Chapter 1120: Mu Yang takes office as the new ambassador of Myanmar
The three special forces soldiers brought by Mu Yang got out of the car. Two guards were in front of the car. One of them stepped forward to take the major officer to Mu Yang's car. Mu Yang got out of the car. The major saluted Mu Yang.
"Ambassador Muyang, I am ordered to welcome you to Mandalay." said the major.
Mu Yang politely reached out and shook the other party, "Is it the order of President Wu Minhui?"
"Yes, Mr. Ambassador," replied the Major.
"Okay, you can lead the way."
"Do you want to change the car? Armored vehicles will be safer." The major asked kindly for Mu Yang's safety.
Mu Yang looked at the old-fashioned wheeled Soviet armored vehicle. The patent leather on the body had fallen, and many places were bumpy. Mu Yang thought to himself that if he didn't even squat his butt with a broken armored vehicle, he wouldn't be willing to suffer that crime.
"I'll take my own car, you can lead the way." Mu Yang said.
The convoy set out again and passed through the checkpoint. Mu Yang also saw a large number of soldiers, tents, weapons, and even cannons behind the unearthed fortification. This was the rhythm of readying for war at any time.
This time, another armored vehicle was added in front of me, and black smoke was emitting rushing along the way, with a speed of only about 60 miles, which was even slower. It took me more than an hour to enter the city of Mandalay.
Mandalay is the second largest city in Myanmar. Several ancient dynasties built their capitals here and were also a city where Chinese and overseas Chinese gathered in large numbers. Mandalay area is listed as a world cultural heritage site, and you can see many historical sites, many involving Myanmar temples and palace photos are from Mandalay. The Irrawaddy River flows through the west side of the city, and the city streets are horizontal and vertical, with numbers as the street names.
Mandalay is a Buddhist holy land, and believes in Hinayana Buddhism. The stupa and stele forests can be seen everywhere. They are magnificent, solemn and solemn. You can see monks walking by in Tibetan red monk robes at any time on the streets.
Muyang looked at the street scenes on both sides, with many shops and pedestrians, and the people's living conditions were quite normal.
Mu Yang said: "Now it seems that Mandalay is more lively than Naypyid."
At this time, Ma Xiaobo said: "I have been to Mandalay several times before. It was much more prosperous than it is now. It is a tourist city and receives up to 600,000 tourists from all over the world every year. It is also one of Mandalay's important sources of income."
"Ammin, you can see that those better houses and shops belong to Chinese. Chinese are smart, hardworking and business-minded, and they can easily surpass locals in business. Mandalay has a prosperous business activity, and the central commercial block is '80 streets'. Almost all the shops on the street are run by Chinese, but they can't be seen from the outside."
"Myanmar people are optimistic and lazy in nature. They are completely drunk. Donglin told me," Ma Xiaobo pointed to the driver who drove for Muyang and the others and continued, "his neighbor is a taxi driver. After his son got married, he stopped going to work. He had to spend all the money before going to work."
The Chinese driver who drove for Muyang and the others was named Wang Donglin, and the local name of Myanmar was Bihuam. He lived in Naypyidaw. He came to Myanmar since his grandfather's generation.
There are many people with Chinese ancestry in Myanmar. Mu Yang also knows that even among the senior officials in Myanmar, there are many of them of Chinese ancestry. However, they don’t usually tell the public, but there is still this part of the information in the internal information of the country.
Now the Vice President of Myanmar, Sai Mokang, whose father is Chinese and his mother is a Burmese. However, in order to avoid suspicion, Sai Mokang's identity information is registered with the Burmese.
The armored vehicles took Muyang's convoy through the city and soon arrived at a building. This was originally the location of the Mandalay Municipal Government, but now it has been occupied and changed to a temporary national government office.
At the gate, the convoy stopped, and the government gate was also heavily guarded. The major got off the armored vehicle and walked to the Muyang convoy. "Mr. Ambassador, you and your secretary can go in, but your guard can only wait outside."
"Yes." Mu Yang replied. He was going to see Wu Minhui. He could not bring three soldiers with weapons to the side. Then Mu Yang ordered the three of them in Chinese, "Find a place to rest and wait for me to come back."
The major officer sent someone to take another car to drive in the other direction. Mu Yang followed the major into the government office building. At the door, two more guys in suits searched Mu Yang and Ma Xiaobo. They confirmed that they had no weapons, so they took them upstairs again.
Mu Yang thought to himself, he was really careful, it seemed that he was afraid, and he had a bit of a slight scent of a snake.
In a spacious office, Muyang met the current Myanmar President Wu Minhui. Wu Minhui is 65 years old, with slightly sparse hair, about 1.7 meters tall, with a pair of frameless glasses on his round face, and he looked a bit bookish. It was impossible to tell that President Wu Minhui was also a soldier.
Wu Minhui was born on May 11, 1951 and graduated from the Myanmar Military Academy. He was appointed commander of the Triangle Military Region in April 1999, and was appointed deputy commander of the Army of the Ministry of National Defense and chief of staff in December 2001. He began to work in politics in August 2006 and served as secretary-general of the "Myanmar Federation National Peace and Development Commission" and was elected President of Myanmar in February 2013.
Therefore, Wu Minhui has a very deep military background. The state of Burmese military in power has lasted for decades. Later, after a long period of hard work, democratic elections were finally achieved, but the last ones were elected were still soldiers. I have to say that the result was speechless. The world finally spoke based on strength.
The subsequent meeting was basically a diplomatic routine. Mu Yang submitted a letter of nationality to Wu Minhui. President Wu Minhui welcomed Mu Yang to take up his new position, expressing good neighborliness and friendship between China and Myanmar. Myanmar attaches great importance to developing relations with China. Under the personal concern of the leaders of the two countries, cooperation between Myanmar and China has been further developed in various fields.
At the same time, Wu Minhui thanked China for its humanitarian assistance to Myanmar, which is of great significance to alleviating the suffering suffered by the Myanmar people. Wu Minhui praised China's contributions to safeguarding Myanmar sovereignty, independence, territorial integrity, peace and stability, and hopes that China will better play the role of a major power on the Myanmar issue.
The traditional friendship between Myanmar and China has a long history. For a long time, the Chinese government and people have given firm support and assistance to the development of Myanmar's national development, and Myanmar is deeply grateful. Since the establishment of the new Myanmar government, the relationship between the two countries has been elevated to a comprehensive strategic cooperative partnership, and mutually beneficial cooperation in various fields has been further carried out. Myanmar is willing to continue to develop a friendly and friendly relationship with China and Myanmar.
Wu Minhui also reiterated that Myanmar firmly supports China's core interests and firmly adheres to the one-China policy, which will not change.
Mu Yang said, "I am very honored to be the 17th special ambassador to Myanmar. China and Myanmar are friendly neighbors with deep friendship with "Pubo". We are willing to work with Myanmar to enhance strategic mutual trust in accordance with the requirements of the comprehensive strategic cooperative partnership, strengthen mutually beneficial cooperation between the two countries in various fields such as politics, economy, trade, and military, enhance cultural exchanges and civil exchanges between the two countries, and further consolidate the civil foundation of bilateral relations."
Mu Yang finally stated that during his term, he will do his best to contribute to consolidating China-Myanmar friendly relations and deepening mutually beneficial cooperation.
