Chapter 21 The Roots of Turmoil

…Early everyone in the Pan Ran believes that after the Syrian-Israel War in 2019, the Republic’s strategic focus is on preparing to compete with the United States in the Middle East, but the situation is far from that simple. 8 years ago, Gu Weimin did not support the Middle East War, and now Yan Jingyu is also hesitant on the Middle East issue.

It’s not that the Middle East is not important. It’s that the Republic has other problems that need to be solved.

For the Republic, the Middle East is just a place far away from the sky. No matter how big the matter is, it will not have a great impact on the Republic. Compared with the Middle East, Indonesia in the south, the Philippines in the southeast, and Japan in the south are much more important, and it will have a much greater impact on the Republic.

Among the many neighboring countries in the Republic, Indonesia is the second largest country with a population after India. Even if you look at the world, Indonesia's population is only smaller than India, the Republic and the United States. Feng Nian, Indonesia's total population exceeds Hongnian, of which many people are located on Java Island, which covers an area of ​​10,000 square kilometers. In addition, people are located in Kalimantan, known as Boni or Borneo, and the third largest island in the world after Greenland and New Guinea, Sumatra, Sulawesi, Bali, Xidiwen and Seran Island, etc.

On ten thousand islands, thanks to their abundant marine resources and unique natural environment, Indonesia's social development has not been interrupted for decades. Although compared with other Southeast Asian countries, Indonesia has not achieved industrialization like Malaysia, has not become a tourist power like Thailand, has not become a shipping and financial power like Singapore, and is not even comparable to the Philippines, which relies on the aid of the United States, Indonesia has an advantage that these countries do not have, that is, its relatively independent international status.

The one who changed the fate of Indonesia is walking out of the South China Sea War in the old year.

When the Republic smashed the sledgehammer to Vietnam and the Philippines, Indonesia followed Malaysia and made the wisest choice, which was to recognize the hegemony of the South China Sea region and withdraw from the sovereignty battle between the islands of the Nansha Islands and the South China Sea waters.

The subsequent Peninsula War and Japan War made the Indonesian authorities no longer put their hopes on the United States and Japan, and even once intentionally alienated the United States and actively improved relations with the Republic.

Although on some major issues, such as giving the Chinese equal social and political rights, fighting pirates in the Java Sea, at that time, traveling to and from the Republic and the Middle East, as well as the ugly 10,000-ton supercarrier ships between the Republic and the African continent, 80,000-ton ones needed to pass through the Sunda Strait, and to pass through the Java Sea. The fight against transnational criminal organizations mainly involves money laundering, and combating drug trafficking forces. The Republic sends troops to eradicate the Golden Triangle located in the old border area of ​​Myanmar and Thailand and the drug cultivation base in the Crescent Area of ​​Afghanistan, Indonesia

The Kalimantan and Sumatra region have become new drug production areas, and nearly 60% of the drugs are exported to the Republic, and Indonesia has not actively cooperated with the Republic, and even intended to create obstacles. However, after the South China Sea War, the Peninsula War, the Japanese War, the Indian War and the Middle East War, the Republic has no time to take care of it, so it is not only impossible to deal with Indonesia, but also has to rely on Indonesia to block the threat from Australia and use Indonesia to restrain the Philippines, which is ready to move.

The reunion year has reached a new year, which is definitely the golden year for China-Indonesia relations.

The cooperation that lasts for a long time is enough to change a lot of things.

In the eyes of many people, after sweeping almost the entire Southeast Asia region, the Republic is fully capable of dealing with Indonesia in a peaceful evolution and turning Indonesia into a country like Mexico. Because before the year, the Republic's primary task was not to dominate the world, but to solve the increasingly severe population aging problem. It expands overseas markets for domestic high-end industries and provides cheap goods for the domestic consumer market, so the Republic has no reason to "leave" Indonesia, which has a large population and rich resources for the population of two years.

.

The question is, is Indonesia an ideal city with a labor exporter?

You should know that as early as the end of the Li century, Indonesia's population exceeded that of Yinyi, and it is one of the top ten oil exporters in the world. It is the largest producer and exporter of natural rubber, and it is also the main exporter of mineral resources such as media, tin, bauxite, and terpine. However, Indonesia has not been favored by international capital because of this. It has not been able to rely on huge labor and abundant resources to achieve industrialization. Even in the second year, Indonesia's industrialization level is very low, not even comparable to the Philippines, which is in a similar situation.

Among the many reasons for this phenomenon, in addition to the unchangeable historical and natural factors such as ideology and culture, natural environment, it is mainly related to Indonesia's basic national conditions, that is, Indonesia is an island country composed of multiple islands, and an island country located in tropical regions. This alone has had an immeasurable impact on the construction of Indonesia's modern country. The new address of this site has been changed to: Just a sip...8. Please log in to Yueling!

In fact, Indonesia and the Philippines are very similar.

Both countries are located in Southeast Asia. They are both island countries, with a large population and abundant resources, but they are not able to embark on the road of industrialization like other Southeast Asian countries and become modern countries. Compared with Malaysia, we can see that although Malaysia is also one pound, half of its territory is at the Yuenai Shuao. Just now, Sun Zhaobi and others are on the island, while the other half is on the Malay Peninsula. However, the population of Malay is concentrated in several states on the Malay Peninsula, and only the Malay population is distributed on Kalimantan Island. Therefore, Malaysia can focus its development in the west, so as to catch the last bus of industrialization and successfully realize national modernization.

It can be seen from this that as an island country, the isolation effect produced by geographical dispersal makes the national power scattered and blocks domestic exchanges, thus having a serious negative impact on national construction. Take Indonesia for example. More than half of the country's population is concentrated on Java Island, which accounts for less than the courtyard of the country, and half of these populations are concentrated in Jakarta, Bandung and Shui Waiting for big cities. There is a strange phenomenon of Java Island being defeated and concealed, and the city is crowded and small infrastructure is seriously out of place. Other places, such as Sumatra, Kalimantan, Sulawesi and Ilian Island, New Guinea, and other areas have rich resources, but because of their vast land and sparse population, the infrastructure is backward.

Ultimately, it is "uneven distribution of resources."

This basic national condition determines that Indonesia cannot successfully complete industrialization, nor can it become a modern country easily.

Historically, Indonesia has never been a modern country.

Not to mention, a military coup broke out shortly after getting independent from colonial rule and then experienced decades of military dictatorship. Even after achieving democratic elections at the end of the Knife Century, Indonesia still has not been able to escape the influence of military interference in politics.

That's why the Republic did not treat Indonesia as it did in support of Malaysia after the South China Sea War.

Of course, the international situation in Southeast Asia has also had an impact on the basic policies of the Republic.

After the South China Sea War, the Republic was busy dealing with Japan and had to deal with threats from the Korean Peninsula and the South Asian subcontinent, so it was unable to expand the results of the Southeast Asian region. For example, after the Philippines turned to the United States, the Republic could only let it go and did not take any targeted actions. From the perspective of later development, after 0 years, the Republic's basic policy in Southeast Asia was to stabilize its achievements rather than to be proactive. Because the south of Indonesia is the Australian continent, Australia is the United States' base camp in the Southwest Pacific region and is also the last line of defense in this direction. Use some

In the words of Western news media, unless the United States loses a world war, it will never abandon Australia. In other words, it is unlikely that the Republic will go south to "land into Australia after controlling Indonesia. Therefore, on the issue of whether to control Indonesia, the Republic authorities have to make long-term calculations. Although controlling Indonesia can obtain a huge market and rich resources, it will definitely require huge efforts to confront the United States face to face, and even pay a heavy price. Whether it can benefit from it is definitely a question.

Relatively speaking, using Indonesia as a buffer zone and avoiding direct confrontation with the United States can ensure the republic’s hegemony in other parts of Southeast Asia, and can even subtly influence Singapore. Let the United States retreat to the Philippines and clear the obstacles to entering the Indian Ocean.

It can be seen from this that the status of Beidonesia is very embarrassing.

Of course, not controlling Indonesia does not mean not occupying Indonesia's market and resources.

Since the beginning of the year, the Republic has gradually relaxed trade restrictions on Indonesia. You should know that at that time, the global financial crisis had evolved into a Great Depression. The global economy was rushing from the peak to the bottom like alpine skiing. Almost all countries built trade barriers and provided huge trade subsidies to export companies through export tax rebates and other methods. The international trade system may collapse at any time. The Republic relaxed trade restrictions on Indonesia at this time, which was equivalent to saving Indonesia and allowing millions of Indonesians to gain job opportunities to support their families.

Of course, businessmen must have no profit to get up early, and there is no reason to aid Indonesia for no reason.

As we all know, the impact of the Great Depression on the Republic is far less than that on the United States. It can even be said that the Republic is the beneficiary of the Great Depression. According to a statistical data released by the Republic authorities at the end of the year, in the past year when the economic environment was worst during the Great Depression, the Republic achieved an average annual economic growth rate of 3 chambers, while the annual average annual growth rate of the global economy was negative during the same period. In other words, the relative economic growth rate of the Republic was as high as 7 chambers. After the end of the Great Depression, the relative economic growth rate of the Republic was only in the gill-year period, and the economic growth rate of the Republic was 8 years. The global economic growth rate of the global economic growth was 2 months. This shows that the impact of the Great Depression on the Republic is on the surface, not to the point of being hurt. In comparison, the blows suffered by Western countries led by the United States in the Great Depression are not enough to describe it as "tragic".

There is no doubt that trade is an economic exchange between countries and must be fair and equal.

The Republic opens its domestic market to Indonesia, and Indonesia also needs to open up something to the Republic.

Of course. With the economic situation in Indonesia, if the domestic market is fully opened to the Republic during the Great Depression, the national economy will definitely be severely damaged. Thousands of domestic enterprises are defeated or annexed by the Republic's multinational corporations, and a new anti-China wave breaks out. The Republic's multinational corporations do not need Indonesia to fully open up, because after the reunion, the Republic has changed its address to: Just train the old and fat grandson... Can you please help me! Their eyes are concentrating their efforts in Malaysia, Vietnam, Thailand, Myanmar, and Yulik Mopusai.

When Southeast Asian countries conquered cities and villages, they had to make arrangements in Pakistan, Nepal, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka in South Asia. After the Peninsula War, the Republic spent a lot of effort to help North Korea rebuild its homeland. After the Japanese War, in order to prepare for the printing level, the Republic's economic policies began to turn to the domestic market and no longer encouraged capital foreign investment. In short, until the end of the third generation, the Republic's multinational enterprises did not have enough power to occupy the Indonesian market. In the entire industrial network of the Republic, Indonesia only had one function: the origin of raw materials.

As a condition of reciprocity, what Indonesia needs to open up is the right to resource mining and export licensing rights.

In the bad year, three companies in the Republic controlled the seven largest natural rubber enterprises in Indonesia through joint ventures, capital injections, and financing methods. These seven rubber enterprises controlled the rubber plantation and rubber export share of Indonesia's paste and close to the central government.

In order to stay in the new year, Sanjian Group made efforts in Indonesia, and through mergers and acquisitions, it controlled the three largest tin mining enterprises and four bauxite mining enterprises in Indonesia, and established the "Sanjian Group Indonesia Mining Group." It controlled the tin ore irrigated in Indonesia and the bauxite mines of malaria, and obtained the right to explore mineral deposits throughout Indonesia and the right to export minerals. As a regional industrial development strategy, Sanjian Group did not open a mineral product processing enterprise in Indonesia. Instead, it set up a processing plant in Kuching, Sarawak, Malaysia, and invested in expanding the throughput capacity of Kuching Port.

In four years, Ye Hong Group entered Indonesia with a high profile. Within the year of the thug, it acquired three oil development companies and seven oil refining companies. After receiving the guarantee from the Shuishui government, it was located on the east side of Java Island, facing the oil and water across the sea, and a cross-sea bridge was connected to the construction of the largest chemical industrial park in Indonesia, mainly producing chemical fertilizers, pesticides and biological agents. Because Indonesia's population has been growing at a rate that exceeds Anhui every year, Ye Hong Group's investment quickly received huge returns. It is also true that Ye Hong Group entered the resource industry and chemical industry and soon became the third largest resource industry group in the Republic.

Hunnian. The "Huasheng Group" invested and opened by Li Chengwen is also a resource enterprise. The background of its establishment is that Sanjian Group almost monopolized the resource market of the Republic in four units, violated the "Anti-Breakdown Law". It faces the danger of being forcibly split into several companies. Therefore, at the request of Lin Yanbo, Li Chengwen invested in the establishment of the "Huasheng Group" Ye Yongji, Ye Hong Group, which also entered the resource field this year. It formed a competitive relationship with Sanjian Group, thus allowing Sanjian Group to avoid the attack of the "Anti-Saint-Breakdown Law" to enter Indonesia. Because the preconceived Sanjian Group and Shihong Group had already controlled most of the onshore resources in Indonesia, Huasheng Group focused on the sea. In that year, it signed a contract with Indonesia to develop submarine mineral resources in the Malugu Sea that year. The Malugu Sea has the largest submarine manganese nodule deposit in the world that had been proven at that time, and the potential economic development value is as high as tens of trillions of yuan.

Han Nian. As the impact of the Great Depression reached its peak and the global economy reached its bottom, the Republican enterprises that survived the storm increased their pace of external expansion. Many forces were inferior to Sanjian Group, Ye Hong Group and Huasheng Group, but companies with good potential entered Indonesia one after another. In that year alone, Republican enterprises' investment in Indonesia exceeded that of the thugs. The scale was nothing, but judging from the situation at that time, this was definitely a huge investment. You should know that when Lifeinian was in Li, Sanjian Group's investment in Indonesia was only Li billion yuan.

In the following years, the Republic's multinational enterprises penetrated almost every resource in Indonesia.

Industry.

By the early days of the Blade, all the main resource industries in Indonesia were controlled by cross-county enterprises in the Republic. The industrial chain was formed to mine in Indonesia, conduct initial processing in Malaysia, Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam. It was sold and finished in the Republic, and then sold back to Indonesia after the finished product was made. The new address of this site has been changed to: Just a gulp...8.

After Milk East, Indonesia's resources also poured into the Indian market in large quantities, playing a significant role in India's post-war reconstruction, and thus became India's largest resource importer.

The problem is here. Indonesia has always been at the bottom of the industrial chain.

According to the international division of industrial labor, the country at the bottom of the industrial chain is the country that has been recorded. More importantly, Indonesia is a poor country whose population has always maintained positive growth and ranks first in Southeast Asia. What is more interesting is that after excluding factors such as war and chaos, the more backward the economy. The faster the population growth rate, the more developed the country, the slower the population growth, and even negative growth. It can be imagined that many years of development have been damaged, except for the sudden outbreak of the population. Indonesia actually has no other progress.

By the end of the century, Indonesia became the poorest country in Southeast Asia.

No matter which district you are in, poverty is definitely the source of turmoil.
