I ask the gathered members of this legislature to pass the agreement made between the Centrists and Populists. Approving this agreement means automatically supporting the establishment of this first administration.
AGREEMENT CONCERNING THE FORMATION OF THE GOVERNMENT
The First Myksos Cabinet
A government agreement between National-Centrist Party of the Rising Sun - National Republican Party of Norfolk and the United Jingdaoese Populist Party - Partito Populare de Tyrenia.
The administration will be led by Alexander Myksos, as Chancelor of the Grand Secretariat.
1. Interior Policy
The government supports a limited autonomy of the several dependent States and strong cooperation between those States and the Imperial Government. The rules of the federal government will always overrule local laws. Projects which promote unity must be supported, while respect must be shown to local customs and traditions.
To avoid a shirerithisation (balkanization) common values and symbols must remain.
2. Foreign Policy
The Jingdaoese Empire must stand strong and must expand a more important role in its foreign policy. We strongly oppose a rapprochement with Shireroth and consider Apollonia a continent were imperial powers from other continents should not play a role. Apollonia for the Apollonians. Cooperation with Apollonian states must be promoted to protect the continent against imperialists, mainly in Northern Apollonia.
3. Military Policy
The States will deliver the bulk of the military personnel and equipment in case of war. A good coordination between the States is deemed necessary. National Defence Programs must be developed in case of a foreign invasion (or to take counter-measures).
4. Economic Policy
a. The Government will support States with the development of 'young' industries whenever this is requested by those States.
b. A national bank must be established to mint a national currency and bind the several currencies to be able to decently compete with foreign economies. The National Mint will have monopoly over the minting of the currency of the Empire. A limited amount of a local version (with regional symbols) may be minted and will hold the same value.
c. Preferably, trade will be limited to parts within the Empire and the import of cheap foreign goods must be halted. Exceptions on these rules are nation with whom Jingdao has reached a trade agreement. The imported goods must, in such a case, be manufactured in that country.
