African Nationhood

Chapter 412 Dominion Development Plan (Part )

(Thanks to book friend 20230514174506587 for the tip, thank you puppet!)

On May 5, the Judicial Committee of the South China Autonomous Territory (Executive) has compiled and completed the "Draft Constitution of the South China Autonomous Territory", which was reviewed and approved by Lord Shi and the Parliament of the South China Autonomous Territory (Executive).

The South China Dominion sent National Committee member Cai Shaoji to lead a team to London, presented it to the London Parliament, and asked the British King to sign it.

During his stay in Europe, Cai Shaoji will try to invite well-known European scholars to come to South Africa to give lectures.

……

On May 5, at the Handu (Bulawayo) Conference Center Building, the newly appointed government officials and the Prime Minister gathered together.

Ouyang Geng took office as Prime Minister and presided over the government affairs meeting for the first time.

The chief officials of various departments came to the small conference room early, waiting for the arrival of Chairman Shi and Premier Ouyang.

With a smile on his face, Ouyang Geng walked into the conference room one after another with Lord Shi. Today he will release the "Future Development Plan for the South China Autonomous Territory" on behalf of the cabinet.

Arriving in the conference room, senior officials stood up to greet the two government giants.

Shi Jintang nodded, "Well, everyone, please sit down."

Listening to the Prime Minister's increasingly cold Mandarin, many senior government officials gathered their strength and answered in unison: "We will work hard to complete the tasks assigned by the Prime Minister, and strive to complete the planned goals ahead of schedule or beyond the target."

"Hello, Chairman!"

The current benchmark data for agriculture, animal husbandry and forestry in the Dominion are as follows:

After speaking, Shi Jintang nodded to Zhong Yilin in the corner.

"Today is the day when our cabinet and the heads of various ministries take up their new duties. Everyone, please relax. I will try to keep today's meeting as brief as possible.

……

The autonomous region's agriculture and animal husbandry must have clear growth targets, and the growth rate can no longer be vague as in the previous internal affairs meetings. The cabinet's current requirements for the development of agriculture and animal husbandry are an annual growth rate of 30%, and the five-year mid-term goal is to increase by 5 to 1 times. . "

Next, Prime Minister Ouyang released the "South China Autonomous Territory Mid- and Long-term Development Plan." "

Everyone applauded, and Ouyang Geng stood up with a smile, "Thank you Chairman for your trust, and thank you all for your support.

Last year, 320.1 million tons of wheat, 288.3 million tons of soybeans, 189.2 million tons of rice, and 150 million bales of cotton were produced.

148 million pounds of coffee beans, 65 pounds of tobacco, 3600 tons of sisal, 802 tons of sucrose, and 199 tons of white sugar.

I'm going to hold that department accountable, and then we all won't look good on our faces! "

“It’s good if you all have this intention. Next, I will release the mid- to long-term development plan for the Dominion.

Here, the chief officers of each department need to keep records to determine which department failed to achieve the goal after the expiration date.

Since his scope of control also includes Lanfang Company, there is no conflict.

A total of 609 million hectares of farmland and 810 million hectares of pasture are cultivated within the Dominion.

Now let me explain the development plan of the South China Autonomous Territory in the next five years.

The medium- and long-term development plan established by the cabinet first takes the next five years as a span.

Minister of Agriculture, Forestry and Animal Husbandry Tan Yaoxun stood up and replied: "Yes, Prime Minister, our department will definitely complete the set goals on time and in accordance with the cabinet's requirements.

Zhong Yilin was transferred back and he was appointed as the director of the overseas business department and concurrently as the president of Lanfang Company.

There are 1007.6 million sheep, 129 million cattle, and 101.5 million horses. "

After listening to Tan Yaoxun's statistics, Ouyang Geng nodded.

"Okay, we will use the current data as the standard. Five years later, in 5, we will use the data to discuss heroes."

After Ouyang Geng finished speaking, he looked at Futong, "The cabinet requires the Ministry of Human Resources to increase the total population by 10% to 15% year by year, and strive to increase the total population in the autonomous territory to 5 million within 1700 years."

As the Minister of Human Resources, Futong is still under some pressure to fulfill the cabinet's requirements.

Nearly half a year has passed since 1903, and the company has not completed much immigration. Moreover, the Pacific summer is about to enter, and the immigration work will be stalled for a long time. "Prime Minister, our department will try its best to fulfill the cabinet's requirements."

Ouyang Geng also knew that this goal was very demanding, but the South China Autonomous Territory had a vast territory and a small population was a drawback.

Chairman Shi had communicated with him that he hoped that the South China Autonomous Territory would become an industrialized country, so South China was in urgent need of a large population.

“I know this is a bit demanding, but it’s not impossible to accomplish.

Minister Fu, if you think about it, if the birth rate in our autonomous territory increases by one percentage point, there will be more than 10 new people.

I think your department should think of more ways to do this. "

Futong nodded, his frown relaxed a lot.

"Okay, we'll think about it carefully."

Ouyang Geng then looked at Liu Jiazhao from the Ministry of Culture and Education, "The cultural and educational departments have heavy responsibilities. I hope that the cultural and educational departments can effectively shoulder the dual satisfaction of the cultural and educational life of civilians in the autonomous territory. We aim at satisfaction.

At present, the people's satisfaction with culture and entertainment in the autonomous territory is 84%, and the illiteracy rate is 63%. Within five years, the cabinet requires that the satisfaction with culture and entertainment remains at 5%, and the illiteracy rate is reduced to 90%. "

Hearing this data, Liu Jiazhao suddenly felt grateful for Alexander.

Because the South China Autonomous Territory is an immigrant-based government, even if the enrollment rate of immigrant children reaches 100%, with the continuous influx of adult immigrants, the illiteracy rate will only continue to grow.

If we want to reduce the illiteracy rate, we must pay close attention to literacy education for adult immigrants.

This is the first meeting of the cabinet, and he cannot embarrass Prime Minister Ouyang.

So Liu Jiazhao nodded, "Don't worry, Prime Minister, our department will do its best to meet the cabinet's requirements."

"Also, the proportion of college students among secondary graduates is also very low. Previously, our college student rate was only 13%. The cabinet hopes that the college student rate in the autonomous territory will increase to 5% after the expiration of five years."

Liu Jiazhao's expression changed suddenly when he heard this. There are about 10000 secondary school graduates in the Nanhua Autonomous Territory every year. If the proportion of college students is 30%, then 3000 secondary school graduates must go to college every year.

When Cai Shaoji was the education commissioner, the number of students sent out each year plus those trained locally was only more than 1300. This was a huge jump.

"Chairman, Prime Minister, this data is really too high, and our cultural and educational department's budget and teaching staff are not enough."

Ouyang Geng is relatively clear about Liu Jiazhao's character. He is just too slippery.

I don't want to do my best in everything, I just want to keep some room.

So this time I have to force him, "This matter has been decided. If you can't do it, I will just replace it with someone who can do it. You can think about it yourself!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Jiazhao did not dare to bargain.

He lowered his head and said softly: "Yes, Prime Minister.

Our department will definitely work hard to complete the tasks assigned by the Cabinet and strive not to disappoint you and the Chairman. "

Shi Jintang looked at Liu Jiazhao's disappointment and didn't take it to heart.

Judging from the current teaching staff in the South China Autonomous Territory, it is indeed difficult to train a large number of college students, but this time Cai Shaoji went to Europe to recruit people at a high price, and he was always able to fool a few high-level scholars into coming here.

Besides, the education department also owns Tesla, whose radio and alternating current are not commercially available on a large scale.

Once Tesla publishes his paper on radio and alternating current, the whole world will go crazy.

"Minister Liu, don't worry. You can go to my place later and I will take you to see Dr. Tesla. He will have a surprise for you."

Liu Jiazhao was overjoyed when he heard that Mr. Shi was willing to help him. He smiled and nodded, "Okay, Chairman, I will go find you after the meeting."

According to the editor's request, the place names in the article have been modified.

Bulawayo was no longer called Jinling and was renamed Handu. After the establishment of the Dominion, Pretoria was renamed Hanking. )
