So, for this roll, does it mean we are taken seriously in a good or bad way?[X] Roll a d100 for your UN Diplomat.
Question, Higher is good or bad?

I imagine it is similar to Chinese/Japanese evening entertainment. Bars, theaters, dance halls, etc.
Just, you know, a lot more gay and casual about flings. Drag shows, cabarets, theaters with riskier costumes, cultural festivals with a shitton of colors, etc.

Germany will in about two years, Scandinavian Countries might in ~5-10, the rest of the world would vary on their current political block. America would imprison the couple for treason until the ~1990's.

Just going to add a few plan ideas while I'm feeling inspired - feel free to steal these as write-ins.
Light Industry
-[] Build A Monument Within The Capital
--[] Permaculture Gardens - Mixed use agricultural/recreational spaces that yield both local produce for the city's population as well as pleasant spaces to relax and take in nature.
[ ] GM's Pick - There's a ton of great projects for raising QoL in a small poor nation on Appropedia.
Agri-, and Aquaculture
[ ] Solar Dehydrator Plant - Solar powered food dehydrators are simple and cheap to construct and preserve more nutrients than canning due to the low temperature drying process.
Social
[ ] Durable Goods Libraries - A good way of improving quality of life without needing to produce too many consumer goods is to implement a program where people can borrow more infrequently used goods from a central storehouse - things like vacuum cleaners, specialized cookware, hand tools, etc.
[ ] Public Radio/Televisions - Add TVs/Radios to certain public venues where people can get entertained and informed in a social setting. Once again, lets you have some access to these sorts of luxury goods without needing to make a lot of radios and TVs.
[ ] (Gay) Immigration Propaganda - Guanghou LACKS engineers and sceintists, and accountants, and doctors, and other highly educated workers needed to fulfill the Great leader's ambtious plans. Guangchou HAS more Gay Liberation than you can shake a stick at. It's very possible that you'll be able to attract quite a few learned professionals fleeing persecution in their home countries.[1]
[1] Imagine the CIA trying to a) have agents pretend that hey're queer in order to get in, or b) try to recruit from a population they've been persecuting since... ever. Big exploding cigar vibes there.

I'm assuming that this means that Japan is working on making real life catgirls with help from their previous connections to Nazi Germany? My goodness, with this and the future obsession with mechs, Japan is really going into full on anime territory.
[X] send a message asking for the Americans to please come pick up their boat.
-[X] The nation's littering laws are currently not suitable for the situation at hand. Pass a new law to allow for a suitable littering fine.
-[X] get a field hospital and field kitchen going to help the American sailors, issue orders to our people they they are NOT prisoners but dont let let them wander off.
-[X] Talk to the embassies of the US and China while getting ahead of the media so that our story is the one that hits the news first. Both to make sure that there will be no problems with the Chinese government, and to get ahead of the capitalist propaganda sure to try to paint Guangcho in the worst light possible.
-[X] set up an impromptu immigrations and customs post in case any sailors do want to leave and go into town or something.
-[X] Extend a line of credit to the sailors for the duration of their stay. Bill their government the difference afterwards.

Hmmmm, while a combat mech is appropriate for maintaining the Best Korea vibes, I think the next one we make should be a three meter engineering model. I want a civilian model that will let us do heavy construction in rough terrain and underwater in order to aid our development efforts and to establish a civilian mech infrastructure which wil make it cheaper to maintain the military ones and give up a broater talent pool to recruit drivers from.

Well, the first step is to be so worried about what will/could happen and how the characters will interact, that you go beyond stressed, beyond hysteria, into the grey misty indifference of a complete shutdown of all but the emergency services in your brain.
The second is to realize that you are a deity of creation, upon whose fingertips hangs nothing less than an entire universe of potential, moldable like clay to your wishes and whims.
The third is to say: "Fuck it!" and write. Because when you say that, nothing will hold you ever down, as failure is expected, but legend is demanded.

The history books are going to be hilarious about this incident and will only get crazier as things get declassified.
Complete with genuine Tropico dice!
Japan : Extremely eccentric Asian Island nation with a fixation for Mecha, an old history of awesome swords, a historical taste for androgyny and hastily hidden ties to the Nazis? That's it, I'm calling my lawyers.
This quest definitely isn't what I expected it to be, but damn it's a gem.

More like the US and USSR are having a dick measuring contest about who gets to Mars first while Guangchou is spinning up an orbital ZBLAN fabrication station to gain first mover advantage on fiber-optic internet.
