| Message | 1. Landowners will be compensated for losing farmland under this law. However, we feel that it is important to avoid monopolies from emerging, and by encouraging small-medium farmers, we can encourage diversity and local produce. 2. We have a population of over 200 millions. In such a densely populated country, we owe it to citizens to ensure that they are not being poisoned by their compatriots. We also have a duty to act responsibly for the whole planet of Terra and it's future. 3. Public waste disposal is an essential service, and we can ensure a consistent standard. We would also want to use the opportunity to encourage people to recycle more of their domestic waste. |

| Message | Opposed. art 1. This will damage our industry and not realistic. The current situation is a perfect balance between protecting the environment. art. 2. This will harm the environment. The state must ensure that industrial and residential waste is disposed properly. Private companies can do the job more cost effective. art3. Nostalgia. We did not expect to read about these communist ideas from the KPF. This will damage food supplies severely caused by a drastic fall of production. "Small is beautiful" , doctrines are out of date. |
