[STF] Sirus Trading Federation
Who are we and what are we about??
We are a trading coalition that has banned together because of the increasing pirating through out Sirus.
We also are upset about being hampered by Britonia and Liberty with the Embargo's in place. We have sought refuge in Convoys and Escorts. We are paying well when we ask for escorts.We will trade where others fear so therefore we are Quasi-legal group.

Philosophy and policies
1. We are a capitalistic faction. We believe in upholding all forms of free trade whether it be lawful or unlawful.
2. We put our interest ahead of all others including the Zoner Council. By doing this it will cause friction/tension with other factions. Ex.. We believe in free trade it does not matter if we "muscle" in on other factions territory, even if it does affect their bottom line.
3. The rights and the defense of all Zoners(ID and IFF). We believe in the rights of all Zoners before other factions and always come to there defense despite any differences we may have with our fellow Zoners. It does not matter if we know or not if the Zoner we are defending is right or wrong.
4. We believe in diplomacy only when it is to our advantage. Meaning if we are outnumbered or do not want to start a fight even if we have the advantage.
5. We do not want to get drawn into war or wars between other factions, but will intervene when other Zoners are caught in the middle. Such as the blockade of the Freeport in Tau 31. We will continue to deliver supplies even if it means breaking someones law. We will not adhere to the Bretonia or Kusari laws that will not allow us to travel through the Taus or anywhere else to deliver the supplies.

SO I ran into [KNF] Jun.Sato who advised of License to carry Plutonium and other restricted goods. We then filed an application with him and paid the fees. So for all to know that the STF has the required License in Kusari Space.
Further, I have yet to see your official application to KNF High Command.
24 hours to provide verification, or I will lodge a formal complaint on your "smuggling" to both KNF High Command and the Council of Zoners.
We may share a philosophy, but when you hurt our bottom line, we won't stand idly by.
Cheers,

E-Prime, for the TAZ

We have no intent on changing your bottom line. Your contracts are with others. Not Samura... is that not correct? then you will not have your bottom line changed. ALso please check with Jun.Sato --honable KNF. (Screetshots avail) He will vouch for this transaction. As he took the Fee and filed the Application.

Samura has nothing to do with issuing Export Licenses, mate. That would be KNF High Command.
Yes.. i'd most definitely appreciate screenies, as I don't know this "Jun.Sato" from a hole in the ground.
(other than seeing him flit through Kusari in a lvl 51 starflea with civvy ID.. dunno what's become of KNF... for all I know, he's a bleeding imposter who pocketed your money...)

I wish it to be know that we have two contracts open and approved.
One is with Samura, along with License from KNF to transport in Deut and out Plut.
they other is with Daumann to carry out Niobium and bring in Diamonds.
However we also are in negotiations of other contracts that I will later mention.

OORP -- we also need to colect 500mil for the Faction approval process.
I am requesting all traders within the company to donate atleast 20 mil. those in Advance Trains need to donate a bit more please. Core members should donate as much as 100 mil. I know I will.
further instructions later for deposit location.

...Subject: Restricted export licenses
Konnichiwa Mr. Gorva,
I am contacting you to clear any doubts on licensing process regarding restricted export to the Taus.
In first place you may want to see the Kusari Legal Codex, where it is described the process that have to be followed in order to obtain any type of Kusari licenses,
along with current laws and regulations.
Unfortunately, it appears your STF convoy run into some new KNF recruits that wasn't prepared yet to handle a situation like this and made an understandable mistake
in good faith, improvising.
Let me make clear that no Kusari license can be obtained by an encounter in space with any Kusari representative of sort, except very few cases.
A formal request have to reach the KNF High Command where it will be taken into consideration, discussed and eventually approved or denied.
Our offices are willing to consider those 30 millions of credits received as an advance payment for the money deposit needed for an eventual export group license request that may reach the KNF High Command in a near future, or, credits can be sent back to you if such is your will.
Everything looks good. I just have a few suggestions to make.
I think that there should be a daily tax/fee to help pay STF expenses. This money must be paid to the bank of STF.
ADV Train (4000 - 5000 holds) = 20 mil daily
Firefly (2700 - 3999 holds) = 15 mil daily
Percheron (below 2700 holds) = 10 mil daily
Cap Ships = 3 mil daily
Gunboat or lower 1.5 mil daily
This is to be paid daily to [STF]Galactic_Bank whether you log in or not. This ensures that the fees are paid and we can track if someone has been on working for STF. The amount can be paid at anytime but prior to logging off. If you are working daily you pay daily. However, if you have been off for 3 days, you still owe the 60 mil in tax revenue. I understand not everyone will work for STF daily, but it will show who is paying their dues in helping build our faction. After the tax/fee is paid the money a member makes above that is their own and they are free to do with it as they choose.
As the CFO of STF, I will track who is paying and who is not. Will keep a running total for each member. The bank money is used for STF expenses only unless otherwise directed by the core members.

While I do agree a need for Our members to help us... I do not believe in a daily Tax... especially of the escorts.... We pay the escorts to guard us and also help pay for upgrades and new loadouts...
We therefore can not ask them to do more unless they wish.
Now as for having out Transports and traders helping to fund things such as the Offical cost or the KNF fees for transporting Plut throw there space.
So to that extent I request as we get fees that come up we ask for what people can spare...
In the case of upgrading vessels of those wishing upgrades or different ship . we ask the other so also contribute.
We will be upgrading based on post here and activity on your character within the STF.
We request all members donate to the [STF]Galactic_Bank as much as they can a few tips are as follows
ADV Train (4000 - 5000 holds) = 20-50 mil weekly
Transport (2700 - 3999 holds) = 10-20 mil weekly
Percheron (below 2700 holds) = 5-10 mil weekly
also please mention here when you post --what ship your in and What ship you would like ot be in eventually as this will help us plan.
