Thailand.
Bangkok.
A lot of people are talking about the Bank of Myanmar.
Especially a few people who know the inside story.
At first, Thailand did not intend to hold the Asian dollar, because if rantsai could subsidize the first time, it could subsidize the second time. Obviously, holding the kyat won't make Thailand suffer losses, which is more reassuring.
However, the Bank of Myanmar suddenly proposed to use half of the Asian dollar for settlement.
This has aroused heated discussion among senior Thai officials, and they all feel that the Bank of Myanmar is whimsical. Although the performance of the Asian dollar during this period is very brilliant, it does not mean that the Asian dollar is qualified to participate in the trade settlement between countries.
Of course, they learned about the agreement between Huaxia and Yayuan.
However, Thailand is not interested in this. They think that China will abandon the Asian dollar sooner or later. The time is when the kyat dollar will stop devaluing. Now it's good for you to open a bank. What else do you want to do?
But.
When the Bank of Myanmar comes up with a set of data.
Thailand's top officials were silent for a moment.
Because the data shows.
The trade volume between Thailand and the Myanmar special economic zone is gradually increasing, and it is basically a trade deficit. What does the trade deficit represent? It means that I buy more of your things and you buy less of mine.
To put it bluntly.
The Bank of Myanmar is the big spender.
Due to the good cooperative relationship before, although Myanmar's sea port is also open to Myanmar's Special Economic Zone, and Myanmar's large amount of natural resources are also open to the special economic zone, the Bank of Myanmar still abides by the treaty and has been using the original raw material suppliers.
This makes the trade deficit between the two sides continue to the present.
Not only that.
The data also show that the main export channel of the Myanmar Asian special economic zone is Thailand, which means that Thailand has received a lot of tolls. Looking at the data provided by the Bank of Myanmar, they know that this is a kind of "strength display".
The point is the threat.
I bought a lot of raw materials provided by businessmen in your country, but this kind of raw material is also available in Myanmar. I bought your things with good intentions. Do you want to give me a discount or something?
And I'm using the old export corridor.
You can not only charge an extra toll.
Your merchants get huge profits from selling these commodities, which has increased a lot of taxes for you. Now I'll ask you to settle half of them in Asian dollars. Do you mean to refuse?
I have to say.
This is a soft knife.
It really made the senior management of Thailand hesitate, and the tone was not as tough as before, because what the Bank of Myanmar said was the fact that it was a win-win trade for both sides. Now all major Thai families have interests in the special economic zone of Myanmar.
At least tens of thousands of Thais have benefited from bilateral trade.
The Thai government is not crazy.
It is impossible to cut off such economic exchanges.
Now the meaning of the Bank of Myanmar is very obvious: I am a sincere person. The previous raw material import contract is implemented as usual, and I promise that it will not reduce or unilaterally ban the supply contract in the next three years, and I will also use Thailand's sea port.
In addition, the commitment not to participate in money laundering, asset transfer, equity investment, consumer loans, credit cards and other financial businesses is only for the convenience of trade between the two sides and the promotion of trade and economic development between the two sides.
And provide operating loans to enterprises and cooperative enterprises of the Bank of Myanmar.
Bank of Myanmar's commitment.
That's what kept the Thai government silent.
Finally.
I think it's better not to offend the Bank of Myanmar completely.
It's not good for everyone.
It's not a big deal anyway.
Finally, the Thai government agreed, so it sent the conditions to the Central Bank of Myanmar. At the request of the Bank of Myanmar, it did not mention where the conditions came from, so as to avoid unnecessary complications.
Thailand doesn't know what the Bank of Myanmar has.
But Thailand is not fit to participate.
That's inside Myanmar.
Thailand also said that they would try their best to persuade Myanmar to agree to the proposal. However, before Myanmar put forward the second subsidy, the news came that they totally agreed, which surprised the senior management of Thailand.
The strength of zero can't be underestimated.
I can't believe I got them so quickly.
No nonsense.
They immediately held a meeting to vote and passed the application for the establishment of the Bank of Myanmar (Thailand). Next, the Bank of Myanmar will go through the process of the Bank of Thailand itself. At the same time, the branch of the Bank of Myanmar in Thailand can also start looking for venues.
。。。。。。
March 1st.
Bangkok.
Central district.
Prosperous area.
The Bank of Myanmar (Thailand) was officially opened.
There is no grand tailoring, there is no event held, so quietly opened.The first day before opening.
There are people outside the bank.
These people don't come to deposit money, and Thai people don't go to unfamiliar banks to handle business. Before, there were several false bank incidents and several Oolong incidents, and they were very vigilant.
These are all enterprises that come to handle new bank cards.
Before their trade settlement.
Yayuan is settled in the Bank of Myanmar.
Thai baht is settled by several company accounts of Myanmar bank in Thailand. Now, at the request of the Thai government, the currency exchange of these trades will be participated by the Central Bank of Thailand.
This makes them have to re apply for bank cards.
"Mr. Li, you still come by yourself." A well-dressed boss greets his acquaintances in line. He still speaks Chinese. Obviously, he is a Chinese businessman in Thailand.
"It turns out that it's boss Chen. It's not the first day of business. Naturally, I'll come to have a look. We're not allowed to send flower baskets or gifts. It's so low-key." The person called President Li raised the information in his hand and said with a smile.
Both of them are Chinese traders who have made a lot of money from the special economic zone of Myanmar.
I thought there were activities in the opening.
But not even a banner.
It's rather shabby.
But the two of them dare not look down upon the bank, nor think it is poor.
As businessmen who have close contacts with the special economic zone of Myanmar, they know quite well about the strength of this bank. It is a real giant. Under its big tree, millions of people live with it.
Now it's in Bangkok.
It's so low-key.
It seems to be consistent with the style of Bank of Myanmar.
"Yes, but if there are activities, it's estimated that the space in front is not enough for flower baskets." The middle-aged man of boss Chen laughs.
"So it is."
Mr. Li has no doubt about the appeal of the Bank of Myanmar.
"What are you doing with this information?" Boss Chen suddenly asked.
Li Zongyi Leng, looked at the information in his hand, and asked: "isn't it the bank card of the new enterprise? What about without information? "
"Didn't you get a text message last night? This kind of bank card can be handled on the Internet. Fill in all the information on it. Just come and get it today. Look, there are several people with information around. " Mr. Chen explained.
Mr. Li looked around and it seemed to be true.
"Well... I drank too much last night and didn't notice. "
So.
The bank is only open for three minutes.
Boss Chen took the bank card and left.
President Li lined up for two hours.
