| Message | We the Jakania Solution for All Party decline this bill. We ask that opposite party make the country name in United Jakania Republic instead of having it in Al-Ǧumhūriyyah al-Jakaniayun al-Muttaḥidah (Jakania). The flag is ok in the meantime, but we regret declining this bill due to it's country name. We ask for another similar bill like this but the country name has to be United Jakania Republic or United States of Jakania. Thanks Steve Law |

| Message | We will seek permission from the International Cultural Heritage Organization if we can use the Luthorian version. It will be unlikely that they will allow us to change our name as this country is not Luthorian but Majatran. Our nation's official language is not Luthorian but Majatran and Jelbo-Tukaric. We either use Jelbo-Tukaric (Turkish) or Majatran (Arabic). General Mustafah Muhammad |

| Message | These list are against our favor. We want the Luthorian version. Furthermore we are going to propose a new bill that will make Jakania official language to be Luthorian. There are huge percentage of Jakania citizens who don't understand the official language. By letting the official language to be luthorian, different ethnic groups can communicate well. |
