"It is really quite amazing, Mr. Coen, the policy we are currently refining is in essence what you have just said. It had become obvious that we Freeport Administrators lack the ability to enforce the old NFZ policies. And after some thought, we came to the conclusion that we should cease trying to mediate where we are not wanted. I don't know about the other Freeports, but I know that Freeport Nine lacks the means to interdict the numerous disputes between the local factions effectively. Best to just protect what ours, rather than try to dictate to those that hold little to no respect for our ways."
Silvan leaned forward
"So in essence, Mr. Coen, you wish me to convince other Zoner station admins to adopt a similar approach? Look after our own and to hell with the rest?"
