British Civil Servant

v2 Chapter 539: electrification

It is essential to put this responsibility on Gerald Edward, who was the former High Commissioner of British Malaya. Anyway, Gerald has returned to Europe and should bravely take responsibility for the long-term stability of the British Empire. Anyway, it is not a loss. What, it is also possible to continue to be the commissioner in Germany.

And Alan Wilson's current personality is to clean up the mess left by his predecessor. Although this mess is credited by all the senior Whitehall executives, it has also been recognized by the cabinet, but the local residents of British Malaya do not know it.

The problem at hand is simple. The Malays, who are indigenous peoples, are a minority. The new commissioner who has just taken office has discovered this situation and expressed his apology for this situation.

In British-controlled newspapers, former commissioner Gerald, as Alan Wilson called him, became a bad guy.

Out of the care of the Allies during the World War, some immigrants were accepted, but the post-war reconstruction work was very hard, which eventually led to an unmanageable end.

It's not that I am incompetent, but the Chinese are too cunning. If Alan Wilson hadn't taken office, the Chinese would have continued to pour in.

In fact, the reason for the lack of influx is only because the civil war is over. Of course, the Malays do not need to know the deep-seated reason, even if it is the local indigenous people.

In the newspapers, Alan Wilson, in the name of the new commissioner, shied the responsibility, the Chinese, and the predecessor. Anyway, he just took office and is absolutely irresponsible.

But even if there is no responsibility, as the current Chief Executive of British Malaya, Alan Wilson still publicly expressed his apology, even if he has no debts in his heart.

"The Malayan Executive Office is already considering making up for the release, but Malaya has its own national conditions, and it is quite difficult to repatriate. Therefore, after research, in order to avoid the tragedy of the partition of India and Pakistan, the current situation is to stabilize the local situation. The Commissioner's Office recognizes the rights of the Malays in British Malaya and will focus on protecting the interests of the Orang Asli."

"At the same time, Indians and Chinese have given the British Empire the elements of overseas citizens. After necessary communication, the Indian government refused Indian residents to return to the country. India is independent. We can't call the door. The Chinese problem is more complicated."

In the public appeal on the second day, the issue of the Chinese was mainly mentioned, and the business sector was opened up for the Chinese to operate freely. Chinese and Indians in British Malaya would be regarded as overseas citizens. In a persuasive tone, although Chinese and Indians are dominant in numbers, but the interests of the Malays must be respected.

"The Executive Office will not sit back and watch outsiders turn against customers. I hope the MCA and the Malayan National Congress can understand this. Especially for Indian residents, it is now 1950, India has become independent, and India and the British Empire are no longer the same. The relationship between the suzerain and the special care that once served as the jewel of the British Empire will be terminated."

At this point, although the Malays are indigenous, it has become a foregone conclusion that they will become minority residents. Alan Wilson just issued a non-painful apology for this finality. As a consolation, as for the Malay open letter published in the newspaper, it is more to remind the Malays that you are a minority.

"After retreating from Japan, these Malays have swelled up, and they are always making trouble with the colonial government. Now is the time to stop." Alan Wilson, who was holding his fiancée, was in high spirits, and he looked like a bull.

"Are the Chinese reliable?" Pamela Mountbatten said with a frown, "Will there be hidden dangers?"

"The main purpose at present is to maintain the stability of Malaya in the near future. Don't think about things too far ahead." Alan Wilson replied calmly, "The first generation of Chinese immigrants, considering that their country left them There are too many hardships in the memory of the people, the mentality of seeking stability is the mainstream, and it is difficult for the first generation of Chinese immigrants to get rid of the local complex, and the hidden danger should appear in the second generation of immigrants.”

"So I started with education and tried my best to make Chinese children have a guest mentality from an early age, not to regard themselves as local people. And I will also start from this aspect in the future public opinion. But this is not enough, there is nothing. It is worth it, so the local economic construction must catch up, and with the pots and pans, it will take courage to make trouble again.”

Anyway, it can be summed up in three points: force deterrence, cultural repression, and economic development. Among them, economic development is the most important. If economic development is not done well, no matter how well the first two points are done, it is a mirror image.

"But then again, the nuclear bomb is going too slowly, just over the Arabian Sea." Alan Wilson complained instead that the sea shipping was still too slow. He was so repulsive of airplanes that he began to take airplanes to save time for the British Empire.

"Speaking of this issue, I will discuss with Mr. de Havilland and reserve a special plane for you. Otherwise, I will always be uneasy. Although you say that the resistance is lessening, this is a colony after all." Pamela Mountbatten was not on a whim, but already had such a plan. "Usually this special plane is placed in Western Australia, and I will come and pick you up when you need it."

"Okay, dear." Alan Wilson knew that his fiancée was well-intentioned, and at this time, he refused to look for trouble. "By the way, it's a coincidence to go and see how the crocodile is shamed. I put them all in Sarawak. in the river."

The rivers placed in East Malaysia are entirely due to the relatively small local population. The main part of British Malaya is the Malay Peninsula, not the island of Kalimantan, which is divided and governed by the Netherlands. Both the land fertility and the population ratio are the same. in this way.

Few of the islands that are truly isolated in the ocean have fertile land, but they are just Australia with different degrees of severity. But the Malay Peninsula is different, it is part of Eurasia.

There are several conditions that make the land fertile, glacial movement, fire eruptions, and being part of a wider continent. Australia is very sad, there is no glacial movement at all, and the volcanic eruptions are all on the nearby islands. The Australian mainland is extremely stable, and has been baptized by the salty sea breeze for hundreds of millions of years.

Don't think that the sea breeze doesn't have such a big effect. If you go to the plateau for a month by yourself, do you see that your skin is still the same as before?

"Darling, can you see the future?" Holding her fiancé's neck and kissing twice, Pamela Mountbatten suddenly stopped, "Are you taking advantage of your work to accompany me?"

"Uh, yes or no!" Alan Wilson tilted his head and said, "It depends on how you look at the problem. From a macro perspective, public affairs and private affairs have the same goals and can be regarded as one thing. Let's go to East Malaysia to do it. A private matter, but at the same time don't you want to see your kingdom?"

"Huh?" Pamela Mountbatten gave an expression I understood, "So what is your main purpose?"

"Inspecting local power resources, Malaya must be electrified before it can develop. Because of geographical factors, Malaya's power grid must be divided into two parts, which cannot be changed by anyone." Alan Wilson Speaking of which, he glanced at Pamela Mountbatten, "You don't want to see your kingdom in a wild state, do you?"

Regarding the development time of electrification in British Malaya, it was announced as a ten-year development plan. However, Alan Wilson only gave five years to the executive office's internal meeting.

You must know that the Soviet Union used the one-five-two-five five-year plan to realize electrification. He only gave it five years, and it was implemented at the same time as the development of the textile industry. It can be said that there is absolutely no room for it.

In the final analysis, per capita resources are also concerned. Of course, the per capita resources of the Soviet Union are very rich, but the power base of the Soviet Union in 1920 was worse than that of Malaya in 1950.

Of course, this is also credited to the 600,000 prisoners of war detained by British Malaya. At least three power plants in West Malaysia were built by these prisoners of war. The British Malaya Administration only needs to come up with a plan.

It's not that the former commissioner, Gerald Edward, did nothing, it's just that the British Empire now needs him to take the blame, and he has long since returned to Europe and doesn't care, so he shies the responsibility for the influx of Chinese.

Of course, the electrification of British Malaya now only covers 25% of the population. If it wasn't for the 2.5-fold increase in Malaya's population in just five years, Gerald Edward can even say that it has been completed. Most of the electrification is not weaker than post-war Japan.

But the population is no longer 4 million, it has indeed become 10 million, so the remaining 75% must be completed by Alan Wilson. Without a good foundation, no industry can be developed.

Regarding the establishment of the power grid, Alan Wilson remembers that the resources of East Malaysia actually surpass those of West Malaysia. In addition, the population is smaller than that of West Malaysia, so it is estimated that it will enter electrification earlier than West Malaysia.

It's just that there is a financial problem now, and he can't move the rubber and tin mine income that he handed over to London. So at the beginning, he definitely had to pay for it himself, but he was not going to ask Pamela Mountbatten to ask for it. Ordinarily, the financial company affiliated with Newfoundland should help him sell his shares in the US stock market, except for steel stocks.

Just before the nuclear bomb and money arrived, he accompanied his fiancée to visit East Malaysia. Baiji dolphins and Chinese alligators are placed in a tributary of the Balam River, and there is an interception net at the intersection of the main stream. Of course, before that, he had specifically inquired whether there were Malay crocodiles in this river. Otherwise, it is difficult to put it in, but it becomes the food of the local crocodiles, which is not acceptable.

After issuing a notice to investigate electrification, he accompanied his fiancée... and Princess Margaret, who appeared by surprise.

"The princess seems to have a good relationship with you recently~lightnovelpub.net~ The princess of the British Empire always runs out, isn't it appropriate? It's very indecent." Sitting on the boat, Alan Wilson whispered to Pamela Mountbatten ask.

"That's the baiji dolphin!" Princess Margaret suddenly pointed to a white dorsal fin not far away. Alan Wilson stood up directly, walked to the edge of the fence with Pamela Mountbatten, and looked at the snow-white dorsal fin. The back, one big and two small.

"Margaret can still bring good luck." Pamela Mountbatten muttered to her fiancé, but she didn't respond. She glanced in amazement, only to see liquid dripping from the man's tear trough.

This discovery terrified Pamela Mountbatten. She had never seen her fiancé like this, and she didn't dare to say a word.

When the baiji dolphin disappeared from the water, Alan Wilson squeezed his eyes, squeezed out the tears, and sat back to the seat just now with an expressionless face, and continued to talk nonchalantly about how to govern in Malaya.

"You just startled me!" Pamela Mountbatten looked away from the huge baiji dolphin sign next to the river bank. "This is the first time I've seen you like an animal."

"Oh, that's right!" Alan Wilson neither admitted nor denied that the baiji dolphin was extinct in his previous life. It is naturally difficult to calm down when he sees this creature. Although he has not expressed his emotions for a long time, he still does not. Take control.
