Chapter 1426 – Gathering the Old Guard

As for the next step, the Foreign Office has arranged for Rahman to be interviewed by the bbc about his journey, although it is said that most British people probably don’t care very much.

There is also an aim to say something that the British love to hear, and also that the British government loves to hear, especially Alan Wilson, in the person of the leader of a country that was once a breakaway from British India.

“In fact the disagreement over Nehru’s as well as Jinnah’s demand for independence was the root cause of the Indo-Pakistani partition, with Hindu hardliners and the PML-N’s need to separate at that time. Being in the Bengali perspective, we did not want to separate the two countries. Now I am not saying this as a disservice to the leaders of the time.”

Shaking his glass, Alan Wilson was reasonably satisfied with the performance of Rahman, who was being interviewed exclusively on television; the Indo-Pakistani partition had been perceived by the Soviet establishment as a deliberate act by Britain, used to create conflict.

If Britain had done so, then these accusations would have been ignored at best, but Alan Wilson knew full well that the government of the day, and Mountbatten himself, did not take kindly to partition.

Partition is also not in line with the British tradition of administering the colonies, clearly Nehru and Jinnah could not come to terms and had to be separated, and now decades have passed, and still hold the United Kingdom responsible?

Especially since he himself, at precisely that time, was a colonial official in British India, and the fact that Britain had been carrying the blame meant that he, the supreme authority, had to share in it as well, so how could this work?

Hearing the self-justifying brother-in-law, Princess Margaret did not like to hear, right to the source said, “I so want to hear, the government and Marshal Mountbatten really do not want to partition, but you and your colleagues in British India are very much in favor of partition, and at the outset is so prepared, this black pot has nothing to do with the United Kingdom, but how can it be with you have nothing to do with it?”

Immediately Princess Margaret, was greeted with a look of I advise you to mind your own business! Alan Wilson put down his glass and put his hand on Her Royal Highness’s thigh, “Is it possible for me, an assistant to the commissioner, to change the policy of the country? The root cause is still Nehru and Jinnah’s failure to talk, what does it have to do with me? Besides, historical documents are not relevant.”

The partition of India and Pakistan is a done deal, the Indo-Pakistani war has been fought three times, does it make sense to hold him, a petty bureaucrat, responsible now?

The right source is good, but in my favor on the right source, to my disadvantage on the self-punishment of three cups to uncover, at this time, His Royal Highness let him be very dissatisfied, reach out and want to try is still not their own shape, how can you talk like this.

“Well, know that you have no selfishness is for the British Empire.” Clamped the strange hand, Princess Margaret blushed and admitted her mistake, knowing the mistake can be corrected, is not it?

“With the contribution I made to the country, bearing this distrust, it is really sad.” Alan Wilson had the expression of Prime Minister Cao, clearly in order to support the British family, but it was not understood.

Alan Wilson thought to himself that he could say that in all these years, he had played a greater positive role for Britain than any other Briton, but he was misunderstood?

It is good that Princess Margaret is still aware of the situation, and after a few moments she fell on top of the man, as powerless as a fish leaving the Thames, with her red lips slightly parted and unable to help herself.

Bangladesh’s previous pillar industry is jute, this thing is not only Bangladesh to take it as a pillar industry, India is also a big jute country. This time a big country should also be, jute people can see the most application is to do sacks, not that jute has nothing else to do, but you see it also do not know its raw material is jute.

Jute is a natural fiber, want to eliminate it, we must make breakthroughs in man-made fiber technology, at least ten years, the world’s demand for jute is not reduced.

Jute from the harvest to make industrial products to the market is a long process, alone a primary processing will cost a lot of labor costs and time costs, jute from harvest to delivery to the factory for profit, which will take at least a month of time, for most farmers, this one month cut down a lot of planting profits.

If you plant a small amount of jute can also be dried, soaked jute for rough processing, planted too much need to hire people to help, otherwise simply too busy. Proper labor-intensive industry. It is indeed very suitable for such a small country as Bangladesh, the largest resource is a small country, not to mention now, fifty years later, this is also a pillar industry in Bangladesh, India’s important industry.

Now Alan Wilson’s idea is as soon as possible to let the jute industry in Bangladesh to restore, first let the local people have something to do, this industry would have been time-consuming and labor-intensive, or else a large country will not be compared to the man-made fibers immediately after the elimination of the jute planting, but it is a different situation, does not apply to a large country does not mean that it is not suitable for South Asia.

The world’s rich and poor is difficult to equal, the earth’s warm and cold is not average, such as Bangladesh, any resources are lack of good, not to mention what is nothing, even if the Kuwaiti resources to Bangladesh will not change anything, Kuwait’s national population of eight hundred thousand, the population of Bangladesh sixty million people, is not a quantum leap.

The basic conditions are like this, do not do the jute industry can do what? But where there are other ways, will not do the jute textile industry to the twenty-first century is still regarded as a pillar industry.

There is another problem in front of Rahman, how to cleverly borrow the British signboard, without messing with the Indian side of the situation, the livelihood of Bangladesh to restore.

“When Rahman goes back, he won’t go back on the agreement he promised us, will he?” Although Britain got what it wanted and could be considered a great success, John Hunt still presented pessimism.

“My friend, in fact, Bengal independence in a certain becoming is bad for India, both India and Pakistan are a religious merger into one country. But Bengal fits perfectly into the European-defined concept of a nation-state. If India is able to keep on ensuring smooth sailing, then it is not much of a threat to India. If India itself is one day in the midst of a crisis of its own, then it’s not a sure thing. A merger of Bangladesh and West Bengal is not entirely out of the question.”

The neighborhood of Calcutta was the richest part of what turned out to be South Asia, or else the British wouldn’t have landed from the Ganges Delta and slowly begun their snake-eat-elephant invasion.

“India will run into problems? That’s unlikely, isn’t it?” John Hunt raised one eyebrow, thinking how weak India would have to be to give Bangladesh a chance.

“Who’s to say about the future, the plan to rebuild Bangladesh over, the bottom line is that the standard of living of the Bengalis has to be higher than the average of India. Now that Bangladesh has been devastated by war, the difficulty is indeed great, but it’s not impossible to accomplish if you stretch out the time.”

Alan Wilson is still optimistic about the future of the Bengalis, or that, the world in order to the dream of a great power is holding back a hard-working and willing to work nation is not much, but in order to eat a full meal to show hard work of the nation is a lot. Bangladesh fits this perfectly.

Of course, this has to be done under the guidance of professionals, and Allen Wilson is just too distracted to personally benefit Bangladeshi society.

But that’s okay, he has asked the Home Office to look for current colleagues who are still alive and well, living and sweating in British India. British India has been independent for more than two decades now, and there must be a number of gentlemen who are no longer with us, which requires the Home Ministry to slowly bring them back.

Only professional colleagues with knowledge of the local customs will be able to maximize Bangladesh’s potential and put this troubled country on the right track.

Recall colleagues must fully meet the two basic requirements, the first point is that when the children of colleagues, is now also part of the humble social commons, only then they will be for the sake of their children to consider, serious sweat, otherwise it is likely to be out of work, the second point, the need to still be quite healthy, more than two decades past, do not go to South Asia to have a go, which is not very good.

As Bengal Awami League leader Rahman was on his second mission, visiting New Delhi to meet Indira Gandhi, the recall to play the rest of the game began on the London side as well.

In London’s Hyde Park, enthusiastic concerts are being held, with a sea of spectators who can’t help themselves amidst the music, that’s the way the world is, some people are starving, some people are singing and dancing, and one wonders if the citizens of London, at this point of time, have forgotten about the miserable Bengalis.

Most notably, a pair of twin sisters with a youthful atmosphere, beautiful singing voice is mesmerizing, the new song rolling in the deep, but also intoxicated.

Rolling in the deep is a classic Adele song, but who knows in this world as long as the supreme authority doesn’t say anything?

Listening to the people around him praising the two Isabella Ishtar sisters, David’s face was very calm, lifting his wrist to look at the time, waiting for the concert to end.

“These two girls are the most popular singers in Europe right now, I wonder who their mother is to give birth to such beautiful angels.”

The comment made David raise an eyebrow and say of course, can’t you imagine the joys of a father, always waiting until the sisters’ repertoire was over, David walked off in a direction and waited for the two sisters to come out.

It wasn’t long before the two Isabella Ishtar sisters joined forces and politely greeted David, nodded to each other and left Hyde Park together.

“Let’s gather at Hawksin Manor, quite a few people are familiar faces, this is also for the reconstruction of Bengal well, all so familiar.” Alan Wilson yawned breathlessly.

“Then I will so inform them. But isn’t the secretary general sick, take more rest.” Brewster expressed his concern for the supreme authority over the phone.

“More rest, well, I actually want to.” Alan Wilson absentmindedly agreed, glancing at the ladies to his left and right who were on equal footing with his wife, Hedy Lamarr and Ingrid Bergman were also staring back at him without any self-consciousness, and it looked like the issue was not going to be able to be agreed upon for the time being.
