Chapter 1107 New Economic Policy
The Huai cuisine mentioned by Prussia Wang, that is, Huai'an cuisine, is actually an important part of Huaiyang cuisine in the previous life. In fact, the history of the formation of the four major cuisines of the Far East does not count. Of course, this is relative to the long history of the Far Eastern Empire. After all, the four major cuisines were already formed in the Qing Dynasty.
Huai'an cuisine occupies an important position in East African domestic cuisine, mainly because the Far Eastern Empire introduced more immigrants from Huai'an. East African immigrants in the Far Eastern Empire were mainly centered on the Huaihai area, and Huai'an is known just by its name. The Huaihai area is inseparable from the relationship. Pruss Wang's father is from Huai'an Prefecture, and Pruss Wang is actually a native of East Africa.
In response to Master's teachings, Anka nodded and agreed: "I will definitely not disgrace Master. Although my cooking skills are not good, it is enough. After all, I have not planned to get involved in the high-end market from the beginning. , but start with the needs of ordinary people, this little cooking skill is enough ”
Prussia Wang: “It’s good that you have this understanding. In fact, your cooking skills are not too bad, but in a place like the Berlin Hotel, where the tiger hides the dragon, Some of them are not enough to see, so it may be more suitable for you to go out and explore..."
A week later, Anka's small restaurant was successfully registered, and his restaurant is located not far from the Second Provincial Linen Textile Factory. This is actually the residence of his parents. He heard that his son wanted to open a shop, but Anka's parents actually disagreed. However, Anka insisted on going his own way, so Anka's parents could only "support" him. As a worker in a hemp spinning factory, his mother could also help with publicity, and his parents could also help after get off work.
......
In Harare, there are many people who have the same idea as Anka. For a time, photo studios, tailor shops, restaurants, and hotels appeared in Harare. A lot of them, and even those with financial means have set up large-scale small factories.
Harare is just a microcosm of many cities in East Africa. The East African government's economic reforms this time involve many areas in the mainland, and the private economy has rapidly emerged in East Africa.
The characteristics of these private enterprises are that they are small in scale and large in number. Some of them even have no employees. The boss holds multiple hats and is actually a self-employed person.
Accompanying this is the expansion of management departments such as the East African Tax Bureau, police station, and fire department, mainly to deal with social unrest that may be caused by lack of management during the early economic transformation.
Ernst emphasized to government officials at the economic conference: "Reform must be carried out step by step, and liberalization does not mean disorder. Of course, early policies must also be loose, as long as they are not done too much. , you can turn a blind eye, but turning a blind eye does not mean doing nothing. We must learn from experience and lessons, and standardize it step by step in the future."
"No large-scale crimes will occur. Activities are our bottom line. If someone takes advantage of legal loopholes, write down the account first and patch it next time.”
Ernst is very clear that the new economic policy in East Africa at the current stage is bound to attract some speculators. You can take advantage of the opportunity, but there is nothing you can do about it.
The Soviet Union and the Far Eastern Empire would encounter similar situations in the previous life. However, the Soviet Union and the Far Eastern Empire made different choices, which led to two results. However, the early stages of economic reform in both countries can be described as the collapse of social order.
At this point, it is almost inevitable, so Ernst does not have high expectations for the East African government. As long as it maintains general stability, things can be sorted out slowly in the future.
After all, the national conditions in East Africa are different from those of the former Soviet Union or the Far Eastern Empire. East Africa has no interference from external forces, so the East African government has plenty of time to slowly adapt to social changes.
Today's world structure is diversified, and European and American countries have too much time to take care of themselves, and other countries are even less likely to provoke a big country like East Africa. Therefore, the external conditions for the implementation of the new economic policy in East Africa are far better than those of the Soviet Union and the Far Eastern Empire in the previous generation.
Ernst said: "State-owned enterprises must also be prepared. Since some markets have been liberalized, some original economic fields will no longer form monopolies. At the same time, they will face competition from private enterprises, so the next part State-owned enterprises must also make reforms to adapt to the market, especially some non-key industries. ”
Non-key industries are key industries that are not related to the lifeline of the national economy. Although the new economic policy is implemented, East African state-owned enterprises and The dominant position of collective enterprises in the East African economy cannot be replaced at all. "The State Planning Commission must also make corresponding adjustments. Non-planned economic entities can also be guided in the form of policies to promote the healthy and reasonable development of our country's industries. This does not reduce the authority, but rather affects our ability and quality. Put forward higher requirements.”
The planned economy in the previous life did not actually disappear in the Far Eastern Empire, but had an impact on the national economic development in other forms, but it only went through a long period of exploration and adjustment.
The same is true in East Africa. This new economic policy is actually paving the way for future exploration of East Africa's economic development model. It also means that the East African economy has once again begun to transform.
This kind of transformation is actually relatively unfamiliar to the East African governments including Ernst. However, Ernst has experience in his previous life, so he is still confident in the implementation of the new economic policy. .
If the economic system really becomes rigid, it will not be easy for East Africa to turn around. In that case, East Africa will only repeat the mistakes of the former Soviet Union.
Moreover, Ernst chose a relatively good time to carry out economic reforms in East Africa. During this period, smoke had begun to appear vaguely in the sky over Europe. Ernst could not confirm other places, but he was certain that the countries in the Balkan Peninsula were Ottoman's actions have begun in full swing.
So starting from next year, the attention of European countries will be focused on the Balkan Peninsula, and when the war on the Balkan Peninsula ends, a full-scale war in Europe may not be far away.
So in the next five or six years, no matter how the East African government makes domestic efforts, it is unlikely to attract interference from external forces. This will greatly ease the pressure on East Africa to implement new economic policies.
Moreover, the outbreak of war in Europe will inevitably lead to prosperity in the international market, which is also beneficial to the development of new economic policies in East Africa. After all, economic development can cover up many problems. If a war in Europe breaks out, domestic economic reforms in East Africa will be good or bad, regardless of whether they are good or bad. , can be replenished from the international market, and will not delay the economic development of East Africa.
So the next few years will be an important period of opportunity for East Africa's economic development. If the total war in Europe develops like in the previous life, East Africa will not have to worry about economic problems for at least ten years.
Even if the European War is over, European reconstruction can continue to maintain the enthusiasm of the international market in a short period of time. After the upsurge of the war economy has passed, it will not be too late for East Africa to make corresponding adjustments.
What Ernst is most worried about at this stage is that the implementation of the domestic New Economic Policy may trigger domestic social unrest. Therefore, East Africa will expand the power of the police and other administrative departments to severely crack down on illegal behaviors and adverse effects. criminal activity.
......
With the advancement of the new economic policy, it has indeed caused huge troubles to the management of East African countries. People and money died, and birds died for food. After liberalizing the economic market, illegal and criminal activities did explode in a short period of time, as the East African government had foreseen.
This is mainly due to institutional and legal deficiencies. East Africa lacks experience in market economic governance, so there are many mistakes, but overall they are still within control.
As the new economic policy advances, the benefits are obvious. First, the urban population is accelerating. Flexible employment allows more rural people to work in cities. Although there is no establishment, there is no problem in supporting themselves. At the same time, the types of commodities on the market have increased significantly. , although most of them are products from small workshops, and the lack of supervision has also caused uneven quality, it is undeniable that the types of products have indeed increased, and the quality of the products is good or bad, and it cannot be generalized.
Finally, under the East African New Economic Policy, investments from Austria, Germany, France, the United States, and the United Kingdom have increased significantly in East Africa, which has greatly eased the financial pressure on the East African government. Among them, British investment has increased along with the reconciliation of relations between the two countries. , rising rapidly and becoming one of the important sources of foreign investment.
