"Sue you, Brother Zhang, you really don't know anything about the situation in Myanmar, not only the Kachin army, but also the Burmese government army, both sides are just to expand their army strength and continue to take money from various places, of course, the most is to sell resources, jade is the most famous, and now it is almost sold out, so I thought about it to protect, but it was too late."

"No, hasn't the Burmese junta collapsed a long time ago, and now it's a presidential election." Zhang Tianyuan asked suspiciously.

"Don't mention it, it's just a change of soup and not a change of medicine, you think that the military government in Myanmar has collapsed, but in fact, in Myanmar, the real power is the army, I'm afraid you don't know, the Myanmar government has no tax at all, because even if they set the tax, they can't collect it, so the only thing they can do is to sell the domestic resources to expand their own pockets and raise the army, if they don't raise it, their army combat effectiveness is not good, if they don't invest again, It is estimated that it will be cleaned up by the Kachin army or some other force. ”

"What! It's a bit strange that a government has no taxes! Zhang Tianyuan was really dumbfounded, he could only blame himself for being lonely and unheard, this was the first time he went abroad, and he really didn't know much about the strange world outside.

"What do you think, the Burmese government's financial revenue basically falls on these resource companies, in the past, as long as you meet their conditions and give them enough money, they will ignore you, no matter if you destroy the environment, if you destroy the ecology, as long as you have money, everything can be said. Now I am a little concerned about the production of jadeite. It wasn't about anything else, but it was an attempt to use hunger marketing to increase the price of jadeite. Earn more money. ”

"No, this government is too irresponsible. Is this still a government? Zhang Tianyuan was dumbfounded when he heard Yang Yaoshan's words, this whole thing is a warlord who has escaped from the military, regardless of politics, regardless of the economy, he only cares about the military, as long as he gives him money, he doesn't care what you do at all, it is estimated that even if he hollows out the whole of Myanmar. They won't care, they're still hiding under their covers and counting the money.

"You think that's outrageous, don't you? In fact, there is something more outrageous than this, that is, you don't know, do you know how the Burmese government did it when it made deals with the Chinese government? Do you know what the distribution of trade between them looks like? ”

"I really don't know this, I'm just a flat-headed ordinary person, how can I know about the government." Zhang Tianyuan shook his head with a wry smile and said.

"Sue you, that kind of deal is a one-sided deal, all the benefits have been taken away by the Huaxia side, and it would be good to have some soup on the Myanmar side. Sometimes you can't get anything, do you think Huaxia is like a big wronged leader in the world? That's because you don't know a lot of things, and Chinese people are very shrewd in business, so how can they suffer losses. When it comes to playing tricks, the Chinese people don't lose to anyone. Yang Yaoshan shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Do you know what the five permanent members of the United Nations are called on the Internet?" It's called the Big Five. Hooligans, here's the thing. I've heard a few, but I'm not going to talk about it today. I'll tell you more about it later. ”

Zhang Tianyuan was already a little confused by Yang Yaoshan's words at this time, he had been studying since he was a child. I haven't had much contact with society until I graduated from college, and I am really lonely about these things in the world.

Is it really okay for the Burmese government to do this?

In fact, Myanmar is still not a unified country, it is still divided, but it is not as strict as before, and after the country's largest rebel force was wiped out, Myanmar can be regarded as embarking on the road to peace, but the fighting on the border is still abnormal.

The Burmese government is trying to devote itself to economic development, but the problem lies in the existence of the separatist army, so that they can not concentrate on economic development at all, and can only spend a lot of money on the army, Myanmar's military expenditure is 400 million US dollars a year, which sounds like a lot, but it should be clear that these 400 million US dollars are basically two-thirds of the Burmese government's fiscal revenue in a year.

With such a small amount of money, most of it is still used for army supplies, what can the rest of the money be for?

Even building a road is very difficult, which is one of the reasons why Myanmar's development is still difficult.

It has only been a few years since Myanmar dissolved its military junta in 2011, and it is a bit difficult to make any big changes in Myanmar, after all, it seems that there is no other way to increase income in that small place than to sell resources.

Money can make ghosts grind, but without money, you really can't do anything.

Because of this, the Burmese government has been trying to destroy the Kachin Independence Army, but it has not been able to do so, and funding is a big problem. For the people of Myanmar, peace is a very rare luxury, especially for the border people, who spend almost every year in fear.

Where is it like in Huaxia, let alone regional disputes, even if it is a natural disaster, the government has a lot of funds to rebuild the disaster area and pay for the earthquake.

What about Myanmar? If there is an earthquake, we can only rely on foreign rescue, and if there is no rescue, we can only see whose life is better.

Maybe the Burmese government is not the poorest government in the world, but one of them is definitely there, and sometimes Zhang Tianyuan feels that the Burmese government may not be as rich as Yang Yaoshan's family, no wonder the Yang clan can control the country from behind the scenes.

In the past, when the military government was in the past, there was no provision for the collection of taxes in Burma, but now that the new government has been established and a tax law has been formulated, it does not dare to collect taxes, because the new government has only been established for a short time, and it will collect taxes as soon as it comes up, and if the military government does not know it, it will resurge, and the country may once again fall into turmoil and cannot extricate itself.

So because of this, Myanmar's treasury has actually been empty all the time, and the annual war consumption is also a headache for the Myanmar government.

As the saying goes, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the water to eat the water.

Middle Eastern countries made their fortune by selling oil, and the Myanmar government could only rely on selling jadeite, but unfortunately jadeite is not as universal as oil after all. Moreover, the Burmese government's control over the state is too weak to obtain the monopoly of jadeite from those stubborn local separatist forces. So even when selling resources, you have to look at other people's faces. Pathetic to the point where it couldn't be more pitiful.

Hearing this, Zhang Tianyuan not only sighed, if he came to control Myanmar, what would it be like? Probably not as good as the current Burmese government, after all, the power of the military junta is too strong, although it has now been disbanded, but the actual control power is still very strong, unless the Burmese government even disbands the army, but that is obviously unreliable.

It stands to reason. Myanmar is vast and sparsely populated, and the resources are also extremely rich, especially the reserves of precious timber and underground gems, which can rank among the top few in the world, and agriculture is also quite developed, but why can't it be rich?

Later, Zhang Tianyuan asked Yang Yaoshan to know that this had a deep relationship with the trade between China and Myanmar, and the main content of the current Sino-Burmese border trade was that the Burmese dug up the jade ore from the depths of the mountains and cut down precious trees such as teak and yew. Sold to Chinese merchants waiting aside, the Chinese brought back to China to make jewelry, furniture, and then used the money they earned to help the Burmese build roads - in order to dig more jade and cut down more trees deeper into the mountains.

And so on and on. The end result is that the Burmese are sitting on a mountain of gold, but all the Burmese can do is do hard labor. Earn a small amount of hard-earned money, but the real big money is earned by the Chinese people. They know that those resources make money, but for various reasons. These resources can only be dug up and given to others, and in the end, all they can get is some hard work and asphalt roads to build, and at most they can get a few more bungalows.

Xing, the people are bitter! Death, the people suffer!

This is very appropriate for Myanmar.

"Ahem, this is unlikely, no matter how stupid the Burmese are, it is impossible for them to watch the Chinese people make a lot of money, and they still use their resources to make a lot of money, but they are indifferent, right?"

Although Yang Yaoshan has already said it in detail, Zhang Tianyuan really can't believe that a dignified country would be mixed up to such a point, is this the so-called backwardness to be beaten?

He used to jokingly tell some friends that our country is too bad outside, and it is always bullied and bullied by small countries, but if you actually understand it, this is not the case at all, whether it is in business or politics, there are really not many countries that can really take advantage of the Celestial Empire, but they are played around by the Celestial Empire.

To be honest, Zhang Tianyuan felt that this was too bullying.

"It's not that the Burmese people are stupid, but that Myanmar is too weak, and because of its weakness, they have to rely on other countries for many things, especially Myanmar borders China, and many things have to rely on the help of China, and sometimes they can't do it. Of course, because there are many Chinese people who have settled here, they also leave a line in business, and they will not do things too much......"

Yang Yaoshan mentioned today's China, he can always feel a kind of pride in his bones, after all, his roots are in China, and his ancestors are all Chinese, but when it comes to Myanmar, he can't help but sigh, after all, Myanmar is now his country, where he lives, and where he was born and raised, so there must be feelings.

At this time, Yang Yaoshan's heart was like two demons fighting, and it was jubilant.

"What do you mean you can't do too much? Could it be that the Huaxia government, like me, felt that it was too bullying to do so, so it showed mercy? ”

Zhang Tianyuan really can't understand Yang Yaoshan's words, if he uses other people's land, earns other people's money, and plays with other people's jade, then what kind of Cheng is it? Do you have to take Myanmar as a whole to be stunned?

Yang Yaoshan did not get bored by Zhang Tianyuan's question, and explained them one by one, and after listening, Zhang Tianyuan suddenly realized that Huaxia Guo's business with Myanmar was said to be profitable, but after all, it also indirectly helped the Burmese government increase its financial revenue, and also helped some Burmese people become rich.

You must know that a large number of Myanmar's resources are sold to China, which is equivalent to helping Burmese people make money. Don't steal, don't rob, fair trade, it's really not too bad.

Moreover, after the Chinese people came, they left roads, buildings, and technologies here, which is equivalent to helping Myanmar develop and progress, and if Myanmar can really carry out economic exchanges with China, it is really possible to develop. (To be continued......)
