Marko: All I know, is that this talk is making me remember stuff, because I’m getting a headache hearing you talk about communists. I’m remembering something about Vietnam and communists, that’s all this headache is telling me.

Elsa: Pigor! Ta med en sval handduk till mannen! (Maids! Bring a cool towel for the man!)

Gita: No actually I think he might be remembering his language!

Just then a maid would arrive with a cool towel and place it on his head.

Larson: C'mon boy.... stop thinking, take deep breaths and focus on the food.

Gita: You poor man...

Gita stared concerned at Marko, while Elsa carried on eating.

Marko sighs before setting the towel to the side and starts eating again, trying to get his mind off of what just happened.

Once dinner was done, Larson would stand up.

Larson: It was lovely seeing you again my daughters. I'm going to be leaving now for the temple, I'll be back soon. As for you Marko, don't worry you're in good hands.

Elsa & Gita would wave as Larson left. Now, there were three at the table.

POLITICS

| Since 1990 when the military of Champong booted out the Soviet-backed socialist regime of Chairman Manilo, the country has been ruled by the coup leader, Captain Rajah. Upon entering power, Rajah established a military council that has ruled the country with an iron-fist, even so, the charismatic leader's authority has been fading in recent years. Despite being popular among the generations of Champese who grew up under socialism, the 70 year old dictator has fallen out of favour with younger generations of Champong. Across Champong, mass protests have been taking place with many Champese demanding a civilian government. Many of these young protesters are led by Laila Chan, a 25 year old former lawyer turned activist who upon returning from the US Paramountica has begun demanding Captain Rajah hand over power to the people. |

ECONOMY

| In 1990, the Rajah-led military junta gradually begun reversing the policies of the previous socialist regime. Since then, private enterprise was re-introduced into the Champese economy, with relations opening up to Western countries and the foundation of a domestic stock exchange, wide-scale investment into the Champese economy and private sector has led to economic growth taking place at an average annual rate of 6.2% since 2000, making Champong one of Southeast Asia's fastest growing economies. Since the liberalisation of Champong's economy, huge capital has been raised to launch numerous infrastructure projects such as new highways, railways etc. Even so, government spending on education and healthcare has dropped significantly in the past 10 years resulting in recent strikes that have called the potential of the Champese economy into question. Many experts argue if the massive wave of protests doesn't stop soon, Champong's economy may experience a crash. |

SOCIETY

| Under the socialist regime of the past, Champese information was strictly censored to pro-government media & information only for the consumption of the masses. However, under the Rajah military regime, despite the military holding total power and instituting a series of repressive laws to maintain iron fist control on power, the country has been at its most free in history. Many libraries across the country have finally begun to gain access to Western books and journals on ideals such as Ermanism from Germany Bayern kahla among others, in addition, many private news agencies have been given permits to operate whereas prior to 2005 they had to operate underground. Even so, the freedom of information has led to more criticism of the Rajah regime and the lack of personal freedoms in many regions of the country. For instance, in the east, many Melanesian minorities have been subject to martial law with curfews, and Christians who form less than 10% of the country's population, have regularly complained about persecution. Champese society has also been named one of the most unequal societies on earth with the rich to poor income disparity being huge. These social issues have been a key contributing factor to the mass protests taking place across the country. |
