It is the fact that Japan is nullified and our current influence on the esim history as a nation is close to none.
However, it isn't like we shouldn't seek the reform. While currently meaningless it could be great help for restarting the economy
if we manage to get at least 1 region somehow.
Below I'll try to present some ideas and explanations why I believe we should go the proposed way.
TAXES:
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
VAT TAX on ALL --> 0% - Our small market will be lacking even without additional tax.
Taxes would kill any initiative, however if you believe that TAX at 0% is somehow bad, we should use import TAX instead and promote domestic producents/providers (Japanese citizens and orgs) at the same time.
IMPORT TAX --> 0% or 2% (if our citizens will be able to provide all goods - bigger rise (even to 99% if we'll get really stable economy someday) , income tax would be used to repair the National budget (instead of VAT)
INCOME TAX --> 0% (let's face it, our country won't be able to get good regions if there won't be any really big revolution, 0% can make our country competitive in atleast some industries.)
And if we succeed to be more stable then maybe one day we will become 100% tax free resellers market?- It's just one of many possibilities.
ALTERNATIVE MARKET/BRINGING BACK THE YEN

eJapan is tired
Our Taiwanese occupants have set the import taxes to 20% to almost all industries making really hard for eJapanese to compete and forcing a lot of our producers to sell at other markets.
However most of eJapanese citizens are still living in the occupied territories and they can't even buy from native producers and support fellow eJapanese.
This also leads to very loose form of our community.... we're just not using all the means we could to build our Japanese community on this server.
What I propose is the system ofusing direct donations/contracts to evade the taxes and better know each other, work for better tommorow for our nation.
We could trade in gold or JPY. Gold is generally more tradeable so I guess for start it should be it.
So how do we know what others would like to sell/buy?
Well the half of the answer is simple: While Japanese Market cannot be used to buy stuff from it , you can still post offers to show other people. The rest can be discussed in PMs.
However JPYhas become kinda rare and ustable + we would probably want to trade in gold for starters so we will need somestable exchange rate for offer-posting:
Here's what I propose:
a) Option 1
1JPY = 0,005 Gold
+ kinda easy to calculate
+ gov prints money at that value (so if we start trading in JPY gov won't exploit this system)
+ there are single gold for JPY sellers around that value
- if we get regions very suddenly and market goods will become buyable again , sellers could lose monies
b) Option 2
1JPY = 0,01
++very easy to calculate
+ gov prints money at 0,005 value (so gov can keep the exchange rate at this rate somehow, but it would be hard)
c)Option 3
1JPY=0,05
+ kinda easy to calculate
++simmilar rate to Taiwanese and Chinese as well as many other esim countries
+ no money-market manipulation needed
+ in case of sudden successfull rebelion , sellers don't lose
d)Option 4
1JPY=0,1G
--market manipulation needed
+ in case of sudden successfull rebelion , sellers don't lose
++very easy to calculate gold values of products
Option X
e)1JPY=???G (other)
IMO the option 3 (JPY=0,05G) would be the best, because there aren't really bad problems in it and it doesn't need any government intrusion (it's freest and most capitalist one)
Let's use some YEN to get the good stuff!
PS.I know that everyone is lazy and it's summer Holidays for many but please consider those changes in future economy.

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).
At the auction you can sell or buy your dream inventory.
E-Sim is a unique browser game. It's creators ensured realistic representation of the mechanisms present in the real world and gave all power to the players who shape the image of the virtual Earth according to their own. So come and join them and help your country achieve its full potential.
Invest, produce and sell - be an entrepreneur in E-Sim.
Take part in numerous events for the E-Sim community.
