Grand Yarphese Plan

The Grand Yarphese Plan was a social and economic reform plan between 2004 and 2007 in the Grand Yarphese Republic. The plan was initiated in industrial Bangkok, and spread through Yarphei. Led by Tranh Chup-yar, its main motive was to convert the economy into an industrial and service-based modern society of communism, through the process of industrialization and collectivisation. The campaign was based on the Theory of Productive Forces.

During the mandatory practice of collectivization, lifestyle changed considerably. Unlike the Great Leap Forward, the plan was put into practice in cities as well as rural areas. Private farming or industry was outlawed, with anyone caught participating branded as counterrevolutionary. While the economy was harmed slightly, lifestyles changed completely. Under the pressure of violence, social opinion, and torture, it was necessary to comply with all orders. The result was catastrophe. Due to flooding during the 2006 Typhoon Season, several displacements in addition to famine led to the failure of the plan.
