Resource Tycoon Reborn
Chapter Eleven: Faith and Hope
This is a major benefit to the Cambodian economy, An Long Ning personally, and his party. Whoever can bring a prosperous and stable life to the people will get their votes!
An Longning naturally paid more attention to it and went to Sihanoukville International Airport to welcome Fang Mingyuan in person. Also coming to greet him were Song Chunjiang, the mayor of Sihanoukville, and Gao Xiwen, director of the State Secretariat of Civil Aviation of Cambodia.
Hong Dongxing and Li Xianxian, directors of the Sihanoukville Port Special Economic Zone Committee, Hu Yuanhong, director of Sihanoukville International Airport, Li Fan, representative of Deguang Electronics Group Company in the Sihanoukville Special Economic Zone, and others.
Gao Xiwen is also very excited. The State Secretariat of Civil Aviation is the government agency responsible for Cambodia’s civil aviation affairs, including all Cambodian airports and operating air traffic management systems, Qinxi Airport Group Company’s acquisition of Sihanoukville International Airport, and Kowloon Airlines
Any acquisition of Angkor Air must involve dealing with this department.
Due to Cambodia's underdeveloped economy, the level of domestic civil aviation and airport construction is naturally not comparable to that of other Southeast Asian countries. For example, Sihanoukville International Airport, although it is known as an international airport, was built in the 1960s.
It has long lagged behind the times. Not only is its equipment outdated and its buildings in dilapidated condition, but the number of passengers it can transport every year is also quite pitiful, with only tens of thousands of passengers transported annually. And Angkor Air only has three old passenger planes.
Still renting it.
After acquiring the equity of Sihanoukville International Airport, Qinxi Airport Group Company is actively preparing to expand Sihanoukville International Airport. It is said that the investment will exceed US$200 million. After Angkor Air was acquired by Kowloon Air
, although there are still three passenger planes, they are three md90 passenger planes that have only been in service for one and a half to two years. It is said that once the new routes and flights are approved and opened, three to five more passenger planes will be received one after another, even if it is just another one.
As for the three passenger planes, this is enough to make Angkor Air the largest airline in Cambodia!
It’s just that Gao Xiwen is also a little worried. Cambodia’s air transportation is currently centered on Phnom Penh and Siem Reap. Sihanoukville International Airport is not a transportation hub airport in Cambodia. How can Qinxi Airport Group invest so much money to transform and expand it?
Guaranteed profit? It’s not that he is worried about the losses that Qinxi Airport Group Company will suffer because of this, but that once these large investments fail, it will not only be the loss for the investors, but also make potential investors have doubts about Cambodia’s investment environment.
Gao Xiwen also hopes that Qinxi Airport Group Company can successfully achieve profitability, thereby attracting more foreign capital to enter the Cambodian airport industry. Of the eleven airports in Cambodia, Sihanoukville International Airport is not the only one that needs major repairs!
However, looking at the Boeing bbj2 business jet in front of him, Gao Xiwen felt that the original worries in his heart had dissipated a lot. As the director of the State Secretariat of Civil Aviation, he still knew that this Boeing bbj2 business jet was actually a Boeing 737-800.
The Boeing 737-800 passenger aircraft built on the basis of the prototype is enough to accommodate nearly 200 passengers and fly more than 5,000 kilometers. Boeing just launched it on the market in 2001, and the price is nearly 90 million US dollars.
It is no surprise that the interior decoration of the aircraft cabin is worth hundreds of millions of dollars, not counting tariffs and other expenses. And the annual operating expenses of using such a luxurious business jet will be very staggering, plus the fuel required for flight.
, and the cost of maintenance, this is undoubtedly too luxurious for Cambodians. But being able to use it as a means of transportation undoubtedly fully proves Fang Mingyuan’s financial resources!
Although An Longning does not know much about Boeing BBJ2 business jets, this does not prevent him from judging from the length and size of the fuselage. As a senior Cambodian official and a nobleman, business jets are certainly no stranger to him.
But this was the first time he had seen such a large super business jet in action. This also gave him more confidence in Fang Mingyuan's strength.
The position of Prime Minister of Cambodia is not easy to occupy. To sit in that position requires not only ability, but also the support of the military. After all, this country has only been out of the war for more than ten years. But no matter who
To sit in that position, you need someone who is good at developing the economy and managing finances, and this person must be one of the core figures of the government. An Longning really hopes that he can become the best one.
Cambodia's economy is very small, only over 10 billion US dollars, even though it has a population of more than 10 million. Fang Mingyuan owns companies that are as rich as Cambodia, and the relationship between China and Cambodia is pretty good.
He knows that Deguang Electronics Group Co., Ltd. is a well-known electronics company even if it is viewed globally.
Moreover, he also knew that Fang Mingyuan also has the largest supermarket chain company in China, which is said to be among the top five supermarket chain companies in the world. Agriculture is one of the most important pillars of the Cambodian economy.
More than 80% of the population is agricultural. Cambodia is blessed with a superior natural environment. There are nearly 7 million hectares of arable land in the country. However, due to unrest and war, even now, the land that can be used has been continuously limited.
Not even half of it was achieved.
China is also a big agricultural country and can provide guidance and technical support to Cambodia’s agricultural development in many aspects. Of course, Anlong Ning values its market most. Anlong Ning knows that due to Cambodia’s local processing and transportation capabilities, it is weak.
, a lot of Cambodian rice is bought by Vietnamese and Thai businessmen, and then sold to China as Vietnamese and Thai rice, which is also quite popular. Since Cambodia has only been freed from the war for a short time, agriculture is still recovering. In addition to products
In addition to meeting the needs of the Chinese people, there is not much surplus for export overseas. However, the Cambodian government has decided to vigorously develop agriculture and invest in the construction of agricultural infrastructure. Anlong Ning has to consider the future sales of agricultural products. And China is undoubtedly a
A good export market and a huge population can instantly digest Cambodian products without a trace!
The cabin door of the business jet opened and Fang Mingyuan walked out, followed by Lin Qidong, Sun Zhaolun and others.
Ling Changxuan introduced both parties. After learning that Fang Mingyuan was coming with the chairman of Deguang Electronics Group and the chairman of Carrefour Group, An Longning's face turned into a flower with a smile. This was simply
Whatever comes to mind comes to mind. After some polite words, An Longning and others naturally felt this way as they looked at the luxury off-road vehicle driving out of the business jet.
Sihanoukville International Airport is not a suitable place for conversation, so the group will take a bus to the Sihanoukville Port Special Economic Zone.
An Longning and Fang Mingyuan were traveling in the same car. Soon after leaving Sihanoukville International Airport, Fang Mingyuan noticed that the road leading to the Sihanoukville Special Economic Zone was not a highway. If it were placed in a developed province in the country,
, which is the level of ordinary national highways. Although there are many vehicles on the road, there are not many really good cars. Many of the cars look like they have been used for many years, and there are also a large number of motorcycles on the road. These motorcycles are
The traffic flow was a bit unscrupulous. However, because Fang Mingyuan and his convoy were accompanied by An Longning, they were naturally escorted by police at the front and rear, so the journey was smooth.
"Mr. Fang, our country's economy is still very backward. Naturally, it cannot compete with your country's road traffic." Anlong Ning sighed. As a senior official of the Cambodian government, he has also visited the capital, so he naturally knows about the Capital Airport.
There is a highway leading to the city.
"Minister An speaks very authentic English. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I almost thought I was talking to an American. Minister An doesn't have to be like this. The time for your country to restore peace is still short, and the economy is still in the recovery period.
The difficult days will eventually pass. It was only after the reform and opening up that our country's economy gradually caught up. In the 1970s and 1980s, except for a few big cities, the road traffic in most places was not necessarily better than Sihanoukville.
"Even today, there are still many areas in our country where the traffic conditions are unsatisfactory." Fang Mingyuan said with a smile, "However, your country's traffic order does need to be improved to ensure traffic safety. I have heard this more than once
Our staff dispatched to Cambodia have complained about your country’s vehicles’ serious failure to comply with traffic rules.”
An Longning couldn't help but blush slightly. Cambodia's domestic transportation is mainly based on roads and waterways. There are only two railways, and the total mileage is only six to seven hundred kilometers. More than 50,000 kilometers of roads can be said to support Cambodia's transportation.
The backbone of the road accounts for 67% of the total passenger transportation volume and 71% of the total freight transportation volume... However, due to the limited finances of the Cambodian government and limited private capital, these more than 50,000 kilometers of roads
Among them, more than 40,000 kilometers are rural roads, and only more than 5,000 kilometers of national highways can meet the standards of China's third-class highways. In urban transportation, not to mention subways, even the bus system still receives minibuses as gifts from some countries.
It has only been gradually established, and the number of taxis is not large, and the prices are unaffordable for ordinary Cambodians.
"Minister An, I am coming to your country this time. I will stay here for two days, and then I will go to Thailand and Malaysia for inspection." Fang Mingyuan said straight to the point, "The project of Deguang Electronics Group Company to build a factory in the Sihanoukville Special Economic Zone.
We hope to complete it as soon as possible. After all, we still need enough time to recruit workers and train them, and we also need to have enough technical personnel to ensure that our technical personnel can stay in your country for a long time.
To be honest, the climate here is quite difficult for our people to adapt to." Cambodia has a tropical monsoon climate, with an average annual temperature of around 30 degrees. Fang Mingyuan experienced the scorching winter as soon as he got off the plane.
"We will definitely do our best to cooperate with your staff and complete the negotiation work as soon as possible." An Longning agreed without hesitation. As the Minister of Economy and Finance, An Longning is very concerned about the basic situation of Cambodia's domestic labor force.
I know it very well. In Cambodia, the adult literacy rate is less than 70%, only 4% of adults can graduate from high school, and only 0.4% can obtain a high school degree or above, which is significantly lower than other ASEAN countries.
This reality has led to a severe shortage of professional technical workers and management talents in Cambodia, and a serious shortage of high-quality human resources, which has greatly affected the entry of various technology-based foreign investment projects and greatly offset its advantage of low labor costs.
To put it bluntly, the labor force in Cambodia has not received a good enough education. If you want to recruit qualified workers, it will take more time and energy than in other countries. Deguang Electronics Group Co., Ltd. is going to build a special economic zone in Sihanoukville.
The TV production line naturally has higher requirements for the quality of workers, and it is naturally more difficult to recruit sufficient numbers, so it is reasonable and reasonable for Fang Mingyuan to put forward such a request.
"Chairman Lin has always expressed concern about the quality of your workers. If the first phase of the project does not achieve good results, then even I cannot force Chairman Lin to agree to the subsequent expansion of production capacity." Fang Mingyuan
Blinking, he said as if you understand, "He is an elder I respect. If he is determined not to agree, I can only give in." An Longning immediately understood what Fang Mingyuan meant. They must have something to do here.
Show the best side to Lin Qidong and satisfy Lin Qidong.
"This time, I have another thing to trouble Minister An. Qinxi Airport Group Co., Ltd., Kowloon Airlines and Deguang Electronics Group Co., Ltd. plan to jointly donate two million US dollars to your country's police department to improve your country's police department.
The office conditions and case-handling equipment of the national police department, and I will also ask Minister An for help and contact him." Fang Mingyuan said with a smile. Although two million US dollars is not an astonishing sum of money for today's Chinese ministerial departments,
But he believes that it still plays a certain role in Cambodia. Moreover, more donations are not necessarily a good thing for the companies under the Fang family. From the data, we can know that the Cambodian government’s 2010 fiscal year
The budget is only US$2.2 billion!
An Longning couldn't help but feel happy. The donation of two million US dollars was introduced by himself. The people in the police department must be grateful, and it can be regarded as somewhat easing the financial constraints of the police department. He quickly smiled and said:
"Of course there is no problem. Let me first thank Mr. Fang for his generosity on behalf of the Chinese police."
“Cambodia and our country have a long-standing friendship. There are many of our compatriots, brothers and sisters living in Cambodia. We also hope that Cambodia’s economy will develop rapidly and the people’s lives will be significantly improved. Our Fang family’s investment in your country is also a response.
The call of the country." Fang Mingyuan said with a smile, "At the same time, I also hope that they can live a happier life."
