"This year, we have received a total of US$12.7 billion in investment, most of which come from China. In the decades after Djibouti's independence, we have received much investment and assistance from other countries."

"Yes, Djibouti's agriculture is backward, the land is not suitable for cultivation, and grain production is only half of it consumed. We need assistance from other countries to maintain it. But should we meet it? Is it our goal to struggle on the line of food and clothing? Is it not that we in Djibouti should live a better life, and we have that condition."

"Djibouti has a unique geographical location. We are no worse than Singapore and Panama. We have a similar land area as theirs, but their living standards are very different."

"Now, we are building a new port, we are establishing a free trade zone, the railway is connected to Ethiopia, and we still have a lot of infrastructure under construction, Djibouti is developing, and in the future, my ideal is to build Djibouti into Singapore, Panama, and even Dubai in Africa."

Odova's words have made everyone here excited. Whether it is the cooperative party or the opposition party, they are all Djiboutians and are willing to make their country better. Now, what Odova says is not a blueprint, but a real thing that is being implemented. They believe that after this round of construction, Djibouti will definitely make a qualitative leap.

"So now Djibouti needs to gradually establish its own rules, and cannot act on our territory as before. They must abide by the agreement. This is also the need for our future development."

"As for the issues you are worried about, well, I can tell you that our fiscal revenue this year has exceeded that of last year. I have signed a food supply agreement with China. We will not be hungry, as for national security."

Speaking of this, Odova glanced at everyone and said in a serious tone, "No country can ever hand over the safety of its own country to other countries with confidence. The United States cannot do it, and France cannot do it. In the future, we must strengthen the construction of our country's military force. I have already made new plans, and I will talk about this later."

"We are a sovereign state, a member of the United Nations, and an African Union. What rights do other countries have to interfere in the internal affairs of our country? They do not, so there is no need to worry too much about the safety of the country."

"Okay, let's start the vote now. I hope to get everyone's support, rather than using the president's rights to force this matter, although I have this right." Odova said toughly in the end.

He has expressed his thoughts about this sentence. He will promote this matter regardless of whether the parliament passes it or not. He will discuss it with everyone today, just to respect everyone and hope to get everyone's support.

The Speaker announced the start of the vote.

People raised their hands one by one. Of course, the people on Odova's side naturally moved the fastest. In the end, 65 members of parliament agreed, 39 votes agreed, 11 abstentions, 15 votes against, and more than half of the votes passed.

There are 11 abstentions, and the number of abstentions is so high. It seems that there are many people hesitating.

Japan also reported this to his mistress. The mistress was very surprised. Unexpectedly, the small country of Djibouti began to light a red light to Japan.

They invested more than 200 million US dollars to build a military base in Djibouti, and paid more rent every year than Americans. The military base in Djibouti is Japan's only overseas military base now and must not be lost.

According to the "Piracy Countermeasures Act" which came into effect in late July 2009, the Japanese government established a military base to combat Somali pirates in Djibouti. This base became the first military base established by Japan overseas since the end of World War II.

There are many military bases built in Japan. The US military has 88 military facilities and bases in Japan, with a total of 36,365 people.

As a defeated country, Japan has a peace constitution, which has strict restrictions on the dispatch of Japanese military forces overseas and the establishment of military bases overseas, and it is not allowed to do so.

In recent years, Japan has taken advantage of the various opportunities provided by the international community to prevent the international community from going out well. For example, when fighting Somali piracy, the United Nations has resolutions. The United Nations has also resolutions in the fight against terrorism. Japan has made military forces continue to move outward through the practice of playing the edge, and even developed to this day, establishing military bases overseas.

This military base in Japan naturally cannot be compared with the large base of the United States, which covers an area of ​​6,000 acres, and is far inferior to France. It can only be regarded as a temporary station, with two P3C patrol aircraft, four armed helicopters and two reconnaissance helicopters, and 350 self-defense force members stationed.

But the significance of this base is still significant.

No matter how big or small it has established a foothold here. Because it is on land, it has a great effect on Japan's military power, supplies, and water refueling in this area. Therefore, the military strength of this base can be expanded at any time. It is more important than sending several warships to patrol the Gulf of Aden.

This is also the reason why China has always wanted to find a base in Djibouti, and it is easier to make decisions with a chassis.

After Mu Yang became an ambassador, he built a military base station with a capacity of more than 60,000 square meters from Djibouti, and the location was excellent, several times larger than the base in the United States, so naturally the Japanese were incomparable.

It is lies to say that the Japanese are not jealous. They are really jealous, and they are so jealous.

But now, it is very important for Japan. The only overseas military base, Djibouti, wanted to cancel him because of an accident. What a joke, Japan will never allow such a thing to happen.

"Contact the ambassador to Djibouti and visit President Odova. This matter must be suppressed. We can agree to some conditions from the other party. Japan can make compensation. And also tell the other party that Japan will never allow such a thing to happen. For this, Japan will pay a huge price." An Xiaosan said with a serious expression, and the two pieces of fat drooping on both sides of her cheeks were trembling.

Reassure threats.

Japan has paid too much to go out, and it is definitely not a matter of construction rental fees alone. If it is really cleared out by Djibouti, Japan's strategy of going out will be severely hit.

His prestige will also be severely hit, because this matter was promoted by him. The base was built for two years and was put into use in mid-2011. It was liquidated and terminated by the country after only four years of use. Japan will become a joke and he will be attacked by political enemies for this.
