| Message | ANP strongly opposed, because this act can lead the member of parliament and government doing corruption. Current law still relevant. |
| Date | 18:58:53, May 04, 2014 CET | From |  National People's Front (NPF) | To | Debating the Salary for Government |
| Message | We look at it as it is they still keep and have a separate job on the side. Corruption will always be president if there is low or high salary, everyone always wants more money. And honestly how is a "Average" Salary even better to "not have corruption". Maybe we should enforce programs to make sure that Parliament Members will not accept these 'bribes'. |

| Random fact: In cases where a party has no seat, the default presumption should be that the party is able to contribute to debates in the legislature due to one of its members winning a seat at a by-election. However, players may collectively improvise arrangements of their own to provide a satisfying explanation for how parties with no seats in the legislature can speak and vote there. |
