Chapter 1121: Know the Inside Story

After completing the submission of credentials and meeting with President U Minhui, Muyang left the government office, got into his car, took his escort, and went to the office of the Myanmar Embassy in Mandalay, where they will stay in the next few days. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

If it weren't for a Chinese-Burmese bilingual plaque hanging at the door and the Chinese flag hanging from the window on the second floor, the embassy office would not have known that this was actually a diplomatic office.

In fact, it is not surprising, because there are many offices like China on this street, Myanmar is in civil strife, the capital is occupied by Aung Hlaing, the government as a whole has fled to Mandalay, and now Myanmar only has a government framework, which is basically difficult to function.

Embassies had to set up an office in Mandalay in order to communicate with the Myanmar government. As for the embassies in Naypyidaw, some are still holding out, such as China, while most have been evacuated, leaving only the office in Mandalay to facilitate communication and understanding of the situation in Myanmar.

Outside the small building, there were already a few people greeting them, and Ma Xiaobo took the lead in getting out of the car and introducing them to both parties.

"Hello Ambassador, I'm Chen Chen." Chen Zheng was the head of the Information and Public Diplomacy Section of the Myanmar Embassy with the rank of Counsellor and was later sent to Mandalay.

"Counselor Chen, it's been a hard time in Mandalay." Muyang stretched out his hand and shook hands tightly with Chen Chen.

"It's not hard, ambassador, please inside, let's talk inside."

Everyone walked into the living room, and after Muyang came in, he looked carefully, this is indeed a residential decoration, even if some arrangements were made temporarily, Muyang could see the taste of the original residence from many places.

Chen Zheng introduced three other staff members to Muyang, Muyang shook hands with them one by one, and then everyone sat down.

Muyang chatted with the four people about the situation in the office, although there are only 4 people here, but there are still a lot of things, responsible for communicating with the Myanmar government, applying for passports, helping compatriots evacuate, collecting information and the latest developments in Myanmar, so the hard work that Muyang said is not polite, they are really hard.

If the political situation in Myanmar does not change much in the near future, Muyang may consider reporting to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to open a consulate in Mandalay, and then shift the focus to this side, and the embassy in Naypyidaw will reduce its staff, so that there will be no delay.

Then the others dispersed, Mu Yang called Chen Zheng to come to the dormitory prepared for Mu Yang, Mu Yang pointed to the chair and said: "Counselor Chen, let's talk alone, I came here this time, first, to present the credentials to President Wu Minhui to officially take office, and the other is to understand the real situation of the current Myanmar government, not the situation in the report." After the coup d'Γ©tat broke out in Myanmar, you came to Mandalay to be in charge of the evacuation, and then you stayed here to take charge of the office, and I think you know the situation here best, so I want to ask you. ”

"Don't dare to ask, Ambassador, you want to know about that." Counselor Chen Zheng asked.

"What is the situation within the Burmese government, and whether they have the strength to quell the rebellion in the short term and bring stability back to Myanmar." Muyang asked.

"Now the voice within the Burmese government is not unified, U Minhui controls part of the army, and there are some government supporters, but because of his policy mistakes caused by civil unrest, the voice of internal opposition is also very strong, and now he is only relying on the army to support."

"Some lawmakers have already proposed to settle the dispute through peace talks, get Myanmar back on the right track, achieve temporary stability, and then slowly resolve the remaining issues. This faction, known as the moderates, now wants to stop the war, settle disputes through dialogue, and eliminate confrontation through political means. This faction probably accounts for about 40% of the members of the parliament. ”

"The other faction is the so-called hardliners, who advocate the elimination of civil strife by force, the elimination of all the rebels, the realization of real unity and stability, the elimination of decades of ills in Myanmar, and the removal of the burden and the great strides forward. President Wu Minhui is the leader of the hardliners, and this part of the population accounts for about 60%. ”

"There are also those who argue that Wu Minhui's misguided policies have caused civil unrest, and that he should be handed over to the presidency because he has already been left behind. The idea is to re-elect a moderate to power. ”

However, Goh Minhui said that his previous policy was not wrong, and that the coup d'Γ©tat was caused by the unwillingness of the military to give up power in their hands, and that if these warlords were not eradicated, Myanmar would never be able to achieve true democratic governance, and that it would never be able to get out of the shadow of the military junta. As for the issue of the presidency, the situation in the country is now chaotic and volatile, and there is no soil for democratic elections, so he will remain in the presidency until the next legitimate elections. ”

When Mu Yang heard this, he felt funny in his heart, if he wanted to argue shamelessly, people could find out any reason, Wu Minhui would not easily give up the power of the president, especially at this stage, if he gave up the president and had no real power in the army, the army below might not listen to him in the future, then his fate in the future may be very miserable, Wu Minhui can naturally realize it, so he will hold on to the power in his hands.

"Who is the leader of the moderates?" Muyang asked.

"It used to be the speaker of the National Assembly, Zo Linwu, and now, it's Sai Maokang." Chen Zheng replied.

"Sai Maokang, Vice President Sai Maokang." Mu Yang muttered, and then his heart moved, and he asked Chen Zheng, "How much do you know about Sai Maokang." ”

"He is not a military man, he has always been in politics, and before becoming vice president of Myanmar, he was the minister of education, a senior member of the Myanmar Democratic League and, most importantly, the son-in-law of the speaker of the National Assembly, Sa Lin Go. Zuo Lin Wu was a high-ranking government official during the Dan Shwe military government, and he has always stood tall, and his power within the government is very strong, and he also has a certain strength in the army. Chen Zheng said.

Muyang thought to himself, I'll just say, how can you climb so fast without a little root, become vice president at the age of 51, and after being elected as a moderate leader, after fighting with Wu Minhui, he can still sit firmly in the position of vice president, which explains everything.

It seems that the Myanmar government is also full of contradictions within the country, the warlords outside are divided, and there is no unified understanding inside, although Wu Minhui is a president with a strong hand, but his political wisdom, the situation was originally very good, and now let him make it like this, it can be seen that it is not good.

Perhaps it was the temper he had developed when he was in the military and liked to deal with problems with a more forceful approach, but the complexity of political issues was clearly greater than he predicted.

However, Muyang became interested in Saimaokang. (To be continued.) )
