1 | Irek Bassem (1923-1985) |
22 December 1976 | 18 May 1985 | 3069 | DL | 1976, 1981 | |
Irek Bassem was elected the first Executive Secretary of the Tichvaist Union to hold the office following the Constitutional Reforms of earlier that year. While early in his tenure, his reputation as a stalwart reformer and anti-corruption leader was tarnished by popular beliefs among conservatives that he wanted to use the office to advance his own meteoric political career. Bassem was the main proponent of the "Bezneñ-šartlar" policy which significantly eased restrictions on how business operated within Girbeta's borders, and laid the groundwork for the country's "workers' economy" which sought to act as an alternative to both Western capitalism and the Command Economies of the Eastern Bloc. While his second term in office was controversial at the time, he was reelected by a landslide to continue carrying out his policies of reform. Died in office from a previously-undetected brain cancer in 1985. | |||||||
2 | Luis Basie (1942-) |
27 May 1985 | 21 December 1991 | 2399 | DL | 1986 | |
Having served as Irek Bassem's Vice-Secretary during his second term, Basie was appointed his provisional successor in 1985 following his death. Running on a platform of international cooperation in 1986 as an extension of Bezneñ-šartlar, Basie worked to encourage foreign investment in Girbeta and worked to make the country a leader in the field of the growing field of environmental policy, establishing numerous government programs for climate and ecology research, including the then-controversial Mount Kannan Research Station and Observatory. |
