pollution or offer pollution-reducing technologies.

There are no other restrictions to what you do on the land you own. No laws and no law enforcement bodies exist except for ones introduced by the land owner. There are no taxes or other forms of economy control.

You might like to be advised for some specifics of operation in Vault 10:
* The major available transport systems are Aerospace Logistics air and naval transport and Kriegsbahn underground railway system for heavy industries use. Our air transport prices are the lowest in the entire world, due to immense economies of scale arising from airlift being the dominating form of transportation. Still, if you need to move large quantities of cargo, it is better to purchase or rent land with access to sea ports or Kriegsbahn lines, as land transport is nearly impossible due to rough landscape and highly dangerous.
* Your protection is your own concern. You may, however, consider Aerospace Logistics safety insurance service, which will warrant the protection of the Nonconsensual Delivery Department (NDD), highly efficient due to operating outside of any legal and moral obligations. The international Standard Security Corporation also operates in the Vault-Tec territory, offering affordable police-like services.
* Majority of Vault 10 assets are located underground, in nuclear-resistant facilities constructed predominantly by Vault-Tec for affordable price. You do not have to purchase underground space, but it offers very low radiation levels, unlike most of the cheap surface territories, makes our citizens more likely to work at your facilities (note: importing of foreign workforce is not restricted), and includes unparalleled protection from all threats both by active and passive measures.

While initial investment might be higher than normally, note that doing business in Vault 10 warrants long-term prosperity. According to the constitution, neither Vault-Tec nor any other company may introduce any form of taxation or enforce any financial control. Our citizens are highly educated, older populace having nothing more to do in the Vaults and younger being too arrogant to stay behind; at the same time, lack of workforce import regulations saves costs for less qualified labor.
Vault 10 is a member of the GSMDP, proven efficient in defending against missile attacks, and, coupled with Vault-Tec facilities protection, which have proven themselves impenetrable during the nuclear war, the safety of any assets in Vault-Tec facilities is unparalleled. And, above the ground, there is a lot of land to expand to, with more and more becoming usable with constantly falling radiation levels. Our strong economic system offers efficient funds management, and loan interest ratios are low, while banks' cooperation with the NDD removes the complications with mortgages. Cost of power in Vault 10 is also among the lowest in the world, due to the Symmetriad nuclear powered integrated network.
You will also have full access to the products and many unique services offered by our corporations. These include access to some classified Symmetriad systems, Lightning Communications satellite network, and worldwide services of the ALC Nonconsensual Delivery Department, which accepts orders for transportation of goods both without consent of the original owner (unless also contracted with NDD) and without consent of the recipient (typically for live munitions). All these make the corporations of Vault 10 one of the most profitable in the world.


We look forward to doing business with you.

Message from the Toopoxican Organisation to the Jade Star

We thank the Jade Star for their co-operation in assiting our R&D department and on a related note we assure you that we will keep you apprised of all research projects and the outcomes of these projects whilst they take place in your nation the very secretive research will be done in the Organisations laboratories in Toopoxia.

Message from the Toopoxican Organisation to Vault 10

Despite the enticing assurances of a state free from law and employment we are afraid we will have to deny, the costs of the operation are simply far too great for us to ever hope for a profit, this includes maintaining a fighting force for any bandits which you warn us of, supplying our own resources which will drain our at home production and the use of underground facilities with connecting Train systems which we beleive is far too inefficient and costly, however we will hold your invitation to your territory as a kind gesture and we are interested in doing business with Vault 10, we hope that in the future our economic situation improves and we can indeed come to your nation, for now we offer our services as a trading partner and potential ally should your territory come under invasion or if you require assistence in brining bandits to order.

Excellent. We will make arrangements now and notify the locals to prepare for your arrival.
If you require assistance with the construction feel free to contact the Goblin tribes, they are excellent excavators and will no doubt greatly speed construction.

[ Vault 10 Coordinator message ]

I've been informed of the situation. Well, it is true that many look upon Vault 10 as nothing more than as a major threat to the civilized world, the gathering point of corporations aiming for world dominance and total control over the humanity. But let me assure you that they are wrong.

It is so, but it is not all that Vault 10 is. It is not exactly as evil as most believe.

Vault 10 is the place where corporations can work in areas which normally shock people in other countries. Deep genetic research, special biological equipment development, nuclear proliferation coordination, mind enhancement medicines production, elimination industries, and many other perspective areas might be covered up by Vault 10 corporations. Or might not be, as discretion is what we value, and no questions are asked.

While our ecological policies may seem strict, considering the freedom offered in other areas, they are enforced, as you might imagine what could otherwise end up dumped here. I should clear some misunderstanding which might arise from our official responses.

The corporations operating here do not supply their own resources. At millions of square miles, our land is pretty rich in resources, and just a certain fee, usually just a small part of the resource cost, has to be paid to Vault-Tec in compensation for extracting them. That fee normally exists only to prevent inconsiderate use, and is hardly noticeable if the resources are actually used here.

For using the transport system, admittedly, industries involving large amount of cargo have to be restricted to the rail network or ports. But, due to large scale, free competition and lack of taxes, the prices offered by Kriegsbahn are actually even lower than normally. All these rail systems were built before the War and funded by the then-existent government, and Kriegsbahn is simply a group of their workers which seized them after the War. Due to immense amounts of cargo involved, Kriegsbahn uses 6.3 meter gauge, and, with the highly efficient nuclear-powered network, charges only between $0.0015 per tonne*km for optimal load times and $0.01 per tonne*km for immediate delivery. Costs of rail transport have always been the lowest, and here they are even lower due to high capacity optimization and pressure of ALC.

The crime situation, while not centrally controlled, is not as rampant as it could be. Particularly, in the wilderness survival without good equipment is nearly impossible, and organized crime groups possessing these capabilities have been either wiped out or absorbed by way better organized corporations (which would be an accurate description if there was any difference besides size). During the last year, there was only one unauthorized SAM shooting at a commercial passenger-carrying aircraft (an old Rockwell/Boeing B-1B owned by Westin Industries, with Mr.Westin aboard), which fortunately ended only in the destruction of the offender; and no attacks on Kriegsbahn armed trains have been registered for three years at all, neither underground nor on the surface.

Of course, not all industries are efficient in Vault 10. Raw resource extraction, for instance, is worth the expense only if resources are used here or nearby. However, all industries with high power consumption save a lot of funds, as well as any aerospace production. R&D activities are among the most efficient here due to good human resources available. Highly dangerous industries often find natural canyons a good safety measure, and much less restrictions are imposed, as everything is built with wartime protection in mind.

And, finally, when considering underground or aboveground location, remember that underground facilities space includes (limited) protection warranty by Vault-Tec. For aboveground, procurement cost is very low, and very affordable insurance from Aerospace Logistics can easily fix the crime problems, as tactics used by the NDD to repel and punish the violators are ones most people don't want to know about. Insurance by NDD warrants that any property losses and even lost profit caused by attacks will be compensated for.

As your country's industries are new to working in Vault 10, I, on behalf of the Vault-Tec Corporation and Vault 10 Coordination Council, offer you premium conditions to lower the initial investment. Protection of your assets for the first year will be warranted by Vault-Tec free of charge, and, if any space is rented for five years or more, for the first year the rent won't be charged. Permanent land or facility space purchases will have 10% discount (below 100 billion value only). Furthermore, all Vault-Tec services costs (below 100 billion) will be provided for half the cost for the first year, and may be paid next year. This will ensure low operating costs for the initial establishment. For the future, I am sure you will receive return of the investment very soon, due to our active and growing economy.


Respectfully,
Vault 10 Coordinator.

Message from the Toopoxican Organisation to Vault 10

In light of recent acquisitions and this new information we have been called to reconsider your proposal, it does seem a perfect area for development of certain technologies and with your assurances that the territory is not as chaotic as we feared we would like to begin the construction of labs as soon as is possible, preferably as near to the coast as we can build without trouble, we would like to take the advice given and build our labs subterrainean linking to the Kreigsbahn, as with our other overseas laboritories we will keep your goverment apprised to developments and potentially risky developments, looking forwards to further business.

Congratulations on your choice.
The criminal situation, while really not perfect, is not a danger to large businesses. All organized crime avoids messing with corporations, as lack of police caused them to carry out operations themselves, and in ways normally restricted by law. While Vault-Tec, voluntarily conforming to certain norms of civility (including restricting punishment to the criminal and not his descendants), is less feared than the inconsiderate Aerospace Logistics Corporation, no criminals ever dare direct attacks on assets of companies under our protection. The worst problems ever occuring are smuggling, thievery and rare pirate attacks on secondary logistics lines, but any particularly valuable cargoes are normally transported either by Su-47M escorted ALC flights, intercepting which would be a challenge for a national military, let alone any criminal group, or secure Kriegsbahn subway lines. Crime is mostly a danger to businesses too small to use protection, and is tolerated by corporations exactly for that reason. Large companies like yours are not endangered, and Vault-Tec cover will nearly eliminate risks of even small interference.

For locations, we currently have a lot of empty estate in Boneyard and SF. The protected facilities there are about 800 and 350 meters of rock above respectively, and both are in direct vicinity of major ports. The SF is today the main gate for immigrantion, and a lot of various workforce is available. Furthermore, the surface is not contaminated at all, in over 100km radius. Boneyard has less active migration, but is the safest place besides Vault City, and the largest center of military shipbuilding and NBC weapons industries, as well as the third most advanced genetic research center in the region. High militarization and local martial law make crime nearly nonexistant there, and mostly local populace makes highly qualified specialists available. There are other, less famous and less open centers, but, as all cities are linked by the rail network, the opportunities will be better explored after establishing the first centers.

You are welcome.


Respectfully,
Vault 10 Coordinator.
