Ishukone-Raata Public Release - Black Rise Stability Initiative >> Lonetrek Region >> Sela Constellation | Malkalen Solar System >> Malkalen V - Moon 1 - Ishukone Corporation Factory | Ishukone-Raata Administration Offices
Saisieni Summit,
It has been three months since the Ishukone-Raata Enforcement Directive announced its plans to aid in the stabilization of the Black Rise region.
With an economic focus driving these efforts, the Ishukone-Raata Directorship moved to create the Black Rise Stability Initiative, noted hereafter as BRSI. In those three months, Ishukone-Raata and its subsidiaries have made progress in producing a healthy, competitive economy in the Onnamon, Ichoriya, and Samanuni systems by bringing a total of 20 billion isk of materials to local markets. We plan to increase the amount of investment to 34 billion isk within six months, while still subsidizing Black Rise infrastructure expansion and pacification efforts.
In the future, Ishukone-Raata will be adopting our previous Free Trade Zone model, as originally employed in the Intaki system, and applying it to the BRSI.
It has been a productive three months since our arrival in Black Rise. The pilots and general staff of I-RED look forward to many more productive months building on the BRSI, working in concert with our allies in the militia, and the dedicated pilots of Praetoria Imperialis Excubitoris.

I would like to second Revenent-haan's message regarding our appreciation for our militia allies, and especially the pilots of Praetoria Imperialis Excubitoris who have provided advice and specifications as we've transitioned into a new theater of operations.
Lieutenant Kernher and Captain Shutaq have both been assets of great value; to both PIE and the pilots as individuals, you have my thanks.

The efforts of the Ishukone-Raata Enforcement Directive in the Black Rise region are most appreciated. Federation forces have withdrawn from several key systems and we are already seeing early signs of improvement in quality of life indices for many of the embattled systems in the region.
State Protectorate forces look forward to further co-operation with Ishukone-Raata, towards a better future for all State citizens in Black Rise. |

I too would like to extend thanks to Revenent-haan and all the pilots who have put their lives on the line to maintain the security of Black Rise.
The stability they've created have been instrumental in the start of my corporation and several others. The Rise now has a vibrant market, new colonies and the morale of the people is the best I've seen in quite a long time.
That being said, we still have a lot of work to do. We still have Guritas issues. Several systems have reported sightings of the mysterious cloaked structures and their Circadian Sleeper counterparts. And as always, there is the ever-present threat of the Federation. But we prevail. We rise.
Special thanks to the pilots and crews of Praetoria Imperialis Excubitoris. Your dedication and generosity will not soon be forgotten.
Black Rise Colonial Exploration is currently developing new lines of trade and logistic support within the Rise. If any specific help is needed, please do not hesitate to contact us. We provide ships and equipment by special order to State Protectorate pilots at a greatly reduced price. Let us know what you need so we can help you do your jobs better.
For the Rise!

While it may not be appreciated coming from me, I'm glad to hear the Black Rise markets are improving. We Caldari need this region in order to remain competitive with the other nations. Any strong investment in the fledgling economy of Black Rise, be it through SCC markets or business-to-business transactions, is to be celebrated. |

If you are going to encourage free trade, you are going to need to remove or inhibit elements that disrupt free trade. Also, you are going to need infrastructure to support trade. Individuals are going to need to be incentivised to allow such free trade to exist through either reward or punishment. When large scale threats to trade become clear, collectively, your organization must respond en masse.
While larger threats to trade are clear, smaller threats are also present. Continual vigilance and well thought out intelligence networks and counter intelligence is highly valued in order to allow the free flow of goods and services to continue. |

Yes. We are well aware of this and we are working hard to make a solid foundtation, not just turn an ISK. Only a fool counts money in a burning house.
So thanks Revenent-haan and everyone for helping out. People are buying things almost faster than we can make 'em, so that's good. It's going to be a slow, steady process, but we can make Black Rise what it was always meant to be!

Respected Mr. Revenant,
I also wish to express my thanks for the efforts of the Ishukone-Raata and its stability initiative in the Black Rise region.
I would like to point out that the constantly changing wormhole passages within high security space is a serious matter for the regional market and security issues as well. I observe more and more space vessels crossing those trans-stelar borders with more or less subtlety. Chances and risks may be obvious. I suggest to take this into account and attempt to realize a continuous exploration and charting for changing wormholes in the Black Rise region, maybe with real time access for your partners and allies. Black Rise Colonial Exploration may be a possible partner for you. I've worked with this young and committed organization. They are a reliably and professional partner in exploration. CEO Jukko Riis already introduced himself above.
Sincerely,
Haria Haritimado

I am proud of the efforts put forth by my parent corporation, our allies in the militia, various third party Statesmen, and the dedicated pilots of PIE in shifting the scene of Black Rise into a more prosperous, stable region. I echo the sentiments of those before me that there is still much more work to be done. There is more investing, more building, more cooperating, and more policing that needs to be put in place.
On the latter front, I say that those who are concerned with Black Rise security be a little more at ease as I-RED has been, and continues to, operate diligently to excise the Guristas tumor that has thoroughly entrenched itself in the region. Progress has been slow, but steady. Extensive plans are currently in the works to boost progress. Pirate capsuleer elements will prove a little more difficult, but with careful action perhaps their activities can be reduced.
Fair profits.

Thank you, Haritimado-haan.
We would certainly support an effort to get as much intel on the wormhole/Sleeper ss possible. While we've been lucky so far, if they should become aggressive, we as a species would be in danger.
We would also be willing to assist I-RED and others in removing the Guritas presence in Black Rise once and for all. We're a new corp and maybe we don't have the numbers or power of the larger corps, but this is our home.

On behalf of the Intaki Prosperity Initiative, I'm happy to congratulate our long-standing friends in I-RED on their latest successes in Black Rise.
I have great confidence in I-RED's abilities to build on their early achievements in the Aokinen constellation.
Eojek wrote:If you are going to encourage free trade, you are going to need to remove or inhibit elements that disrupt free trade. Also, you are going to need infrastructure to support trade. From my own experience, working alongside I-RED in the Intaki system, they are experienced enough to know what is required to make the BRSI succeed. In particular the Free Trade Zone model that was implemented, in agreement with the IPI, in the Intaki system was a success for all of those involved.
I have no doubt Aokinen and the rest of Black Rise will benefit in the same way.

Congratulations to the I-RED to finally change their path from traitors to do something useful for the State.
It is quite good and surprising development, taking into account all recent I-RED statements. However, to completely repair I-RED reputation such liars as Korsavius and Makoto Priano must be dealt with.
Especially it doesn't add respect to I-RED while such dishonorable coward as Makoto Priano is allowed to talk for a whole alliance.
I wish you could faster solve these little problem and return Caldari spirit to your corporation. |

I'm eagerly awaiting news on how the stability part of this initiative is to be delivered.War zone systems change hands with mind gnawing regularity, and whilst the addition of a few more State aligned pilots is nothing to sneer at, and whilst every shattered FDU hull is to be cheered, neither contesting systems nor hulling bad guys will bring stability.
Even economic renewal is a bit of an own goal if your trade hub station flips.

Well it's a good thing then that the trading hubs are all in bordering non-contested systems, isn't it? |

These are your choice of words. Please try to keep your personal grudges out of this otherwise fruitful discussion.
"Aokinen needs all the help it can get" was said provocatively, because I do not think Black Rise will be controlled from there.
In comparison with the Intaki market, for example, the markets in Aokinen have been established right at the beginning of the conflict and developed over the years. I know this, because I've been part of it directly as supplier and then user, and indirectly, as owner of suppliers. The fate of war-zone systems was never linked to any scarcity in these markets as at the best of times, they were rivaling Jita prices for the most commonly used goods, and at worst were subject to selected manipulation of select items in order to attain higher profits, which this endeavour is mostly all about. Slightly bloated prices ahve been referred to me by individuals as "taxing LP".
What has a direct impact on the combat readiness of pilots is ship availability close to key systems, especially staging/station systems that are worth defending. Nennamaila can be namedropped in this regard. Staging from high-sec has never been a good move used by any group I've seen as the entrances are routinely blockaded.
As all this is hardly rocket science the question regarding stability can be legitimately asked. What kind of stability are we speaking here? A stable SCC market has been there from the beginning, although it can always benefit from expansion. Investing capital into this is a sound business proposition and will most likely lead to attractive returns of investment.
Over the course of this thread it has moved from talking markets to talking 'security' and other fancy buzzwords provided by third parties, which has spawned the question that was asked by Pieter Tuulinen.
Ruthlessness is the kindness of the wise.

As proven with Ishukone's policies in regards to business with the Intaki people, contested states of systems in the militia conflict have little effect on economic stability and growth.
Inquiring individuals will just have to wait for the initiative to mature to see exactly the type of stability we wish to bring to the region.

Secrets? Fair enough. I'll continue to wait and watch and wonder, then. Although it should be noted that while Ishukone certainly profited from its flexible attitude regarding managing the trade in the Intaki system, and whilst that stance certainly proved to be FAR more productive than any approach that demanded the system be in the hands of the State, it's more difficult to see how this benefited stability within the contested zone.
Note that I am NOT one of these economic heretics who would claim that a profit for ones home corporation is not an end in and of itself. I would also argue that if the profits from the Intaki system have directly aided Ishukone with raising the capital to leverage its buyout of districts on the Homeworld then what has been good for Ishukone has been of direct benefit to every single citizen of the State - and that we do owe Ishukone no small measure of thanks and respect for its achievements in that arena.
That said - you have to expect combat pilots to be wary of anyone who ascribes lofty goals to an expansion of what is a lucrative market for those who service it. It should be added that market hub logistical routes are all heavily penetrated by false-flag trading companies that directly service the opposing militia, however, and so such expansion generally doesn't benefit one side more than the other. Hence my wariness.
That said, the respect I mentioned earlier has earned Ishukone a lot of leeway when it comes to trust. Let's see what Mama Ishy has dreamt up this time.
"You let one of them go, but that's nothing new is it? Every now and then a little victim is allowed to escape; because she smiled, because he's got freckles, because they begged. And that's how you live with yourself. That's how you slaughter millions."

As I enjoy projects that benefit the greater whole of the State & it's citizens, I do support what I-RED attempts to do in Black Rise, stabilizing it's economy & providing additional security where they can.
I've visited the trio of systems selected for this economic stimulus package, and was pleasantly surprised to see a healthy market targeting militia members.
After asking additional info from I-RED representatives & investigating deeper into the BRSI project and the possibly upcoming Free Trade Zone initiative, I decided on publishing a report, to spread the good news about this!

Ishukone-Raata has been conducting development projects since our foundation, often under the direction and policies employed by Ishukone. During the height of the Intaki development, we acted as an administrator in cooperation with groups like the Intaki Liberation Front. How did we bring stability? We installed infrastructure, lines of communication, we deployed assets and security personnel with allies to aid in combating the local pirate threat both planetside and in the trade-lanes. We expanded upon the same blueprint in Syndicate to a even greater success. We will adapt the same strategy to our BRSI efforts. It isn't perfect, it isn't easy but it is better then the alternative.. doing nothing.

Well, it certainly sounds promising - although I would mention that the three highsec trade hubs in that area have ALWAYS been Ichoriya, Onamon and Samanuni, so this hardly represents a dramatic shift in the economic foundations of the war in Black Rise.
In addition to this, as my better half pointed out, fighting from, let's say, Ichoriya as a jumping off point into the warzone proper is a definitely second-best way of prosecuting war patrols, as your points of ingress and egress are bottlenecks that are guarded heavily. You need a Forward Operating Base such as Enaluri before you can really conduct strikes without the kind of punitive losses my analysts are telling me that you've been suffering. Once again, I'm sure I'm not telling you anything that you haven't already worked out.
Given that the majority of Black Rise is languishing under Federation occupation, on second thoughts, perhaps stability shouldn't be our goal. Perhaps you guys ought to be the change we need to believe in.
