Joining Sichuan Airlines starts with rescuing the captain of a powerful country

Chapter 282 The difference between big countries and small countries
Southeast Asia!
Genius is dim and bright.

The Xia State Embassy in the Republic of East Tiwen is still brightly lit.

Obviously.

The embassy has been busy all night.

It's now around seven in the morning local time.

But the streets outside the embassy were already busy with traffic and very lively.

East Timor is a small country in Southeast Asia.

economic crisis.

It stands to reason.

Because of the climate, people in tropical countries are relatively lazy.

Especially economically underdeveloped countries.

The streets and alleys are full of lazy, lying-down people.

That's what happened in East Timberland.

So don’t say 7 o’clock in the morning.

Even at eight or nine o'clock, there may not be so many vehicles and people on the street.

But today is different.

Not only did people leave the house in a hurry before 7 o'clock in the morning, but almost everyone brought their families with them, as if they were preparing to flee.

Uh!
On the run, indeed.

Just yesterday.

A volcanic island called Yadi, about 200 kilometers away from Dili, the capital of East Timber, suddenly erupted without warning.

Although this volcanic island is far above the vast sea.

But because the level of this volcanic eruption reached level 6, it triggered a series of chain reactions.

For example, the volcanic eruption triggered earthquakes and tsunamis, causing many losses of people and property in East Tiwen and surrounding countries.

Moreover, the large amount of volcanic ash brought by the volcanic eruption covered the sky and the sun, almost covering and 'submerging' the coastal areas.

To avoid inhaling large amounts of volcanic ash.

The citizens of Dili had to drag their families with them and 'flee to the interior'.

"There are currently more than 14,000 Chinese expatriates in the Republic of East Timor, most of whom are concentrated in the country's capital - Dili City, and a small number are scattered in several mining areas and industrial areas in the country. The embassy now We have begun to organize the evacuation of overseas Chinese to inland areas, and if the situation in the country deteriorates further, the country can also coordinate ships and planes to evacuate overseas Chinese.”

Inside the embassy conference room.

Jian Xin, the first secretary of the embassy, ​​stood next to the projector and reported in a hoarse voice.

In the conference room.

The settings of several air purifiers have been adjusted to the highest setting.

But the conference room was still filled with choking turbid air.

Therefore, staff participating in the meeting had to wear masks.

Their expressions were listless.

I don’t know if it’s because I’m tired or because I’ve inhaled too much volcanic ash.

"The difficulty now is the Nusa Tenggara Islands. Because the archipelago is rich in oil and gas resources, many of our country's oil and gas companies have oil and gas wells in the archipelago. The combined number of technicians and workers from China There must be more than two hundred people”

Jian Xin hasn't finished speaking yet.

Xu Yun, counselor of the embassy, ​​interrupted, "The Nusa Tenggara Islands are more than three hundred kilometers away from the volcanic island that has erupted, and the archipelago is in the northeast of the volcanic island. According to the ocean currents and monsoons, this time the volcano The outbreak shouldn’t affect the Nusa Tenggara Islands, right?”

Jian Xin quickly explained, "That's right. According to the predictions of experts from the Dongtiwen Meteorology and Disaster Prevention and Mitigation Department, the eruption of the Yadi volcano is not an isolated case, but a microcosm of the violent plate movement. And in Nusa Tenga There are also two volcanic islands in the La Islands, and they are obviously more active during this period than before, so Dongtiwen officials are worried that these two volcanic islands will also erupt." Xia Guo's ambassador to Dongtiwen is an elegant middle-aged man.

But now his elegant temperament has been replaced by seriousness.

After listening to Jian Xin’s report.

He immediately said in a deep voice, "The situation is not obvious yet, and there is no relevant early warning from the country. Therefore, the core work of the embassy is still to evacuate the expats gathered in Dili City to the interior to temporarily avoid volcanic ash and earthquakes. , tsunamis and other geological disasters.”

"As for the Nusa Tenggara Islands, we will temporarily send a working group to do the evacuation work. We are not afraid of 10,000, just in case."

"By the way, does the Nusa Tenggara Islands have an airport or a port?" the ambassador asked.

Jian Xin flipped through a few pages of information in his hand before replying, "The main island of the archipelago, Nusa Tenggara, has both a port and an airport, and the airport is also a 4D-level international airport."

"That's enough. We have both a port and an airport, and it's only over 4000 kilometers away from the country, so we just need to make an evacuation plan," the ambassador said.

"Our current focus is still on the evacuation of expatriates from Dili and surrounding areas. From last night to now, the country has been involved in more than a thousand public security and criminal cases due to the volcanic eruption. Originally, the public security in Dongtiwen was It’s very bad, and now someone is taking advantage of it.”

to be frank.

All embassy staff, including the ambassador, do not trust the domestic expert warnings in Dongtiwen.

After all, Dongtiwen's economy is underdeveloped and its science and technology are far behind other countries.

They even need to rely on Xia State's weather satellites for domestic weather warnings.

Not to mention 'plate movement'.

Therefore, most people believe that this eruption of Mount Yadi is just an isolated incident.

It is not caused by the so-called 'plate movement'.

"Ahem." The ambassador coughed violently several times, feeling that his entire nasal cavity was burning.

He was about to announce the end of today's morning meeting.

But at this time.

The local TV station that had been broadcasting the volcanic eruption suddenly interrupted a piece of news from Xia State: An international text message was inserted, and a civil aviation passenger plane in Xia State suddenly lost contact 20 minutes ago. It is reported that there were a total of 119 passengers, 9 staff members, and two television staff on board this passenger plane. We have not yet received any further news from the Civil Aviation Office, and our station will continue to pay attention.
Everyone in the conference room was stunned when they saw the news on the TV.

Ugh!
It was indeed an eventful time.

Can the attention a civilian airliner attracts be compared to that of a country?
It depends on which country the aircraft belongs to.

Now Dongtiwen has suffered from natural disasters such as volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, and tsunamis, which have caused hundreds of deaths and injuries, and thousands of people missing.

Direct economic losses reached hundreds of millions of dollars.

Not to mention that from last night to now, the country's gangs have taken advantage of the situation and thousands of public security and criminal cases have occurred.

But even so.

Except for a few surrounding countries, the international community still knows nothing about what happened in East Timor.

Uh!
It should be said that he doesn't care at all.

This morning's headlines from around the world.

All focused on the southwest region of Xia Kingdom.

Focused on the scarred Airbus A319 passenger plane.

As one of Blue Star's top superpowers, not to mention the loss of a passenger plane with 130 people on board, even a street fight may become the focus of global attention.

This may be the difference between big countries and small countries.

After all, more than 95% of the people in the world have probably never heard of the small country of East Tiwen.
