Chapter 1282 Study Camp
As for the issue of civilizing immigrants, the East African government has mastered a standardized process, which now mainly applies to East African overseas colonies.
Immigration Study Camp in Davao City.
"I am your instructor Betzdorf. In the coming days, I will tell you in Russian the rules and laws you should abide by in the Mindanao colony, as well as the naturalization requirements."
"Coming here does not mean that you can relax. If you cannot obtain local household registration, your status will always be inferior to others. Don't think I am alarmist."
"In Mindanao, there are still many indigenous people who have not completed naturalization. They will do the hardest jobs and earn the lowest wages."
"The most important thing for naturalizing in Mindanao is to master standard German. In Mindanao Many Slavs have already joined in this way The big family in Mindanao.”
Of course, Betzdorf obviously did not mention the East African nationality, but only the regional citizenship of Mindanao. This situation widely exists in the colonies in East Africa. After all, it is really like Lanfang overseas. This is the only example of an overseas territory joining the East African administrative system like a province.
There is nothing to say about this. Just like the vast British colonies, the British cannot treat the colonies as native lands.
Betzdorf said: "In Mindanao, a planned economy is fully implemented. What is a planned economy? Simply put, you must do what the government asks you to do, and you cannot do what is prohibited. There are no regulations. You must also apply upwards and not make your own decisions.”
"There is a large amount of undeveloped land in Mindanao, so we must unite all efforts to develop the local area and build this place as your new home."
"When the Mindanao colony develops to a certain stage, do you want to toss in the land? Tossing. "
Having said that, even if Mindanao really develops in the future, it is obvious that things that violate laws and regulations will not be done.
Betzdorf continued: "Of course, to make it easier for you to understand, you can regard the current management of the Mindanao colony as military management."
"Of course, we don't need to When you fight, you only need to complete production work, which in Mindanao includes logging, construction, land reclamation, mining and other mainstream work.”
"The allocation of materials is fully and vertically managed by the government, including your food, clothing, housing and transportation, which are completely borne by the government. While enjoying these benefits, you will naturally have to pay a price until you are naturalized."
"After naturalization, you can Citizens like Davao City today are more free to choose their own careers and control their own time.”
Of course, this also means that East Africa will no longer bear their minimum living security needs at that time, after all. The price of freedom is self-reliance.
At first glance, the former seems good, but based on the actual situation of the two, most people will choose the latter after a while.
Then Betzdorf began to tell the group of Slavs about other things that needed to be paid attention to in Mindanao.
There are three immigrant study camps in Davao City, mainly targeting three groups, one is mainly Slavic immigrants, one is mainly immigrants from the Far Eastern Empire, and the last one is other immigrant types.
If the Germans choose to immigrate here, they obviously do not need to join the study camp. Of course, there are not many Germans immigrating to East Africa at present, and the Germans immigrating to the East African colonies are even rarer.
The three study camps in Davao City maintain a student population of about six to seven thousand people all year round, which is not included in the population of Davao City.
Most of them will not stay long in Davao City. Davao City is a transit point. Generally, within two months, these immigrants will be redistributed to various places in the Mindanao colony, and most of them will Sometimes, a group of people may be replaced in a week or two.
At the Davao City study camp, the main teaching is language, rules, and helping these immigrants initially adapt to the local climate.
In fact, being acclimatized is the biggest problem faced by immigrants, and many immigrants lose their lives due to this reason every year.
The good news is that East Africa is the only powerful country in the tropics and the country with the most experience and technology in dealing with tropical diseases and climate, so the immigration attrition rate has been maintained within a range acceptable to the East African government.
In fact, in the Nanyang colonies, the people most likely to die were the Slavs. After all, the climate contrast between Nanyang and the places where the Slavs lived was completely opposite. Not all Slavs can't stand this climate. For example, Yugoslavia in the Balkans has much better adaptability.
……
evening.
In the cafeteria of the study camp.
“This is rice, an East African food. It tastes weird, but such a big bowl is really solid and friendly to the teeth.” Kumoyev held up a rice spoon. Said a spoonful of rice.
In Nanyang, East Africa is not equipped with chopsticks as tableware like the original mainland, at least in the non-Far Eastern Empire immigrant study camps.
This can also be seen from East Africa's laxity in some details in its overseas colonies.
Lebulia said: "I heard from my seniors that in the future, this kind of rice will be the daily food in Mindanao."
"Because in Mindanao, rice is the only food crop that can be grown on a large scale. Here It is not suitable for growing wheat, barley and other crops. ”
In this era, Ukraine, as a large granary of Tsarist Russia, grew more than 80% of Russia’s wheat, as well as a large amount of barley, sugar beet and other crops.
So the staple food of Ukrainians is generally wheat and barley, but even so, Ukrainians live on the line of food and clothing.
After all, as an agricultural country, wheat exports accounted for a large part of Tsarist Russia's finances. In a relatively backward country like Tsarist Russia, land is basically concentrated in the hands of large landowners and nobles.
After all, some high-quality land is being snatched by people. From this point of view, farmers in Russia's Siberian region may have a better life than Ukrainians, provided that they have to overcome blocked transportation and a more difficult environment.
As for Mindanao, the situation here has no reference in the entire Russian territory, regardless of language, customs, food, etc.
Kumoyev said: "As long as it can fill the stomach, no matter what kind of food is accepted, and East Africans are very kind."
"In addition to rice, they also prepared meat and fruits. , this should be sea fish, there are many fishing boats in Davao, this should be their main Source of meat. In Ukraine, you rarely eat meat, but there are more fish bones.”
Lebulia said: “It’s good to eat some, and you want to choose sea fish! There are much fewer spines than freshwater fish, so it’s good to get so much fish meat.”
"There are also bananas and this kind of fruit that I don't know. Bananas are rare in Russia. I have only heard of them before, but in Davao City, bananas are everywhere."
Lebulia The unfamiliar fruit mentioned is actually cut pineapple pieces. There are many orchards in Davao City, and these fruits are basically very cheap.
Of course, for the lower class people living in Russia, they most likely do not know the various local fruits.
Many Slavs have never even seen a banana. Although Russia was once a major banana importer in East Africa, bananas are obviously not something ordinary Russians can afford.
If it is a country such as Germany, or an economically developed area in Russia, people there have different views.
Even if they have not seen the real thing, they can make up for this through education. For example, in a country like Germany that implements comprehensive compulsory education, if you look for any German, their knowledge will be much better than most people in the world.
For these fruits, Kumoyev only replied: "It's so sweet!"
In fact, there are many fruits in Ukraine, apples, cherries, etc. are relatively common, but This is the first time they have come into contact with fruits in the tropics. Coupled with the recent difficult life, they will naturally have more subjective feelings.
