Chapter 436: Population Policy

Among them, the jurisdiction of Coconut City is the former town of East Java. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info is just that before Coconut City, it was the capital of Nanyang Overseas Territory. Therefore, considering its administrative and administrative functions, it is classified as a separate city. The seat of the town of East Java is also located in the city of Sireng, on the Sunda Strait.

This is the seat of the later administration of Banten Province in Indonesia, and the economy is quite developed. However, in modern times, it is less than one percent of later generations.

Nowadays, the island of Java has become a separate province, and the seat of the overseas territory of Nanyang has also been moved to Johor Bahru. Therefore, there is no need for a separate city in the coconut city. Therefore, from the perspective of geographical location and economic development, Coconut City has replaced Sirloin.

However, it is foreseeable that Coconut City will still be listed separately in the end. Because Coconut City is not only the seat of governance in East Java, but also the seat of governance in the entire province of Java. There will be some overlap in administrative and administrative functions.

It's just that at the moment, Java has a small population and limited development. Therefore, there are not many administrative and administrative functions to be undertaken and the affairs to be handled. Therefore, in order to reduce the waste of administrative and political resources, Daming temporarily let Coconut City bear a little more.

And Semarang, which has always been the seat of West Java Town, has only changed its name now. However, when the island of Java was separated into a separate province, the mayor of Semarang, Mahmood, and the mayor of Coconut City actively argued about the administration of Java Province.

In his opinion, Semarang is close to the Ming Dynasty and has good agricultural development. Therefore, it is best to become the capital of a province.

Unfortunately, the history and geographical advantages of Coconut City cannot be replaced by Semarang. So that in the end, the capital of a province still fell into the hands of Coconut City.

When he heard about Mahmood, he was so angry that he quarreled with the mayor of Coconut City. But this is irrelevant gossip, so I won't mention it for now.

After so many years of development, the economy of Java Island has not improved.

Of course, this is not because the local chief executive in Java is not good, but because of the population. After all, the Ming Dynasty implemented a population replacement policy for Nanyang. In the past, Java was the most populous island in the South Seas.

But in recent years, the population replacement policy has not stopped. The population of the island has always been 'more out and less in'. And considering that the founding history of Java Island is relatively early, and the inheritance is also long. In addition, the locals are different from the primitive indigenous people on other islands, and have a certain sense of community.

Therefore, the population replacement policy has been implemented most thoroughly in the local area. In just a year and a half, the island's natives living in towns and cities were emptied of seven or seven eighty-eight. In another three years, all the large-scale township communities were emptied. Until now, except for the more remote and hidden village communities or tribes, they have not been discovered. Everywhere else, the houses were empty.

Resistance is indispensable in this. But Da Ming never thought that he would have to listen to the opinions of the indigenous people. So their resistance was only exchanged for a butcher's knife. It's like the 'Oni, Son, Enter, Village' of the Hereafter! Although it did not reach the point of burning, killing, looting, and plundering, people were to be taken away, and the village was to be emptied. Things, of course, are to be taken.

Otherwise, it would be a waste to keep it! This is very inconsistent with the 'diligence and thrift' advocated by the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, in order to comply with the advocacy of the Ming Dynasty, it is only incumbent on me to take it.

Many years later, some newspapers learned the inside story of the migration from a few living Javanese natives and the soldiers in charge of emptying Java. For this reason, it was widely reported and used to blame the KPA for its work and style.

Among the people, it has caused a lot of public opinion turmoil.

The Ministry of Defense, which was under great pressure, even had to ask someone to come out and make a statement. It is said that the time is too long, and there is no corresponding documentation, so the authenticity of the report is not recognized. He even took the newspaper and the reporter to court together.

In the end, the court fined the newspaper for insufficient evidence and ordered the reporter to publish an apology.

This matter has finally come to an end.

But that's all for later!

In order to rule Java Island more effectively, the Ming Dynasty also shot the kings of several small countries on the island. Legally, the possibility of Java's restoration is absolutely avoided.

Some temples and buildings with local characteristics were also demolished. For example, the Mu Si Lin Church and the king's palace were all razed to the ground by the Ming Dynasty. Although all of this consumes manpower and material resources, there is no hesitation in order to erase the local cultural imprint.

In addition, books, clothing, pictures and other material carriers with ethnic characteristics were also unanimously banned and burned. Although there are still a few remains, it is difficult to find anything related to Javanese culture in the market.

Even the history of Java was also erased by the Ming Dynasty. The history of the country and the world published by the Ministry of Education simply says that from the beginning to the end, Java was ruled and oppressed by feudal feudal powers, political powers, and foreign colonial powers.

Later, it was the Ming Dynasty who allowed the Javanese people to live a life of being the masters of their own affairs. As for what kind of population replacement, the local Javanese people were emptied, naturally it will not be mentioned.

Over time, the new immigrants living on the island of Java, as well as the descendants of the Javanese who were relocated to various parts of the Ming Dynasty, will be deeply ingrained in the belief that these histories are the true history of Java.

This trick was learned from later Tsarist Russia and Japan. In one word, it is 'cultural extinction'.

For example, the assimilation policy that the Ming Dynasty has been promoting in Australia has made Australian aborigines, culturally and spiritually, become Han people through and through. After so many years of development, not to mention how loyal those adult natives were to the Ming Dynasty, just the Hanfu they wore and the Chinese language they spoke, you can see how successful the policy of assimilation was.

Even the words 'Macao, continent, land, and writing' have become words that they have discarded. If anyone says in front of them, it is indispensable to fight hard with their fists.

Of course, that's not enough! Because from the founding of the Ming Dynasty to the present, it has only been seven years. The youngest generation has not yet fully grown up. They do not integrate into the Ming society and do not play their due role.

Even if it's not perfect!

It's cultural. In terms of blood, Australian aborigines have to constantly intermarry with Han Chinese, whites, and Nanyang aborigines. The most important thing is that Han people intermarry. Over the years, their identities have become more and more like Da Ming.

Like now, the civil affairs department of the Ming Dynasty encourages intermarriage between different ethnic groups. In the name of promoting social harmony, it is actually confusing their identity.

It's just that it takes time!

After all, it takes ten or twenty years for a generation to grow. And blood assimilation takes at least three or five generations. Therefore, the strategy of assimilation still has a long way to go.
