The '''Trade and Infrastructure Development Initiative (TIDI)''' is a global infrastructure development strategy adopted by the [[Zamastan]]ian government in 2019 and instituted fully in 2021 to invest in nearly 80 countries and international organizations. Proposed by [[President of Zamastan|President]] [[Anya Bishop]] in 2019, it was officiated into law by [[Congressional Hall (Zamastan)|Congressional Hall]] on September 9th, 2021. The project has a targeted completion date of 2051. Examples of TIDI's infrastructure investments include ports, skyscrapers, railroads, roads, airports, dams, and railroad tunnels.

The Trade and Infrastructure Development Initiative (TIDI) is a global infrastructure development strategy adopted by the Zamastanian government in 2019 and instituted fully in 2021 to invest in nearly 80 countries and international organizations. Proposed by President Anya Bishop in 2019, it was officiated into law by Congressional Hall on September 9th, 2021. The project has a targeted completion date of 2051. Examples of TIDI's infrastructure investments include ports, skyscrapers, railroads, roads, airports, dams, bridges. and tunnels.

The project has been labeled as a counter to the Yuaneze government's Global Economic Cooperation Initiative, which follows a similar model to the TIDI with wide ranging investment internationally. Some observers and skeptics, mainly from non-participant countries, including Yuan, interpret it as a plan for a Zamastan-centric international trade network.

Objectives

Background

The Trade and Infrastructure Development Initiative was first proposed by President Anya Bishop in March of 2019. During state visits to multiple countries, she touted the proposal as the "world's most ambitious economic plan". Congressional Hall debated the integral details of the proposal for over two years as it adapted through the stages of the Foley Sakzi and Atticus Moreau administrations. It was certified in a 323-28 vote on September 9th, 2021.

"The Trade and Infrastructure Development Initiative is going to bring the world closer together and boost the cooperation of the entire sphere of nations that come alongside it," President Atticus Moreau said during a joint press conference with Caspiaan Prime Minister Tullia Grönberg at the Zian Presidential Mansion following TIDI's signing on September 9th, 2021[1]. "The stated objectives are to construct a unified large market and to make full use of both international and domestic markets through cultural exchange and integration, to enhance mutual understanding and trust of member nations, resulting in an innovative pattern of capital inflows, talent pools, and technology databases."

The initial focus has been infrastructure investment, education, construction materials, railway and highway, automobile, real estate, power grid, and iron and steel. Already, some estimates list TIDI (once completed) will be one of the largest infrastructure and investment projects in history, covering more than 70 countries, including 55% of the world's population and 60% of the global gross domestic product if all goes according to plan. Development of the Zamastanian dollar (ziapet) as a currency of international transactions, development of the infrastructures of Euronian, Nortuan, and Adulan countries, strengthening diplomatic relations whilst reducing dependency on Yuan and creating new markets for Zamastanian products, exporting surplus industrial capacity, and integrating commodities-rich countries more closely into the Zamastanian economy are all objectives of the TIDI.

Furthermore, TIDI will address the expanding infrastructure needs in regions that are severely lacking in basic infrastructure, especially across Ausiana, Southern Adula, and interior Nortua, enhancing regional integration, promoting economic development and improving public access to social services. TIDI will also work to provide assessment and certification of infrastructure development projects worldwide on measures of financial transparency, environmental sustainability, and impact on economic development, with the goal of mobilizing private capital to invest abroad.

Much of TIDI's success hinges on the international relations of Zamastan. As the Coalition of Crown Albatross's most diplomatically-connected nation, Zamastan's connectivity is not of concern, rather the contest of influence from other major regional players like Yuan, Drambenburg, and Timeria resulted in the Zamastanian State Department conducting frequent touting-campaigns for promoting TIDI between 2019 and 2021.
