Type of plane you will come with to Noordeinde: C-130 Hercules

Name of the Head of the Delegation: Harmony Chang

Number of other Delegation members? none

*If you would like to use your own vehicles, please give us, number, brand and type of vehicles! We will use local taxis and/or public transportation.

Any requests? none

For The Conference please fill in the following Statements.

*Statement of what you can and offer to do for the Ang Phillepines. Fatatatutti has a large fleet of C-130 aircraft that can be used for transport of food aid and medical aid, as well as for transport of other aid workers. We can also provide large quantities of food aid.

Any other Statements you like to make? Fatatatutti would like to set up an informal partnership with Noordeinde and other interested nations for ongoing assistance in this and other natural disasters.

IC: The Prime Minister saw the yellow cab (http://www.allianceyellowcab.com/images/yellow_austin_dwntwn_small.jpg) driving toward the entrance of the conference hall."well I know who that might be". The Prime Minister laughed.

The taxi stopped in front of the entrance of the conference and the cab-driver opened the door.

"Madam Chang how nice to see you again, how are you doing? We had a vehicle waiting for you at the airport but I see you rather choose your own transportation"

"If I may intoduce you, Secretary of State Louis wilson VI, and Secretary of Defense Collin Powel."

"Your taxis are so big, I thought it was a bus," Harmony smiled. "I'm glad to be here. Not glad that we have to be here because of the disaster but glad that we can be here to do something to help."

IC: Yes it's to bad that this occured, but if we stand strong as international community we can realy mean something to all those people in the Ang Phillepines.

"My government is hoping to set up some kind of semi-permanent, informal organization, so that we don't have to have a conference every time there's a disaster. Any time we're needed, we should be ready with whatever each nation is best equiped to provide - Fatatatutti with food aid and transport and other nations with their specialities."

Well sounds good to me, just something like the international Red-Cross but than between countries. And wel this time it is really an honor to organize such a conference, today the Secretary of State wired a telegram to all embassies and nations we have relations with to join this conference, so hopefully they do.

"Yes. I'm actually on my way home for the Luau Festival, so I'm not planning on staying too long." Harmony was wearing jeans and a Black Sabbath T-shirt which indicated that she was in less-than-official mode, even for her. "I heard about your conference and I thought I should swing by to offer our support. To tell the truth, I feel a little guilty, on my way to a feast when other people are going hungry."

"well that means your a verry good an honnest person", The prime Minister complimented her with.

"And I think the Ang Phillepines government are already verry happy with your support aide of transports planes and food distribution"

"I hope they will come soon and you can tell them the good news yourself and otherwise I would be more than happy to tell them for you."

"We Fatatatutians think of ourselves as one big, happy family - even if brothers and sisters fight sometimes," she smiled. "And we think of other nations as our cousins, so we don't like to see them suffering either. I think most nations feel the same way. We just don't always have the organization in place to help when we need to and want to. I hope this conference will help in that direction. I don't think we need a formal organization - we don't want to spend all our time arguing over rules and regulations so we have no time to help people. But we need to be more organized in knowing when and where help is needed and in knowing what each nation can contribute."

"well i hope this International Conference will be the outcome afther all international regulations, and that each country feels free to help in whatever way they like" The Prime Minister sad.

"And when I hear you talking such compasionate about Fatatautti i'm going to like your country more and more,I is great that your country feels about other countries like family, to bad I don't have the time to go to your national feast week, but I hear of Under secretary of State John Adams that he has a great time."

From The Oligarchy of Motokata:

A Secret Service Agent walked up to the Prime Minister, "Mister Prime Minister, The President of the Republic of Eeri will arrive soon! Please follow me to the entrance to receive the President" The Prime Minister friendly excused himself by the Motokata delegation and followed the Secret Service Agent.

While on his way to the entrance the Prime Minister got briefed about the President of Eeri and his daughter who would accompanny him.

A couple of seconds afther the Prime Minister arrived at the entrance (http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3591/3399934672_93135e94ff_b.jpg) to receive "The Eeri Delegation", the Diplomatic Convoy (http://i727.photobucket.com/albums/ww278/Haagsallerlei/blogafghaansedelegatie.jpg) with onboard the Eeri delegation arrived.

Type of plane you will come with to Noordeinde: Government Helicopter from NFGA embassy.
(ooc: it is not nessecary to use your helicopter to get downtown to the conference, but a Diplomatic Mercedes-Benz S-class (http://i31.tinypic.com/4ue8hc.jpg) has been send to your Embassy to pick up the Ambassador and the delegate and get them downtown (http://i727.photobucket.com/albums/ww278/Haagsallerlei/blogafghaansedelegatie.jpg) at the conference hall (http://images.theage.com.au/2009/04/01/445606/W_HAGUE-420x0.jpg).)

IC: While The Prime Minister welcomed the Eeri delegation and walked with them to their places in the conference hall, The Secretary of State welcomed Ambassador Ryan Keeling of Greater Amercania who just arrived.

"Welcome Mister Ambassador, nice to see you again, I'm glad your country wanted to be represented as well, and by you this time. The Main role player, The Ang Phillepines delegation, will arive soon I hope, but they can only take of if the typhoon is over or at least weakened in strenght. But from what i've heard they must be verry thankfull with what you can offer them"

Harmony stood looking out the window. She was glad that more nations were being represented at the conference but she wondered when they would finish with all the handshaking and get down to business. She was eager to get home.

The personnal assistent of Prime Minister Roosevelt approached Harmony. "Misses chang i guess? may I invite you to have something to drink at the bar,my name is Jerry Logan, PA of the Prime Minister, I recently received some news about the Main Role Player, The Ang Phillepines Delegation, at this Conference. They are delayed due the typhoon, it seems to be that they cannot take of until the typhoon is over or at least weakened in strength. but 1 thing is certain they will come! Well let's get something to drink shouldn't we?" Jerry smiled to Harmony, hoping that she would accompanny him to the bar.

"Thanks," Harmony said. "I told your Prime Minister I'd send some Fatatatutian coffee but I don't know if it has arrived yet. I suppose when I travel, I should try the local products. You don't grow coffee here, do you?"

Jerry laughed, "so that call about a crate full with coffee wasn't a joke from that Captain with the Airport Customs, well I told him to get in to the PM's official residence so I think it must have arrived there. And wel no we don't grow coffee, but you might want to try our nations pride, our Noordeinde's whiskey, but if you take it don't drink to much you still have a conference meeting to go" Jerry laughed.

"And wel no we don't grow coffee, but you might want to try our nations pride, our Noordeinde's whiskey, but if you take it don't drink to much you still have a conference meeting to go" Jerry laughed.

"I'm not much for alcohol, so you don't have to worry about me overdoing it," Harmony smiled. "The hardest drink we make in Fatatatutti is pineapple brandy and that probably isn't in the same league. But I'll try your whiskey.

"Any idea when the guests of honour will arrive? I'm sure they'd rather not be the guests of honour, of course."

"Well I have the Blackberry of The Prime Minister here, well let's have a look, well I see that our guests of Honor have to wait untill everything calmed down there, so that might take a couple of hours I guess, I think the PM is quite happy that this conference is spreaded in sveral days"

"... I think the PM is quite happy that this conference is spreaded in sveral days"

"I really didn't plan to stay that long," Harmony said thoughtfully. "I want to meet the Ang Phillipines delegation though. I'd like to hear first-hand where they think we can help the most. If I do leave before the conference is over, you can always inform me of any developments by email."

She sniffed the whiskey and then sipped it cautiously. She made a conscious if not completely successful attempt not to cross her eyes. "Whoa... that isn't made of pineapples, is it? I bet it keeps you warm on cold nights though."

"well no, it's not made out of pineapples" Jerry laughed.

"And i would be more than glad to email you if the delegation will arrive late during this conference and inform them about your plans to help them, but I hope they will come very soon, afcourse so that you can tell them en hear their stories"

"I definitely want to meet them. Even if we consider all human beings as brothers and sisters, it's easier to relate to people when we've met them face-to-face.

"I think I saw my young friend from Eeri, didn't I? We met over at... was it Parilisa?"

"ehm let me take a look at my notebook.... Yes their is a delegation from Eeri, the President, Mister Akitaro, and his daughter, and well maybe you and the PM met them, I had to stay in the car during the visit in Parilisa, making calls and appointments, it seems to be that Prime Minister Roosevelt doesn't like an empty agenda" Jerry laughed.

(OOC: it's not possible to get to the conference by foot, the airport is quite far out of town, in one of the suburbs)

Afther Ambassador Ryan Keeling of greater Americania was inside the conference hall, The Secretary of State welcomed a new delegation to the Conference, this time Mister Levi Smith from the United States of Penssylvania.

A motorcade existing out of 3 police motorcycles and an armoured Peugot 607 (http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3045/2892455413_dc6ce01d5e.jpg?v=0) with onboard mister Smith arrived at the entrance. The driver opened the door and mister Smith stepped out and walked over to the Secreatry of State.

"Welcome mister Smith, how are you doing, I hope you had a good flight and enjoyed your ride to the conference? It's great that your nation wanted to be represented here as well. The guests of Honor, the Delegation of the Ang Phillipines will arive soon, but they are delayed due the Typhoon"

A secret service agent walked up to the Secretary of State and Mister Smith " Sir I am here to accompanny mister smith to his seat in the conference hall (http://images.theage.com.au/2009/04/01/445606/W_HAGUE-420x0.jpg)"

Mister Smith and the Secretary shaked hands, and mister smith walked into the building to be brought to his seat in the conference hall (http://images.theage.com.au/2009/04/01/445606/W_HAGUE-420x0.jpg)

"Ah Good to be here, flight was a little long, but the Government 787 made it better, wante dto walk, but you guys said it was not possible ,nothings not possible for a Ex-Navy SEAL"

Smith shook both their hands and followed the SS Agent into the Hall

OoC: Knew I forgot something.

"Mr. Smith?" Harmony stepped up boldly. "Harmony Chang, from Fatatatutti. I don't suppose you're related to the Smiths in Fatatatutti. They're descended from whalers, I think. They're quite the walkers too. They'd walk home from here if it wasn't an island," she smiled.

Afther mister Smit, a quite big delegation from Létat arrived at the entrance. Out of the Mercedes-benz S class (http://i31.tinypic.com/4ue8hc.jpg) stepped the head of the delegation, madam Christelle la Boétie. Out of the van several other delegation members stepped out, including their Ambassador to The Grand Duchy of Noordeinde.

The Secretary of State greeted and shaked hands with all of them and welcomed them to the Conference. The whole delegation made a little conversation with the Secretary and were lead inside by him, where a special agent took over to bring the delegation to it's place in the conference hall (http://images.theage.com.au/2009/04/01/445606/W_HAGUE-420x0.jpg).

"Ah Good to be here, flight was a little long, but the Government 787 made it better, wante dto walk, but you guys said it was not possible ,nothings not possible for a Ex-Navy SEAL"

Smith shook both their hands and followed the SS Agent into the Hall

"well sir if I heard that you are a formal Navy Seall I would have let you try to walk the whole end, but I must say, what a good choice of the President of The United States of Penssylvania to send a former Seal, I mean you guys operate in such areas and situations, you must be an expert." The Secretary of State sad.

Ambassador Ryan Keeling quickly began to get bored with the small talk going on and began to wonder when the meeting will be called into order. "Where is the Ang Phillipines delegation?" he wondered.

Ambassador Ryan Keeling quickly began to get bored with the small talk going on and began to wonder when the meeting will be called into order. "Where is the Ang Phillipines delegation?" he wondered.

Prime Minister Roosevelt approached Ambassador Keeling"Ambassador Keeling if I'm right? How nice to meet you Mister Ambassador, Jonathan Roosevelt, Prime Minister of The Grand Duchy of Noordeinde."

"I heard you wanted to know when the conference will be called to order, well the delegation of the Ang Phillepines are delayed due the Typhoon, but they will come they sended me a telegramm with that promise, and immediadley afther their arrival here I will call the conference to order"

The Prime Minister sad to Ambassador Ryan Keeling.

"Well, thank you for telling me that. This is a great meeting. You've done a great job here."

"thank you mister Ambassador, it has been struggeling, just a couple of days to organize such a conference was quite though. But we accomplished our goal, there is a conference, their are international delegations, the airport was made ready to reveice a large amount of planes, and I'm really proud on my Secretary of Homeland Security for arranging such a top level of security. The only thing now is waiting for the Ang Phillepine Delegation to arrive and immidiadley call this conference to order"

"It'd be quite an insult to the NFGA if they didn't arrive after we bothered to send me as a delegate."

"I understand, but they promised to come over, But they can only take of safe if the typhoon will be over or at least weakened in strenght, safety for all."

The Prime Minister sad to Ambassador Keeling.

"I understand, but they promised to come over, But they can only take of safe if the typhoon will be over or at least weakened in strenght, safety for all."

The Prime Minister sad to Ambassador Keeling.

Keeling shrugs.

OOC: What's the real reason behind their absence?

(ooc: I did really receive a telegramm, and in the telegramm he says that he will come afther the typhoon and he promisses that, but it's up to him whan that shall be.)

IC; "well mister ambassador, wouldn't it be a good plan to go talk to some other delegations, there are already several delegations in the conference hall (http://images.theage.com.au/2009/04/01/445606/W_HAGUE-420x0.jpg) And even i haven't spoke to all of them"

"Yes, but answer me these questions first. Who all is attending this summit and what all do they intend to do?"

"well the countries who are attending this summit are countries who are involved in the situaton in the Ang Phillepines, and we invited all countries with embassies in Noordeinde immediadly, and there intentsions, helping the victimized people who are struck by this natural disaster"

The Principality of Kurona

We are so very distraught about this disaster. We know very well of nature's violent tenancies. We aren't able to send a delegate to the conference due to the travel length (Kurona has no air travel) but we want to help by sending food supplies and Money. We are rallying everyone in the country to dig into their pockets and give a little more.

We offer $5 million dollars
250,000 food kits
350,000 sanitation kits
150,000 bags of Wheat and Barley and other grains

May the grace of the heavens save them.

Truly,

Princess Tomoyo Hirohito

We offer $5 million dollars
250,000 food kits
350,000 sanitation kits
150,000 bags of Wheat and Barley and other grains

May the grace of the heavens save them.

Truly,

Princess Tomoyo Hirohito

OOC: No air travel? Lol What are you, medieval era?

OOC: No air travel? Lol What are you, medieval era?

(heh yeah in some ways I am ^^, but it would be more appropriate to ask via telegram so we don't clutter the thread please check your telegrams Noordeinde)

To: Principality of Kurona
From: Harmony Chang

The people of Fatatatutti would be pleased to send a C-130 aircraft to bring your delegation to Noordeinde. It can land and take off almost anywhere - no prepared airfield is necessary.

The people of Fatatatutti would be pleased to send a C-130 aircraft to bring your delegation to Noordeinde. It can land and take off almost anywhere - no prepared airfield is necessary.

We would gladly accept such an offer as your plane is adaptable to several types of terrain. It would be much faster than having to sail to Noordeinde

(ooc: I've checked my telegramms and you can come by ship to one of our port-cities, and from there we get you to our capitol city by our "Diplomatic Train" (http://www.nicospilt.com/2005/20050530_9545.JPG) and at the main Station in Downtown s'Gravenhage (our capitol city) we can let your delegation being picked up by our arranged diplomatic vehicles)

To: Principality of Kurona
From: Harmony Chang

Our aircraft is in the air. Just direct it to any reasonably flat area - about a kilometer long would be nice. Our pilots have been known to land in a parking lot in an emergency but for take-off, they like a little room for comfort.

(By the way, no weapons in the aircraft, please.)

"ladies and gentlemen" the Prime Minister sad from behind the micophone at his countries desk in the conference hall.
"I just received the great messege that the ang Phillepine delegation is on it's way to the conference here."

When the eye began it's passage over the country the King and his wife took the opportunity to get out and get the conference.

"Take good care of our children." She said.

"Don't worry madam, the Prince and Princess are in good hands."

She felt uneasy about leaving her children in the middle of a natural disaster but their attention was needed.

A C-130 screamed from the airport and began passing through the eye wall. The turbulence was beyond terrible. Jozefo kept his wife's hand in a firm squeeze as they passed through from the storm into calm and stars. Looking back at the storm behind them was awe inspiring. The complete separation of violence and calmness.

The plane landed in Noordeinde before too long.

Their guards entered first and announced their presence. "King Jozefo Yamashita, Minstrel Anaru Yamashita from Ang Philippines!"

(occ: hope this is okay)

Colonel Bauer was covered head to foot in mud and was rather pissed off. He had just got back from the forward HQ on the Ang Phillpines, the storm was still passing over the island and many needed help. He would much rather of been helping the populace then attending some meeting or committee yet central Command had ordered him to attended so he would. After having a quick shower he through his uniform on which was covered in dried mud and formed up with his HQ section there own uniforms covered in mud. After taking a brief trip by UH-60 to a makeshift landing strip they boarded a C-130 and flew out to the Nooredine, avoiding the main airport they set down on a small dirt civilian strip near the meeting.

Boarding the two RG32Ms they had brought with them they drove off towards the meeting. Arriving at the building Bauer wondered what the leaders reactions would be when his dirty men wandered into the room. Slinging there weapons on there backs, they snuck in from a side door and stood around the sides off the meeting room. Wondering when they will be noticed.

(OOC: If this dosn't fit in with the overall plan just say and i'll edit)

Harmony was glad she had worn her AC-DC T-shirt instead of her 'We Eat Royalty' T-shirt. She would have greeted the Ang Philippines delegation but the dirty soldiers were closer.

"Harmony Chang," she looked up at the leader who seemed twice her size, "from Fatatatutti." She looked at the others and smiled. "No need to be scared, boys. I'll protect you. You can leave your weapons at the door."

"well sir if I heard that you are a formal Navy Seall I would have let you try to walk the whole end, but I must say, what a good choice of the President of The United States of Penssylvania to send a former Seal, I mean you guys operate in such areas and situations, you must be an expert." The Secretary of State sad.


OOC:Sorry about the long response time ,had a hell of a time finding this again

IC:

"Had to rescue a Captured Helo crew in the middile of one of the damned things back in 95, not a very pleasant experience, especially when the closest thing to a House nearby is a hollow tree" Smith replied, with a bit of a grin on his face

"Mr. Smith?" Harmony stepped up boldly. "Harmony Chang, from Fatatatutti. I don't suppose you're related to the Smiths in Fatatatutti. They're descended from whalers, I think. They're quite the walkers too. They'd walk home from here if it wasn't an island," she smiled.

OOC:Same reason for the wait

IC:

"Alas No, at least not as far as i know Miss Chang"

"Alas No, at least not as far as i know Miss Chang"

"Well, then we're just friends and not relatives, I guess," Harmony smiled. "I was just telling the boys here that we're all friends and there's no need for their toys." She leaned her head toward the Wolf Hold delegation.

Smith Left out a Hearty Laugh
"Indeed Miss Chang, most certainly indeed"

Colonel Bauer really was not in the mood but he remined civil, "Miss Chang, I think I will keep my weapon on me, trust me the saftey is on and it is slung across my back and I have no intention of using it" Patting the gun on his back.

To the whole room more then any one in paticular, "Colonel Baur, Commander of The Wolf Hold Marine Corps and other units conducting relif operations inside the Ang Phillippines" His voice was not riased but a certain quality made it cut across the room.

"Now now Colonel, i feel as Helpless without a gun myself as a Newborn Baby"
Smith opened his jacket to reveal a 44 Magnum. Ruger Revolver

"I know the feeling" Un-slinging his MAC-303 and cocking it, yet making sure the saftey remaind on. "A wonderful peice of enginering, firieing a .303 round with the option of a 15 or 30 round magazine or even a 70 round drum magazine"

"Until i got recruited by my old friend Andrew for this job i used to carry either a M-468 6.6mm Assault rifle, SCAR-H MOD III 7.62mm Assault Rifle, or the LMG Version of the M-8 5.56mm

Harmony giggled. "Sorry boys. I wasn't prepared for such insecurity. Come to Fatatatutti sometime and we'll train that out of you. A beginners' class in self-defense might do it." She laughed again. "And now, I think I'll look for some more mature company, if you don't mind. The guests of honour have arrived."

She went over to the Ang Philippines delegation. "Harmony Chang," she smiled, bowing her head slightly, "from Fatatatutti. I'm very sorry about all the suffering in your nation. I've been telling our host that I think we need an informal organization that can step in any time it's needed. Instead of each nation jumping in ad hoc to offer its own aid, we should know ahead of time what each of us is best equiped to provide - and deliver."

"Miss Chang, i gather you've never been in the Army, let alone in a Warzone"
Smith continued talking with Colonel Bauer
"Seen any Combat yet?"

"All good weapons, however I always found the stopping power of the 5.56 wanting, the 7.62 is a step up, but still it takes two or three round to drop a moving target" Patting his rifle "The .303 drops em in one"

"Yes I have, The Civil war, The Four Heaton Invasion, The Battlehawk invasion, The conflicts in Comorostan and Albunida and several others, yourself?"

"The M-468 was my Favorite, the 6.6mm did the job just fine, as for combat, Desert Storm, Somalia in 93, Terroist put down Ops in the old Phillipines in 95, Bosnia and Kosovo, a couple of Russian ops in 99 and 2000, War on Terror from 2002 to 2010, the EU-Russia-USA War in 2020, and most recently the Farenz Civil War, Farenz was frightening to be honest"

"I've heard about some of them, I heard some of the fighting was bad. However it seems that Miss Chang dosn't approve of our coversation, perhaps we should move onto the subject of aid, so what are you offering to Ang Phillipines?"

"Food, Money, Hospitol Ships, if we can free them up from Farenz, and Some Private Contractors to Rebuild at our expense"

Smith said, looking over his shoulder to see if Miss Chang was still giving him a dirty look

"As you can proably tell we already have troops on the ground, namely the 22nd Marine Divison and the 56th Military police group, we are also working with specalists from the 2nd AID group, we already have delivery systems in place, we just need AID to give."

"We got a 35,000 ton, 10,000 Container Ship, the PAMC Trader, coming n completely loaded with food ,though its got itself into a bit of a pickle off of Parilisia, there will be 6 more coming as soon as we can get them loaded up with AID"

Otani went the King and Queen.

"Your Highnesses, I'm the Motokatan Executive of State, we're are ready and willing to help in every way possible. We also have a few business interested in starting up in your nation, under your laws. It will mean good things for your economy as it recovers.

Type of plane you will come with to Noordeinde: None

Name of the Head of the Delegation:a high ranking officer thats all you getting told

Number of other Delegation members? six troops

*If you would like to use your own vehicles, please give us, number, brand and type of vehicles! J-10 Huey helicopter from a fleet in the area
Any requests? no shaking hand if you don't want to have put it in ice for the rest of the day ,fact just don't stand too close

Their guards entered first and announced their presence. "King Jozefo Yamashita, Minstrel Anaru Yamashita from Ang Philippines!"

Prime Minister Roosevelt immediatly made a step towards the high delegation that just arrived.

"King Yamashita, what an honor to finnaly meet you, welcome at the conference, I still hope you had a good flight althoug you must have had a rough take-of with such a typhoon going on. And if I may as host, should we walk to the conference hall and call this meeting to order"

While the Prime Minister spoke with the Ang Phillepine delegation, the Secretary of Defense, a former Army General, walked over to the Penssylvania and Wolfhold delegation with several Secret Service agents.

"If I may, this is a formal international donor conference, and on you don't need any guns, I hereby order you to hand over your guns to these Special Agents of the Secret Service, you will get it back when you are leaving"

The Secretary of Defense was quite furious, he couldn't believe that 2 delegation heads dared to bring a gun with them to a peaceful conference, that was also heavy secured by the Noordeinde's security forces. The 2 delegation heads surrendered their guns, and the conference could go on.

The Secretary of Defence approached Harmony Chang: "Misses Chang isn't it? Collin Powel, Secretary of Defense of Noordeinde. How verry nice to meet you, I heared a lot of good things about you of the Prime Minister" The Secretary of Defense smiled.

"And I'm verry glad you informed the Secret Service about mister Smith and Bauer who brought their guns with them, I just ordered them to surrender their guns, what they did, so that we can call this conference to order because our guests of honor arrived.

"If I may, this is a formal international donor conference, and on you don't need any guns, I hereby order you to hand over your guns to these Special Agents of the Secret Service, you will get it back when you are leaving"


Colonel Bauer smirked to the Penssylvanian delegate and then nodded to his men. The HQ section consisted of six men, Colonel Bauer’s 2iC Major Hawthorne, A radio operator, 1st Wolf Carlson, his Medical Officer, Captain Fleming, chief of logistics 2nd Leftenant Fairborn and two guards Staff Sergeant Glliott and Gaunt. Each one of them un-slung there MAC-303 battle rifles and unclipped the magazines. Handing them too the security agents, the officers all pulled out side arms and passed them to the agents as well. As the hardware was passed over Bauer looked over his men and nodded.

Turning back to the Secretary of Defence he smilied, "I do apologise for the miss-understanding, we have just come from the Ang Philippines as you can probably tell by our uniforms, we came in through the side door over there and we couldn't find a place to store our weaponry. I do apologise"

"I'm glad it's just a misunderstanding" the Secretary of Defense sad. "And I must say if I was still a General I would have gone their myself as well, so respect for the both of you that you visited your troops on the ground over there, and made time to join this conference"

Everyone could see that the Secretary actually went from being furious to very friendly, he liked it to be with other men and women who joined the millitairy

ooc huh

The Secretary of Defence approached Harmony Chang: "Misses Chang isn't it? Collin Powel, Secretary of Defense of Noordeinde. How verry nice to meet you, I heared a lot of good things about you of the Prime Minister" The Secretary of Defense smiled.

"Yes, the Prime Minister and I got allong pretty well. I probably wouldn't be here if it wasn't for our friendship, even though it's been a very short one."

"And I'm verry glad you informed the Secret Service about mister Smith and Bauer who brought their guns with them, I just ordered them to surrender their guns, what they did, so that we can call this conference to order because our guests of honor arrived.

"Mm.... Sorry about the boys. Poor training, I guess. I offered to make men of them in Fatatatutti but they didn't seem so inclined. I was Minister of Defense twice, so I still have some connections." Harmony smiled. "But you're not interested in my resume. I hope we can get down to business now. I have a celebration waiting for me at home."

The Prime Minister stepped for the second time to his countries desk in the conference hall to use the microphone.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, now our Guests of honor arrived, the delegation of the Ang Phillepines with as head of their delegation the Honorable King Jozefo Yamashita, I hereby call the official Donor Conference on Typhoon Akiko that struck the Ang Phillepines to order! I request all delegations to take their seat at their desk with their countries name on it."

The Secretary of Defense and misses Chang still stood outside the hall and heared the announcement of the Prime Minister, Jerry, the Personnal Assistent of Prime Minister Roosevelt, runned toward them.

"Mister Secretary, Madam Harmony Chang, the conference is called to order as you might have heard so please follow me, we really have to start."

"Well it seems to be we are late." The Secretary smiled while he and misses chang followed Jerry to the Conferce hall where te meeting would officially start.

"Miss Chang, i do know Hand to Hand, nad have to use it a fair number of times myself, but its useless at ranges over 5 feet"

Smith said as he handed over his 30 year old ruger to the SS Agent, at the same time saying to him

"If their is one scratch on it wheni come out that wasnt there before, its coming out of your paycheck"

"Miss Chang, i do know Hand to Hand, nad have to use it a fair number of times myself, but its useless at ranges over 5 feet"

Harmony settled into her chair and pulled her bare feet up into the lotus position. Mr. Smith-who-is-not-related-to-the-Fatatatutti-Smiths, she smiled to herself, a true warrior can get within five feet before you even know it. She fidgeted to get comfortable with his wallet in her pocket.

Smith noticed his "Wallet" was missing, good thing he never went to these things with his real one

"Now Harmony, do i need to report you for theft?" He Said as he neared Miss Chang

"Now Harmony, do i need to report you for theft?" He Said as he neared Miss Chang

She laughed and the wallet appeared in her hand. "A misunderstanding... or a demonstration. That could just as easily have been a dagger in your throat, and your precious little gun still snug in its holster. Five feet away indeed." She laughed again. "I'm a juggler by profession." She produced a business card out of nowhere and handed it to him. "Nothing up my sleeve." She indicated the short sleeves of her T-shirt. "And a magician and a clown on the side. It seems I'm not the only clown here. What big shoes you have." She laughed again. "Now, will you behave yourself so we can get down to business? I'm late for a luau."

"Also something to be told, if you were a enemy Soldier, and i were still a SEAL with my M-468, you woulda been dead before you got within 100 feet, and if you werent a Diplomat, or a lady, and i am using that word loosely at the moment, i would gladly take you on in hand to hand after this summit, but seeing as you arent either, i will not"

"Also something to be told, if you were a enemy Soldier, and i were still a SEAL with my M-468, you woulda been dead before you got within 100 feet, and if you werent a Diplomat, or a lady, and i am using that word loosely at the moment, i would gladly take you on in hand to hand after this summit, but seeing as you arent either, i will not"

"Shush."

"Just give me my Wallet back"

Tomoyo arrived late and she was quite embarrassed. The AP Monarchs had already arrived. She slipped in and took a seat immediately in the back of the room.

Colonel Bauer, his 2iC Major Hawthorne and his Medical Officer Captain Fleming took there seats, mud flaking off there uniforms and onto the chairs, whilst the rest of the HQ section leant against the wall at the edge of the room. Hearing slightly raised voices from the direction of the Fatatatutti and United States of PA delgates, he couldnt help but smile. "That girl is quite a fighter isnt she? I wouldn't want to go up against her"

"Me neither, I think i'd come out with a few broken bones, I also think that PA guy is going to recive a few if he dosn't keep his mouth shut"

"Or she'll just keep reding him the riot act. I know how I would deal with both of them though"

"Oh?"

"Two words.....Bullshit Alarm, it would go off everytime they spoke" Bauer broke into a small chuckle along with Fleming. "I wonder when this so called confernece will start....."

ooc Noordeinde seeing you kept asking and i posted that i'll send someone you say yes or not

The Prime Minister took his seat as Chairman of the conference.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, several minutes ago I called this conference to order, So I would appriciate if everyone takes it's seat in silence, and that we start."

It became Silence in the conference hall.

"I hereby give the floor to the first delegation that arrived, the delegation of Fatatatutti, represented by Madam Harmony Chang."

ooc Noordeinde seeing you kept asking and i posted that i'll send someone you say yes or not

(ooc: Imperial Isa, afcourse your welcome to join, I'm even glad you came, your delegation landed at our airport, and they have been transported by an arranged Diplomatic convoy (http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3045/2892455413_dc6ce01d5e.jpg?v=0) to the conference, that btw just began, the floor is yours quite soon to make your statement.)

ooc using a helicopter mean they would have going right to the meeting and by passing need to use anything from you

ooc using a helicopter mean they would have going right to the meeting and by passing need to use anything from you

(ooc: it's afcourse not possible to land downtown,it's just to bussy and crowded there. therefor they have been re-directed to the airport from were we drove them by Diplomatic vehicles, which are armoured, to the conference.)

(ooc: it's afcourse not possible to land downtown,it's just to bussy and crowded there. therefor they have been re-directed to the airport from were we drove them by Diplomatic vehicles, which are armoured, to the conference.)

ooc you telling me you don't have any roof top landing pads and you still would got told no the Diplomatic vehicles won't be use and are not need

(ooc: why are you giving me such a hard time?!?! I'm organizing this conference in my city, and i'm teling you that their isn't any place to land downtown, what also means no rooftop landing pads, all air traffic lands at our international airport and from there the delegetions are being transported by a diplomatic convoy to the conference downtown!!!)

OOC: Isa, does it REALLY matter how the hell you arrive? The focus of this RP is the Ang Phillipines and how we can help, not if Noordeinde's city can land helicopters.

OOC:Jesus christ whats with him being so picky in this matter, a Helo can be more easily destroyed than a Armored Mercedes if you have a Stinger, you cant mistake a Diplomatic Helo for a Civvie car

OOC: Just because I ICly piss about shouldn't have ANY bearing on OOC. That thing with Parilisa was planed and done with their permition, you are going against the wishes of the Noordeinde, it is HIS thread, what HE say, goes. It is as simple as that, if he says he dosn't want you arriving by helicopter, you can't arrive by helicopter.

ooc: well just trust upon me, why might I harm your people, what your doing is total nonsense. And see how many delegations have been safely brought to the conference by my security people, this is a PEACEFULL conference.)

OOC: Want to add in an armoured divison and battleship to that too, just to make it even more unnesecary.

ooc mean i'am redoing the details to a IFV and 29 troops so i can us my own transport

ooc: i don't know if you ever read my embassy thread but our country doens't allow such militairy vehicles, and they would crush my roads, so come on deal with how I decide, your delegation can use my armoured vehicles, and if you would like your own "normal" armoured vehicles you can do that if you wish! just give me the brand type etc.And weapons are not allowed at the conference, if you would take them with you the will be taken by our secret service and you get them back when your leaving)

OOC: I was being sarcastic, that should of been easy enough to guess. Oh well on with the thread.

ooc think that be fine and no i have read that thread and Wolf why don't go back and read where the J10 caming from it say Fleet

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boxer_MRAV

(ooc:okay, please give me the brand and type of car, armoured or unarmoured, and as i sad, No militairy vehicles!)

The Prime Minister took his seat as Chairman of the conference.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, several minutes ago I called this conference to order, So I would appriciate if everyone takes it's seat in silence, and that we start."

It became Silence in the conference hall.

"I hereby give the floor to the first delegation that arrived, the delegation of Fatatatutti, represented by Madam Harmony Chang."

(ooc: imperial Isa, I still like to receive your choice for a car, and let's go on with this thread and opening of the conference.)

(ooc: well get lost, your giving ervryone a hard time, please spend your time somewhere else, your delegation has never arrived and because of a lack of information they aren't welcome anymore, GOODBYE!!)

The Prime Minister took his seat as Chairman of the conference.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, several minutes ago I called this conference to order, So I would appriciate if everyone takes it's seat in silence, and that we start."

It became Silence in the conference hall.

"I hereby give the floor to the first delegation that arrived, the delegation of Fatatatutti, represented by Madam Harmony Chang."

ooc: well let's get on with the thread!1

IC: "Madam Chang the floor is yours!!"

ooc: read the last post you aren't welcome anymore, stop annoying everyone who joins this conference!!

ooc wow you beg me oocly when i alreadly said no icly due not knowing your nation and you not knowing mine

and i'm not begging you, you stupid!

ooc: read the last post you aren't welcome anymore, stop annoying everyone who joins this conference!!

ooc i only just saw it as i was posting the other one Next time Don't ask oocly when you be told why not icly and been told occly why it not a good idea

and i'm not begging you, you stupid!
ooc go read AP thread you keep asking me

"I hereby give the floor to the first delegation that arrived, the delegation of Fatatatutti, represented by Madam Harmony Chang."

"Thank you," Harmony smiled. "I'm glad we could all be here. Even if we don't all see eye-to-eye on everything, we can agree on helping our less fortunate friends when they need us. I'd especially like to thank our representatives from the Wolf Hold for bringing us samples of Ang Philippines soil on their uniforms.

"I know that all of you have already contributed to the disaster relief. To be honest, I've been out of the country for quite a while, so I don't even know what Fatatatutti has contributed. I'm sure that every contribution, no matter how big or small, is appreciated by the people of Ang Philippines.

"I came to this conference for two reasons. First, to hear first-hand from the Ang Philippines representatives what kind of help they need. It's their country and we should help them in the way they want.

"Second, as I've already mentioned to some of the other delegates, I think we need a more permanent solution to the problem of international aid. It's fine for every nation to provide tons of food but what if there's no water? Or no medical aid? Or no search and rescue to find the victims who need the medical aid?

"For example, I heard that one nation - I don't remember which - provided desalinaization plants on their naval vessels. That's something that Fatatatutti can't do. Our naval vessels are too small - and usually too far away. But somebody else can do it. Another example, one of our delegations would not have been able to attend because they have no air transport. Fatatatutti has air transport.

"So, I'd like us all to think about what our nations can provide and also about what other nations can not provide. And I'd like to see some kind of central clearinghouse where nations in need can go to get what they need most. I propose a s'Gravenhage Accord, an agreement that we will always be ready in our areas of speciality.

"I welcome any discussion of this idea. Thank you, Mr. Chairman."

"Thank you Misses Chang" sad Prime Minister Roosevelt as chairman of the conference.

"And I hereby give the floor to Mister Bauer, representative of Wolf Hold."

"Thank you Chairman and thank you Misses Chang" Taking the floor some more bits of dried mud flaked off his uniform. "I am glad to see such a response to the Ang Philippines call to help. I can't actually remember if I have seen any of the attending nations personnel on the actual islands, but that is probably down to the fact that we all look the same in the mud" Smirking slightly "As you can probably tell and as miss Chang has already pointed out that for the past few days, I have been working alongside my troops and other organisations trying to deliver aid to the outlying settlements that are unreachable other then by helicopter"

"The Wolf Hold has deployed elements of the 15 Marine Infantry Division, The 15th and 21st Military Police Group and the 4th Crisis Response Group. We also have naval support from the Task Force Savage. This has given me 8,000 troops, 4,000 military police and 2,000 AID Workers alongside a large helicopter force and aviation force. All of the forces under my command have just recently come back from exercises in which we trained in dealing with situations just like this.

We have established several field hospitals in key locations of the Ang Philippines as well as our forward HQ and airfield near the capital. At the moment we have focused are efforts with search and rescue, distribution of aid to outlying settlements and medical evacuation. My Medical officer can tell you more on that, Captain Fleming" Colonel Bauer nodded over to Captain Fleming who continued.

"So far we have three major field hospitals set up by the personnel of the 3rd Crisis response group. These field hospitals can provide initial triage, intensive care and if the need be surgery. However there are only six beds available for critical casualties, meaning that as soon as the casualties are stabilised we can fly them out to the hospital ship WHS Larka's Blessing which has pulled up near to the coast. We also have triage centres set up in various locations, generally in the hard to reach locations, these centres are only to try to attempt to stabilise the casualties until one of our choppers can fly them out to the field hospitals.

This system is working so far, however are helicopters are tied up transporting troops and casualties and our resources are spread thinly. We need extra supplies for the triage centres and we need more hospitals. Sadly I must admit that the size of this disaster has spread are medical resources very thin. I'll hand back to Colonel Bauer" Taking his seat again, Bauer continued.

"Alongside the medical problems, my men have found that the countries infrastructure has been hit hard with several roads completely washed away and the rest damaged, rail links and bridges are gone or damaged. We are finding it very hard to transport material and personnel around without using are helicopter force.

We have an effective air delivery and evacuation system, are military police and marines are experts in these kind of situation, we have experienced pilots for C/SAR operations and hospital facilities for the casualties. However are supplies are running low, if other nations can provide, we can supply.

If there are no questions, Mr Chairman"

"Thank you Mister Bauer, I hereby give the floor to let's see... Mister Smith, oh hold on I see Misses Chang from Fatatatutti has a question, Madam chang the floor is yours."

Harmony raised her hand and looked around but there didn't seem to be any objections. "I think we can have another squadron of C-130s in Ang Philippines by tonight. Just let us know what you need and we'll stuff them to the rafters with medical supplies."

"Our main landing strip is located five miles to the east of the capital, Foward HQ Savage to be precise. If you can fly your C-130's there we can have our helciopter force, which consists of mainly CH-47s, SH-60s and a few other helicopters to fly them out to the triage centres and hospitals"

"any other questions? Otherwise we can go on to the next nation, Mister Smith, representative from the United States of Penssylvania, the floor is yours."

"My Nation is willing to send repeated Vessels, all 35,000 ton Container Vessels, capable of carrying 5,000-10,000 containers, containing Food, Building Materials, Medical Supplies, among other things. We are also willing to offer Financial Support to the Disaster Struck Nation of, as well as Free Reconstruction by Pennsylvania International Construction Inc., as well as 3 Hospitol Ships, the USNS Hopsitol, USNS Help, and USNS Life, each capable of acaring for up to 5,000 victims each, i know what a Typhoon can be like ,considering i have lived through one in the middle of the open with only a Hollowed Tree For Shelter"

Smith Sat back down, he tended to keep his speechs short and to the point

"Thank you Mister Smith, I hereby give the floor to Madam Tomoyo, representative from Kurona, Madam Tomoyo the floor is yours."

(ooc: Tomoyo is a woman btw, Princess)

Tomoyo took the stand.

"Good evening, Honorable Chair, fellow delegates, I've come all the way from Kurona to lend our support. It wasn't long ago that Kurona faced a long crises like the Ang Philippines. Terrible weather plagued us on a daily nation, and a few nations came to our aid. With out them, I'm not even I would be here today. That is the kind of grattitude I wish to extend to the people of Ang Philippines tonight.

The Royal Navy has set sail for AP tonight so that they may arrive by tomorrow morning. A core group of over 1000 volunteers ready to sandbag, build, provide security and help people pull their lives back together.

We have 250,000 High-Protein and high nutritional food kids to be given
350,000 Sanitation kits with hand wipes, toiletries, and other hygienic products.
and 150,000 bags for wheat and barley grains to be planted by farmers to continue their very livelihood.

Many local churches are starting charities to give as much money as they can. Kurona gives $5 million added to the $150,000 raised.

Our troops and volunteers need help, they'll need your help to get them to and where they need to go. A kind nation was able to fly me here tonight saving me hours of sea-faring time. I hope you can do the same with our men and women in AP.

If no questions are present I yield my time to the chair."

From the Department of Foreign Affairs of The Romulan Republic to the Government of Noordeinde:

The Republic wishes to send a delegation to attend the summit. The following information is transmitted as per your government's request.

Type of plane: Our delegation consists of members of our Embassy staff and diplomatic team already in Noordeinde.

Name of the Head of the Delegation: Mr. Thomas Morrison of the Department of Foreign Affairs.

Number of other Delegation members: Four.

Vehicles: We will accept your government's offer of transport.

Requests: None.


Our government possesses significant military cabability, which in peacetime we devote largely to reconstruction, development, and foreign aid. We could easily spare several cargo ships or planes loaded with medical, shelter, and food supplies, as well as search and rescue units, medical teams, and if nessissary, military peacekeeping units.

"Thank you madam Tomoyo and I hereby give the floor to Secretatry of State Wilson, representative of the Grand Duchy of Noordeinde, Mister Wilson the floor is yours."

"Thank you Mister Chairman. First I would like to thank al nations who gathered here in Noordeinde at this conference, just to help their fellow humans in the Ang Phillepines, so thank you!"

"But to the point, The Grand Duchy of Noordeinde has commisioned 2 Navy vessels to the Ang Phillepines, The Hr.Ms Johan de Witt (http://www.naval-technology.com/projects/rotterdam/images/rott19.jpg), which is a "Rotterdam class amphibious transport dock" this ship can launch coast landing vessels to bring first aide supplies to the coast, and up to 600 Marines who can help on the ground. Further the ship is equiped with a full hospital with Operating Rooms, Intensive Care and recovery rooms. All wounded people that we will help will be air-lifted by our helicopters to the ship."

"The other ship is the Hr.Ms Karel Doorman (http://img264.imageshack.us/img264/3007/hrmskareldoormanjy1.jpg), which is a Colossus-class aircraft carrier. Onboard are several Squadrons, existing out of a Squadron of 8 Grumman Trackers (http://www.vlaggeschipsmaldeel5.nl/assets/images/1433_vliegen_2__roel_.jpg), a Squadron of 4 Grumman F14 Tomcats (http://www.afterburnerseminars.com/resource/downloads/hi_res/F14-2.jpg), a Squadron of 5 S-3B Vikings (http://www.defenseindustrydaily.com/images/AIR_S-3_Viking_Launch_lg.jpg) and a Helicopter Squadron of Sikorsky S58 (http://www.vlaggeschipsmaldeel5.nl/assets/images/0199_sikorsky_s-58.jpg)'s."

"All Helicopters will be used for resques out of the water, and for the transport of casualties and wounded people to the onboard hospital of the Hr.Ms Johan de Witt (http://www.naval-technology.com/projects/rotterdam/images/rott19.jpg)."

"The planes shall be used for surveillance of the Ang Phillepine airspace 24/7, and for the search of people "in the stress."

"The Grand Duchy of Noordeinde will further supply the People of the Ang Phillepines with emergency kits and food and water supplies."

"And i'm proud to say that I may offer the Ang Phillepines 5 Million USD for the first steps of rebuilding and redevelopping, and this amount may rise in the future if the money is needed."

"At last, Mister Chairman, The Grand Duchy of Noordeinde will send a Lockheed C-5 Galaxy (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/99/Lockheed_C-5_Galaxy_taxiing_at_PDX.JPG) to the region to transport all aide supplies into the disaster zones."

"And I like to use this moment to support the proposal made by Fatatatutti, Thank you Mister Chairman, that was all."

"Thank you Mister Wilson, I hereby give the floor to Mr. Thomas Morrison, representative from the Romulan Republic, Mister Morrison the floor is yours."

Alice Norman had just arrived at the conference when the floor was given to the Republic delegation. She rose slowly, glanced around the room as she considered what she was going to say, then began to speak.

"Unfortunately, Mr. Morrison is not currently present. However, I am authorized to speak in his place until he arrives. My name is Alice Norman, chief Republic Ambassador to Noordeinde.

First, I wish to begin by offering my government's sincere condolences to the people of The Ang Phillepines.

Secondly, I wish to assure everyone present that the Republic pledges its immediate and continuing support. Our military is currently at a peacetime status, and at such times the main use of our defensive forces is to engage in development, foreign aid, and disaster relief. As such, we are more than able to provide substantial material support. At present, our government will pledge to deploy a hospital ship, and four large transport aircraft for the delivery of aid. In addition, we can deploy several search and rescue helicopters by carrier, and units of military engineers and medical teams. What supplies will be delivered and where our personel will be deployed depends on what the government of the Ang Phillepines feels is most urgently needed.

Now, unless their are any questions, I respectfully return the floor to Noordeinde."

Smith raised his hadn with a Qeustion

"Yes, what is your question sir?"

"2 Actually, just how much aid do you plan on Delivering, per day if possible?And about how many troops will you be deploying?"

"To the first, we would be bringing aproximately one cargo plane full of supplies per day until the state of emergency is past. The military contingent would number approximately 200 soldiers within the Ang Phillepines, in addition to the carrier we would have to place off shore to refuel the aircraft. Alternatively, if the Ang Phillepines could allow our planes to refuel at their airfields, it would remove the need for the carrier."

"Ok, thank you"

"I would like the floor!" exclaimed Keeling.

"And you should wait your turn"Smith said in a Authorative Tone

"Thank you Madam Norman, I hereby give the floor to Ambassador Keeling, representative of Greater Americania, Ambassador Keeling the floor is yours."

"Thank you" said Keeling, glaring at Smith.

"Greater Americania would like to know whether Ang Phillipines will be accepting our offer for aid?"

"I can insure you as Chairman of this confernce that all aid will be accepted, so Ambassador Keeling please make your statement, the floor is yours again."

Prime Minister Roosevelt sad in his role as Chairman.

"I can insure you as Chairman of this confernce that all aid will be accepted, so Ambassador Keeling please make your statement, the floor is yours again."

Prime Minister Roosevelt sad in his role as Chairman.

"We only will say that we will dedicate the resources we have indicated to the Ang Phillipines. We are doing this as a good will gesture to the Ang Phillipines, in hopes of improved relations with it and all other nations involved. We also with to remind Ang Phillipines that your embassy application has not been finalized."

"Okay Mister Keeling, thank you! I hereby give the floor to Christelle la Boétie, Appointed Special Envoy on the Ang Philippines Disaster, and representative of Létat, madam la Boétie the floor is yours."

OOC:
This Okay?

(ooc: yeah afcourse, butt could you be more specifi what a warhound is.)

OOC: If I rember correctly, it is a giant dog like beast the Sutufinai use as cavalry and beasts of burden.

(ooc: okay is fine with me, and I guess quite something spectecular to see. Butt as Safety precaution and because a Head of State, the President, will join the conference I will send a Motorcycled Guard of honor, the Marrechaussee (http://mpbundels.mindef.nl/20_serie/dp_20_10/images/20_10_h11_1.jpg), to conduct the Presiden't convoy.)

ooc: okay back to bussines.

"Okay Mister Keeling, thank you! I hereby give the floor to Christelle la Boétie, Appointed Special Envoy on the Ang Philippines Disaster, and representative of Létat, madam la Boétie the floor is yours."

OOC:
Greater War Hound (http://byowt1125.deviantart.com/art/Fenrir-Wolf-88813970): The Greater War Hound is a Giant Canine, roughly as large as a Clydesdale or Percheron Horse. As Sutufinai has no horses or motorized vehicles, the original "Hounds" were bred for size until they reached this current size (Some breeders still breed for size, but the overall consensus of the citizens of sutufinai is that they are big enough.), they are used as Cavalry Mounts and pretty much anything a horse was/can be used for.

For Military Service as specialized Ablative/ceramic plate and Kevlar suit of armor has been developed (Think Horse armor in 17th century). It can take anything up to a .50 BMG round, Anti-Material rifles have been known to penetrate the armor at it's weak spots. Combat trained War Hounds are known to use every weapon in their physical arsenal from teeth to claws.

Just so everyone knows...

Back in the day, Christelle la Boétie had been the unofficial leader of an unofficial union formed in a grungy sweatshop in southern Létat. Of course, the Revolution had shifted the ground a bit, and she had found herself suddenly running the town. Apparently she had done a good job to get mentioned in a Republican Front Council and was called up to be the Dirigeante of the Front's Normalization Task Force, on a whirlwind tour trying to restore life to bombed-out villages and cities.

So now she had been sent here, to help restore life to a nation beset by nature rather than war. But at heart, she was still a humble laborer who hated speaking in public, and it always took her a minute to settle in.

She leaned towards the microphone, took a shaky breath, and began:

"Th- the state- the People's Republic of Létat offers its sympathy and condolences to the people of the Ang Philippines. I add to that the personal condolences of myself, my colleagues, the interim ministers, the Chairman of the interim government, and many of our political leaders.

"The People's Republic believes the most important thing is to stop the suffering now. We have ordered our second fleet to the Ang Philippines with a simple mission: ensure food, water, shelter, and security for as many as possible. It is our intention to deploy the on-board desalination plants aboard our naval craft to provide fresh water for the Filipinos, to ship food aid to ensure people have enough to eat, to assist the Filipinos in rebuilding shelter, and to deploy marines and military and national police to ensure that in the strong do not prey on the weak in the aftermath of this tragedy.

"Unfortunately, ourselves recovering from a long period of civil war, the People's Republic cannot offer enormous amounts of monetary aid for long-term reconstruction. However, the interim government has agreed to grant the Ang Philippines $100 million in reconstruction aid and to purchase up to $100 million in government bonds. Additionally, the People's Republic will finance the creation of a Fund for the Ang Philippine's Typhoon Recovery to permit private citizens to donate what they will.

We hope that this will ease the burden of suffering. Thank you."

"Thank you madam la Boétie, you are verry generous! I hereby give the floor to Mister Ko Otani, representative of Motokata, Mister otani the floor is yours!."

"Thank you Mr. Chair." Ko began.

"Ladies and gentlemen of the Summit, there are many of us here from many types of governments. We have put whatever political differences we have aside for the sake of humanity.

Ang Philippines isn't more than 8500 nautical miles from Motokata, but since Typhoon Akiko left Motokata those 8500 miles made all the difference for them. It went from a weakened storm into a monster again. The aftermath of Akiko was light for us. But still nations have come to our aid to help us out. Now we must do the same for Ang Philippines. An island state is the most vulnerable to these storms.

We are ready to do what is needed, we have kits to purify water, we have the tools and technology to rebuild homes and buildings. And we have the respect to honor those who wish to maintain their life style. But AP has great opportunity now to expand it's economy. We want Motokatan business to invest in their fine country. More jobs for the now hundreds of homeless can be created. New investments can build their economy and raise the standards of living. We know what to do to clean up, now let's also look to their future. With AP's cooperation we will make a business culture to help their economy and respect their laws and culture. If there are any questions, I will gladly answer them, if no questions, I conclude my time."

"I don't see any hands, what means no questions, so thank you Mister Otani, I hereby give the floor to President Akitaro Daichi, Head of State and representative at this conference of Eeri, Mister President, the floor is yours!"

"Thank you. Good evening. We are all aware of the tragic circumstances in Ang Philippines tonight. A diverse culture no doubt rich in history and humble in the grace of God. I know it may be a good question as to where is God in all of this but I feel he has brought all of our nations together so that we can help our fellow man. My daughter Atoli is here with me tonight, and she's been the most enthusiastic to help. She's ready to set foot on to AP soil and work, work to rebuild their lives.

Eeri is ready with plenty of manpower to rebuild their lives. Let's not forget while we are there we are in a country that has adopted certain ways of living. Let's be respectful about that. Thank you."

"Thank you Mister President, and if I may say, you have spoken wise words,and I hereby give the floor to President Nathaniel Zanzibar, Head of State and representative of Sutufinai, Mister President the floor is yours."

Nathaniel, of course, had somehow managed to find a suit that fit him. Tapping the Microphone softly with a clawed fingertip, he made a soft 'hmm' sound before looking across the assembled people...

"I believe, at this point, it is Morning back home... But, Good Evening. The rather appalling natural disaster that affected these good people, has even reached my small nation's people. These circumstances could be no worse, and my people... and of course myself, would like to offer our condolences. While my own nation may not be a superpower or a world leader in technology... We believe it is the correct thing to do for a neighbor to stand up when things go wrong and to help you when you are in trouble or going through hard times."

Nathaniel Looked across the room and centering on the Camera (Unless the person from Ang Phillepinne was actually here, then he would look at him/her.) "I believe, that while we are not a neighboring country, that idealism still applies. We are all neighbors, in a way, and like in any community there are good and bad neighbors. The Nation of Sutufinai however, seeks to be a good neighbor and foster good relations."

"As such," He continued. "As the figurehead for my people, I was sent to offer our assistance to the people of Ang Phillepinne. We have ship sitting off our coast as I speak, loaded with all the nessasary building materials to construct a coal powerplant. Also offshore is a veritable Armada of ships carrying Hundreds of millions, if not billions of tons of Coal to fire that Powerplant." Nathaniel gave a smile, closed mouth as is Sutfen custom.

"We realize that there are 'better' forms of power out there, and that many nations do not agree with the use of coal as a power source. But please regard this as a stepping stone, one of the first in a bridge to recovery over the violent waters before you." Nathaniel nodded to the world, and possibly himself, "Sutufinai will also offer a unit of specially trained Greater War Hounds. These Hounds have been trained in search and rescue, however they are also trained as Beasts of Burden to assist you in areas where vehicles cannot go."

Nathaniel paused before shaking his head, "It pains me that the tides of fate have caused the need of this assistance, however Sutufinai will step forward to fight the tides of fate to assist your people." He gave a closed mouth smile again as his ears went forward, "As such, Sutufinai bids the people of Ang Phillepinne goodluck, and Godspeed."

"Thank you Mister President for your beautiful words, I can really see that this disaster "touched your heart", and I am sure the Ang Phillepines do really appriciate what your offering to do for them! Well let's ask themselves, I hereby give the floor to His Royal Highness King Jozefo Yamashita of the Ang Phillepines, your royal Highness the floor is yours."

"Thank you Mister President for your beautiful words, I can really see that this disaster "touched your heart", and I am sure the Ang Phillepines do really appriciate what your offering to do for them! Well let's ask themselves, I hereby give the floor to His Royal Highness King Jozefo Yamashita of the Ang Phillepines, your royal Highness the floor is yours."

"Thank you." He stood kissed his wife and took the stand.

"I come to you at a troubling time. A strong typhoon is wrathing our country. Truly never seen something like it in over a decade. This storm is terrible, and I'm frightened for my people. I'm so glad many of you have come to help. It was hard to come here tonight, to have to leave my children at home was a tough choice. I'm praying for their safety and I pray for the safety of your workers on the ground when the storm passes. Thank you."

Harmony looked up from the steno pad on her knee to see who was next. She looked in the chairman's direction and tried to will him to look at her. Apparently, that old story about staring at the back of somebody's head until he turned around was a myth.

"Thank you your Royal Highness. And I see on my list that each of the 12 countries who are represented here has had the floor, but is there anyone who would like to make a closing statement for his or hers Nation?"

Actually the Chairman noticed Madam Chang staring at him "Madam Chang?, If you would like make a closing statement, the floor is yours."

"Thank you," Harmony smiled. "I've been sitting here while everybody talked about what they've already done and what they're going to do - and that's great. I'm sure all the help will be appreciated by Ang Philippines.

"But frankly, it's been a waste of my time. We don't need a conference to tell each other what we're doing unless we use it to co-ordinate what we're doing.

"We all have our strengths and weaknesses. Some of our delegates here don't have air transport, so they couldn't even get here without help , yet they can contribute in their own way. Fatatatutti is strong in air transport but we have no means to get helicopters to a faraway nation - and helicopters are so important in this kind of work.

"I've been saying all along that we need some kind of central organizastion to co-ordinate these strengths and weaknesses, to make sure we have everything we need and that everybody isn't bringing the same thing. Fatatatutti doesn't like joining formal organizations - mostly because too much time is wasted in organizing the organization instead of doing what the organization is supposed to do. So I've been suggesting an informal organization.

"But nobody seems to be interested in that. So, instead of listening to you all drone on - no offense - I've been thinking about what Fatatatutti needs to do to improve our own capabilities. I guess we'll just have to let the rest of you fumble on the same as you always have.

She waved the steno pad that she had been writing in. "For a start, I'm going to propose to my government that we buy two cargo ships and convert one of them to a hospital ship and one to a helicopter carrier. I'm also going to propose a permanent, all-volunteer relief organization, with training provided as necessary.

"I don't like the idea of sending soldiers to do overseas relief work - even if it was legal in Fatatatutti. It's too much like sending the fox to guard the henhouse. Any yahoo who brings guns to a conference - or even to a relief mission - has much different priorities than Fatatatutti has.

"So, I guess we'll go it alone. Thanks for listening to me, even if you ignored what I said. Saying it out loud helped me to clarify my thoughts.

"Unless anybody has anything to say directly to me, I don't see much point in staying for the rest of the closing statements. I have things that need doing."

"Thank you Madam Chang, I see Mister Wilson has something to ask or say to you, Mister Wilson, the floor is yours."

Secretary Wilson began: "Well I think the Delegation of Fatatatutti, Madam Harmony Chang, is right. An organisation on planning and coordination would be great to have, and would make it way more easy to supply countries with first aide. And therefor The Grand Duchy of Noordeinde fully supports the proposal that has been made, just as I sad when I had the floor to make my Statement. And Madam Chang, if other nations arren't interested The Grand Duchy of Noordeinde is still intersted to have some sort of threaty with Fatatatutti about this issue."

"Thank you Mister Wilson, any other questions or closing statements, otherwise I am going to officially end this conference." The Prime Minister sad in his role as Chairman.

Bauer just glared at Miss Chang from across the room turning to his 2iC, "This bitch had the audacity to insult are men, who have so far selflessly delivered aid and medical attention to the people of Ang Phillipines, some have even gave their lives to help these people. Can you belive her?"

"No, sadly we can't help the views of these hippies, all we can do is try are hardest to help the people of Ang Phillipines."

ooc: please watch what your saying, calling someone a bitch isn't really appropriate.

OOC: At least have the balls to say something out loud so she can respond.

OOC: Think ICly she has just insulted his soldiers and he is going to be quite a bit annoyed, so it is appropriate, sorry if you took offence.

I was trying the subtle hint of the glare but obviously that failed.

OOC: He's been doing nothing but glare at her ever since they met. Speak up.

OOC: Assume he said bitch to his 2iC sitting next to him, i'll edit the post now.

OOC: He's 'across the room'. He's the one who's insulted Fatatatutti, claiming they don't do anything to help. Say something public so she can respond.

Still fuming about Miss Chang's comments, Colonel Bauer decided to challenge her on the matter. Standing up in his seat and glaring at Miss Chang.

"Miss Chang I sincerely do hope you do not mean to insinuate that soldiers deployed overseas can not be trusted to do aid work. Your little comment about the fox and the henhouse seems to suggest that you believe we intended harm on the people from the Ang Phillipines. My troops have been in the area since the beginning of this and have been dispensing aid and medical attention from that point, some of my personnel have even lost their lives in the endeavour to provide aid and assistance, so quite frankly I find your comment insulting to their sacrifice.

You say we fumble on whilst we are quite obviously making a difference, personally I have yet to see one ship, worker or ounce of supply come from your nation to assist in the effort. Also have you visited the island? Are your comments informed? I do not believe they are as they are most certainly wrong.

On the other hand your suggestion about some agreement would be good, we need some form of unified structure so we don't have little groups of aid workers from countless nations running about the islands, whilst they may provide localised help, small groups may not effect or may even hamper the bigger picture."

"Miss Chang I sincerely do hope you do not mean to insinuate that soldiers deployed overseas can not be trusted to do aid work.

"I mean to say flat out, not insinuate, that soldiers should not be sent to do aid work - especially not armed soldiers."

Your little comment about the fox and the henhouse seems to suggest that you believe we intended harm on the people from the Ang Phillipines.

"I didn't say a word about your intentions in Ang Philippines. However, the idiocy of bringing weapons to an aid conference speaks volumes."

You say we fumble on whilst we are quite obviously making a difference...

"I'm talking about making more of a difference."

... personally I have yet to see one ship, worker or ounce of supply come from your nation to assist in the effort.

"Your personal observations - or lack of them - are hardly relevant. I said quite plainly that I don't know what Fatatatutti is doing in this particular situation. If you want to look at our history of international aid, feel free, but don't insinuate that we don't help just because we don't do it under your nose."

Also have you visited the island? Are your comments informed? I do not believe they are as they are most certainly wrong.

"I'm at this conference to inform myself. If I've said anything that's 'wrong', feel free to be specific."

On the other hand your suggestion about some agreement would be good, we need some form of unified structure so we don't have little groups of aid workers from countless nations running about the islands, whilst they may provide localised help, small groups may not effect or may even hamper the bigger picture."

"Thank you for finally saying something relevant."

I mean to say flat out, not insinuate, that soldiers should not be sent to do aid work - especially not armed soldiers."

"So what if our troops are armed, they are trained well enough to know not to use them unless under the direset of circumstance. I can vouch that not a single shot has been fired on the Ang Phillipines and that I highly doubt one will. These soldiers have been specifically trained to deal with situations like this and are proably more well equiped then any other unit to assist in this matter."

"I didn't say a word about your intentions in Ang Philippines. However, the idiocy of bringing weapons to an aid conference speaks volumes."

"A simple mistake, we came straight from the Ang Phillipines and trhough a side door, we handed are weapons over as soon as we were acosted. We didn't threaten anyone nor did we draw weapons on anyone. We are soldiers miss, we carry guns, simple fact"

"I'm talking about making more of a difference."
"Such as? So far we have been to the best of our abilites, you like making points, then what more can we do?"


"Your personal observations - or lack of them - are hardly relevant. I said quite plainly that I don't know what Fatatatutti is doing in this particular situation. If you want to look at our history of international aid, feel free, but don't insinuate that we don't help just because we don't do it under your nose."

"Considering we are deployed across the island, I doubt your teams if they even were there, could avoid detection. If they are there they could be undermining the overall effort by providing spot care to just random areas instead of overall care to the whole area."


"I'm at this conference to inform myself. If I've said anything that's 'wrong', feel free to be specific."

"I am meerly pointing out, somthing you seem to like doing. Have you got relevant information before you critisize other nations methods, like you just critised mine.

"Thank you for finally saying something relevant."

"I meerly have the best interests of the aid effort, the lives of the Ang Phillipines and my own men and women at heart"

"So what if our troops are armed, they are trained well enough to know not to use them unless under the direset of circumstance.

Harmony laughed. "What are they going to do? Shoot a typhoon? Shoot the rubble off buried victims? 'Direst circumstances' indeed."

I can vouch that not a single shot has been fired on the Ang Phillipines and that I highly doubt one will.

"Frankly, I'm surprised that Ang Philippines would even allow armed foreign soldiers on their soil. It's an insult to their sovereignty. If you tried to pull a stunt like that in Fatatatutti, you'd be stripped naked and thrown into the cargo hold of the next plane out. Have you ever flown to God-knows-where, naked, in the cargo hold of a 747?"

These soldiers have been specifically trained to deal with situations like this and are proably more well equiped then any other unit to assist in this matter."

"If you'd left your guns at home, for the weight of one assault rifle you could feed a typhoon victim for a week."

"A simple mistake, we came straight from the Ang Philippines and trhough a side door...

"The fact that you brought weapons to Ang Philippines and from Ang Philippines...." Harmony shook her head. "Ludicrous."

... we handed are weapons over as soon as we were acosted.

Harmony smiled. "I'll refrain from calling that a lie. I'll just say that rewriting history doesn't change it."

We didn't threaten anyone nor did we draw weapons on anyone.

"Rewriting history again? It could be argued that you threatened me - not that I took it seriously. In the Fatatatutian armed forces, we're trained to disarm thugs."

We are soldiers miss, we carry guns, simple fact"

"Soldiers carry guns into battle. Only the insecure and the immature carry guns all the time."

"Considering we are deployed across the island, I doubt your teams if they even were there, could avoid detection. If they are there they could be undermining the overall effort by providing spot care to just random areas instead of overall care to the whole area."

Harmony laughed again. "I'm sure we're all very impressed by your detection abilities, Mr. Holmes. But maybe you should spend less time looking for Fatatatutians behind every bush and more on your aid program."

"I am meerly pointing out, somthing you seem to like doing. Have you got relevant information before you critisize other nations methods, like you just critised mine.

"As I've said - and more than once - I'm here to get relevant information. I criticized your methods because they're unproductive. Your soldiers are carrying guns when they could be carrying food. They're looking over their shoulders for boogeymen when they could be looking in the rubble for victims. Armed soldiers simply can not do as good a job as dedicated unarmed personnel."

"I meerly have the best interests of the aid effort, the lives of the Ang Phillipines and my own men and women at heart"

"You don't need guns for that."

"Maybe if you were not so fixated on the fact that we have guns, little miss you could do more to help. Every point you have made has more or less come down to the fact we have guns, we are sorry that are weaponry offends you, as I stated they have never been used, they have just been on our soldiers backs, however I am not here to debate Wolf Hold military policy with you, so can we move off the fact that weaponry obviously offends your young mind and move on. Just to point the fact out that we have not only deployed troops but also un-armed aid specialists as well.

What evidence do you base the accusation that armed soldiers can not do a better job then un-armed personnel? Each soldier has probably a greater sense of dedication then any other non military personnel. Frankly I believe that instead of laughing and making jokes at people who are actually trying to make a difference and you yourself mucking in and helping these people"

What evidence do you base the accusation that armed soldiers can not do a better job then un-armed personnel?

Harmony rolled her eyes. "I already said... what they're carrying in weapons and ammunition, they could be carrying in food and tools. It's simple physics. They could be doing more useful work if they were carrying less useless weight. And their attention could be better devoted to their work too, if they weren't looking for something to shoot."

Each soldier has probably a greater sense of dedication then any other non military personnel.

"Dedication isn't an amorphous 'substance'. You can't just be 'dedicated'. You have to be dedicated to something. If your soldiers are dedicated to disaster relief, then they're not good soldiers. If they're dedicated to defending their country, then they're not good aid workers. Sometimes you can switch back and forth between dedications but not always. And a schizophrenic dedication, which you seem to claim for your soldiers, is usually good at neither."

Frankly I believe that instead of laughing and making jokes at people who are actually trying to make a difference and you yourself mucking in and helping these people"

"I think it's time that you stop speculating on what Fatatatutti is or is not doing."

"Ladies and Gentlmen, I think this discussion is not in the best interest of the Ang Phillepine people, therefor I close this meeting. I would like to thank all nations first of all for comming al the way down to Noordeinde and second for all the help and aide you are willing to send, you can quite say that their sits a proud chairman in this seat, and I verry honored that I had the oppurtunity to be the chairman of this conference."

"And for everyone who is having a good, the bar is open, and afcourse for everyone who would likes to go home, your cars will be made ready to take you back to the airport or the port. I wish all of you a good and safe jerney home, and the best of luck in the future, and we will meet again soon!!"

Harmony frowned and walked over to the chairman. "Sir, I'm sorry to say it, but I think you've wasted my time with this conference. We didn't need a conference for nations to offer aid. The aid was already in place.

"I was hoping we'd get a chance to talk about how we can improve our aid programs in the future. And some people said, 'Yes, yes, good idea,' but nobody actually talked about it.

"And now, just when we do get down to the best way to deliver aid, you shut down the conference. I wish we could have continued the one thing I came here for."

"Madam Chang I understand, and I made a proposal, but of the record, Their are so far 3 countries interested in your proposal, including my own country. Therefor I invite you and Mister Bauer to come over to my official residence where we can discuss the whole matter. And ofcourse each other country that suddenly would become interested is hereby invited."

"Thank you," Harmony smiled, "and I apologize in advance if I continue to be hard on Mr. Bauer. He's stuck in his ways and afraid of change."

We're interested in attending this meeting, if you dont mind

"Good, your verry welcome Mister Smith. As soon as all other Delegates leave the Conference Building, first all of you delegates who are interested in Fatatatutti's proposal will be brought to to the Prime Ministrial Residence (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/6/6f/Catshuis-1.jpg), and I will leave as lost one, as host, with the whole Noordeinde delegation by my Cabinets Bus (http://www.mp-produktie.nl/images/kon-bus-15.jpg) to the Residence."

"Very well"

Otani stood and thanked the Noordeinde reps for calling the meeting and left for their cars. He immediately put State Holder Oda onto speaker phone.

"Otani, how did the meeting go?"

"Excellent ma'am. We are well coordinated and we have a detailed list of everyone's relief aid."

"Good."

"The Delegates of Fatatatutti were quite rude and inappropriate. Honestly I think AP should simply block their aid. Lousy Commies."

"Any qualms with Motokatan Business?"

"No ma'am, mostly with Wolf's Hold. And Chang basically called the thing a waste of time. I don't know what is so important that she feels she could have spent better time with."

"Yes, very good Mr. Otani."

"Hate to talk about someone behind their back. Maybe I should have told it to her face. But we're on her way to the airport now."

"Well just have our troops watch for any slip-ups to arrest them. Show here why military are deployed to disasters."

"Ah now, Ms. Oda, don't think we will have to go that far. We'll worry more about what's going on when the storm passes."

"See you back in Motokata, Mr. Otani."
