Our country works fine, businesses flourish, Country Treasury is in its best condition ever, we have a well-handled supply and mentoring program for the beginners (which is common only for the biggest s-countries) and many open possibilities, shortly: Switzerland is in her prime-time. However history teaches us, that it often takes only one generation (in this game one month, maybe less) to take the well-prospering countries, even major empires from their golden age straight to the bottom, misery and stagnation. In order to not only keep the current state of affairs but also push us forward I have decided to take even more in my hands and so I am announcing my candidacy for President of Switzerland.
The President's accomplishments are only attainable if he has a solid, well laid out backup within his Executive Cabinet. The President might be eventually responsible for the job, but he is hardly the one who actually gets things accomplished. Also you have to have someone who is both willing to make changes and decisions, but at the same time also willing to let others take the initiative to create, implement, and improve upon what is already in existence. Without allowing others to experience those things, you end up with one person in charge of everything, and we all know that it is irresponsible to expect one person to stay logged in for 24 hours a day.
I would like to start with my Cabinet at the same time presenting also a fraction of my plans. I chose these people based on their ability, rather than their affiliations of any sort. They are all good at what they do, I selected only doers, not talkers. There is only one minister for each office, he oversees his post, hires deputies and takes responsibility for his and his companions' work. I cannot imagine the situation where two equal ministers accuse the third one of disrupting the work of their department. We can't have any disagreements of this kind, so the final responsibility and final word always belong to one chief minister. Apart from that chief ministers are also duty bound to educate their deputies to eventually become their successors. We obviously can't rely on those same people all the time.
Vice President:
For my deputy I chose former four times CP of Switzerland. I can always use his experience and connections. I also take it for a solid milestone on a way to unify Switzerland. This is exactly what we need the most now. Nothing else to say is necessary here.
Minister of Foreign Affairs:

Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs:
When it comes to Foreign Affairs - I have decided to continue my work with this office. I have already learnt, that foreign representatives prefer to contact country presidents, they often tend to believe that MoFA's office is just a decor, especially considering the fact how relatively small in terms of inhabitants our country still is. However I also hired some helpers. John_Locke is fluent in three different languages, he's got some experience from last month and who could be a better candidate to strengthen our connection with Serbia, if not Handsome Rob? Together with schwitzer we are genuinely fluent in 8 unique languages and this certainly helps a lot. There is nothing quite like more personal approach to foreign representatives.

Deputy Minister of Defence:
This post requires something more than logging in every once in a while. Although often you just put up orders and move on, you may never know what will happen in the next minute. As a MoD you have to stand guard over the situation almost all the time. Ever since the last NAP with Austria came into life, we do not have any sudden RWs. However let that not fool you, enemy does not sleep, and also slowly but surely we are ready to become the hunter, not the game. You may now begin to grasp what options are open for us. Mkoz has been around for some time, and knows what it takes to put together a military that works. What I like about him the most is his genuine willingness to help. ZjemCiSlodkie and Mafia with their huuuge experience will provide perfect help and advice.
Minister of Finance:
He was the one who revivified our CHF and so helped significantly to refresh our product and job market. Without his genius and experience from MoF posts from several countries our economy would certainly looked worse today. It pays to work and hire people in Switzerland again! He will continue his work towards further economic growth and will make sure that our currency does not turn into toilet paper. Also he is now a Congress Member which obviously comes in handy.
Minister of Education:
deputy Minister of Education:
Last but not least, the Education Department and lots of fresh blood in here. Main task as usual: apart from inviting new players also keeping them alive. Whatever a new player deems to provide fun will be considered and supported. If they are having fun and enjoying themselves they are more likely to log on tomorrow.
If you think that your nickname should be on that list, please do not hesitate to contact me . We can always do with some more help.
Qualifications, why me of all?
I am a really active citizen and one of Switzerland's top heavy hitters, always ready to help her, even without drawing my hand out for government supplies. Over past two months I spent lots of gold* for Schwiiz and dealt tons of (properly and effectively targeted) damage. You could have seen me in virtually every battle our country was directly involved in, in all Resistance Wars that took place and also one time during retaking Tyrol after it was liberated for one day. I have been also fighting hard for our allies, I could name 8 countries, whose IRC idlers remember me for that.
I planned on running in CP elections for a long time, therefore last month I volunteered for the MoFA position with an intent to build a set of connections that will help us during the current and forthcoming term. I served searching for allies, co-managing the dialogue with Austrians, finalizing the agreements, conducting the arrangements and trying to get acquainted with as many foreign representatives as possible. This will yield profits in the near future.
I serve as a Mentor answering new player's questions and I have also supervised two last Civil Wars, which turned out to be major financial successes. You can read the report from the last one in my previous article.
Apart from that I have been elected to Congress (also at Primera), as well as for the Party President (on both servers).
Finally the RL: I like to save it for myself, but I can mention that I am almost thirty and without false modesty - I consider myself a mature and reasonable person, always open for discussion. I hope that all that and more than one year of eSim play time is more than enough to put on a CV
*Apart from obvious tanking I have also covered i.a. the costs of developing Switzerland Progressive Forces to Regular. I believe a solid MU with a free entry is one of our most underrated successes and at the same time one of our key hopes for the future.
I have already said alot about what I intend to do. Another one of my goals is allowing both experienced, and new players take part in Cabinet. New talent means refreshment and possible future replacements, but you have to have some older, experienced players who can guide things along and get us smoothly through tough times. You cannot have merely one or the other.
Making more leaders is one of my absolute priorities. For players who want to get ahead, we do our best to secure them training positions in our government as trainees. That should go without saying that we are open for everyone.
Together with Caffrey's cabinet we have worked hard and achieved a lot in both foreign and domestic policy. Now we only need to continue this work. We have many plans to carry out. Some of them I cannot share with you, not yet at least, also I have already run out of characters limit
One way or another future is bound to be interesting as long as we all cooperate. If you want to ensure it and let us continue with the Progress, vote for me on Tuesday.
If you have questions, please don't hesitate and either contact me via PM or find me on IRC**. I appreciate your vote and your support so that I can achieve our goals as President for February.
**I am available both at Rizon (AgentT i.a. @ #secura.ch) and Quakenet (Agent_T or AgentT e.g. @ #secura.ch).
In unity,

About the game:
USA as a world power? In E-Sim it is possible!
In E-Sim we have a huge, living world, which is a mirror copy of the Earth. Well, maybe not completely mirrored, because the balance of power in this virtual world looks a bit different than in real life. In E-Sim, USA does not have to be a world superpower, It can be efficiently managed as a much smaller country that has entrepreneurial citizens that support it's foundation. Everything depends on the players themselves and how they decide to shape the political map of the game.
Work for the good of your country and see it rise to an empire.
Activities in this game are divided into several modules. First is the economy as a citizen in a country of your choice you must work to earn money, which you will get to spend for example, on food or purchase of weapons which are critical for your progress as a fighter. You will work in either private companies which are owned by players or government companies which are owned by the state. After progressing in the game you will finally get the opportunity to set up your own business and hire other players. If it prospers, we can even change it into a joint-stock company and enter the stock market and get even more money in this way.
In E-Sim, international wars are nothing out of the ordinary.
Become an influential politician.
The second module is a politics. Just like in real life politics in E-Sim are an extremely powerful tool that can be used for your own purposes. From time to time there are elections in the game in which you will not only vote, but also have the ability to run for the head of the party you're in. You can also apply for congress, where once elected you will be given the right to vote on laws proposed by your fellow congress members or your president and propose laws yourself. Voting on laws is important for your country as it can shape the lives of those around you. You can also try to become the head of a given party, and even take part in presidential elections and decide on the shape of the foreign policy of a given state (for example, who to declare war on). Career in politics is obviously not easy and in order to succeed in it, you have to have a good plan and compete for the votes of voters.
You can go bankrupt or become a rich man while playing the stock market.
The international war.
The last and probably the most important module is military. In E-Sim, countries are constantly fighting each other for control over territories which in return grant them access to more valuable raw materials. For this purpose, they form alliances, they fight international wars, but they also have to deal with, for example, uprisings in conquered countries or civil wars, which may explode on their territory. You can also take part in these clashes, although you are also given the opportunity to lead a life as a pacifist who focuses on other activities in the game (for example, running a successful newspaper or selling products).
At the auction you can sell or buy your dream inventory.
E-Sim is a unique browser game. It's creators ensured realistic representation of the mechanisms present in the real world and gave all power to the players who shape the image of the virtual Earth according to their own. So come and join them and help your country achieve its full potential.
Invest, produce and sell - be an entrepreneur in E-Sim.
