America's Road To Fame Chapter 554

The fact is that, although after deliberation, the PNG president is inclined to agree to the proposal and to continue negotiations for more benefits.

But in any case, it is a whole province in PNG, although the area is not too big...

However, the other party still has some scruples about the public's reaction. In the end, after deliberation, they decided to simply disclose the conditions of Atlanta and hold a parliamentary vote on this matter, and even do not rule out a referendum. You don't have to take responsibility for yourself.

Next, Erica continued to lead the team to visit Australia.

The Australian side is very concerned about Atlanta's preparation to purchase Maus Island. After all, although the cooperation with the Raupom Naval Base was blocked in PNG, they understand that Atlanta's influence is behind this.

The final result of the five-day visit is that Atlanta has reached cooperation with Australia on mining investment and energy, especially electricity.

Atlan Mining will cooperate with local companies in Australia to develop iron ore mining and smelting projects.

sp Power will build fast charging piles in Australia and license related technologies to Australian companies to expand the number of members of the Fast Charging Standard Alliance.

And Atlanta has promised that it will be open to the issue of Machus. In the future, the Laupom Naval Base on Machus Island will allow the Australian Navy to supply supplies here as a friendly country, of course, for a fee.

After all, Australia is a "close ally" of the United States. Naturally, it understands the nature of the United States. The so-called good things are said, and bad things are done. The United States has reached a tacit understanding, and they have also achieved their own goals in a certain sense, so on the issue of Mazus, they also stand on the side of Atlanta in terms of interests.

The news also became the hottest international event amid heated discussions in PNG over Atlanta's US$20 billion bid to buy the province of Machus.

At present, Papua New Guinea is overwhelmingly in favor, which is not surprising. Papua New Guinea can be said to be a relatively "young" country.

As early as 1511, the Portuguese discovered the island of New Guinea; in the second half of the 18th century, Dutch, British, and German colonists followed.

In 1906, British New Guinea was handed over to Australia for management, and it was renamed the Australian Papua Territory; German New Guinea was occupied by the Australian army in the First World War. On December 17, 1920, the League of Nations entrusted Australia to manage it. In 1942, it was occupied by Japan. In 1945 the United Nations returned it to the Australian trusteeship.

In 1949, Australia merged the former British and German parts into one administrative unit, called "Papua New Guinea Territory".

It was not until 1975 that Papua New Guinea achieved independence, so there was no national or national consciousness that had gone through a long history. Correspondingly, their citizens, and even the government, did not care too much about the territory.

That's why they were initially willing to sell the Hermione Islands to Atlanta for $300 million.

Now, in the face of a huge sum of 20 billion US dollars, it is no wonder that they are so tempted.

What is the concept of $20 billion? It is almost 1.33 times of their national gdp in the previous year. The population of Papua New Guinea is 8 million, and everyone can get 2,500 US dollars evenly, which is equivalent to their per capita national income last year...

While the PNG side was having a heated discussion, the governor of the province of Machus said that with the help of Atlanta, the economy of Machus had begun to develop rapidly. Ruth people will look forward to it very much, hoping that things will have a perfect outcome.

Obviously, at this time, they have already shown their strong will to join Atlanta. A reporter's interviews with ordinary people in the Machus province also confirmed this, and the speeches of those people were even more explicit. , and even someone has painted the blue and white cross of Atlanta on their faces to show their hearts.

In the end, the Papua New Guinea government decided to hold a referendum facing all citizens on November 1 to decide whether to sell the land in the Majus province to Atlanta. The referendum will last for 3 days, covering the current range of Papua New Guinea All citizens of the territory, if the final approval vote exceeds 66.7% of the total number of votes, the resolution will take effect, and PNG will start negotiations with Atlanta on the sale of the Majus province.

It can be clearly seen that PNG still tends to agree to sell the province of Majus to Atlanta, because on the one hand, the referendum this time also includes the province of Majus. Residents of the province voted in favor of a very high percentage.

In addition, the condition for the resolution to take effect is that the affirmative votes account for 66.7% of the voting population. This effective proportion is lower than the effective proportion of more than 70% of many other referendum conditions.

After the announcement of the upcoming referendum was announced by Papua New Guinea, the forces in Atlanta began to act, including many media in Papua New Guinea, began to carry out various propaganda to the public, in detail the Atlanta area The purchase conditions on the other side are of great benefit to the people, especially in addition to the $20 billion in land purchases, Atlanta will invest more than $30 billion in the entire PNG in the next five years.

With such a huge amount of money, once the contract for the sale of the land is reached, the income of the Papua New Guinean people will increase greatly in the next few years; but if the acquisition resolution cannot be reached, then in addition to these purchase funds and investments, Atlanta and Papua New Guinea will continue to grow. The economic exchanges between Singapore and Singapore will definitely cool down, not only will the tax be reduced due to the withdrawal of its investment in Machus, but also the current investment in Papua New Guinea may also be lost, so the result is that the income of Papua New Guinea people will soon increase. It is very likely that Papua New Guinea will even usher in a fiscal deficit.

I am afraid that since Papua New Guinea's independence ~www.mtlnovel.com~, there is no policy that can be publicized to all citizens through various channels like the conditions for buying land in Atlanta this time. It can also be seen that, Under the power of capital, the propaganda machine is activated, and the resulting public opinion will be so powerful.

The result did not disappoint Atlanta. After the end of the referendum in Papua New Guinea on November 3, after five days of counting votes, finally on November 8, the President of Papua New Guinea announced that the results of the referendum were Among the more than 6.7 million people who participated in the voting, more than 77.4% of the people voted in favor of the issue of the sale of land in the Majus province of Papua New Guinea to Atlanta, which means that the resolution is in line with the process and the result is valid , PNG will start negotiations with Atlanta on the sale of land in Majus province.

To put it bluntly, this kind of negotiation is basically just a process. At most, it is a negotiation on the details of the handover of the Majus province, the delivery of funds and the way of investment.

Since it has been decided to sell, PNG naturally wants a better price, but Atlanta is not stupid. Since the new century, there is no land sale case that can be referred to. The only reference is Asia. acquisitions by Tran.

And this time Atlan's bid is actually sincere enough, otherwise PNG would not be so excited, so the final price reached still maintains Atlan's original bid.
