Chapter 612: The Kra Canal Project Failed
Once the Kra Canal plan can be realized, the benefits to our country will be obvious!
The Kra Canal leads directly to the South China Sea and can bypass the Strait of Malacca.
Once the canal is opened, ships can pass through the Gulf of Thailand from the South China Sea and then through the canal into the Andaman Sea and out of the Indian Ocean without going through the Strait of Malacca, shortening the voyage by at least 1,100 kilometers, saving 2-5 days of sailing time, and large tankers are expected to save about £180,000 per voyage.
This is not only the economic benefits, but also the political and strategic benefits, let's not talk about it!
However, once the Kra Canal is completed, the economic income for Malaysia and Singapore will be greatly reduced, and the international status will also be reduced!
So, it's very controversial right now!
Japan, South Korea are naturally in favor!
And in our country, because we have to consider Singapore's attitude, the leaders have not expressed their position!"
"Will the state oppose the participation of enterprises and individuals in the Kra Canal Project?"
"This, you Hua Yu is a state-owned enterprise, Hua Yu's participation represents the country's participation, do you say the country will oppose it?
So don't think about it!
As for personal participation in the Kra Canal Project, I suggest that you don't participate!
Is there a lack of funds internationally?
There is no shortage!
Is there a lack of financially minded and discerning investors?
There is no shortage either!
But why is there a lack of interest?
Even Japan and South Korea, which have benefited, have they taken concrete actions despite shouting support?
No!" Wang Wenshuai explained to Yu Qingyang with self-questioning.
"Why? Kra Canal plan, I took a look at the relevant reports, and also checked the information, once the Kra Canal is repaired, the investment income is very considerable!"
"It's not an economic issue, it's not a question of a big return on investment!
It's a question of Thailand's political form!"
"What's wrong with the political form?" Yu Qingyang wondered.
"The highway from Bangkok International Airport to the city has not been fully repaired for 10 years, and 80% of its funds are missing.
It can be seen how serious the level of corruption in the country is!
Once the Kra Canal project is invested, will it repeat the mistakes of the Airport Expressway?
The construction period has been delayed indefinitely due to corruption in Thailand?
If so, how high is the rate of return more than enough to cover the losses?
To put it bluntly, Thailand's national credibility is not high, and investors lack investment confidence!" Wang Wenshuai analyzed Yu Qingyang from a professional point of view.
"Understood!" Yu Qingyang nodded.
"In fact, the most important problem is that our country has not expressed its position!
If our country takes a stand and takes the lead in carrying out the Kra Canal project, then the previous problems will no longer be a problem!" Speaking of this, Wang Wenshuai's face was full of confidence and pride.
When Yu Qingyang heard this, he was also full of blood and was proud of his country.
The Kra Canal project, which seems extremely difficult in Thailand, is actually not a problem at all in China's view, the question is whether I want to participate in it or not.
The Kra Canal plan cannot be implemented for the time being, Yu Qingyang is not frustrated at all, and it is not that he cannot participate at all, but the country has not yet made up its mind whether to participate in the Kra Canal plan.
What Yu Qingyang has to do now is to work hard to develop and strive to make the company one of the largest multinational companies in the country.
When the country begins to take the lead in the Kra Canal project, it will naturally be able to participate.

"This is our environmental protection high-tech industrial park, which is mainly an industry in the application of new energy!
At present, the main project is the development and production of electric bicycles and electric vehicles!", the staff of the Administration Department told the Mozambican representative about the industrial park.
"At present, the output value of the environmental protection high-tech industrial park is 2.6 billion yuan a year!
It is expected that in the next three years, the annual output value will exceed 10 billion!"
"The annual output value is 10 billion US dollars, Chinese yuan?" asked Stefano Morrone as he raised his hand.
"RMB!"
"It's amazing! Your company can reach more than a billion dollars a year!" said Matteo Messna Tinaro.
The output value of more than one billion US dollars will exceed one billion US dollars in three years, and after three years, the national GDP of their country does not know whether it will be able to exceed 10 billion US dollars.
How can one not be surprised that the output value of a company reaches one-tenth of their national GDP.
"Matteo Messna Tinaro, the Eco-Tech Industrial Park is just one of our Group's subsidiaries!
It's in the top 10 of the group!", the administration staff proudly emphasized.
"Oh! buy it!" the Mozambican delegate exclaimed again as the interpreter explained.
"Next door is the vocational and technical college to which our group belongs!
At present, there are more than 12,000 students in the school!" said the staff of the Administration Department, pointing to the Water Conservancy Vocational and Technical College not far away.
"Your company has its own school?"
"Yes! Our company has more than one school! There is also a comprehensive technical college with a bachelor's degree in Modu!"
Then the staff of the administration department took them to the school for a tour.
"Are they building cars? Your school is making cars?"
"This is the school's internship workshop for students to do internships here!
There are ten such practice workshops!
The workshop where we are now is an excavator assembly workshop!
The students process the excavator parts in other workshops and assemble them here!"
"It's amazing! Your company is amazing!" said the two Mozambican delegates, feeling that their brains were not enough.
In school, I was assembling excavators, and it was just an internship.
"There are also forklift assembly workshops, bulldozer assembly workshops, and truck assembly workshops next to it! Let's take a look!" The staff of the administration department was afraid that the two guests would not be surprised enough, and then introduced.
"Oh, buy it!" the two Mozambican delegates, who had not broken their mouths since the beginning of the visit, shouted God vigorously.
And that's just the beginning, and there's a lot of surprise to come.
Then he took two Mozambican guests to visit Huayu Century City.
The beautiful Huayu Century City made the two representatives envious.
By the time they visited Huayu Water's sewage treatment plant and the Yellow River Bridge, the two Mozambican representatives were already numb.
It wasn't until they went to Jeju to visit the Home Furnishing Industrial Park that the two Mozambican representatives cheered up again.
They know how to reach an agreement with Hua Yu in China, and in the future, their country's timber will be the resource that Hua Yu needs most.
So when they visited the Home Furnishing Industrial Park, the two of them were very serious.
Especially when I heard that the output value of the home furnishing industrial park was tens of billions a year and was still growing rapidly, Matteo Messna Tinarola went to the staff of the administration department and asked: "Mr. Huang, is the wood processing plant that your company will invest in in our country in the future like this?"
