Placid Reborn is pleased to announce its inception. Our headquarters are currently based at the Federal Navy Assembly Plant at Stacmon V, Moon 9. The focus of Placid Reborn shall be on returning the region of Placid to a level of stability conducive to increased trade, a greater standard of living and the revitalisation of not only Intaki culture but the heritage of all other ethnic groups within the region.
Additional inquiries can be made at our headquarters at Stacmon, our offices in Intaki or by contacting members of our organization directly.
Our policy platform is centred on (but not limited to) the following key issues:
Increased Security and Stability
The Gallente Federation has allowed the region of Placid to stagnate and fall prey to unscrupulous bandits, crime syndicates, political extremists and terrorist organisations. The majority of the systems in Placid have been declared by CONCORD to be low-security zones.
If the Federation continues to refuse to intervene to improve the situation either directly by use of the Navy or via the use of CONCORD forces, then Placid Reborn will strive to fill the vacuum by conducting patrols of the region.
Furthermore, we shall petition the emissaries of the electoral candidates for change as well as ask for a formal declaration of their views regarding the future directions for relations with Placid and The Syndicate.
Greater Role for Intaki in Regional Affairs
Intaki culture and heritage has for too long been regarded as a primitive legacy by the Federation elite. It is time for Intakis to celebrate their identity and take a greater responsibility for leading our people towards a brighter future.
We also seek recognition of Intaki identity as a valued but culturally distinct member of the Gallente Federation. GalNet must begin this process by reflecting our ancestry correctly when recording our transmissions.
Formal Recognition of Rights for Minority Groups
Placid Reborn wishes to see a greater recognition of the rights to political freedom and cultural expression given to other minority groups of Placid. This includes not only the significant number of Minmatar but also those of Mannar and other descent.
Our organisation is firmly opposed to both slavery and the trading of slaves.
The Exiles and the Syndicate
We ask that those Intakis privileged and talented enough to have risen to the ranks of the pod pilot community support our efforts for greater Intaki unity.
The machinery of the Federation has long maintained a duplicitous and deceitful charade. While on one hand turning a blind eye to the Syndicate’s role in the trafficking of illegal goods to feed the obsessions of an increasingly jaded Federation elite, it has on the other vilified the Syndicate as a haven for terrorists and criminals.
It is high time that Intakis, both within Placid and the Syndicate come together to mend these broken bonds and forge a new unified spirit and strength of purpose to reclaim our cultural and spiritual identity.

does this mean u will actively be hunting the 'pirate community' in placid or is this just fancy rhetoric.
does this also mean that u will be setting corporations to -10 or just hunting the yellows and blinky reds?

Welcome to Placid where all peaceful people of all races are welcome.

While I whole heartedly agree that currently the federation presence in protecting its citizenry in Placid is a joke. I do not understand your obsession in trying to factionalise the federation?
I am sure you are just as informed that currently the president of the federation is an Intaki, as you must certainly be aware that the majority of our beurocracy and branches of government are run by Intaki. I am probably ignorant on what is going on there, but i think if you wish to force the Federation in accepting more Intaki culture, perhaps you should look at what the government is, a conglomerate of multiple races, of which Intakis play a role. There are of course the Gallente, although I think their role is diminishing, the Intakis, mannars which I think have so far no say on the going on the federation, and finally Matari which form a considerable power block (keeps us at constant odd with the Ammarr empire).
I find your subtle exclusion of other federation members to participate on defence of federation space rather disturbing. Any how I wish you the best of luck in defending Placid, hopefully your persence will make the system safe for its people.

may you succeed where others have failed, the Intaki need a center. Should we let the Amarr and Minmatar paramilitary corps have all the fun? Establish your self, conduct your self with dignity and by all means burn your self a place among the stars.

As an employee of Placid Reborn I'd like to thank everyone who has wished us well, especially Mz. Johnson from Ekliptika and Kal'Zera from the Commonwealth Union.
Amorlune, I would like to address your comment:
Originally by: Amorlune While I whole heartedly agree that currently the federation presence in protecting its citizenry in Placid is a joke. I do not understand your obsession in trying to factionalise the federation?
I would think that a federation formed with four different member races (now three) is innately fractured, or factional. That is hardly our obsession, rather it seems the reverse.
Originally by: Amorlune I am sure you are just as informed that currently the president of the federation is an Intaki, as you must certainly be aware that the majority of our beurocracy and branches of government are run by Intaki. I am probably ignorant on what is going on there, but i think if you wish to force the Federation in accepting more Intaki culture, perhaps you should look at what the government is, a conglomerate of multiple races, of which Intakis play a role. There are of course the Gallente, although I think their role is diminishing, the Intakis, mannars which I think have so far no say on the going on the federation, and finally Matari which form a considerable power block (keeps us at constant odd with the Ammarr empire).
Certainly, Souro Foiritan is of Intaki ancestry and there is a significant portion of governmental and diplomatic positions occupied by Intakis, but I would not go as far as to claim we are a majority. One should be reminded that they are only officials in a Gallente Federation, not the other way around. If our needs as Intakis were truly represented we would have a free and secure homeworld and surrounding region; we do not.
When we seek out further recognition and the preservation of our cultural base we do so as a race in a position to lose that very culture. It may seem difficult for you to understand this as a member of the hegemony rather than as a subject thereof but I can assure you this is the case. Even many Intakis have difficulty recognizing their own cultural dilution, so I can understand your confusion.
Originally by: Amorlune I find your subtle exclusion of other federation members to participate on defence of federation space rather disturbing. Any how I wish you the best of luck in defending Placid, hopefully your persence will make the system safe for its people.
We have not excluded any other member races from defending the Federation, in fact, it is the Federation that has overtly excluded our member race (especially our homeworld) from adequate defense. We are merely representing the interests of a safety and resulting freedom from aggression that we as equal members of this Federation are wholly entitled to. Other members are free to do the same, and we have made no claim to the opposite.
Anyhow, I thank you for your comments and your wishes.

Small localised operations have already begun in this regard.

It means we will use whatever methods we deem appropriate to uphold our charter. *smiles wryly*
Babs, I hope to be in touch shortly.
*bows to Phantomas* Thank you kindly. We hope to be worthy of that mantle.
Many thanks to you all for your vocal support!

Seems you have finally decided the yoke was a bit too tight...
I would point out that a free, secure homeworld may be easier to have if the Gallente fleet, especially their beloved Orbital Bombers, is kept as far as possible. But then again, I'm probably biased on this subject.
I wish you good luck in your path, and mutual understanding among our cultures. A Home is worth fighting for.

Rest assured that many of us understand our fragile position and its parallels to the Caldari Secession. I thank you for your point and appreciate your encouragement, Herko.

Not much hope there IÆm afraid, the list of CONCORD failures is only rivaled by the size of their bills. Our beloved president has made sure our navy is placed in an equally pathetic position so you wonÆt be finding any support there either. The only bright side is that Foiritan canÆt ruin our navy much further then he has already, we can but only hope Blaque wins the elections and restores our navy.

Intaki are found in high ranking positions just as often as Gallente (A somewhat poor example would be our President) and a lot of the highly skilled artists are Intaki too.
Granted the low security status of the Intaki and surrounding star systems makes exploring Intaki culture difficult for those not well armed.
All in all quite interesting news though. ------------------

That is the very issue I believe we are addressing, Mr. Foiritain: you aren't aware. As I said before, there are Intakis in the Federation government but they are agents of a Gallente Federation. I will be publishing a paper I have written on this subject shortly, in a series on the Intaki condition, should any be interested.
Originally by: Joshua Foiritain Granted the low security status of the Intaki and surrounding star systems makes exploring Intaki culture difficult for those not well armed.
It does much more than that. It closes our trade routes, restricts our space lanes, and effectively isolates and criminalizes our homelands. This is another topic on which I will be exploring in my series.

Edited by: GoGo Yubari on 03/09/2005 17:02:44 While recently my own opinions on the best course for the Intaki culture as a whole are somewhat divergent from those of the Intaki Reborn, I salute their efforts.
Indeed, it is actions such as theirs -- occurring within the Federation -- that stop me from making that final conclusion ; that the so-called "Intaki" within the Federation are hardly deserving of the racial name. Yet, hope still exists (as it has always existed) that our old ways will be revitalized even there.
I believe our true home is the Syndicate now and that any progress within the Placid region is to be made with the assistance of the Caldari State (which owes a blood debt), but as always, there will be differences of opinion. May they -- according to the ancient Intaki practise of open-mindedness -- strengthen the cause.
I would also like to give credit to CometQueen for taking up the topic so vocally recently. As one of the oldest supporters of Intaki separatism among the pod pilot community, I am glad to see the topic become publicly discussed once more.
[Edited to add one last interesting tidbit: ]
Oh, and I once brought up the bitter matter of the Intaki bloodline's status within the Gallente Federation up with the current President of the Federation. His reply was quick, but spoke volumes ; he said that there "are only tied hands" within the Federation, hence the lack of action on his part. Though I have often been vocal in opposing the Federation, or any CONCORD supporting state, I fully support the incumbent President's campaign for another term of office.

That is an interesting note indeed, Mz. Yubari. May I ask if he suggested any ways to "untie" those hands? I may not share your enthusiasm for President Foiritan but I do not see him as a direct threat to our cultural-national identity inasmuch.
I only wonder that if the elected leader of the Federation claims there is nothing he can do for our (and indeed his own) bloodlining what hope would civilians have in securing our true identity through that very government? Tied hands, red tape, platitudes, apathy: all Federation traditions.

Unfortunately, he did not. We met at not the best of times as it was just after the Etarel massacre, where I was attending (entirely uninvited, I assure you) the Quafe movie release party which ended in the appearance of the terrorists (as one who was there, I must say the whole event was staged: the massacre was nothing short of a publicity stunt by the Quafe corporation). So, my meeting with the President was very brief.
But I digress.
I've often wondered at what exactly the President meant with his words and indeed if there is any way to do as you suggest. Who knows? Perhaps you, working within Federal jurisdiction, are in a better position to investigate the matter.
One thing I have considered, however, is that perhaps the President's less well known (but entirely factual) ties to the Intaki Syndicate are a means of dealing with those restrictions, or if they are merely a personal indulgence?

Thank you for your informative reply, I was not aware of the President's ties to the Syndicate. I believe we still have much to discuss, Mz. Yubari, perhaps in a less public place; feel free to drop by our Neocom channel "PlacidReborn" anytime.

Indeed, in my travels I have come across all kinds of interesting information, such as the President's less publicized links to the Syndicate. As things go, I prefer to be informed about the politics of my home and have made myself well versed in the regional situation since my departure from my long-standing empire base of operations in Oyonata some months ago (now that's another story entirely ..).
But yes, perhaps the discussion has run its course on this forum.
