British Civil Servant

v2 Chapter 536: Trying your best is probably not enough!

The task of meeting with the Malayan National Congress was handed over to the incoming West Malaysia Commissioner. Alan Wilson discussed the development plan with the original civil servants in Malaya. In fact, we are not strangers to each other. Many local officials arrived in Malaya directly after leaving British India.

There are even a very small number of people who still have industries in India, but as time goes by, there will definitely be fewer and fewer.

At present, Malaya has a population of nearly 10 million and an area of ​​nearly 500,000 square kilometers. There are two pillar industries, tin ore and rubber. In addition to population and population quality, it should be said that Malaya is strong in other aspects. Does Japan have a Maoist pillar industry? Honestly wait for the United States to transfer the textile industry to start.

The island of Japan essentially does not have any basic industries that can be developed under control. There are two in Malaya and none in Japan. Otherwise, talk to the Soviet Red Army about going to Hokkaido to farm?

After losing Hokkaido, Japan's low food self-sufficiency rate became even lower.

Even in terms of infrastructure, Malaya is stronger. After all, even now, the population of Malaya is only 10 million, maybe less. The labor force of the 600,000 Japanese Southern Army was previously withheld to make up for the damage caused by the war in Malaya.

This is the essence of 600,000 well-trained Japanese troops. It not only repaired the damaged parts of British Malaya, but also repaired a lot of facilities. This time, the airport where Alan Wilson landed can be said to be in the whole Asia is on top.

The military bases, ports and roads and bridges have all been renovated to a certain extent. I can't say that they are much stronger than those of the Japanese mainland, but they are definitely not bad. The population of the two sides is ten times worse.

If there were 6 million soldiers in Japan who continued to build for free, it is estimated that they would have recovered from the strategic bombing of the United States long ago. There is no need for the United States to invest more than 1 billion to help Japan recover.

The tin mining industry and the rubber industry are not industries that rely too much on talents, and it is relatively easy to start. Then the result of the meeting is actually very easy to draw, expand the export of tin ore and rubber industry, and use all means.

"It's been five years since the war ended, and the reconstruction of Europe is accelerating." Alan Wilson said to these familiar and unfamiliar officials, "With a population of 10 million, there is no population pressure in Malaya. The mining intensity must be increased. In five years, the population of Malaya has increased from 4 million to 10 million, an increase of 2.5 times. These extra people must be motivated. Not just farming!”

"Malaya is about to undergo currency reform. I have no special reminder. The entire British Malaya implements a tax rate. It is not that you will not have the opportunity to improve your life, but it must be after the local supply and local construction are satisfied. To you. Do you understand?"

"Understood, Commissioner!" Alan Wilson's voice was uniform.

"Okay, then let's discuss the establishment of the Tin Mine Development Committee and the Rubber Export Committee." Alan Wilson nodded with satisfaction, "The two committees are affiliated with the Overseas Assets Committee in London, and they are to cooperate with other colonies. It is an important part of the role of public servants of the empire. I am in charge at present, and I will be handed over to me for the monthly industry report. I hope to triple the export of tin mines in one year.”

Alan Wilson reminded the civil servants present the importance of this matter. After all, this is not a small problem, there are nearly 20 colonial commissioners to support the development of Malaya. No one is an internationalist, and Malaya's development must be rewarded.

"I'm afraid the number of exits doubled in one year?" A small question sounded from the conference room.

"I'm afraid of what? I'm afraid of making money? In principle, of course we hope that the water will continue to flow, but when is it now? Even if it is destructive mining, we must catch the things first." Alan Wilson said calmly, " Ok, deal."

After the meeting, the Malayan Commissioner's Office issued regulations on promoting import and export, and carried out in-depth special actions for centralized rectification of enterprise-related charges within Malaya. The administrative charges for import and export links established in accordance with laws and regulations, and the operating service charges set by the colonial government or guided prices shall be managed by a catalogue list, and those not included in the list shall be investigated and punished as arbitrary charges.

Increase the supervision and inspection of the implementation of the cancellation of charging items, and form a long-term mechanism for foreign trade enterprises to loosen their ties and reduce the burden to prevent the problem of arbitrary charging from rebounding.

All states and departments should further raise awareness, pay more attention to foreign trade work, strengthen the leadership of commissioners, take into account the overall situation, and enhance the initiative, pertinence and effectiveness of work. All regions should take the initiative to act in accordance with the actual situation, and take multiple measures to promote the stable growth, transformation and upgrading of foreign trade in the region.

"One thing must be explained, dear colleagues, take out some of your abundant private life time. By the end of the year, I will adjust the position according to the data. Is the last one? I may arrange that colleague to go to Christmas Island to mine."

Alan Wilson stood up and said, "Now adjourn the meeting! The air routes of the Malayan colony will be doubled in five years. I believe you will not be inconvenient to report your work."

When Alyssa came, the meeting was over, and she came to talk about the meeting of the Malayan National Congress. Bringing Indian immigrants to express a loyal zeal.

"So good to talk after being marginalized? You didn't ask them if they want to go to India? Can I send them back?" Alan Wilson smiled indifferently, "As for Nehru's request for the Andaman Islands, they have What's your opinion?"

"They are willing to send a telegram to show that the Andaman Islands have been an inseparable part of Malaya since ancient times." Alice covered her mouth and snickered, "Then I will replace you to inspect the tin mining work."

"Pay attention to safety, this is a colony after all." Alan Wilson nodded, then pulled out a body armor from the office and said, "Don't think it's too heavy to wear, although the law and order has improved a lot compared to Gerrard's time. But it's better to be careful. "

"Thank you, my boss." Alice took the body armor directly and said with a bright smile, "It's really heavy protection, very sincere."

It took a few days to adjust the work that had just arrived in Malaya. Allen Wilson asked Lin Lianyu to come again and directly stated his purpose, "The Chinese must be literate immediately, rubber and mining are not long-term. The basic quality of Japanese citizens is far superior to that of the Chinese. Although it is useless now, and there are Japanese women who come to Malaya to sell themselves, once the processing industry starts, this advantage will be revealed. Although compared with the Japanese, Malaya's The basic conditions are better. Compared with Japan alone, it is vast and sparsely populated, so there will not be too much pressure on living, but the basic natural resources cannot be eaten for a lifetime. This is not Australia.”

"I want the next generation of Chinese to be all literate and become qualified industrial workers." Under Lin Lianyu's astonished gaze, Alan Wilson took out a simplified word list, "Mr. Lin, can you do this well? If this is not done well, it may make us in the UK question your reliability."

Simplification is one of the main trends in the development of Chinese characters. The guiding ideology of simplification is "conventional" and "steady progress". The principle of simplification is to keep the vulgar simple. The main content of simplification is to reduce the number of words and reduce strokes. The main problem of traditional Chinese characters is complexity and disorder, the complicated finger has a lot of strokes, and the random finger has many different forms. These two problems have brought inconvenience to the learning and application of Chinese characters. The solution is to simplify and organize them.

"This? Of course I have no problem." Lin Lianyu looked at the dense catalog of simplified characters and exclaimed, "I didn't expect Lord Zhongtang to be so familiar with our characters."

"Aren't you familiar with a Chinese name like Zhongtang?" Alan Wilson said with satisfaction after listening to Lin Lianyu's answer, "Very well, you are really reliable, of course I don't know the specifics, but I hope that even if you are an adult, It is also necessary to understand everyday words. As for the children growing up, there must be barrier-free communication, and the scope of promotion is the entire West Malaysia region.”

Why is it in West Malaysia, because East Malaysia wants to promote English education and create a gap between the eastern and western parts of British Malaya.

"I'll try my best!" Lin Lianyu held the catalogue in simplified characters. He now thinks that the new commissioner is really a good person, and Chinese education is what he has always insisted on.

"Do your best? Maybe it's not enough!" Alan Wilson took a deep look at the other party, "It must be done. The plan for the development of Malaya~lightnovelpub.net~ must be supported by a reliable ethnic group. It’s not enough just to be diligent. It needs to be nurtured for the next stage of work.”

"One thing I have to explain in advance, the native sent me here to ensure the stability and development of Malaya, and I have already made the mental preparation for what I can't do. I have two ideas, once the colonial rule cannot be maintained, I will Another way to repatriate all the Chinese is to carry out partition. Partition with Malays as the center of power. Once partition starts, it will be the Chinese who will suffer, because you have your own country. This is the land of the Malays, but the Chinese are not It was introduced to maintain colonial rule. Like many Indians in the colonies, after staying for a long time, they really think this is their own place. Malays are not so forgetful.”

"Of course, before these two methods, I have to do some other work. As we all know, Malaya is a coastal colony, and many cities are seaside cities. At present, the British Empire still has many battleships, which is very suitable for replicating the glory of shelling Jakarta. The story, the battleship that bombed Jakarta, was also made by the British."

"Mr. Allen, you should know that colonial rule is unpopular and should not continue to persist." Lin Lianyu said cautiously.

"That's right, so all the Chinese must be repatriated before leaving. The Chinese are also part of the colonial rule." Alan Wilson said with a smile, "I don't think so, it's the Malays who think so."
