So, how about that RA split, huh?
#102

I think that another big question if we split MoRA is that, do we make 3 more discord severs or do we keep in all in one centralized server? Personally, I think that there is a simple answer to this. Just do exactly what we have right now in the MoRA server, but just make separate parts that are locked to peps who don't have the correct role. So say that I have the "Culture" role, I won't be able to access the Media section of the server. And vis versa. But I also think that we should keep the #fellow-lounge channel as a way for members of the 3 different departments to be able to discuss or collaborate on things (For example, say that the Ministry of Culture is hosting an event, but they need a cool logo, they can ask in the channel if the Ministry of Engagement would be able to make one for them). 

Another thing I would like to bring up is that in the proposed amendments that Somy wrote, we end up having a 6 vote cabinet which, isn't very good as a vote can finished tied 3-3.  However with an un-even number, a vote can never end up as a tie. So personally, I really liked the idea of have a Local Council representative be a part of the cabinet. This is good for a number of reasons. One, we have a 7 vote cabinet meaning that no votes can result in a tie. Second, it will be a way for the Local Council to have input on the major government decisions because as of right now, the LC acts almost as a completely separate branch of the government with little to no input on the rest of the government's actions. 

Finally, I've made my own version of the amendment to the Charter (it is taking Somy's and putting my own twist on it):
 
The Charter of the Coalition of the South Pacific Wrote:VI. THE EXECUTIVE Establishing an executive branch consisting of the Prime Minister and the Cabinet.

...

(2) The Cabinet will consist of ministers with the following portfolios: Foreign Affairs, Regional Affairs, and Military Affairs Culture, Integration, Media, and Defense, along with a representative from the Local Council.

...

Minister of Regional Affairs

(7) The Minister of Regional Affairs will be responsible for promoting regional and forum activity, integrating new players into the forums, organizing cultural events, and communicating with the world about the South Pacific’s activities.


Minister of Culture

(7) The Minister of Culture will be responsible for supporting the roleplay community in hosting festivals and roleplay related activities along with organizing regional cultural activities such as events, exchanges and festivals both domestically and abroad with our allied regions.

Minister of Integration

(8) The Minister of Integration will be responsible for recruiting and integrating new players into the Coalition's government and community, maintaining public infrastructure such as dispatches, announcements, forum posts and other guides, setting unified presentation standards, and providing graphics to the government and citizens of the Coalition.

Minister of Media

(9) The Minister of Media will be responsible for overseeing the regular publication of government sponsored public media, including news content, in the South Pacific though both forums posts and regional dispatches making them accessible to anyone.

Local Council Representative

(10) The Local Council Representative will represent the views of the Local Council in votes and debates in the Cabinet but they may not represent their own personal views when in their position.

(11) However when not in their role as Representative, they may express their views and opinions as a free citizen.


...

Minister of Military AffairsDefense

(13) The Minister of Military AffairsDefense will be the civilian leader of the armed forces of the Coalition, the South Pacific Special Forces. In conjunction with a group of Generals, the Minister of Military AffairsDefense will be responsible for the defense of the Coalition, building military activity, and conducting military operations.

(14) The Minister of Military AffairsDefense may elect to establish an intelligence office, in equal coordination with the Council on Regional Security.

Also, from some discussion we've had in the Discord server, i've seen multiple people bring up the fact that "Integration" doesn't work fully. So although I'm using it in the amendment above, I think I could be changed. I thought maybe we could name it the "Ministry of the Interior"  because it's purpose is to upkeep the current infrastructure along with creating new infrastructure (When I say "infrastructure", I am referring to dispatches, graphics,  forum posts, announcements etc...). 

Last thing. I think that Clause 10 could be changed from: "(10) The Local Council Representative will represent the views of the Local Council in votes and debates in the Cabinet but they may not represent their own personal views when in their position." which is what I've put in the amendment, to this: "(10) The Local Council Representative will represent the views of the Local Council and the RMB in votes and debates in the Cabinet but they may not represent their own personal views when in their position.". Let me know if I should change this and/or the thing in the paragraph above.
