MTL - Rebirth: Fight For Life-Chapter 734 Crisis in Port Moresby
Chapter 734 The Crisis in Port Moresby
Port Moresby, standing in the building looking at the crowd gathered in the street outside the window, Somare's face sinks like water.
At this moment, he is waiting for the arrival of important figures in various departments.
That's how it happened.
Even if he had taken precautions earlier, he could not prevent every ordinary person.
Even those who showed no signs of it before.
There was a sound from the door, Somare turned his head, and people began to enter the office one after another.
The people who were notified, all came in a while.
Everyone sat in the room in silence, waiting for Somare to speak. And Somare didn't say anything first, just looked at them one by one.
He was thinking: Among them, is there someone who is also moving their minds.
The long silence made the other people in the room gradually feel a little uncomfortable.
Somare finally spoke: "Who will tell me why this happened?"
The topic is heavy, like accountability, but it’s better than being silent all the time. Most looked at Woods, who was in charge of forestry.
"The policy and intensity of combating illegal logging have not changed. This time, it was an accident."
"It hasn't changed?" Somare asked, "So, your people have been setting up additional thresholds and asking for extra fees for logging licenses?"
"This kind of thing is just an example, it has been investigated internally..." Woods felt bitter, how could such a thing be avoided?
This early bird is not easy to take, but who made the fuse appear here?
Somare knew it was no wonder he knew more than they did. He asked again: "You know what I'm asking. Why is there a murder?"
Woods complained: "The case is still under investigation, and there must be something behind it. It is said that a logging permit triggered a vendetta, how is that possible? Seust had a relationship with the business owner and found it in their home. It’s understandable that Seust’s fingerprints were obtained. But how could Seust prepare to kill him because he took his money, didn’t get things done, and was threatened?”
Somare stared at him: "How is it possible? People standing on the street now won't believe these words!"
He turned to look at another big man: "You haven't made any progress yet?"
"If it weren't for Schuster, then the method would be extremely clean. Besides, apart from Schuster, there is really no one else who has such a motive."
Somare reluctantly fell silent again. The technique is extremely clean... So, what Gu Song said might be true?
He also did not expect that this time he was going to relax the restrictions on the issuance of logging licenses, but it caused trouble.
Licenses like this, which will bring long-term benefits, have been issued to people who are friendly to themselves in the past.
With Gu Song's warning, he also began to try to release some kindness to some neutral or even opposing forces.
As a result, people on my side lost their qualifications because they sent money in advance, but they stabbed such a thing out.
The way was stabbed was a suicide note prepared in advance provided by his family relatives to the media after he was assassinated.
Everything is very natural, it seems that Schuster received the money, and after he failed to do anything, he was afraid that things would be exposed and took risks under his threat.
And the business owner seemed to know Schuster very well and knew that he might be in danger, so he prepared a suicide note in advance.
The family burst into tears to the media, telling the story that the family is in financial crisis, and everything depends on getting permission this time, so as to get the support of the capital chain and avoid bankruptcy.
Then it's incredible that the emotions were rendered so powerfully in a short period of time. It seems that overnight, all kinds of neutral and opposing forces, all kinds of people, because of corrupt and arrogant governance, as well as all kinds of accusations about environmental protection, betrayal of national resources, etc., have surged up.
"Sir, obviously this is for this year's general election."
"No matter what the reason is, now, we need to come up with a solution." Somare said in a calm voice, "This is not a simple protest demonstration. At this point in time, it is important to keep in touch with international events. There is a judgment, so I won’t break it. So, what should I do now?”
This is a topic completely unfamiliar to them, and the people in the room are talking a lot.
Listen and listen, he was rather distracted.
The sound from outside came louder and louder.
"Drive away foreigners who plunder resources!"
"No machines, hire more people!"
"Against Corruption!"
"Stop deforestation, the bird of paradise needs a home!"
“…”
Somare was a little upset to hear it, stopped their discussion, and said flatly: "The pioneers scattered the crowd. Let the reporters increase the publicity, the case is being heard, and Schuster's handling is being investigated and carried out."
ordered some plans that he thought would be effective, and Somare let them go out to work.
When he was the only one left in the room, he thought for a long time, and then dialed Gu Song.
"Mr. Gu, do you know what happened here in Port Moresby?"
"What's up?"
Soma Lei was a little unconvinced in his heart, didn't Gu Song monitor this side all the time? But he still talked about the demonstrations outside now.
Yanjing, Gu Song really didn't stare there all the time.
He digested the information introduced by Somare, and then said: "It seems that he really did it... Mr. Isaac, what are you calling to ask?"
"I would like to ask... your opinion on how to deal with this situation. After all, you also have a critical investment here, and the way to obtain information is also incredible..."
"I really haven't done in-depth research on the specific situation of Papua New Guinea. However, since they have started, the ultimate goal must be directed at you, a government that is friendly to HSDA. I can only say that it is not now. When you are afraid of all kinds of public opinions, when you are bound by those false statements."
"The consequences of toughness...maybe blockades and sanctions." Somare hesitated, "Papua New Guinea's development has been obvious to all over the years. As long as people and plans with ulterior motives are exposed, people will naturally understand who is hindering their lives. improvement.”
Gu Song smiled and said: "Mr. Isaac, the important thing is not these, the important thing is the comparison, and the hope outlined by some people. As long as there is the first voice of public opposition, there will be countless unwilling people who think Respond. As long as the cost of responding makes them feel that it is worthwhile, more and more people will respond. You must know that no matter how much you have done, it is impossible to exceed what others have promised. As for whether these promises can be fulfilled, then After all, it is in the future. People always feel that the status quo can be better, and the future will definitely be better.”
Somare still said: "Can't you have evidence for me?"
"It's useless. I can try to find out if there is any evidence. But I think, even if there is, it's useless, maybe it will have the opposite effect." Gu Song said, "This is not only happened in Papua New Guinea. This is a worldwide ideological battle. Unfortunately, in the past few decades, the hegemons of the discourse power have already exported their thoughts and cultures to the world. You must know that even in my country, there are also Too many people feel they deserve the 'best' life in the best system."
Somare was silent for a while, then said, "But we need to face reality."
Gu Song said: "This is a really smart and mature idea. Yes, we need to face reality. The reality now is that too many people who think they are smart will be mobilized to become blind puppets to bury their own hands. Life. In their dictionary, compromise is evil, either the best or the worst, and waiting is surrender. You can never satisfy them in front of the crowd who want to be the best tomorrow.”
"...I didn't expect that Mr. Gu was actually so pessimistic."
Gu Song said with a smile: "How can this be pessimistic? It's just objective. But then again, Mr. Isaac, the test is coming, I wish you all to deal with it well. In addition, Mr. Isaac needs to protect the safety of our industry."
"Don't worry, Mr. Gu." Somare felt that in Port Moresby, this control was nothing to worry about.
hung up the phone, but Gu Song was a little worried.
According to his intuition, perhaps in this time and space, the real center of this storm will be in Port Moresby.
If that was the case, he thought Somare would not be able to handle it.
After thinking quietly for a while, he felt that he needed to devote part of his energy to dealing with these things.
A phone call came to Jian Yushu.
"How much raw material is in stock at the factory in Port Moresby?"
"According to your previous arrangement, you have prepared enough for half a year. What's wrong?"
"What about the power supply?"
Jian Yushu was a little nervous when he asked: "The power supply will not be cut off? The power plant is not in the factory, there is no way to guarantee it."
Gu Song thought for a while and said, "It may not be a problem for the time being, but just in case, the security force can be transferred from Flint Island. For the rest, I'll make preparations."
"I see."
Gu Song hung up the phone and continued to think.
This time, they will definitely be instigating the local opposition forces and the public to take action. If the local people in Papua New Guinea attack the alloy smelting plant, the nano-carbon material raw material processing plant and the thermal power plant that supplies power, what will Gu Song do?
