This time I interviewed another great guy and a good mate -soka . It's not often you hear about Vietnam in this game so i hope i managed to capture what this small country is like a bit.
I'm gonna do more of those interviews, you'll just have to suggest with who i should do them.
1. Greetings
soka !
1. Greeting my dear friend
Orlandio .
2. You're not a real life Vietnamise, no?
2. Not really, indeed i'm from Portugal but i was a bit bored with my country so i decided to try something new like help a new country in the game so i decided to go to Vietnam.
They were new in the game and needed a lot of help.
3. How did the locals accept you and are there more Portugese/foreign players?
3. At the beginning they thought that i was a PTOer.
But after my first article and after i created the IRC chat with 
rkiIler9999 they started to like me( i think). I'm not the only Portugese player there, at the beginning it was me and rkiIler9999 , both Portuguese. Later appeared 
Hi Guy , 
XaNkro (who is Pt but is never in Portugal so doesn't count) and some Chinese trying to do PTO... Now i have a lot of friends there - 
Taig4 , 
JNA (Serbia), 
TuRice , JunDevilz991 , 
kurodax and more. In my opinion they are great players. At the beginning i thought that they were newbies but they are really smart. Only need a little push.
4. How have you dealt with those Chinese PTOers?
4. I had no problems with them because i'm an experience player and i just need it to prove to natives. With activity, some article like the one you showed before and with some shouts i won their respect unlike the chinese that tried to take the power by making articles in chinese.
5. How long have you been in Vietnam and how long have you been the CP?
5. Let say that the process was very fast hahah, i have been there for 1 month and 7 days... and i've been CP since the beginning of the month.
6. Before that you've also been the president of Portugal?
6. 2 times.
I think it worked really well, i had amazing teammates. The first time i was a newbie but i had a lot of help and we did a good job, the second time we were only a few but we conquered almost all of South America.
7. Are you still active in Portugese politics and does Portugal help Vietnam in any way?
7. About Portugal helping Vietnam i think that they are not helping more because i'm Portugese but because they are allies just like the other allies that we have (i'm not talking about our MPPs because we only have one) and in our opinion our best ally is Malaysia, they are helping us a lot.
About me being active in Portuguese Politics i can only say that i don't know yet.
Let's see what happens, in this month i wasn't very active but who knows what can happen.
8. What alliance does Vietnam belong to/support?
8. We got ourselves a diplomatic agreement with WTF, i think it's our best movement right now, seeing that we are surrounded by WTF allies and we have no chance fighting against them so why not.
9. What do you see as biggest issues of Vietnam?
9. Very difficult to do a BB. It's not the kind of game that they like so it's not easy to reach them but i think it's not impossible, they have 90M people so we need only 500 people like that.
10. Thank you
soka , i hope you will succeed with your goal of making Vietnam a big country!
10. Is that a question or just to dispatch me delicately.
I loved meeting you and i only have to say that i beat the record of the biggest interview ever!

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.
