Chapter 1002: Chinatown
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs officially wrote a report to the State Institute of Physics and reported it to the state leaders, and then the State Institute instructed several departments to form a working group to start handling the matter. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
From the beginning to the end, the leaders did not pay much attention to the construction of a state-level television station in Djibouti, and the main instructions focused on how to carry out propaganda work in Africa. From the form to the details, from the taboo to the content that needs to be preached, there are serious instructions, but only two words of consent are signed on the aid.
In the eyes of the leaders, aiding the construction of a television station is really not a matter.
On the beach of Djibouti, rows of food stalls have been built, Chinese chefs have been put in place, Djibouti has done enough publicity work, foreign tourists have increased by 30% compared to usual, Djiboutians have also poured in, and Chinese culture month has officially begun.
The smell of food is fragrant, and people take a dip in the sea or play volleyball and football on the beach. After having fun, go to the food stall and have a delicious meal, which is so unpleasant.
The activities of the entire cultural month have been carried out in parallel, and the film screening team, led by the Government of Djibouti, has gone deep into the rural areas of Djibouti to show the films.
In the city, the Chinese Commodity Bazaar has taken over the original Djibouti Bazaar, which has been made cleaner and tidier, and the goods sold are all goods shipped from China. Many people come here to purchase, some stainless steel pots, small electrical appliances have become sought-after goods.
Djiboutian women love beauty, although they also wear Arab robes, also known as Dishidash, when they go out, like other Arab countries. But unlike the monotonous black, gray and white of Arab countries, Djiboutian women's capes are more colorful and colorful, available in a variety of colors, and with a veil that does not completely cover their faces.
At the big market, Chinese silk products became a hot commodity, because Djiboutian women felt that there was no more gorgeous scarf than these Chinese silk products.
In the evening, in the center of Djibouti, there will be Chinese opera and martial arts performances for a month. Of course, the Ministry of Culture sent a total of 5 groups, including Peking Opera and Kunqu Opera troupes, as well as 2 martial arts troupes.
Other forms of cultural month activities are also being carried out in an orderly manner, and the whole activity has suddenly made Djibouti alive and made the originally hot and quiet Djibouti night more vibrant.
After the weaving art exchange activity, Counselor Yu Juan returned to the embassy, and said to Muyang with a smile on his face after seeing Muyang: "Ambassador, after the weaving art exchange, Djibouti's Minister Abdi told me that our cultural month activities have made Djibouti a lot more lively at once, and the number of tourists has increased by nearly 5% compared with the same period in previous years. β
Muyang smiled and said: "Don't listen to Abdi fooling you, we are losing money in China this time, many things are sold cheaply on the freight, those invited performance groups, aren't they all paid by your Ministry of Culture, of course he is happy, I am not so stupid, I support him once a year." β
Djibouti's Minister of Culture, Communications and Posts and Telecommunications Abdi? Hussein? Ahmed and Muyang are very familiar, they were promoted after Odova came to power, don't look at the little old man who is black and thin, but he is shrewd, and he has also studied in the UK and has a high education.
"Naturally, we can't do anything to lose money in the future, but I think this kind of exchange can still continue, and maybe it's good to build a Chinatown in Djibouti." Muyang said.
Counselor Yu Juan listened to Muyang's words, and her eyes lit up, Chinatown is a famous brand of China in foreign countries, and if Djibouti can also have such a street, it is definitely the best propaganda for China.
Counselor Yu Juan immediately became excited, "Ambassador, your idea of a Chinatown is too good, if a Chinatown is built in Djibouti, it will become the first official Chinatown in Africa, and there will be a large number of Chinese here in the future, as well as our military base, this is also an important port in Africa, it is too necessary to build a Chinatown." β
Muyang just mentioned it casually, but he didn't know that he was caught by this eldest sister again.
"Ambassador, I think only you can do this, and if you can't do it, then no one can do it, with your relationship with President Odova......"
Mu Yang looked at Counselor Yu Juan in a daze, feeling that he had heard this several times, and suddenly Mu Yang realized that he was being used by this eldest sister, so he used a few words to trap himself, praised him violently, and then let himself have to do it.
Moreover, these few sentences are all about the cultural development of Djibouti, including this cultural month, Chinese TV channels and other things.
This Sister Yu's routine is deep enough.
"Sister Yu, you, the cultural counselor sent by the Ministry of Culture, have really not forgotten your roots, and you will spare no effort to do cultural undertakings." Muyang smiled at Counselor Yu Juan and said.
"Ambassador, I'm not selfish, it's all for work, for China's development, isn't it, in fact, with your relationship with President Odova, what I said is right, when it's so good, why don't you do more things, you say yes." Counselor Yu Juan said confidently.
When people talk about things with righteousness, what else can they say, isn't work just to use all convenient conditions to overcome all difficulties and achieve their goals. Sister Yu's approach is right.
"Okay, I'll remember that, go back and ask President Odova."
"When an ambassador is out, there's nothing that can't be done. Anyway, there's nothing you can't do yet. β
"Sister Yu, if you praise me again, you will go directly to heaven."
Both of them laughed.
That night, Muyang made a phone call to Odova and asked him about the situation in the country, especially the state of the army.
Djibouti, with a total strength of about 3,000 troops, including 1,200 in the army, is organized into an artillery regiment, a border guard force and an armored company. There are 60 people in the Navy. The Air Force has 100 people and has an airbase. There are also 120 members of the gendarmerie and 1,400 members of the National Guard.
The National Guard is the president's direct protection force, and the commander was personally replaced and promoted by Odova after he came to power, and there is no problem with this loyalty.
The navy and air force can be said to be useless, and Odova is more worried about the army, after all, President Guelleh has been in power for 10 years, which is deep-rooted, although Odova has changed the commander of the army, but it is difficult to guarantee whether there will be any changes in the officers below.
The other side is preparing to launch a coup d'Γ©tat, and will definitely contact the personnel of the army side, but so far, Odova has not found out who in the army is likely to rebel. (To be continued.) )
