The Wealth Empire Crossing the Hong Kong

Chapter 759 Layout of Chiang Rai
As the northern border province of Thailand, Chiang Rai has no large mineral resources and no profound historical background. Compared with Chiang Mai in the north, Chiang Rai can be said to be a remote place.

Although Donghua Association intends to increase investment in Chiang Rai in recent years, compared with Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Rayong and other places in terms of economic development, there is still a huge gap.

In order to further accelerate the development of Chiang Rai and expand the influence of Tung Wah Club in the northern Thailand market, Li Jianhui once again invested heavily in Chiang Rai.

On the morning of the second day after returning to downtown Chiang Rai from Maesle Village, Li Jianhui, Guan Jiahui and many senior officials from the Xinjian Department held talks with many senior government officials from Chiang Rai Province and Chiang Rai City.

Sisuphorn, governor of Chiang Mai, has a very close relationship with the Tung Wah Association. It can be said that the support of the Tung Wah Association is inseparable for this person to be able to take this position.

Thinking back a few years ago, the urban population of Chiang Mai was only about [-]. Because the Tung Wah Association has invested in multiple industries and a large amount of capital, the current urban population is close to [-].

And as a small city, Chiang Rai has its own basketball stadium and sports center, as well as ABA and PFLA clubs, because of the layout and care of Donghua Club.

This time, Li Jianhui once again brought major projects to him, including Wheelock Square with an investment of [-] billion Hong Kong dollars, Donghua Clothing Trade City with an investment of [-] million Hong Kong dollars, and a fruit and vegetable wholesale market with an investment of [-] million Hong Kong dollars.

At the same time, Xinjian Vegetable Company cooperated with Chiang Rai Province to develop a vegetable planting base in Chiang Khong County.

Xinhui Infrastructure Investment Co., Ltd. is a joint venture with the Chiang Rai City Government to build and operate Chiang Rai International Airport.

In addition, Xinhui Infrastructure Investment Co., Ltd. also signed an investment intention agreement for the expressway from downtown Chiang Rai to downtown Chiang Mai. It is expected that in the near future, Chiang Rai will not only have an airport and railway, but also a highway, which will greatly facilitate the citizens of Chiang Rai. At the same time, it also has a huge role in promoting the economic development of Chiang Rai.

Li Jianhui focuses on the development of Chiang Rai, not only for the Thai market, but also for the market of neighboring countries, and even the northern market not far away.

The border wholesale trade center is Li Jianhui's positioning for Chiang Rai, which is why he invested in the establishment of Donghua Garment Trade City and Wheelock Square here, and there will be Aodong Trading Group and Debao Trading Company in the future.

The former sells daily necessities, while the latter sells industrial machinery and energy, and can even be used as a bridge for weapon products.

Sisupong doesn't care what plans Li Jianhui and Donghua have. As long as Donghua does not violate Thai laws within Chiang Rai, the two parties are close collaborators.

If he wants to go further, he needs the prestige and achievements of the people, and this aspect is mainly due to the rapid economic development, which makes him bound to rely on the support of the East China Association.

Moreover, Sisuphorn's family has lived in Chiang Rai for several generations. He also hopes that Chiang Rai's economy will prosper and develop, and he also hopes that Chiang Rai can become a major city in Thailand and even Southeast Asia.

This dream used to be out of reach, but now Donghua will invest in Chiang Rai on a large scale, which gave him hope. He has great confidence in Chiang Rai becoming one of the four major cities in Thailand. In the future, Chiang Rai will be second only to Bangkok, Chiang Mai and Rayong.

In order to realize this dream as soon as possible, Sisupeng had a private meeting with Li Jianhui after the reporters left.

"Mr. Li, you are also aware of our situation in Chiang Rai. There are no large-scale mineral resources or large-scale manufacturing enterprises.

The reason why Chiang Rai has developed so fast and the population has increased so much in recent years is mainly due to infrastructure investment and service-oriented industries.

But in this regard, it is impossible to guarantee the long-term stable and rapid development of Chiang Rai. I sincerely hope that the manufacturing industry under Mr. Li and even under the Tung Wah Association can come to Chiang Rai for development. "

"Because of its geographical location and history, Chiang Rai does have many flaws in its development, and I understand Mr. Xishipeng's feelings very well.

But in my opinion, Chiang Rai is not suitable for developing into an industrial city, and Chiang Rai does not have such conditions.

Let me tell you the truth, at present, our Tung Wah Association has no plan to invest in building a production base in Chiang Rai on a large scale.

In my plan, Chiang Rai is more suitable as a border trade center, mainly to develop the trade industry.

Due to the special geographical environment of Chiang Rai, Chiang Rai Province also mainly develops vegetable and fruit cultivation, which is also my original intention of investing in the establishment of a vegetable and fruit wholesale market.

On the other hand, Chiang Rai is also suitable for the development of tourism because of its unique geographical environment.

Of course, if you have enough connections, you can persuade the upper-level government, and you can also develop the gaming industry in a certain area. As a border government, this is also a major advantage. With the development of time, you will definitely be able to attract wealthy people from neighboring countries and regions to play in the future. . "

That is to say, Li Jianhui still promised that Xinjian Bank will provide low-interest financing loans for Chiang Rai enterprises to support Chiang Rai enterprises to become bigger and stronger.

At the same time, Lane Crawford, Success Retail, Cosway, and Watsons will increase their cooperation with daily necessities companies in Chiang Rai.

Sisuphorn was a little disappointed in this, and he could only lament that Chiang Rai is not as good as Rayong, and lament the current environment on the southeast peninsula.

If the surrounding Myanmar and Laos also belonged to ASEAN, maybe Chiang Rai's planning and positioning in the East China Association would be completely different.

After all, the ancient country in the north is not far from Chiang Rai, but Laos or Myanmar is separated in the middle. With the financial resources of the Donghua Society, it is fully capable of building the railway from Chiang Mai.

It's a pity that Chiang Rai doesn't have such a good environment. To reach Chiang Rai at the northern end of the Xingmatai Express Railway is already a special care of Donghua Society. It is undoubtedly a wishful dream to continue going north and connect to that ancient country.

Disappointed but disappointed, Sisuphorn still said: "Thank you Mr. Li for your guidance and support for our follow-up development in Chiang Rai, and also hope that the companies under the Xinjian Department and Donghuahui will continue to increase investment in Chiang Rai. I also believe that Chiang Rai and enterprises can achieve mutual benefit and common development.”

"Chiang Rai is one of the key development markets of our East China Economic Cooperation Association, and we are also willing to develop together with Chiang Rai's economy.

The trip to Maesle Village yesterday made me quite emotional. We also hope that Chiang Rai can have a fair, inclusive and respectful social environment. The history of the Nanyang Chinese can be saved. While they are developing themselves, they are also contributing to the local economic and social development. .

But in many cases, they do not get the corresponding respect and fair treatment, as well as the rights they deserve.

Fortunately, over the past few years, the governments of various places in Nanyang have made great improvements in this regard. The Chinese and ethnic Chinese have gradually gained their due status and rights in the local area, and it has also allowed the Nanyang Chinese to regain their confidence in living and developing in Nanyang. "

During the secret talks, Li Jianhui also communicated with Sisupong about the next year's general election, and at the same time, Xinjian Education Group established a private Chinese (Mandarin) school integrating primary and secondary schools in Chiang Rai.

This will also be the first Chinese teaching school planned by the Xinjian Department in Thailand. When the time is right in the future, Li Jianhui will also establish Chinese schools in Chiang Mai and Rayong.

As for Chiang Mai, which is said to be the easiest, in order to avoid affecting Yaowarat's election in the next year, Li Jianhui has not mentioned it so far.

Li Jianhui actually has a huge plan in his heart, even at present, it is completely a dream, but he is working hard towards this plan.

Although it is unlikely to be successful in a few years, ten years or even twenty years, it may be possible to achieve it in a few decades.
