Secord Signs on With ARC as Hutori Celebrates Victory at FOMAT

Crowds went wild across Hutori as it was announced that Hutorian pop star Erica Secord had come out on top at Festival of Musical Arts of Terra, beating out 9 other international acts from across the world and securing Hutori as the next hosts of FOMAT in five years. Hutorian Prime Minister Andrew Wells personally congratulated Secord on her win, noting this was a great victory not just for the Commonwealth but for Hutorian cultural and music.

Secord herself has reportedly already agreed to sign on with the Kalistani based Artists Recording Collective, with plans to work with other independent Kalistani artists to crack into the music rich and hungry market. Secord's music is widely heard in Hutori, with her brand having picked up immensely since the end of the Macon War, with most Hutorian listening to her as a symbol of hope and love in the time of rebuilding that Macon is doing.

The Hutorian Ministry of Culture has already stated that three Hutorian cities were currently bidding to host the FOMAT in four and a half years time, with Acton, home of the largest Hutorian music festivals every where, St. Anslem and Carter City all throwing in bids.

Hutorian Firms Pouring Money into Davostan


Governor General's Compound in Kivonia

Field Marshal Mason Berrigan, the Hutorian Governor General and Plenipotentiary has stated that mass investments have been pouring into Hutorian occupied areas of Davostan with numerous firms having stepped up to fill gaps inside of the Davostani economy and rapidly getting it back up to snuff.

The Hutorian Sovereign Wealth Fund has stepped in with tens of Billions of Lira in direct investment in mainland infrastructure, rebuilding roads, government facilities, hospitals and schools, and coming in with loans to help local governments fight off the pinch. The Hutorian International Development Corporation meanwhile has focused on getting Davostani local firms back up and running, with short term loans and grants for small scale businesses to get local Davostani citizens back to work.

The Carter Energy Group, which prior to the Macon War had a de-facto monopoly over the Davostani mainland's power grid, has stepped in rapidly rebuilding the power grid, with focuses on power generation and transmission lines, rapidly getting the entire mainland power grid entirely back up. It is currently a point of pride for Carter Energy, and apparently privately to the Governor General, that the Hutorian occupied mainland, appears to be progressing in it's rebuilding efforts significantly faster then the Telamon occupied Bindeborg. The island of Dovmark, which is jointly occupied by Telamon, Dorvik and Hutori, the Commonwealth Occupation Commission appears to be giving their Dorvische allies a wide berth to rebuild it on their terms, while Hutori has mostly been left to rebuild the mainland.

Horizon Technology Corporation has been focusing on rebuilding the telecommunications infrastructure in Davostan, rebuilding it's internet and connectivity with the outside world, and expanding the already massive 5G and FibreOP network already existing in Hutori, to all of Davostan, giving them just as much inter-connectivity as their neighbors to the east enjoy.

Most importantly was the exclusive 5 year contract that the Commonwealth Occupation Commission signed with ODEN-K to provide Davostan with medical supplies and drugs. The Commonwealth Occupation Commission takes immediate custody of all medical goods coming in from Kalistan before disturbing them to the needed provincial and local hospitals and clinics as on an needed basis.

Field Marshal Berrigan has stated that Phase One of the Reconstruction is going as planned and if there is nothing to worry about, that moves to open the mainland to further international investment could occur, though was very firm in stating, "The Commonwealth will not allow Davostan to be preyed upon by vultures looking to come in here and make a quick buck. Only those firms we trust will be given Corporate Waivers, plain and simple."
