Chapter 4020

Minister trachoma looked embarrassed. If he had not stopped it, he would not have come to find Lin Feng. It is because he went to stop, but there was no effect, he had to find Lin Feng.

At first, he was looking for the police. But if the police were useful, Ethiopia would not be so chaotic. In Ethiopia, civil servants are paid between birr 200 and birr 1200. According to the current ratio of 1:20, which is between $10 and $60. When a policeman's monthly salary is between $10 and $60, you can imagine how efficient a policeman is. According to the top salary, it's only $60 a month. What can I do?

No matter how low the price in Ethiopia is, the $60 will be enough for them to live on their own for a month. As for supporting the family, there is no need to think about it. That's absolutely impossible. What's more, most police officers are paid around $30. With such a low salary, I really managed not to starve myself to death. You ask them to do their best to catch the thief, is that possible? It's just a matter of maintaining order and preventing ordinary people from making trouble. As for fighting gangs, let alone fighting them.

What's more, these gangs will give these policemen a bonus every month, so that they can sit in the police station every day, drink water, chat, and don't meddle in their own business. In this case, how can the police drive out the gangsters who occupy 50000 public toilets.

Of course, Minister Teshome still controls the transfer of the army. But if the police are bribed and corrupt, isn't the army corrupt and not bribed? The answer is the same. Ordinary soldiers in the army are very hard, so they barely have enough to eat. No one is going to buy some big soldiers. But the officers were different. Most of them were good to eat and drink. In Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia, there are many rich areas with beautiful houses, many of which belong to senior military officials. Where do they get their money?

Ethiopia's government is poor, and their money can only come from corruption. Otherwise, you don't want to buy a modern home in Addis Ababa. Therefore, it is almost impossible to mobilize the army to eradicate those gangsters. I'm afraid that as soon as the army moved, the gang members over there ran away. Of course, it's still ideal. In fact, these gangs pay taxes every month. Of course, they pay taxes not to the Ethiopian government, but to certain individuals. These individuals, of course, are government officials in Ethiopia. They are either in high positions or in gangs, forming teams within the Ethiopian government.

Minister Teshome wants to clean up the country's Mafia forces, that is, against the national officials. By then, he'll have only one end, going out of the field. Even if he has been appointed the next president, the outcome will be the same. Even if he is now president, if he wants to fight against the national government officials, I'm afraid he will only end up in the wilderness. Therefore, Minister tershome had no choice but to come to Lin Feng.

"You cops are useless?" Asked Lin Feng.

Minister trachoma gave an embarrassed smile.

"Your country is so corrupt and dark. This makes me a little afraid to invest here. " Lin Feng sighed. Of course, these words are against one's will. What Lin Feng is most afraid of is such corrupt countries. On the contrary, what Lin Feng is most afraid of is those countries with strict laws and transparent social systems. Of course, such a country is also good to do, that is to do everything in accordance with the formal procedures. But obviously, such a process is not as good as that of a corrupt country.

It's just that Lin Feng doesn't understand how Ethiopia is so poor and how the country can survive.

Minister tershome was very embarrassed about the issue of Lin Feng. This issue is the darkest inside story of the Ethiopian government. This is a completely dark anecdote. Originally, Minister trachoma didn't want to say that. But for Lin Feng, he can only say it. Otherwise, if Lin Feng withdraws, Ethiopia will lose face. Lin Feng invested in building 50000 public toilets to serve 100 million people in Ethiopia. As a result, it was occupied by gangs and became its headquarters. It's going to be laughed to death. They not only laugh at the incompetence of the Ethiopian government, but also ridicule the boundlessness of the Ethiopian Mafia.

I'm afraid it's the first time for a gangster to occupy a public toilet. In the eyes of organizations like the Mafia, this kind of behavior is probably a big joke. Therefore, Minister texiaomei can only explain to Lin Feng that he hopes Lin Feng will not really withdraw his capital.

"Mr. Lin, every year, the Ethiopian government gets nearly $1 billion in loans from the Paris Club and nearly half of the debt relief agreements. And that's what keeps Ethiopia going. " Minister tershome said in a low voice.

This is a disgraceful reason, which makes him a little shameful.

The so-called Paris Club is an international informal organization established in 1956. It is composed of 19 richest countries in the world. It provides debt arrangements for debtor and creditor countries, such as debt restructuring, debt relief and even debt cancellation. If the debt problem can not be improved after many efforts, the debtor countries are usually loaned by the International Monetary Fund and assisted by the Paris Club. From 1983 to March 2005, the Paris Club reached an agreement involving $427 billion in debt.

In 1956, Argentina warned the international community that it was unable to pay its debts. The difficulty is that there are too many banks and other creditor institutions to negotiate bilaterally. So the idea of a coordinating body came into being. Because of the emergency, a meeting was held in France. A few months after the military coup in Argentina, it quickly came to power and proposed to the new president of Argentina to go to France to discuss ways of borrowing so that his country could enter the International Monetary Fund. At that time, under the sponsorship of the French minister, the main creditor countries of Buenos Aires were present. Since then, the name of Paris Club has been preserved and the habit of meeting in the French capital has been fixed. In this way, the Paris Club was born, and an informal and simple innovation never led to the signing of international judicial treaties. It's an informal institution that everyone knows about and that poor countries deal with for a long time.

Ethiopia is one of the beneficiaries of the Paris Club. As for why the Paris Club has been subsidizing poor countries like Ethiopia and reducing debt, it is not only the humanitarian spirit, but also the maintenance of the interests of these developed countries.

First of all, although these poor countries are poor, it is because there are problems in their own government system and national development. However, China still has rich mineral resources, once fully developed, it can offset the debt. So the Paris Club is willing to borrow. Of course, there are also countries like Ethiopia, which are unable to develop at all and have more and more debts, and whose domestic assets are basically insolvent.

For such a country, the reason why the Paris Club still needs funding is Ethiopia's unique geographical location. First of all, Ethiopia has a population of nearly 100 million, which is a populous country in Africa. Once the funding is stopped, the current operation mode and state of Ethiopia's Government may lead to large-scale starvation or disease death in a short period of time. 90% of Ethiopia's population will die of famine and disease. This is an assessment made by the United Nations health, scientific and cultural organization.

Once there is such a large area of starvation or death, in Ethiopia's geographical environment, such a country known as the "suntanned place", the plague will be rampant. Ethiopia is a country rich in water resources. There are many lakes in Ethiopia. At the same time, there is a river called the open Nile that runs through several African countries. Once the plague spreads, the open Nile will no longer be called the drinking water source for human beings, and several African countries will be affected.

Most African countries are short of water, so many people will have to continue to drink the water resources of the open Nile. At that time, the plague will spread to several countries in Africa, and eventually lead to the whole Africa being ruled by the plague. In this case, Africa's economy will suffer a devastating blow. At the same time, the world economy will also be affected. Therefore, the Paris Club, knowing that Ethiopia's corruption problem is extremely serious, still has to subsidize it and reduce its debt every year.

After all, the current government is corrupt, but it can keep Ethiopians alive. It's just living, but it's enough. Otherwise, people will die and the plague will come. No one can stand it.

Lin Fengwen was surprised. There are so many strange things in this world. Also, the Paris Club, such an interesting organization, is unheard of. But it also shows how big the world is. Perhaps no one really knows how strange the world is!

"What do you want me to do? Send "wolf tooth" to the past? " Lin Feng shrugged, "I can send someone over, but the result may not be what your country can afford. There are 50000 public toilets. How many gangs are occupied? I want to take action. It's a river of blood, but it's also a howl. At that time, I will drive people away, but you accuse me of murder, or murder. Am I not wronged? "

Minister tershome had just put on a smile.

"Mr. Lin, in order to encourage foreign investors to come to Ethiopia for investment, President Georges has specially promulgated a Fengshen private property Amendment Act." Minister tershome said cunningly.
