Chapter 1187: Breaking the Blocked Ocean Road

Muyang is following up on the restart of three major projects recently.

There are three projects: "China-Myanmar Kunming to Kyaukpyu Railway", "Missong Hydropower Station" and "Leibitang Copper Mine".

In fact, China has many investment projects in Myanmar, and these three projects are by no means the largest ones, but these three projects have different meanings because these are all projects that China invested in Myanmar and failed in the end.

The reasons here are very complicated. Some of the people in Myanmar oppose it, some of the reasons for the former Myanmar President Wu Minhui, some of the reasons for local warlords, and some of the reasons for Japan's use of diplomatic means to destroy it. China has invested a lot of money in these three signed projects, but was unilaterally broken by the Myanmar government and announced it was shelved.

After Mu Yang Fu served as ambassador, Wu Minhui was removed, Mokang came to power, and gradually restored China's investment in Myanmar, he paid attention to these three projects.

Perhaps, there is another reason for not accepting failure.

Anyway, I looked at the projects that have invested a lot of manpower, material resources and energy, but I was stopped when I was stopped. Moreover, it was a small country, Myanmar, and I felt like I was bullied and it was difficult to relax.

Since I can get it back now, why keep this knot?

Therefore, Muyang is also very concerned about promoting these three projects.

When he was with Saimo Kanti, Saimo Kanti stated that the performance, fulfillment of international contracts signed by the former government and the results of handling disputed projects will greatly affect the future international credibility of Myanmar countries.

How important international credit is to a country's future economic development? These politicians know best that if everyone is very worried about their investment, then who dares to invest in Myanmar?

Last time, during his visit to Myanmar, Minister Yang also talked about this matter with Sai Mokang and other senior government officials in Myanmar, calling the shelving of the project a "growth trouble" in bilateral cooperation. "The two sides should actively and properly handle it and be confident in the future of mutually beneficial cooperation between China and Myanmar."

However, when Muyang met with other Myanmar officials, what he said was, "For other international investors, the results of China's three investment projects will also affect the trust of international capital in the Myanmar government."

After the new Myanmar government came to power in early March, it will face a series of economic challenges, and all of them need to handle the delicate relationship with China. After all, China was Myanmar's largest trading partner and source of foreign direct investment.

These three projects actually involve a plan in Mu Yang's mind.

Among his bank projects, the power company project is the power company project. Myanmar is now extremely short of electricity, and existing power plants can only meet 40% of Myanmar's electricity demand. Moreover, with the development of Myanmar, the demand for electricity will become increasingly greater.

This is a golden basin, which can be expected to make money, but if you want to make money, it is important to have electricity, so it is imperative to build a hydropower station. Myanmar has extremely rich hydropower resources. According to analysis, Myanmar has now used hydropower resources less than 5%, and it can even be said that it has basically not developed much. Later, there are extremely rich resources waiting to be developed.

The same is true for the power market. There are still a large number of rural areas in Myanmar that do not have electricity.

The "China-Myanmar-Kunming-Kyaukpyu Railway" among the three major projects is what Mu Yang attaches most importance to, perhaps because it is related to the plan he envisions.

Mu Yang's plan is to skip the so-called blockade and open up China's exit to the Indian Ocean.

The "China-Myanmar Kunming-Kyaukpyu Railway" can give China a smooth channel directly from the inland to Myanmar.

Myanmar is very important to China. Its geographical location is directly inserted into the Indian Ocean. It can be said that it is China's natural sea outlet on the Indian Ocean. Moreover, Myanmar's coastline is very long.

More importantly, the United States does not have much influence here, so it is very conducive to China's direct access to the Indian Ocean by using Myanmar as a springboard. Once it has enough control in the Indian Ocean, China's control over Africa will be greatly strengthened.

For long-term development, African resources will be very, very important, and African markets will be very, very important to China. Therefore, in a strategic sense, Myanmar is a wing of China extending to South Asia and Africa. In addition, the resources of the Indian Ocean and Myanmar resources can be effectively utilized by China's economic development.

Although what Mu Yang said to Ma Xiaobo at the beach seemed like a fantasy to Ma Xiaobo, this was indeed Mu Yang's ambition, and he wanted to build Myanmar into a back garden in China.

Mu Yang had this plan in his mind before coming to Myanmar, and since he took office, he has been paving the way for this plan.

That is why he worked so hard to control the regime, invested a lot of money to develop Myanmar and improve development projects.

What Mu Yang is doing now is to promote the implementation of the three major projects as soon as possible, hoping to determine these projects before Sai Maokang visits China.

Yes, Sai Maokang has accepted the invitation of China's No. 1 chief and decided to visit China for a four-day period from September 8 to 12.

It is early August, and there is still one month left. Mu Yang hopes that these projects can be finalized before Sai Maokang visits China. In this way, during his visit to China, he can even sign contracts and restart projects.

Mu Yang was looking at the documents, and the door was knocked.

Ma Xiaobo walked in and handed a fax to Mu Yang, "Ambuyer, the fax message just sent from China, US President Tripp decided to visit four Asian countries, including Japan, South Korea, Malaysia and Myanmar."

Mu Yang took the fax and read it carefully.

"Treep is preparing to visit Myanmar, and the time is set on August 22. Before President Sai Maokang visits China, hehe, it seems that he intends to do so, and the United States can't sit still."

"If I remember correctly, he should be the first US president to visit Myanmar." Mu Yang looked up at Ma Xiaobo.

"Yes Ambassador."

Muyang has read the sign and returned the fax to Ma Xiaobo. He said to Ma Xiaobo: "You contact the Myanmar government, ask about Tripp's specific itinerary, and the officials who will meet Myanmar. Let me know after you know it."

"Okay ambassador."

Ma Xiaobo left the office, Mu Yang put the signature pen into the pen holder, tapped his fingers on the desktop, and began to think about the issue of the US president's visit to Myanmar in his mind.

Myanmar has just announced Sai Maokang's visit to China a month later, and the White House announced that Trip's visit to four Asian countries this month. The time is actually quite hasty. With less than a month of preparation, Mu Yang wonders if the trip to Myanmar will be added temporarily.
