Conference #12
"IP Facebook Committee" Conference on June 11th, 2017 The facebook chat audio/video call started at approximately 9:00 am PST (Pacific Standard Time, California USA) Call to order began around 9:10 am Roll call around 9:12 am. Approximately six participants were seen in group. Present at roll call were:
IP Senator Ali Akil Khalil [Human Rights] began the conversation before call to order talking about how he is stranded in Guinea Bissau, Africa, and how he requests help in the forms of emails or letters to the authorities. After roll call, he spoke first, and again gave more details about how his passport was taken from him and that he believes the Guinea Bissau Ambassador to Lebanon is responsible for his problems. He was reportedly in Guinea Bissau from his home country in Lebanon to accept a peace award for his work. As a side note, one our first nominees for MIP to the International Parliament, who is also currently the top-ranked name on the biggest category "Info. Not Avail." from the International Parliament's home page, is also from Guinea Bissau: His name is MIP Agostinho Antonio FONA [Info. Not Avail.] Guinea Bissau 1/29/2015. MIP FONA was nominated by a figure from Lebanon, our first Foreign Affairs Minister, Hassain Bou Said [Independent]. We will wait to hear from Senator Ali Akil Khalil [Human Rights], with regards to the person we should email and/or write, as he asks our help. Senator Ali Akil Khalil [Human Rights] has been there in Guinea Bissau for more than two months, his passport not returned by authorities. Author of these meeting's minutes, myself being Senate Chamber Speaker James Ogle [Republican], was next to speak. I announced the big write-in effort, for all members who wish to be elected to the First International Parliament, and how all write-in names need help with getting their names written in, because they have a much lower chance of winning a seat. The next conference call, Conference #13, will be held on Monday July 4th, so that all write-in names can come forward and work together. July 4th is our big day, the peak, the middle of summer, and the "First International Parliament Election of 2017" ends on August 5th, one month after July 4th. The general public will also be invited to the home office here in Pacific Grove, in order to get instructions live on being a write-in name. More announcements and more publicity is being generated to promote the July 4th event, and so press releases and videos, are being prepared now to that effect. The next speaker was IP Senator Mahmoud Haridy [Independent], who spoke briefly and favorably about our work at the International Parliament. Finally, IP Senator Dr. Anthony Fernandes [Republican] spoke, and started by asking some very good questions about the write-in campaign for the International Parliament. The questions and answers helped him understand about both the marking of eballot which are printed out and and paper ballots which are combined with the printed eballots into one stack. The conversation was recorded for possible use in future tutorials in voting. Senator James Ogle explained that in the case of both eballots and paper ballots, the teacher must practically hold the voters' hands when they vote, so they are sure to use consecutive numerals. Also, that placing number one at the top, then followed by consecutive numerals thereafter by copy and paste on email ballots (eballots), helps both the voter and vote counters, to double-check that no number was skipped, no numeral or name marked more than once and for saving time on web page work since all eballots are posted on the site for transparency. Honorable IP Senator Dr. Anthony Fernandes [Republican] next spoke extensively about global terrorism concerns and solutions. Many subjects were touched on in his five minutes including concerns regarding politicians' lack of willpower, lack of efficiency and lack of accountability, with regards to protecting the public from terrorism. He implied that voting reforms may help with corruption. He mentioned the issue with the large numbers of votes needed by politicians in elections and lack of accountability, as being a problem with regard to terrorism. He said that communication and awareness of the problems are among the solutions. Senator Fernandes and Ogle next conversed about the recent World Republican Party executive election, of whom he and I are two of the five. Three of five being outside of USA. The names are linked to the virtual World Republican Party board room:
And text version of the virtual World Republican Party board room:
Of the five World Republican Party executives, one is from United Kingdom, one from India and one Serbia. One of the five World Republican Party executives from United Kingdom has brought several new members from the Global Peace Party to the "Write-in Committee" and so the Global Peace Party has already seen votes for several of their members to elect them into the International Parliament. See the web page with the marked eballots to date here:
Next Honorable IP Senator Dr. Anthony Baptista Fernandes [Republican] spoke about the 36 states in India, how there are several small Republican Parties around India, most of them friendly towards the USA Republican Parties. Senator James Ogle also noted that there are several USA Republican Parties, the biggest of which, is led by USA President Donald Trump [Republican], whose Chief of Staff is Reince Priebus [Republican], who is also the current RNC (USA Republican National Committee) Chairman. The call ended here, approximately less than two hours after it had begun.

Report on Senate Chamber Conferences Conference #9
"IP Facebook Committee" Conference on May 14th, 2017 The call started at approximately 10:15 am because of problems initiating the call.
It may be that no other chat members clicked "join" the call, so Masharaf Chowdhury and James Ogle spoke, mostly about proposals for the new Media Communication Ministry which Hon Chowdhury had recently taken leadership as full Minister. While there seemed to be many technical problems with the call caused by learning the new Facebook audio/video system, Ogle and Chowdhury were able to get a lot done and to reach many agreements. During the conversation, we did see many speakers and Senators join the call for a few seconds to several minutes. There were approximately nine whose names entered the conversation, and with the exception of Senator Tersilio Benedetti [Parliamento Mondiale], few said much during the call. Media Communication Minister H.E. Mosharaf Chowdhury [Independent] went on to explain how he works with other groups. See his facebook page for a more complete and updated list: https://www.facebook.com/chowdhury.mosharafhossain He expressed an eagerness to help facilitate ad hoc committees which he will initiate, to produce qualify press releases, including audio/video new bulletins. And he was agreeable to have our highest authorities in the International Parliament to review and approve such press releases before they are to be published. Senate Speaker James Ogle noted that our primary new release system is with the Day-to-Day and Monthly Bulletins. And that as he is Media Communication Minister, that the Vote Counting Ministry and web site maintainers are happy to make updates on his Ministry's home page: http://international-parliament.org/i-m-c.html There were a few more test calls after Media Communication Minister was finished
speaking but no more substantial content.
More Notes on Technical Problems with Facebook audio/video call: 1) When a call is initiated, the initiator can click a red check by each group members name, and that will ring their telephone. 2) Because I did not understand that, I did not click every person's name, until about an hour after the call was initiated. That made us off-schedule. 3) The calls can be dropped by accident and then joined again, but all names must be clicked, in order to ring their bell to answer by clicking the word "JOIN" and in some cases "accept". 4) We did accomplish much, with Media Communication Minister HE Masharaf Chowdhury with many great ideas and agreements between Vote Counting Ministry and Media Communications Ministry. And his Ministry is electing 50 Directors, voting starts today, and ends in one week Saturday night at midnight (PST). So the call was a great success in helping us to work together on his Ministry elections. See the Media Communication Ministry home page here: http://international-parliament.org/i-m-c.html In one week of voting, we expect that many new Directors will be elected, and voting is open to all registered members of the International Parliament. In one week, his Ministry, will likely look very different as he is eager to elect fresh Directors there. 5) One Senator called in and had background noise. For future practice, speakers may want to try muting their microphone when they are not speaking, especially if/when they bring background noise to the group. 6) We will plan the next "IP Senate Chamber" facebook conference call, tentative in two weeks from today. If someone has suggestions for a time-change for the call, let us know, otherwise the 10 am PST works well in California USA. 7) There is a telephone conference call in six hours for anyone who has free time to phone in. Starchild has confirmed as one caller at the call at 7 pm (PST) California, USA. It is 12:09 pm here and the call is a 7 pm, so that is in seven hours. Here is the detailed info.: http://international-parliament.org/eballot-69-marked.html May 14th, 2017, "IP Telephone Committee" Call (831) 392-8337 PIN# 6829, 7 pm Pacific Standard Time (California) Another problem was that I was blocked by facebook for about 48 hours, had created a different "IP Senate Chamber" group, and then we had two groups and so many people (including me) got confused with having two groups. I did delete the second group and so you may have seen that one as I deleted all the names. This is the only "IP Senate Chamber" facebook group now. It is for facebook audio/video calls, and only for facebook. We are also delegating others to start more ad hoc committees, two of which are the "IP Skype Committees" (on facebook and Skype) and also "IP Telephone Committee". Another important issue, that only Google Chome and certain browsers work with facebook chat, so when we use Microsoft Edge for example, we have to switch to Chrome, during the call. For facebook audio/video chat. it doesn't seem like Microsoft Explorer or Microsft Edge brousers work at all with facebook audio/video chats.

Report on Senate Chamber Conferences Conference #6
1. Skype Conference #6 on February 18th featured two Senators who connected with two others and audience of 6 to 25.
1. Skype Conference #6 on February 18th featured two Senators who connected with two others and audience of 6 to 25. This was the first attempt at a Skype call for IP Senate Chamber Conference and happens on call #6, call #6 being split into two calls; Skype and Facebook. Honorable Skype Committee Chairman Michel Tia [NWP] Ivory Coasts planned, initiated and choreographed the Skype call whch included several guests including United Coalition of Candidates (UCC) guest Mark Herd [Libertarian], who is a very busy person lately, seeking Los Angeles City Council District seat #5 on March 7th, 2017, USA. Senators James Ogle and Michel Tia were present. Global Governance For A New Economic System Directors and Skype support programmer Director Michel Fally [RHDP] and Herve Tia [RHDP] also made appearances. Michel Fally [RHDP] as a technical support from Skype on cell phone and Herve Tia [RHDP] as a sort of elder spokesperson interested in the project. The call was recorded on Home Office side, but only Senator James Ogle, within the Home Office, was recorded from the 50-minute session since the technical support within the Home Office is non-existent. At the time of this writing it is unknown if more video was recorded from others outside the Home Office. The Home Office just installed internet and wifi for the first time in two years the day before the conference, so although many cameras, computers (both mac and PC) and programmers are co-hosting at the Home Office, there was no other attempts other than by James Ogle, attempts to collect audio and video material. Home Office does have six files of video recordings of James Ogle's side of the call, from the six Senate Chamber Conferences which have taken place. There was a small audience of 6 to 25 observers (estimate by this writer James Ogle) in Ivory Coast, from the office of Senator Tia, and their reactions to the speakers, largely approval and in French, was a colorful new deminsion. The meeting took a very serious turn as Senator Tia explained that his talents in language have helped him reach out to people of other countries in Western Africa, with regard to the new International Parliament. Senator Tia mentioned many initiatives by him to promote and build the new International Parliament. He also said that he speaks English, Spanish, German, Arabic and thus impressed the audience with his knowledge. James Ogle stressed that the pure proportional representation (PR) enables us in our goals and that the PR, while not well-understood because of the algebra, is the reason for our optimism and success. Michel Fally came on as a Skype call from his cell phone and offered assistance on issues with Skype to Michel Tia. Finally, Hon Director Herve Tia [RHDP], spoke about working and/or travelling to the USA and Hon Senator James Ogle [Republican] noted that the new International Parliament is like a small opposition political party in the USA, has no influence in the USA's State Department, international affairs or the US Embassy in Ivory Coast. At about 9:50 am PST, James Ogle began requesting that Senator Tia end the Skype call. Although no roll-call was made, it appeared that Mark Herd was present though to the end as his Skype Photo was on the screen and he did respond several times through the call. The call from Home Office ended when James Ogle clicked end, but there
was a few Skype calls that followed as tests.
The Facebook call was to start at 10 am PST with Mark Herd initiating the Facebook call. But Herd asked for next fill-in to call so call was delayed for 15 minutes for Senator LeSage to call. LeSage did not call, but did arrive later, at the Home Office while looking for his cell phone which he located in his automobile. James Ogle initiated the Facebook call at 10:30 am from Home Office and again had the session recorded. But no others could be recorded. Senator Pamela Elizondo [Green] USA and Senator Hassan Abdrabu [Independent] Palestine were on the call with Senator James Ogle for about ten minutes. They had some interesting exchanges and introductions. The call went dead from the Home Office after about ten minutes. Exhausted, James
Ogle did not call again but considered the day a success.
Report on Senate Chamber Conferences Conference #5
1. Conference #5 on February 4th featured about eight Senators who connected.
1. Conference #5 on February 4th featured about eight Senators who connected. Co-Speaker Rogers was scheduled to initiate the call, but
The call was initiated via facebook chat by James Ogle at approximately 9 am Pacific Western Time. Present for roll call were Honorable Senators Pamela Elizondo [Green], Ali Akil Khalil [Human Rights]. Honorable Senator Hassan Abdrabu [Independent] phoned in and appeared to be speaking Arabic with Ali Akil Khalil [Human Rights]. Later Honorable Senators Ivon Ramzi [Info. Not Avail.], Kwan Tera [One] and 2016 Honorable Alberto Gomez Fuertes [Independent] Spain 5/27/2015 were all registered on facebook as recipients of the facebook chat phone call. Agreement was made to use Skype for next conference call one week later, on Saturday February 11/2017, and two Senators said they can use Skype; Senator Michel Tia and uncertain; either Senator Adrabu or Senator Khalil. A second agreement was made between Senator Abdrabu and
Senator Ogle to help build Senator Adrabu's Higher Education
Ministry. The agreement is that once the Human Rights Ministry
reaches capacity of 50 Directors within two or three weeks,
then new signups are directed to Senator/Minister Abdrabu's
Higher Education Ministry.
In a first precedent, Co-Speaker/Senator Rogers could not make the conference call that he was to iniate and so Speaker/ James Ogle happily conducted the call on the fly. Skype Now we need to continue setting the trend and call on the
3rd back-up to initiate the call and several Senators are
interested in Skype. We invite other Senators to
initiate the next call. The Ten Execs will rank names.
Report on Senate Chamber Conferences Conference #1, #2, #3 and #4
1. Conference #1 on January 14th featured about eight Senators who connected.
1. Conference #1 on January 14th featured about eight Senators who connected. Conference #1 can be described as opening with choas, as several of the eight Senators spoke with no order. A roll call was taken by James Ogle which seemed to add order. An attempt for meeting's outline fashioned after All Party System Co.'s outline for meetings was made by James Ogle. Roll call established about seven participants, and an eighth joined after roll call. Some video was used but since James Ogle initiated the call on low quality touch-screen phone, video was not good and crashed the call. An audio recording of the call was successfully captured.
2. Conference #2 featured about four Senators who connected. Conference #2 was less-impressive, with fewer Senators participating. Good video and good audio was successfully captured.
3. Conference #3 featured about thirteen Senators who connected. The best and most productive call of the three featured approximately eleven Senators connected in some form. Senator/President Kwan Tera connected from the biginning and Senator/CEO Buck Rogers and Senator/Vice President James Ogle also remained connected for much of the call. James Ogle. initiator of the call, lost contact once or twice, but kept his preferences as audio only (not video) though the call when connected. CEO Buck Rogers explained technical information; that audio by the initiator (VP James Ogle) is better than video when using cell phone, but CEO Rogers also implied that when the initiator has better internet access then the quality of video call will improve. Before the meeting a "Chairperson and Co-Chairperson" were elected via facebook voting by the Ten Execs as outlines in guideline item #79: "__79__ EXECUTIVES: The Executives of the International
Parliament may select or approve persons to serve as Chairpersons, Legal
Counsels, and Secretaries for each committee and any other position
to help conduct the business.
Four of the Ten Executives voted for Chairpersons under guideline 79, James Ogle as Chairperson and Buck Rogers; James Ogle, Kwan Tera, Amb Abdelkader Boubekeur, Buck Rogers and James Ogle. Those votes were taken on a facebook chat list for the Ten Execs only. Elected were James Ogle Chairperson and Buck Rogers Co-Chairperson. 1,1,1,1 James Ogle (4 tics, sum of 4)
Senator Anthony Fernandes also expressed interest in chairperson and recieves a #3 tic from James Ogle. Conference #3 started with about featured about nine Senators connected and after ten minutes a "call to order" and "roll call" was attempted by James Ogle but several callers were coming in and out so not much success. Senator Michel Tia wrote in the chat group that he was having difficulties. He recieved notices but when he clicked he got immediately blocked. James Ogle announced an internet co-hosting agreement at the Home Office with Senaor James Le Sage which will result in internet access. Kwan Tera noted her first time to hear Buck Rogers speak. Joining during or at the end of the facebook conference phone call were; Senator Kwan Tera
Senator Bryant Hawkins left the conversation during the call. Joining the facebook chat immediately after the call were: Senator Jurgen Paul Otto
Total 13 Senators connected in some way or another.
4. Last half of call resulted in agreements between Senator Rogers and Senator Ogle --Human Rights Ministry
--Human Rights Ministry After many joined and then were knocked off, at the end of the meeting only Senators James Ogle and Buck Rogers remained, were able to chat and discuss a viriaty of subjects including; An agenda item to bring concrete action with Human Rights Ministry headed up by Human Rights Minister Suresh Verma [Global Union], Deputy Human Rights Minister Abdullah Suhail [Info. Not Avail.]. The Human Rights Ministry had been active with several new Directors elected and so a proposed connection between CEO Buck Rogers and Human Rights Ministry is a sign of further activity in Human Rights. --Proof of service for Senate Chamber Convention recieved positive comments James Ogle asked for feedback on "proof of service" as part of meetings and CEO Rogers reacted positively and so proof of service (notifying Senators of next meeting) seems welcomed. The lead-time for notification is currently two to seven days. --Inquiries about dues-payers and income answered CEO Rogers asked about dues-payers and income and James Ogle responded that the two latest Senators of the 37 are Michel Tia and James LeSage, each donating $60. The only other income in January 2017 is the $22.94 from recycling and $400. by James Ogle. The income and expenditures are being updated on the Treasury Ministry home page. To see the latest updates go to the Treasury Ministry home page, scroll to the bottom navigation bar and click "2017". The meeting was adjourned after no further comments from either
Senator Buck Rogers or James Ogle were explored and final
roll call; Senaors Buck Rogers and James Ogle.
5. URL for Senate Chamber Conference Call Guidelines
The location for guidelines for Senate Chamber Conferences is http://international-parliament.org/eballot-1-proposed.html under guideline items #70 through #82. --Only Chairperson or Co-Chairperson may call all-Senator meeting conferences
6. Conference #4 on January 22nd featured no Senators by Chairperson Ogle did intiate call Senator Tia called for a call, Senator Ogle called him several times and images
were recieved between both parties but no audio. Shortly afterwards on the hour,
Senator Ogle iniated a call in "IP Senators" facebook chat group bu no other
Senators answered the facebook conference phone call.
7. Final Analysis by Chairperson Ogle on Improving the Senate Chamber Conference Calls The most successful call, the 3rd call on the 21st, started with clear audio and continued for almost ten minutes. It appeared that when someone was called and invited video chat (not only audio, but video and audio), the call then shut down and a loud "schweeching" noise was reported by Co-Chairperson Rogers, and the call-initiator Ogle lost the call. When Senator/Chairperson Ogle tried to call out again, only a few Senators answered and conversation continued with those present. The final analysis is, "DO NOT USE VIDEO SHARE", on the calls, until more tests are completed. Tests need to be continued between individual Senators who
have time, so preparation for the Senate Chamber Conference
can be more successful.
