With this notification we hope to quell the ignorance that has been observed recently the Omicroners, and [ALG] and other Trading groups.
The families and groups within kusari should also be aware of the changes to the law, and operate within it's boundaries.
We are sorry for destruction of an ALG vessel recently, but if you cannot obey the law in our space, you should probably expect tragіc consequences.
Due to recent the recent dissolution of the Treaty Of Aomori, the Kusari Naval Forces have been acting upon new updates concerning the law.
The legal codex has been updated to include:
Quote:Space near Aomori station is reserved only for the Kusari Naval Forces (ID+IFF) Any other craft which enters that space will be destroyed on spot upon refusal to leave.
Space in vicinity of planet Kurile is reserved only for the Kusari Naval Forces (ID+IFF) and Allies. Any other craft which enters that space will be destroyed on spot upon refusal to leave.
All movements to Okinawa system are restricted. Only Samura, Kishiro and Interspace commerce can enter Okinawa with restricted rights.

Guten Tag
We are greatly saddened at the destruction of one of our vessels. This is the 2nd such loss in Kusari space recently.
All of Rheinland had been enjoying the increased trade with Kusari, as I am sure the Kusarian corporations had been too.
We are considering any actions that we may wish to take in resposne to this on our part, however for now, while the [ALG] find these restrictions frustrating, we will endeavour not to get in your way again.
-Rudi Bergmann, Chairman ALG

Good evening, my name is Otto Brandt, I'm representative of the ALG Board of Directors.
The Board was introduced to revised Kusari Legal Codex not long ago, and many shareholders were intrested in fate of Miura terraforming project. After fruitful, but long discussion, I was tasked to contact you and find out if it's possible to continue terraforming procedure.
The ALG is responsible for delivery of one of the main components terraforming requires - terraforming gases, which're produced either on Dortmund, or on several laboratories throughout Rheinland planets, depending on danger they pose to the surrounding world.
Miura terraforming takes a lot of time, and while your and GMG's relations may be extremely unfriendly, stopping said project may lethally pose on population of Miura. Furthermore, if the GMG looses conflict, I don't exlude possibility Kusari will claim Miura. I don't think Kusari goverment is that obstinate to understimate time spent by the GMG on terraforming of this planet - if it's lost, terraforming will have to be started again, and thousands of credits will have to be spent again.
On final note, the GMG pays us off not only by credits - also by cheap resources we're willing to supply Rheinland with.
That's why I'd like our shippers (and their own escorts) to be allowed to ship cargo into or out of Okinawa.
High command has reviewed your transmission and in the light of otheragreements the relevant changes have been made to the legal codex.
However we will, of course, still be enforcing The Emperors will on the matter of trade with the Gas Miners Guild:
Quote:The export of any products from Kusari space to any GMG base is forbidden.
The export of any products from GMG bases to any base is forbidden.
Until instructed otherwise, we cannot condone trade with the Guild. This should not affect your business with Kishiro Technologies, whom I believe deal with terraforming gas.
Office of Taishō Kondo,
Kusari Naval Forces.

Terraforming gases go to the Miura terraforming project. While Kishiro may be part of the project, we're not directly engaged in trade relations with them.
Otto Brandt the complex details of business are not within my area of expertise, however: it was my understanding that Rheinland vessels would be mooring/docking with bases of Kishiro technologies, Interspace Commerce, and possibly Deep Space Engineering.
The emperors word forbids direct trade with GMG bases only.
Quote:The export of any products from Kusari space to any GMG base is forbidden.
The export of any products from GMG bases to any base is forbidden.
This means you are free to take terraforming gas to any base, except those of GMG.
I hope that clarifies the matter for you. Shōshō Takahashi
