King-elect Frogangel promises to reboot Silvervale economy

The scene, yesterday

King-elect Snowwood Frogangel vowed on Monday to get Hydramire's stalled economy moving again but refrained from laying out specific measures until he gets to know the "real" state of the land's accounts. The day after winning the royal run-off vote, the center-right leader was more incisive on other matters: He called on the Roperain Bank's top tier to step aside and said he wanted Durkswamp suspended from the Shortvale trading bloc for human rights abuses. The pro-business Frogangel campaigned on promises of sweeping economic reforms to tackle weak growth, high inflation and a yawning fiscal deficit after more than a decade of free-spending leftist populism.
