After a brief introduction to the rules of the referendum, the indigenous residents of Inikaya began to vote.
For the first time, Wang Hongbo saw the prestige of the chiefs of the indigenous tribes.
Five villages, more than 1,200 people, all were thrown into the boxes left behind.
Wang Hongbo obviously saw many young people with hesitant and struggling expressions on their faces, wanting to throw the stones into the leaving boxes, but in the end they put the stones into the remaining boxes.
The rights of the tribal chiefs of the indigenous people are too great. The more backward the tribal chiefs in the areas, the greater their rights. Just like many family chiefs before the founding of the country, they can directly decide the life and death of their tribesmen.
Wang Hongbo frowned, this was not a good thing for Hua Yu.
However, he proposed the referendum. No matter what the result is, it must be recognized and can only be changed slowly in the future.
Those Western reporters secretly rejoiced, "Are you dumbfounded? Let's see what you do. Trouble is still to come!"
Wang Hongbo walked to the stage, and the translator just followed.
“The results of the referendum are out, it was unanimously approved, and all villages will stay on Inikaya!
On behalf of Huayu International Development Group, I respect everyone’s choice!
but!
Your current village can no longer be preserved. We will build a town for everyone on the island, and each of you will be assigned a new house!
In addition, we will also build shopping malls, hospitals, schools, banks, police stations and other public facilities in new towns!"
Shopping malls, hospitals, schools... This surprised the indigenous residents of the island.
Especially the young people were extremely pleasantly surprised.
Although Mozambique is relatively backward, Inikaya is even further behind.
However, this is the 21st century after all. Although there are not many tourists on the island, they are basically constant all year round.
These Inikayan Islanders, especially young people, are often in contact with the outside world and naturally know the benefits of hospitals and schools.
They are illiterate and cherish the opportunity to learn to read.
Not to mention hospitals.
Also, Wang Hongbo promised to build them a new house, which was also a surprise.
That's not all the surprises Wang Hongbo gave them.
"We at Huayu develop Inikaya Island and will provide you with many jobs in the future.
I don't know your customs, but if possible, all you young men and women can go to work in Huayu!
Of course, you have to pass the company’s training!”
Can I work in Huayu?
This is undoubtedly a bigger surprise than building hospitals and schools.
No matter how backward a tribe is, as long as they are not isolated from the world, they still know that money is useful.
Only when you have a job can you make money. These indigenous people still know this basic truth.
Wang Hongbo can be regarded as following the trend. Since he has decided to keep the original residents of these islands, he naturally cannot let them live as before.
Otherwise, we don’t know what kind of trouble will be caused in the future.
He didn't believe that those who were behind the scenes would only do it once.
This time, Hua Yu was very passive and could only choose to compromise. So what about next time?
Should we just give up on Inikaya Island?
Not to mention how much damage would be caused by abandoning Inikaya Island.
Once Hua Yu admits defeat, he will give up the interests of Inikaya Island.
So, what about the rest of Mozambique?
Hua Yu's investment will certainly benefit the entire Mozambique, but how many people are forced to leave their family businesses in the 50,000 square kilometers of forest land, and how many people's interests are harmed?
If, under the instigation of those conspirators, everyone followed the example of Inikaya, started a confrontation and made trouble, could Hua Yu still give up the interests of the entire Mozambique?
Therefore, compromise is not the solution to the problem.
Wang Hongbo's decision to keep the Inikaya Islanders behind was only a temporary measure.
Later, the conditions given by Wang Hongbo seemed to be favorable to the people of Inikaya.
In fact, there is a bigger plan hidden behind it.
That is to divide and draw together, and when the five tribes are brought together, some conflicts will inevitably arise among the five tribes. Moreover, when the chiefs of the five tribes gather together, their authority will inevitably be greatly affected.
Then, recruiting indigenous residents to work, providing training, building schools, and hospitals are all efforts to win over and divide them.
Through pre-job training, children can go to school and learn to read and write to further reduce the chief's influence on the tribe.
These are all conspiracies that are laid out in the open. Even though you know it is a trap, you still have to jump.
Moreover, these Inikayan Islanders would happily jump into this trap.
In the future, there will be many means to differentiate these indigenous residents, such as job creation. Not all indigenous residents on the island will be recruited, but a large number will be recruited from outside the island.
For another example, some indigenous residents will be gradually transferred away from the island through promotions and job transfers.
In short, there are more than 1,200 people who cannot make a big splash. The only headache is the people behind it.
However, Hua Yu also wanted to thank these troublemakers for taking action earlier.
Although it was a bit passive at first, it was quickly resolved.
If Hua Yu had waited until he had built the railways and highways, and then encouraged some tribes in Mozambique to cause trouble, block roads and harass others, then it would be a real headache.
Now it is a reminder to Hua Yu. It does not mean that the Mozambican government supports it, but the tribes below will definitely support it!
Don’t forget that Hua Yu is preparing to monopolize Mozambique’s timber export business. Seventy percent of Mozambique’s annual timber exports are from illegal logging, illegal logging, and 50% are smuggled.
Route out of Mozambique.
How many Mozambican vested interests will be offended by Hua Yu’s monopoly on timber export business?
These people are all locals of Mozambique, and they are all people with some local energy. If they want to cause trouble for Hua Yu, it will be too easy.
However, now that Huayu Company is prepared and can take precautions in advance, it will not be that simple if they want to cause trouble again.
"Mr. Karamzin, I think that after the small towns on the island are built, it is necessary for your government to send some officials over to manage the small towns!
Although the island belongs to Huayu, the sovereignty still belongs to the country of Mozambique. You have the right to dispatch mayors, sheriffs, and tax collectors to the small towns on Inikaya Island..." After the referendum, Wang Hongbo found Maputo City
The official Nikolay Mikhailovich Karamzin suggested to him.
"Thank you Mr. Wang for your generosity. I will give your suggestions to our government truthfully!" Nikolai Mikhainovich Karam thanked him repeatedly.
Wang Hongbo agreed that the original residents should stay on the island, which helped him solve a big problem.
Otherwise, as the official responsible for the relocation of the island residents, he will be in big trouble.
"It goes without saying that we are grateful. China and Mozambique have a profound friendship!
We are here to seek common development, not simply to plunder Mozambique’s natural resources!” Wang Hongbo said to Nikolai Mihajnović Karamzin in a righteous manner.
