Chapter 324: To Each His Own

For Duke, whether it is Ambassador Rama vomiting blood, or Vice President Nassiah stumbling, it is just a floating cloud, when Ambassador Rama is still struggling with the secret agreement between China and Malaysia, Duque, as the chairman of SAL, attended the investment signing ceremony at the presidential palace in the Maldives.

SAL set up Duchey International (Maldives) Investment Group Co., Ltd. in the Maldives, and packaged all of SAL's investments in Malaysia into a Duche International for management, with Duke, the big boss behind the scenes, personally serving as the chairman of Duche International, to show his attention, Dong Feng became the president of Duche International Group as he wished, and was fully responsible for the group's daily business in the Maldives.

Xie Yunfeng, who had performed well in dealing with the shutdown crisis in the Maldives in the early stage, was fortunate to be selected as the executive vice president of Duke International to assist Dong Feng in managing the company's daily affairs; Sovaz also rose to the top of the company's management as manager of Duch's international security department.

Seeing Cai Siqiang, who represented SAL, and the Minister of Home Affairs of the government Mooy signing their names together, Maldivian President Saiya held a wine glass and said to Duke on the side with irrepressible joy: "Dr. Duke, please allow me to express my gratitude on behalf of the 300,000 Maldivian people for their investment in SAL, today is a historic day, and I hope that the cooperation between Maldives and SAL can become a model for the development of Malaysia-China relations."

At the same time, I would like to welcome Dr. Duke to visit Malé on a regular basis. ”

"I would like to thank Mr. President for your attention and support to me and SAL as we will complete all construction projects in Malaysia with quality and quantity in accordance with our commitments, and contribute to the development of China-Malaysia relations." Duke raised his glass and politely thanked him.

These slogan-like clichés have long been mentioned, and although Duke does not dare to say that he can deal with it easily, his performance is also decent, and nothing goes wrong.

"With the attention of Mr. President and the support of the Maldivian people, I think these projects of SAL will definitely come to fruition in the Maldives and achieve win-win results." Liu Yali, vice minister of domestic and foreign affairs, who was reduced to accompany him, smiled and took Duke's words and said.

This time the country was able to achieve a breakthrough in the Maldives' diplomacy, and Vice Minister Liu Yali, as the main force on the diplomatic front, charged forward in the front, which can be regarded as a small achievement for the breakthrough of the military's string of pearl strategy, although this performance was more or less achieved by generosity, especially the large investment of SAL.

Therefore, for this signing ceremony, although Vice Minister Liu's seat was arranged under Duke, Vice Minister Liu was also calm and calm, without the slightest displeasure.

In the middle, in addition to Duke being the biggest financier of this agreement, there are deeper reasons that make Vice Minister Liu very content, and the person behind the promotion of this round of diplomatic offensive is actually Vice Chairman Liu, the big man in the army. Although everyone's surname is Liu, with the same sub-character, maybe it was still a family five hundred years ago, but even if Vice Minister Liu enjoys ministerial-level treatment, the gap between Vice Minister Liu and Vice Chairman Liu is incalculable.

In addition to the No. 1 nominal commander of the whole army, Vice Chairman Liu is actually one of the best bosses in the army. If it weren't for the fact that the current Nine Great Elders didn't add military personnel, otherwise Vice Chairman Liu would also be at the rank of Great Elder.

And SAL jumped out to take the lead in investing in Malaysia this time and undertook the main investment amount, to say that it has nothing to do with that Vice Chairman Liu, Vice Minister Liu Yali didn't believe it with his toes.

"I would like to thank Mr. Lau for his outstanding contribution to the in-depth development of Malaysia-China relations, and I believe that with the in-depth exchanges and cooperation between the people of Malaysia and China, we will be able to inject new vitality into the development of Malaysia-China relations." President Saiya raised his glass and gestured to Vice Minister Liu Yali.

This negotiation is the most fruitful diplomatic achievement of President Saiya since he took office, and if this result can be brought to fruition in Malaysia, it will certainly have a very important positive impact on the economy of the Maldives, which will be a great bonus to his election results in the next election.

So President Saiya is in a good mood.

As a qualified politician, President Saiya certainly knows that this kind of one-sided diplomatic strategy is extremely risky, so in recent years, President Saiya has been working hard to re-establish a balanced diplomatic line for Malaysia, including establishing close diplomatic ties with the United States and introducing China, an Asian giant, to balance the influence of Ah San.

Today, President Saiya's diplomatic strategy has finally borne fruit, and this time it has been able to bring in huge investment, which President Saiya rightly sees as a victory for his middle course.

Although the Maldives paid for the right to use a port, Ah San has established more than one port in Malaysia, and the strong military presence and military intervention in the situation in Malaysia in previous years have made Ma and these politicians feel very uncomfortable.

Duke also frequently raised his glass to President President Ma and various senior officials in attendance, saying that it was an unexpected gain for Duke to take this opportunity to take deep roots in the Maldives and establish close relations with the top level of the Maldivian authorities.

Although from the current situation, the return on these investments will not be too high for a while, and there will not be much income in the short term, but the possibility of losing money in a long period of time such as 3 to 5 years will not be too great.

Of course, there is a more important convenience that products produced in the Maldives can avoid some tariffs and regulatory barriers in the South Asian market when entering the South Asian market. For example, Ah San often has a lot of difficulties with goods from China, but for the Maldives there are no such restrictions at all.

So from an economic point of view, Duke's investment this time can be regarded as relatively successful, not to mention that there is a country behind it, this time Duke does not have to worry too much about these investments being meat buns and dogs.

On the other hand, SAL's high-profile entry into the Maldives also means that Duke's company has begun to take root in the high-level management of the Maldives, and after a huge investment, Duke International has become a significant large company in the Maldives.

No one knew that a small storm would cause so many changes, so that Duke could achieve better results in this turmoil, and for Duke it was indeed as magical as the shining bonus of the aura of luck.

But can Ah San really watch Duke's company grow smoothly in Mashun?
