Minister Teshome looked embarrassed. If he had not stopped it, he would not have come to Lin Feng. It was precisely because he tried to stop it but it had no effect that he had to come to Lin Feng.

Initially, he was looking for the police. But if the police were useful, Ethiopia would not be so chaotic. In Ethiopia, the salary of civil servants is between 200 birr and 1,200 birr. Based on the current ratio of 1:20, that is 10

Between US$10 and US$60. When a police officer’s monthly salary is between US$10 and US$60, you can imagine how efficient the police are. Calculated based on the maximum salary, it is only US$60 per month. This can

what?

No matter how low prices are in Ethiopia, these 60 US dollars are enough for them to barely feed themselves for a month. As for supporting their families, don’t think too much about it. That is absolutely impossible. What’s more, the salary of most policemen is only 30

Around US$. With such a low salary, you can barely keep yourself from starving to death. Is it possible for you to ask them to work hard to catch thieves? It just barely maintains order and prevents ordinary people from causing trouble. As for, go and

There is no need to talk about gang fights.

What's more, these gangs will give these policemen a benefit every month, so that these policemen can sit in the police station every day, drink water, chat, and not go out to mind their own business. In this case, how can the police entrench these policemen?

Gangsters were kicked out of 50,000 public toilets.

Of course, Minister Teshome still controls the mobilization of the army. But the police were bribed and corrupted. Is the army not corrupt or bribed? The answer is the same. Ordinary soldiers in the army are very miserable. They can barely do it.

It’s just enough to eat. No one will buy some big soldiers. But the officers are different. Most of them are well fed and fed. In Addis Ababa, the capital of Ethiopia, there are many wealthy areas with well-built houses.

Very beautiful, many of them belong to high-ranking military officials. Where do they get their money?

The Ethiopian government is very poor, and their money can only come from corruption. Otherwise, you won't be able to buy a modern residence in Addis Ababa. Therefore, it is almost impossible to mobilize the army to eradicate those gangsters. I'm afraid here

As soon as the army moved, the gangsters there fled after hearing the news. Of course, this is still an ideal situation. In fact, these gangsters have to pay taxes every month. Of course, the person they pay taxes is not the Ethiopian government, but

They are certain individuals. And these individuals are naturally Ethiopian government officials. They either hold high positions or form cliques, forming teams within the Ethiopian government.

Minister Teshome wants to clean up the gangs in the country, and that is to go against the officials across the country. At that time, he will only have one end, to go out. Even if he has been designated as the next president, the end will be the same. Even if he is now

President, if he wants to confront government officials across the country, I'm afraid he will have no choice but to step down. Therefore, Minister Teshome has no choice but to come to Lin Feng.

"Are your police so useless?" Lin Feng asked.

Minister Teshome smiled awkwardly.

"Your country is so corrupt and dark. This makes me a little afraid of investing here." Lin Feng sighed. Of course, he said this against his will. What Lin Feng is least afraid of is this kind of corrupt country.

, On the contrary, what Lin Feng is most afraid of are those countries with strict laws and transparent social systems. Of course, such countries are also easy to do, that is, everything must be done in accordance with formal procedures. But obviously there is no such process.

Corrupt countries are good.

It's just that Lin Feng is a little confused about how the country in Ethiopia can maintain itself if it is so poor.

Minister Teshome was very embarrassed about Lin Feng's question. This question pointed directly at the darkest inside story of the Ethiopian government. This was a completely shameful and dark anecdote. Originally, Minister Teshome did not want to talk about it. But for Lin Feng,

Feng, but he could only say it. Otherwise, if Lin Feng withdraws his investment, Ethiopia will be embarrassed. Lin Feng invested in building 50,000 public toilets to serve Ethiopia's 100 million people. As a result, they were occupied by gangs and became their headquarters. This is really

I want to be laughed to death by the outside world. I am not only laughing at the incompetence of the Ethiopian government for not being able to solve the gangs, but also laughing at the unlimited limits of the Ethiopian gangs.

It was probably the first time that a dignified gangster actually occupied a public toilet. In the eyes of an organization like the Mafia, this kind of behavior was probably a big joke. Therefore, Minister Teshome could only explain to Lin Feng,

I hope Lin Feng will not really withdraw his capital.

"Mr. Lin, the Ethiopian government can obtain nearly 1 billion US dollars in loans from the Paris Club every year and nearly half of the debt relief agreement. This is the reason why Ethiopia has been able to maintain its existence." Minister Teshome said in a low voice.

This reason is very embarrassing and makes him a bit shameful.

The so-called Paris Club is an international informal organization founded in 1956. It is currently composed of 19 of the world's richest countries and specializes in providing debt arrangements, such as debt restructuring, debt forgiveness, and even debt cancellation, for debtor and creditor countries.

If the debt problem cannot be improved after repeated efforts, the indebted country usually borrows from the International Monetary Fund and assists the Paris Club. From 1983 to March 2005, the agreements reached by the Paris Club involved a debt amount of US$427 billion.

In 1956, Argentina issued a warning to the international community: it was no longer able to repay the debts it owed. The difficulty lay in the fact that there were too many banks and other creditor institutions demanding debt, making it impossible to conduct bilateral negotiations. So the idea of ​​establishing a coordinating agency arose.

Due to the emergency, a meeting was convened 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 borrowing methods so that his country could enter the International Monetary Fund.

At that time, with the sponsorship of the French minister, the main creditor countries of Buenos Aires were present. From then on, the name of the Paris Club was retained, and the habit of meeting in the French capital was fixed. The Paris Club was born in this insignificant way,

A simple informal innovation never leads to an international judicial treaty. An institution established informally, everyone knows about it, and poor countries have long dealt with it.

Ethiopia is one of the countries that has beneficiary of the Paris Club. As for why the Paris Club has been funding poor countries like Ethiopia and also exempted and exempted debts, in addition to the humanitarian spirit, it is also about maintaining the interests of these developed countries.

First of all, although these poor countries are poor, it is because they have problems with their own government systems and national development. However, they still have rich mineral resources in the country. Once they are all developed, they can offset their debts. Therefore,

The Paris Club is willing to borrow money. Of course, there are also countries like Ethiopia that are simply unable to develop, and their debts are increasing, and the country is simply insolvent.

Why does the Paris Club continue to fund such a country? The reason 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 funding is stopped, Ethiopia’s current government operation model will

As well as the situation, I am afraid that in a short period of time, widespread starvation or death from disease will occur across the country. 90% of Ethiopia’s population will die from 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 disease death, considering the geographical environment of Ethiopia, a country known as a "sunburnt place", the plague will be rampant. And Ethiopia is a country with very rich water resources.

The country is densely covered with lakes. At the same time, there is also a Kai Nile River that runs through several African countries. Once the plague spreads, the Kai Nile River will no longer be a source of drinkable water for humans, and several African countries will be affected.

Most countries in Africa are short of water, so many people will inevitably have to continue drinking water from the Nile River. At that time, the plague will spread to several African countries, and eventually the entire Africa will be ruled by the plague. This situation

Africa's economy will suffer a devastating blow. At the same time, the world's economy will also be affected. Therefore, even though the Paris Club knows that Ethiopia's corruption problem is extremely serious, it still has to fund it and reduce its debt every year.

.

After all, although the current government is corrupt, it can keep Ethiopians alive. Although it is just alive, it is enough. Otherwise, everyone will die, and no one will be able to bear the plague.

Lin Feng was astonished after hearing this. This world is really full of strange things. Also, such an interesting organization as the Paris Club is really unheard of. But this also shows that this world is so big. Maybe no one really knows

Clearly, how strange this world is!

"Then what do you want me to do? Send 'Langya' there?" Lin Feng shrugged, "I can send people there, but the result may not be the 50,000 public toilets your country can afford. How many occupancies are there?

Gang, if I want to take action, not only will there be rivers of blood, but there will also be a lot of mourning. At that time, I will drive the people away, but you accuse me of massacre or murder, wouldn’t I be unjust? "

Minister Teshome just now showed a smile.
