Confederation of Praetonian Industry Initiative for the Promotion of Kahanistani Development

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v387/Praetonia/CPI.png

Welcome, fellow Capitalists!

Kahanistan has a reputation for communist business restrictions that inhibit growth, a rapacious, incompetent and often insolvent government that endangers the lives and properties of its subjects by launching misjudged wars, and a highly unionised, anti-business workforce. Why, then, is Kahanistan the right place for you in invest your money? Because all of that has changed!

Following Kahanistan's acceptance as a Protectorate of the Crown Commonwealth of Praetonia, pro-business, pro-development legislation has been introduced that has had the effect of making Kahanistan a profitable place to do business without angering the left-wing militant tendancy in the local populace.

Benefits of investing in Kahanistan include:

• Free trade in and out of the country, meaning that raw materials can be imported cheaply and manufactured goods re-exported at minimal cost.
• Low taxation, limited to just 8% of GDP - one of the lowest rates in the world.
• Low wages as a result of currently uncompetitive labour market.
• Free migration makes it easy to bring in workers as required if not supplied by the home market.
• Controls on the Kahanistani state's belligerence held and actively enforced by the Praetonian Crown.
• Credible defence force and guarantee of sovereignty as a result of Praetonian, Clandonian and Kregeian defensive presence.
• Stable, pro-business conditions guaranteed by international treaty for at least 20 years.

In order to invest in Kahanistan, all one need do is take an equal share in the Kahanistan Welfare Fund, established to provide public services for Kahanistan in exchange for endorsing Kahanistan's low-tax, pro-business environment. The cost of doing so is significantly smaller than potential to be made in this emerging economy.

God Save the Lord Protector.

Current Investor States:

Praetonia
Greston
Zukariaa
Olmedreca

[OOC: All you need to do is RP investment in a news post or something, no forms to fill in. The Kstan welfare fund has liabilities of about $16tn over 20 years, so it won't cost much when a couple of major countries' businesses have divvied it up.]

The aid let out a sigh of relief as she dropped the heavy pile of papers on President John Batthers desk. The pile of papers made a loud thud and the thud echoed through the rooms and exited out the door along with the aid. John mumered a curse as he took the first paper off the pile. He read the first sentence of the six page document then signed his name and placed the paper in a much smaller pile of papers marked as "Completed". He did the same with paper after paper and after about an hour or so he had only read one full document and signed 40 more. John blew out and took in a big breath then started back up on the pile. 10 documents later he came upon a paper titled, "Invesments in Kahanistan". John skimmed through, only noticing the words 'investements, 'good', and 'money'. John signed his name and placed the paper on the complete pile. He then hid the un-complete pile under his desk and called in his aid to say he was done.

"A 1 billion universal dollar investment into the warmongering, communist, anti-business nation, Kahanistan, was made today. The deal means that we will get free trade within the nation for 20 years. All the while we will recieve high profits and give little and pay little to nothing for the expenses. This will also give these trading ships protection by the nation of Praetonia and Clandonia Prime." blared the tv set that woke Mr. John Batther up from a nap upon his desk.

"In other news a hobo has been stuck in the Grestonian RailTransit Subways. Local Bob Mergin says 'lets just leave him there'."

After that John turned the TV off and fell back asleep.

Zukariaan Businesses Invest in Kahanistan

Issue of 15-03-XX
_____
After a recent announcement by Praetonian officials that was meant to "encourage" investment in Kahanistan by foreign businesses, several major Zukariaan corporations took them up on the offer. Zukariaan megacorporation Megalectronics Incorporated and Fucking Fast Automotives (FFA) announced their intentions to open factories throughout Kahanistan, offering along with the opportunities for jobs 'several incentives to work well'. They said they would consider providing health care for some Kahanistani who were in need because 'health workers increases output'.
Fucking Fast Automotives claimed that Kahanistani citizens n a slight discount on the purchase of all cars if they 'worked to corporate satisfaction'. However, a third company, Holeeshiet Computers, claimed that such policies were socialist and discriminatory of proper Zukariaans, who would not gain discounts or health care. It claimed it would 'take the proper capitalist approach'.
Zukariaan reporters for the Aiur Times claimed to have polled Kahanistani on their opinions of the recent investment surge by Zukariaan business with the most prominant answer being,'very pleased' with the developments. We are sure that these poll numbers are very trustworthy, and are glad that our corporate friends will be gaining a warm welcome from the Kahanistani people.

Olmedrecan companies join the race in Kahanistan

Kahanistan is a nation which could be described as series of failures and tragedies. They have repeatedly lost their homeland, and their population losses in wars can be counted in billions. Its know that Doomingsland will execute the former kahanistani president Marcellus Valens soon, in some form of grilling. But as things go worse and worse, its logical to assume that at one moment they need to start going uphill again.

Kahanistan has been long known as a state there investing is a bad idea. Communists are highly influential there, their current president is also a communist. But now the situation has improved. With Kahanistan becoming Praetonian protectorate it has accepted treaty which creates proper pro-business environment in the country, with small taxes and free trade. This has been achieved with investors helping to finance Kahanistani welfare. With large numbers of foreign immigrants pouring into the country, there are huge amounts of people that can be employed rather cheaply. With becoming Praetonian protectorate Kahanistani security situation has also improved considerably, and is actualy probably best they have had for a long time.

Numerous Olmedrecan Companies have already announced plans or interest about investing in Kahanistan. Exxon-Drecca, Northway Motors, OMEX and Sinivee Fishing Industries have already declared their intentions to invest into Kahanistan, Gildor Heavy Industries, Bluerock Corporation and Northern Paper are believed to join them soon. Several other corporations may also join later. Olmedrecan Foreign Ministry has declared that the government gives companies have free hands as usual, and that Olmedreca trusts Praetonian quarantees.

Still some analysists have remained critical, and pointed out that Kahanistani well known irrationality can easily result destroying all the progress that has been made. Relations with numerous APOC powers remain low, and Kahanistan does not seem to be interested in improving them. We can only hope that kahanistan has learned its lessons, and will not end up again in flames of war. Next war would not only damage the investments, but would also critically endanger Kahanistani continuous existance as nation.

Shansekian Propaganda and Entertainment Network News

Shansekia Corp. Invests in Kahanistan

Shansekia Corporation has recently affirmed its promised investment of approximately 800 million USD into Kahanistan. CEO Toros Tepens, during a party at his mansion, said, "While Kahanistan still remains volatile, we believe that this investment will quickly reap a benefit with the cheap labor of the Kahanistani people. Of course, we will provide healthcare to them...at a higher rate." While polls show a generally positive reaction to the investment, the Workers' Union of Shansekia, small business, and other such sources fear such outsourcing could cut off Shansekia's economic independence. However, Shansekia Corp. continues to pledge to maintain existing factories, workers, etc., stating that they will simply be building new factories to increase product output at lower prices.

[OOC:Hope you don't mind a socialist democracy participating.

Kahanistan - The Yanitarian Aerspace Industry has decided as a group to create an intermediate company to invest in Kahanistani mineral wealth, and cheap labour. This intermediate company, called the Kahanistani Aerospace Investment Firm will take raw materials, and either ship them to Yanitaria, or in the case of small, unimportant parts, like bolts, windshields, tires, or sheet metal, will be produced locally and sent back to Yanitaria to be assembled.

However, Yanitarian observers pointed out that the low income work force may not be the hardest workers. To combat this, KAIF will provide the worker's and their families with company subsidized medical insurance, health care, and education, while also providing a reduced rate of appliances and manufactured good produced in Yanitaria or it's protectorates or colonies.

Hello I'm a smallish, but expanding nation of retail, soda and arms dealer
nation.
We are currently looking for large numbers of people to train and pay to
help construct a new and "better" Cascade States,
we feel that this could be the opportunity our Benevolent Dictator has been
searching for.
If allowed to open up factories here we will begin the process of teaching
the locals how to construct and export "unnecessary" and " Consumer goods".
Our factories will house and feed those people who seek our jobs, and will
receive adequate health care, and a retirement plan just as good as our own
people might receive from our government.
We will also offer competitive goods for this nation who has so generously
offered to open up it's lands to our companies.

Avalic Automobile Manufacturing Industry Invests Heavily in Kahanistan Labor

The AAMI has been favored by the Avalic government for quite some time. Recently the government has given the AAMI fifty million tax krotes to expand their business. As you know, the public is wondering what the AAMI would use this money in, besides swimming in their accumulated wealth. AAMI spokesman, Larry Licorish, has sent out a public statement, much to the surprise of the Avalic citizens.

"You may or may not be wonder what we are doing with these tax krotes, but we have made a hundred million krote investment on Kahanistan labor. We are investing 60.12% of our six month period profit with 80.79% of the tax dollars," said spokesman Larry Licorish.

The current president of Avalic, David Avalice has approved this deal, mostly for the benefit for the nation.

"With these polluted work environments, with little to no health care gone we can finally work on the important things. Like technology advancements and environment protection. I am switching over 1 million Avalic jobs to jobs with better health care, environments with clean air, and pays more than minimum wage than the AAMI had offered their previous workers. Plus we can revitalize the Kahanistan industry so it's a win for both nations. I myself am going to invest in this company, so we can stop with the smoke filled factories of the Soda Can Manufacturing company, and the Plastic Productions company. I think they won't say no to this deal," said President Avalice in his monthly speech.

Now this may be good for our nation but the citizens of Kahanistan have gone through too many insane leaders to count. The COMMUNIST nation of Kahanistan seems a bit suspicious to me. Watch out for any "surprises" from their products.

Republic Economics
The Grand Economy Reporter

Liberty City Economics Bureau
Today the LCEB stated today that in regards to better relations, the City of Liberty in the Republic Province of the Confederacy of Horsicos has been given permission to invest in the Foreign Markets of Kahanistan. A total sum of the Provinces annual growth will be allowed to be transfered by open Market in hopes of more growth. The sum, in an astounding Three Billion Denars being transfered into Universal Standard Dollars, will be the hopes and dreams of future economists...

Lots of jibberish afterwards.

Buy & Sell Corporate Expansion Headquarters, Grayghost Province

Tucker Boot waited in the conference room patiently, looking out through the tinted window at the spiralling Grayghost Mountains that encompassed this miserable province. Khima-Uss, a booming metropolis by Grayghost standards and a large town by anyother, stretched out across the valley, sheltered from the piercing winds by the towering mountains. Meager crops, made resistant to the cold, stretched out beyond those, until at Blizzard's Edge it simply became a solid wall of white, where the sea winds were allowed to pass through.

Eventually, the executives filed in. With the ding of a tiny little buzzer, Tucker started the meeting. "You all know why we're in this miserable little hole in the clouds. The Praetonians have opened up the Kahanistani market, and we must pounce like the imperialistic sleezebags we are. I want factories in every major city, which means every capital city in their pitiful little country. Questions, comments, concerns?"

Mr. Jameson stood quite abruptly, and began launching a verbal tirade against Tucker's proposal. He did this a lot, and if it weren't for his ability to read the locals like a card, he wouldn't be in such a high position. "Mr. Boot, do you really think that such leftist scum will simply let our polluting factories into their homeland that easily? If this is going to get off the ground, we'll need region-specific industries, lumber, textiles, the lot. If we try electronics, arms, or automobiles one more time than we'll undoubtedly face another armed resistance."

Tucker pretended to care for a moment, but couldn't hold it up for long. Mid-speech, Tucker pulled out a White Canadian and relaxed as he drank. Finally, Jameson finished, his face red with indignity. "Huh. It's not like we've ever lost before. But I see your point, these people are our allies, supposedly. Fine, roll out the eco-friendly industries, lumber, Cloaca-Cola, Dyspepsi-Cola, textiles, the lot of it. Standard ratio of factories to TradeMarts, two to one, and we're set. Make it so."

And so it was.

Church Moves Towards Foreign Markets

In an unprecedented move of fiscal practicality Cardinal Mazzio Resou, chief finance minister of the Holy Church today order a the liquidation of two hundred tons of silver, along with the sale of several Church properties overseas, and of course proceeds from the remissions of sins for a new venture in, of all places, Kahanistan. There has been some speculation as to if the money is indeed, as the Finance Ministry has said for fiscal investment or of a more sinister means. However this is a view only taken by seditious traitors, may they all be taken in their sleep.

I for one find it a good thing that the Holy Church is pursuing foreign investment so that it may spread it's loving arms around the world, although at what price some say. Some say one hundred billion Dollars is to high, I say burn in hell you godless liberals. Details are so far faint but, as is guaranteed by our leadership, the venture shall end in success. The move by the Holy Church has also spurred private investors to drag out the pocket book and form, so far again reports are vague but it seems the funds are condensing into two our three foreign investment funds. On this of course we shall have to see. We certainly do not need their money, God knows, but perhaps they need some of ours. Certainly all twisted and depraved opposition must see that that at least is a good thing.
