The talks lasted one hour and 20 minutes, and were attended by Japanese Ambassador to Myanmar Takaharu Yokoi, Chairman of the Nippon Foundation, Hiroshi Sasakawa and others.
At the talks, Nakasone stressed that he would "fully support Myanmar's democratic reforms." and handed over An Xiaosan's handwritten letter. "Japan's assistance has had a tremendous impact on Myanmar," and expressed his gratitude to the Japanese government, which has taken the lead in restarting aid to Myanmar ahead of other developed countries.
At a local press conference, Nakasone said: "Japan still wants to maintain good relations with Myanmar after the regime change." Nakasone said: "Myanmar borrows a lot and is unable to make new investments. Japan will remove this constraint and provide assistance. ”
At the talks, Japan forgave Myanmar the remaining 200 billion yen, equivalent to 2.2 billion US dollars, and promised to borrow another 400 billion yen from Myanmar for free use.
Japan's previous plan was to borrow 100 billion yen, but before Muyang explained to Sai Maokang, seize the opportunity to bite hard, during the talks, Sai Maokang proposed an amount of 500 billion yen, and the final result of the negotiation was that Japan came up with 400 billion yen.
Saimaokang can also be regarded as a big gain.
Later, Nakasone also met with Myanmar's Minister of Finance and Revenue, U Hsin Win, and Minister of the Presidency in charge of ethnic minority issues, Aung Minh. The Myanmar side thanked the Japanese side for actively providing assistance to the Thilawa Special Economic Zone on the outskirts of Yangon, the largest city.
The outside world has reported on this meeting in detail, in fact, this kind of meeting does not need to attract so much attention, but it is because of the previous worship and beating incident that this meeting has attracted so much attention. It has been reported that Nakasone, one of the key cabinet members, visited Myanmar, indicating the official launch of economic diplomacy by the Anshosan government.
Japan's new cabinet not only seeks to strengthen relations with Myanmar, which is a country with which developed countries are competing for investment, but also formulates a strategic blueprint to absorb the growing demand from the Southeast Asian economic circle and promote Japan's economic development. According to the report, Japan also seems intent on strengthening relations with Asian countries to restrain the rising China.
In the news, Nakasone's forehead, which is covered with criss-cross tape, is one of the biggest highlights of the meeting.
This meeting was very satisfying, and when Nakasone met, he didn't ask about the result of the beating, hehe, Saimaokang naturally didn't take the initiative to mention it.
Finally, Saimaokang also invited Nakasone to attend the ambassadors' meeting reception tomorrow evening, and asked him to speak at that time, and Nakasone readily agreed.
Naypyidaw Palace Hotel, Nakasone room.
The secretary put a manuscript on Nakasone's desk with both hands, "Your Excellency, this is a transcript of the speech prepared for you to attend the ambassador's meeting reception tomorrow night, please take a look at it." ”
Nakasone picked it up and flipped through it, but the more he looked at it, the more he frowned, and after reading it, he threw away the manuscript and scolded loudly: "Didn't I say that I want to add content about China, if it is not qualified, rewrite it." ”
"Foreign minister, I don't know where the bottom line is." The secretary asked cautiously.
"There is no bottom line, this attack was done by those Chinese, I suspect that this incident was planned by China, and this manuscript should add content criticizing China, economic development, political system, foreign policy, South China Sea issues, etc., all of which will be added." Nakasone pursed his thin lips and said sharply.
The secretary is awe-inspiring, and he is so unforgiving and tactful in diplomacy, and he is afraid that there will be problems if he points straight to the problem. But the secretary didn't dare to persuade him, so he could only nod his head and agree, and went out with the manuscript to change it.
Nakasone has reason to be suspicious of China, and in his phone call with Japanese Prime Minister An Kozo, he also mentioned that this time it was likely to be a Chinese conspiracy to sabotage his trip to Myanmar.
In the past, in order to curb China's development in Southeast Asia, Japan had repeatedly organized Chinese investment in these countries by means of gold dollars, and these things were done in a clear way, so the Chinese side had long hated their behavior, but to no avail.
China has contributed to the civil strife in Burma, and its relations with the new Burmese government have entered a honeymoon period, and now that Japan has come to sabotage, China naturally has a reason to sabotage Japan's actions.
Who benefits is the most suspicious, so China is the most suspicious.
If he ends this visit in anger for a while, he will inevitably fall into China's plan to drive a wedge between China, so he swallowed this matter and did not trigger it, and his support for Myanmar has increased even more, that is, he wants to hit back at China by undermining Sino-Burmese relations.
However, at this reception, he was unwilling to endure it in the face of China, and he wanted to lash out at China in front of ambassadors, journalists, and Chinese ambassadors and diplomats to vent his anger.
The Ambassador's Reception was held in the Ballroom of the Presidential Palace, which was in its usual style and was full of golden colors.
In the hall, ambassadors from various countries held wine glasses, acquaintances gathered together to talk warmly, chatting about the recent international situation, the trend of the European currency, the investment in Myanmar, and even some people talked about the Japanese foreign minister who will attend the ambassadors' reception.
Muyang also took Zhang Sheping, Shen Jianguo and other counselors to talk with the South Korean ambassador to Myanmar Kwon Jion-ryong, and at this kind of reception, basically no real diplomatic issues will be discussed, and the two sides will only chat.
At 7 o'clock in the evening, surrounded by a group of people, President Sai Maokang, Japanese Foreign Minister Nakasone Coafumi, Myanmar Foreign Minister U Ong Na Maung Lwin, and a number of parliamentarians walked into the banquet hall together.
Some of these ambassadors Sai Maokang have been in contact, and some have not even met, Sai Maokang is full of smiles, shakes hands with ambassadors of various countries, greets them, and chats briefly for a word or two.
After meeting with Sai Maokang, everyone will also come forward to shake hands with Myanmar Foreign Minister U Ong Na Maung Lun, and some people will go to meet Japanese Foreign Minister Nakasone to get acquainted, and the atmosphere at the scene is very warm.
After Muyang shook hands with Sai Maokang, he also politely walked up to Nakasone Coaven, "Hello Your Excellency Foreign Minister Nakasone, I am Muyang, Chinese Ambassador to Myanmar, and I am honored to meet you tonight." "Muyang introduced himself very politely in standard Japanese.
When Nakasone heard Muyang introduce himself as a Chinese diplomat, his eyes narrowed, the smile on his face instantly converged, and when his two eyes looked at Muyang, he even revealed a trace of coldness.
"Hmm."
Nakasone just hummed softly, and he had no intention of shaking hands with Muyang at all, and of course, there was no intention of talking.
Many people couldn't help frowning slightly when they saw this scene. (To be continued.) )
