| Message | Dr. Fu Manchu; Candidate Minister for Foreign Affairs for the RLP, wishes to put this bill up for the kind consideration of the Convocation. "We can see no cause to put other nations through inspection and approval of our Foreign Office if they wish to open an embassy on our soil. This can only inhibit the flow of commerce and information, thereby marking us as a backwater in the flow of international intercourse. We are proud of our culture and our nation, and wish to allow any other nation to come here and see for themselves a superior, freedom loving land and peoples." |

| Message | We support this as well, but we do have one question, is there going to be anything in place to keep track of who sets up an embassy here? After all, hostile nations may use it for illicit reasons. |

| Message | We will be voting against it simply out of concern for national security. We agree with the spirit of this that all nations should be permitted to have an embassy on Likatonian soil without having to go through all that bureaucratic red tape.... but you know, security is important. |

| Message | AMA supports the logic of our allies in AM SLP. We shall oppose, for now. |
