Chapter V Failed to Seek

Although being Malay-based will face many difficulties, Li Jianhui still will not choose England. Compared with other places, only Nanyang is the most suitable for Tung Wah Club.

In order for the Xin Jian Li family to truly take root in Malay, and for the Tung Wah Association to be more secure in Malay, Li Jianhui did not stop, and even Chen Yulian, who was pregnant, also participated.

At 3 pm on February 18, Chen Yulian, as the governor of Donghua Territory, led Donghua Territory Chief Executive Pang Yi, Army Chief of Staff Liu Lifeng, Financial Development Administration Director Huang Dan and others to visit Malay to deepen the relationship between Donghua Territory and Donghua Territory.

Malay cooperation.

At the Prime Minister's Office in Kuala Lumpur, Hu Kern, as Prime Minister, led many cabinet members to warmly receive Chen Yulian and others, and held talks with them.

“Our Donghua Territory and Malay belong to the same Commonwealth and are in Asia. This is also the first country we have visited since the official establishment of the Donghua Territory.

We came here firstly to learn from Malaysia’s experience in rapid economic development in recent years, and secondly because we hope to strengthen cooperation between the two sides.”

Hu Kern knew very well that Chen Yulian, as the governor of Donghua Territory, led many high-level officials from the Donghua Territory government to come to discuss cooperation. Such a huge effort would definitely not be a simple cooperation.

Although he has strong support from the Tung Wah Association as Prime Minister, as a Malay, he will not completely side with the interests of the Tung Wah Association.

Facing Chen Yulian's mention of deepening cooperation between Donghua Territory and Malay, Hu Kern agreed, but in terms of specific cooperation, Hu Kern only accepted economic cooperation and simple military cooperation.

For example, companies registered in Donghua Territory can be listed on the Johor Bahru Exchange. In this regard, like the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, Donghua Territory is given a special status, which can help Donghua Territory become another offshore center in the world.

As for military cooperation, which is the highlight of this negotiation, Donghua Territory and Malay are allowed to hold joint military exercises, but they do not agree to give Donghua Territory a permanent military base.

Even if Tan Yulian cited various reasons, such as familiarizing the Malay troops with advanced equipment and helping the Malays deal with border threats, it could not change the attitude of Hu Kern and his cabinet members at all.

Hu Kern even said bluntly: "Mrs. Li Chen, we Malays have always maintained close cooperation with the Tung Wah Association. We are also willing to develop together between the Malay and Tung Wah Associations. We also welcome and are happy that the Tung Wah Association has taken root in Malay."

.

But we don’t want the Tung Wah Association to touch on some principle issues, and we also hope the Tung Wah Association can respect our Malay special social form and some special systems.”

Listening to Hu Kern's resolute attitude, Chen Yulian knew that Li Jianhui's plan was currently out of the question. Maybe in a few years, after a Chinese prime minister is replaced, there might be some possibilities, such as Johor Governor Zhang Zhengwen.

As for Hu Kern, from the moment he refused, he has become an abandoned son of the Donghua Society. During his current term, the Donghua Society will maintain a relatively friendly relationship with him. When the new term comes, will the Donghua Society no longer spend money on him?

A sliver of resources.

And it’s not that Li Jianhui didn’t have a backup plan this time. Since it was temporarily unavailable here, Chen Yulian and the Donghua Territory Government officials did not stay in Malay for too long. They attended the reception dinner held by Malay for him that night and took the bus the next morning.

The special plane went to Wenlai.

At the same time, at the Prime Minister's Office, Hu Kern held a special meeting with cabinet members. The main discussion was the impact of the first visit of Donghua Territory high-level officials.

Foreign Minister Palad was the first to speak: "After this time, the relationship between our cabinet and the Donghua Association will no longer be so harmonious. Today, Chen Yulian and others went to Wenlai to complete the work that we did not have here."

Completed plan.

In this regard, I am afraid that the Wenlai government will not be as resolute as we are.

You must know that over the years, Wenlai's main economy has been affected by the Donghua Association. In addition, due to the manipulation behind the scenes by the Donghua Association in recent years, the total population of Wenlai has increased from less than 200,000 five years ago to 450,000 now.

The proportion of Chinese people has exceeded that of native ethnic groups.

Moreover, due to the investment driven by the Tung Wah Association in recent years and the rapid economic development of Wenlai, even the ordinary people of the local ethnic groups are leaning towards the National United Party supported by the Tung Wah Association.

Although Wen Lai is now the Sultan and serves as the Prime Minister, because his country is small and the army is weak, and the Sultan's family has experienced rapid growth in assets by cooperating with the Donghua Association in recent years, Chen Yulian came over at this time to help Wen Lai.

If it’s for defense against foreign enemies, and if you don’t ask for money to pay for military expenses, the other party will most likely agree.”

The people present are not simple people who can sit in the current position, and they also understand the meaning of Parade's words.

But they understand the meaning of the Donghua Society better, and why the other party insists on stationing troops here. The main reason is to guard against them, and they are worried that one day they will use troops to target the Donghua Society.

Tung Wah has such worries, which means that Tung Wah will touch the bottom line of the current Malay system. Obviously Tung Wah is not satisfied with some of the current systems.

To be honest, Hu Kern has some regrets now. He once considered the rapidly developing economy and gave the green light to the development of Donghua Association in order to be able to sit in his current position.

Now the Tung Wah Association is a giant in Malay, and the People's Liberation Party it supports has become the third largest party in Malay.

Although there are no members in the cabinet yet, there are already two governors of Johor and Penang, as well as mayors of three important cities, namely Johor Bahru, Penang and Kuala Lumpur.

Especially Kuala Lumpur, which is on the same level as a state and is the capital of Malay, so it can be said to be very influential.

Moreover, due to the large number of immigrants in recent years, the difference between the Malays and the Malays is not big, and the proportion of Chinese in Malays is quickly surpassing that of the natives. This is not a good sign in Hu Kern's opinion.

Just because of the system, even if he wanted to make changes in this area, he was powerless.

For example, in Johor, he has received news that the state government is making strange moves frequently. Now it actually wants to contact the north directly and attract people in the form of workers. Then as long as the workers are willing to settle in Johor, they will directly open the door to facilitate them.

Apply for settlement.

Even the door must be opened to illegal immigrants. As long as they enter Johor, as long as they have a formal job, and as long as they are not wanted by various countries and regions, they will be allowed to settle in Johor.

Hu Kern believes that Johor is the first to do this, but it will definitely not be the last. I am afraid that it will not be long before Malacca, Perak and Binzhou will follow suit.

As a federal country, the cabinet is not very binding on local states. Regardless of Johor, Malacca, Perak, Penang, Kuala Lumpur, and the Tung Wah Association, they all have strong influence.

In addition, the Tung Wah Association's industrial layout is in several key locations and requires a large number of employees. Therefore, in addition to Kuala Lumpur, which is strongly influenced by the cabinet, several other states will inevitably increase their population for the sake of their own economic development and for the Tung Wah Association to invest more.

The introduction, especially the introduction of Chinese people.

Moreover, Hu Kern also knew that there was an undercurrent among the people, targeting the nine major families. It was unclear whether Donghua was manipulating him behind the scenes.

But he knew that some states and municipalities were happy to see this undercurrent, and except for a few people, no one was willing to have another god on their head.

Since independence, there have always been voices against the nine major families. A typical example was Xingzhou. In the end, there was no way to directly let Xingzhou become independent.

Although it has not exploded this time, Hu Kern knows that it will definitely be more difficult to end in the future than when Xingzhou left independently, and he does not know what the outcome will be then.

Freedom, equality, and prosperity are the things that everyone pursues and yearns for, but often these things become the source of turmoil. Hu Kern does not know whether he is right or wrong to befriend the Donghua Society for economic development over the years.
