Bill: National Service Act of 4608
Details
Submitted by[?]: Liberal Party of Zardugal
Status[?]: passed
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: November 4608
Description[?]:
| The Liberal Party, by the will of the people, believes that: 1. The defense of the state is a prime duty of the government and the people, and in the fulfillment of this duty all citizens may be required by law to render personal military or civil service. 2. It is the duty of the citizen to contribute to his country's development and welfare and to cooperate with the duly constituted authorities in the attainment and preservation of a just and orderly society. 3. To serve the urgent needs of a developed country such as the Great Empire of Zardugal at present and in the foreseeable future, it is equally vital to enhance respect for the law and lawfully constituted authorities and provide for, promote and develop civic consciousness and participation as it is to insure national defense preparedness. 4. The citizens of our country, particularly its youth, as the most valuable resource of our nation, need to be motivated, trained, developed, organized, mobilized and utilized in regard to their responsibilities as citizens particularly their commitment to civic welfare, their respect for the law and lawfully constituted authorities and the fulfillment of their military or civil obligations. Therefore, we resolve to: (1) Make the national service obligatory for all citizens of the Empire. "National service" shall consist of three main programs namely: civic welfare service, law enforcement service, and military service. (2) Each citizen shall render national service in any of the three main programs stated in Section One(1) of this act or a combination thereof, provided that such service shall be credited in his favor for the purpose of fulfilling educational requirements established by law. (3) Consider refusal of national service as a criminal offense. |

| Message | I totally and absolutely agree with this amendment, especially clause 4, in which you say that the youth need to be "motivated, trained, developed, organized...." In the spirit of your own bill, I will implement new regulation to allow our treasured youth to enter the workforce, a place in which they will find motivation, training, development, and organization. |
