So what is the government planning to do with Malaysia's remaining territory? Why isn't the government trying to take over KL and end this war once and for all so the Philippines can advance to another level of playing field? Does the government feel sorry for the Malaysians that they chose to spare Kuala Lumpur and let the Malaysians have it? How about the constant threats posed by the Malaysians to the Philippine soil? Won't we be able to quell their uprising by taking over the entire Malaysia?
Well, I am not really sure what's going on in the minds of our leaders right now because to be frank, the government has always lacked transparency in their actions especially on the Philippines' foreign relations; just like when they suddenly decided to join the United Nations without asking for the sentiments of the Filipinos about it. The Filipinos ought to know what's happening in their country. We are the motor of ePhilippines. Without us citizens, this country would be nothing.
Self-induced stagnation
If the Filipinos are not feeling progress in regard to our rise in Primera, it's because of the government's decision to contain the power and strength of the Philippines. By joining the United Nations, we have deprived ourselves of the opportunities to expand our territory because we've allied with countries like Taiwan, China and Indonesia, two nations we have chance of conquering because they are relatively weaker and more disorganized. Trust me, I have lived in e-Indonesia for a short while and those Indonesians act on their impulse. They do not have a system yet they were able to take over countries like Australia and Chile. The Philippines, on the other hand, an e-nation with a more 'civilized' society and a mature political system, appears to be chickening out from realizing its optimum potential because our government is too afraid to take risks.
Why are we so daunted about other nations in e-Sim? Is it a projection of the inferiority complex that we Filipinos have in real life? If that's the case, it's time to immune ourselves of those feelings because in e-Sim, we're at an advantage. Why doesn't the government use our leverage to compel other nations into doing what we want them to do? Did you know that more than 30% of the United Nations's strength comes from the Philippines? Bakit hinahayaan nating maging sunud-sunuran tayo sa kanila? Why can't we use this to our advantage through threats, coercion and extortion? Diskarte.
If there's one thing the government should do, it's that it should trust its citizens, that we have their back and we will support whatever endeavor they want to undertake no matter what the risk is. Because at the end of the day, the ideologies and our personal interests don't matter. When all is said and done, only one thing remains, that we are Filipinos living in one Philippines, prepared to [die] for this country.
Ang mamatay ng dahil sa 'yo, remember?
A balanced attention on domestic and foreign politics is the key
Based on my observation, our government is focusing too much on domestic politics that we're neglecting the importance of having loyal foreign allies. I mean, who are the Philippines' friends on e-Sim really? Are we even trying to reach out to other nations and communicate with them to strengthen the rapport and ties between us?
I mean, really, instead of the usual electioneering, politicking and power tripping, please perform and execute the roles that you need to do. Disappointment is not what we voted you for.
Maraming salamat. Mabuhay ang Pilipinas!

About the game:
USA as a world power? In E-Sim it is possible!
In E-Sim we have a huge, living world, which is a mirror copy of the Earth. Well, maybe not completely mirrored, because the balance of power in this virtual world looks a bit different than in real life. In E-Sim, USA does not have to be a world superpower, It can be efficiently managed as a much smaller country that has entrepreneurial citizens that support it's foundation. Everything depends on the players themselves and how they decide to shape the political map of the game.
Work for the good of your country and see it rise to an empire.
Activities in this game are divided into several modules. First is the economy as a citizen in a country of your choice you must work to earn money, which you will get to spend for example, on food or purchase of weapons which are critical for your progress as a fighter. You will work in either private companies which are owned by players or government companies which are owned by the state. After progressing in the game you will finally get the opportunity to set up your own business and hire other players. If it prospers, we can even change it into a joint-stock company and enter the stock market and get even more money in this way.
In E-Sim, international wars are nothing out of the ordinary.
Become an influential politician.
The second module is a politics. Just like in real life politics in E-Sim are an extremely powerful tool that can be used for your own purposes. From time to time there are elections in the game in which you will not only vote, but also have the ability to run for the head of the party you're in. You can also apply for congress, where once elected you will be given the right to vote on laws proposed by your fellow congress members or your president and propose laws yourself. Voting on laws is important for your country as it can shape the lives of those around you. You can also try to become the head of a given party, and even take part in presidential elections and decide on the shape of the foreign policy of a given state (for example, who to declare war on). Career in politics is obviously not easy and in order to succeed in it, you have to have a good plan and compete for the votes of voters.
You can go bankrupt or become a rich man while playing the stock market.
The international war.
The last and probably the most important module is military. In E-Sim, countries are constantly fighting each other for control over territories which in return grant them access to more valuable raw materials. For this purpose, they form alliances, they fight international wars, but they also have to deal with, for example, uprisings in conquered countries or civil wars, which may explode on their territory. You can also take part in these clashes, although you are also given the opportunity to lead a life as a pacifist who focuses on other activities in the game (for example, running a successful newspaper or selling products).
