We want to make sure that visitors flying to the island have enough money to fly off the island. Last thing we need is the expense of supporting or flying these people off the island on our dime.

I'll assume we'll have a private charter service that exclusively operates to/from the island.

I propose that only round trip tickets (open ended) be sold. In the case where a person only buys a one-way ticket, he must escrow the funds needed to fly home before he is allowed to visit.

for the locations I mentioned, you can use small private planes to get people off and into land, cheap, quick, and inexpensive, and of course boats for cargo and anything related to weight and heavy things

i guess arab have a great mind by building this wonderful island

The Arabs contributed the money... so in a sense yes.. they have a great mind. But remember that the construction was carried out by the Dutch companies Jan De Nul and Van Oord. The workers were mostly from South Asia (India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Nepal). And right now most of the islands are under the possession of Russians and Americans.

Not entirely true, there are some areas where foreigner companies had to intervene in areas where the huge arab building holding (that owns many of the currents projects) lacks expertise, (not annyone has the technology or the mean to build an artificial Island that will harbor building, and that will response to a requirement book (being it technical, resistance to tidal forces, earthquakes...ect ect environmental one and most importantly in terms of cost, since if you have the expertise and the knowhow you are more efficient than someone who will start from zero) but many parts of the project, especially the traditional part, and also the design was worked out with those holdings, as for workers yes, they come from foreigner countries, which is normal for the region, with a very low population, I'll give an example, Qatar there is 2 million people, less than half of them are Arab and original citizens (40%) the rest are all from migration.

Right now they are building infrastructure everywhere, investing in everything and the original population is far from being enough and doesn't want to do low level basic stuff

Why would you want to live in a country created by someone who titles himself the emperor? A country with a police force, a country with an army, a country with greed and a closed mindedness to concepts of unity and love?

Sounds just like today's society.

Sounds like you want to join a collective or something! Why don't you do that?

Maybe if the island supported a free and family like society rather than another government hell hole.

I support this project, I nominate myself as head of treasury and wealth fund. I'm sure shareholders will vote accordingly

If you own the shares, then you can nominated yourself for the election. But it will depend on the shareholders on whether you are elected to that post or not. All the best! Grin

As long as we maintain vast wealth and a massive sovereign wealth fund we will be fine. If the island is poor then other countries will attack and we'll be executed overnight by SEAL team X

I wouldn't give that position to some random member.
Open a lot of great casinos and the island will be rich. Cheesy

We should make a pact with Putin and the island would be safe. Cheesy

Hmmm... don't know whether the Russian military is strong in that part of the Indian Ocean. But the problem is that Putin seems to be hostile to Bitcoins.

I am also worried about the Somali pirates. This region is within their operational range. But still, I hope to scare them off, as they are only armed with light weapons.

Mauritius being a population mainly compromised of Indians have an Military pact with India for defense, police and coast guard. So you'll be dealing with the Indian Army (one of the largest Military in the world) in the event of conflict / political drama.

And India does not recognize the Mauritian claims over the Saya de Malha bank. So that ends the question. Even if the Mauritian army is going to invade the island, the Indians are not going to support them in anyway.

Mauritius claims the Saya de Malha Bank as part of its Exclusive Economic Zone.

Won't this cause a problem?

None of the other nations recognize the claim of Mauritius over Saya de Malha bank . So I think there is no problem for us to construct the island there. Anyway Mauritius is a small country, with a population of about 1.2 million. I hope they will not cause too much problems. In case if they do, then we have our army to deal with the situation.

I've been to Mauritius, it's surprisingly very political and the population is very nationalistic.

Location wise though i think it's excellent, as it's located in a trade route between Africa and the east. So if a economic port zone is developed the community of this island can benefit from economic activity from the shipping industry.

There should be plenty of women offering sex services, you wanna make sure its not a sausage island.

ROFLMAO! Guys, let's get one thing straight here - if you go and establish a "Bitcoin" island, it will most definitely be a sausage party. It's going to look something like a LAN party from days of old. A ratio of 1 female per 10-20 males would be a generous estimate.

I might have missed this, but in case that you didn't post about it anywhere: is it going to be called 'The Bitcoin Island' or have you come up with some other name?

I am not the one to decide this. The shareholders would be voting on the name. There are a total of 5,000,000 shares, so 5 million votes. Any of the shareholders can suggest a name.

They probably have a small army that can't cause real problems.
