eBelgium International Reputation - Immigration

we all know eBelgium is a very small player in the eRepublic world.
But it seems are community is getting bigger and more active each day .

we should really support this more, and try to get foreigners to move to eBelgium,
the question i have is; what makes eBelgium intresting nowadays regarding a possible move to eBelgium?
and how could we support the immigration more?

one of the best ways to get people to come to belgium is money.
Good paying jobs.

For that we need a better economy.

Quite frankly, eBelgium is far from being a pleasant country to live in.

The only thing I see that could attract people is the fact that eBelgium needs active people in goverment. So, people who want to be more active in politics (i.e. : take a job as minister, SS or ambassador. Getting elected in Congress or start a new political party is another thing) could be interested. That being said, there are plenty of other countries that are in the same situation.

The best way to have more population is to have a babyboom. You won't attract hundreds of foreigner this way. And if you do, it would probably be suspicious...

And why would immigrants be suspicious? What is suspicious is what they do AFTER they get here, but an Immigrant that comes here, gets involved, lives, works and participates in Belgium is far from being suspicious.

We just want to keep out those that come here just to vote for one power blok or another. This is why I sponsored, and recently was passed an Immigrantion Control Commission. So all can agree on who should be granted citizenship and who should not.

I meant "You won't attract hundreds of foreigner at once this way". Sorry.

Although I guess that with an Immigrantion Control Commission, there wouldn't be a problem. I didn't know about it though, as I don't have access to the Congres forum.

I believe , if immigrants come from EDEN or Phoenix countries they should be treated with suspicion.
And it is nothing against them , but we don't want huge groups of people coming into the country , which will troll threads saying Hail EDEN or Hail Phoenix , threatening our nations neutrality because of their loyalties still to their "former" countries.
I will use DanieCox as an example.

Daniecox isn't even a Belgian Citizen, he is UK.

i agree about the trolls lads, but we really need more (ACTIVE) people in this country, so what options do we have
- baby boom
- immigration
- get the newest eBelgian citizens more involved

this should be 3 society key elements if we want to have a bigger player base, also a bigger player base will have a positive inpact on our economy.

I couldn't agree more. Problem is, HOW? got any ideas?

- get the newest eBelgian citizens more involved

Hence every military announcement is based on the forums. Hopefully they'll read some stuff when they check their orders.

Is it possible for the goverment to organise a roll call for all all belgian citizens?
this roll call could be organized on the forums, and the roll call could stress the importancy of it

what do you mean by this?

I guess a roll call like the one for the military we have now.

unfortunatly, the ones who need to call on the military roll call have something to loose when they don't call (their soldier status) while the civilian population has not ...

exactly, you can't make a 2-clicker do what they don't want to..

never thought about that, hmm your right though, its hard to track who wants to be involved and who doesn't that's why i proposed the roll call idea, but as you said the civilian population have nothing to lose (unfortunatly).
maybe a reward system in exchange for people who are active on the eBelgium forum in exchange for a small amount of BEF or more state support, i don't know if its realistic because i have no idea about the amount of money it would cost, but if something like that is possible then i am pritty sure the eBelgian society will benifit from it.
maybe the goverment could have higher taxes to fund this and the most active people would gain benefit over those who don't want to contribute to the eBelgium future?

S**T! I just realized I forgot to do a roll-call at the weekend

Thanks for reminding me

LMAO!

Those who want to get active, already do... You can't force anyone to become active if he's not interested. We can either make it interesting (a one time reward won't do the trick, I'm afraid) and keep lowering the barrier to become more involved (although it is pretty lowalready - unlike many nations, this country isn't in the hands of a closed beta-giant elite).
