Rebirth: Super Banking System Chapter 2551 - 2389: 12 Years of Forbes
Previously on Rebirth: Super Banking System...
Myanmar Asia Chamber of Commerce.
Within its halls.
Thanks to mutual cooperation, bonds among members deepen steadily. The feeling of unity strengthens too. Indeed, over recent years, everyone's wealth has surged dramatically.
Some boast billions, plenty reach tens of billions, and others even hit hundreds of billions.
Loans.
Orders.
Discounts.
...
Everything's provided without fail.
Moreover.
Conducting global business becomes smoother with fellow Chamber members handling key issues. Consider this: not even nations possess such influence to safeguard companies across the world.
Yet the Chamber.
Has accomplished it.
All of it.
No connections to forge, no officials to appease—just one requirement: membership. Join up, reap the rewards, and stay compliant with the rules.
No expulsion awaits.
Hence.
Every member.
Brims with assurance.
...
In local markets.
No fawning over regional powers required. If pressure mounts excessively, shift operations overseas. Allies abound, and red tape poses little threat.
Actually.
Should local officials deliberately harass member companies too harshly, the Chamber steps in. Failure to resolve prompts a full pullout of Myanmar-linked firms.
Not one remains.
To sum up: Avoid stirring trouble, yet dread it not!
Before now.
A Malaysian state saw such a case. A corrupt local official eyed a Myanmar-linked firm and employed vile tactics.
After grasping the facts.
No words needed.
Negotiation? Unnecessary.
Relocate!
In a single night.
More than a hundred firms in that state declared relocation intentions. Over two hundred plants closed abruptly, dismissing Malaysian officials' pleas entirely.
Kill the chicken to scare the monkeys.
Set up a strong warning.
Tens of thousands jobless. Even today, Myanmar-linked businesses shun that state as a forbidden trade zone—no investments, no dealings.
Let them fend for themselves.
Afterward.
The offending official faced inevitable ousting to soothe outrage; with masses unemployed, Malaysian leaders raged and probed deeply.
Ultimately.
Past misdeeds surfaced.
Charges piled up.
Life sentence.
Hardly easing the fury.
Capital punishment?
Sorry.
Malaysia lacks it. Rumors later swirled of a prison mishap for him... Causes of death sparked endless theories.
Yet the likeliest account holds that job losses for tens of thousands incited widespread vengeance. The Chamber has managed similar crises repeatedly.
Always the same approach.
Pull out!
Refuse all future dealings there, and myriad partnering Myanmar-linked firms, seeing the fallout, mostly flinched. Plus Myanmar's mounting stature.
No investors risked it.
Failing that.
Even without Chamber action, members from Myanmar-linked firms won't stand passive. All share the same vessel; the Chamber guards member benefits.
For major issues.
The Chamber intervenes.
Members deal with shortsighted firms on their own. That's why loyalty to the Chamber swells among them.
For.
They recognize.
The Chamber possesses both power and resolve to defend their stakes.
Ever since.
It has scared off countless schemers, compelling ill-wishers to back down—they can't handle the fallout. When it strikes, it's no small matter.
Minor fallout hits hundreds.
Severe fallout strikes tens of thousands, escalating straight to national peaks.
Such weight.
Proves overwhelming.
Scarce few endure it. So Myanmar-linked firms operate across nations, fulfilling procedures properly and following laws.
But dare reckless meddling?
Sorry.
No quarter given.
...
This unity explains why the Myanmar Asia Chamber of Commerce draws ambitious business leaders. Regrettably, entry demands are steep.
Wealth.
Integrity.
Neither dispensable; unethical firms barred outright.
Reflecting on it.
Tang Kai feels amazed; the Chamber's might now dwarfs its founding days. Massive loans and business expansions fuel it.
Today.
Myanmar Asia Chamber members command assets topping three trillion USD at minimum. That's raw asset worth, not inflated multiples like ten or twentyfold.
Awesome!
Terrifying!
Plus.
Beyond Myanmar-linked firms, numerous non-members have tapped Myanmar Bank Group loans, forming a parallel powerhouse.
Simply put.
The Myanmar Asia Chamber of Commerce.
It has grown into the world's foremost commercial alliance organization, unmatched by any rival. A large share of the global international trade market remains firmly in the grasp of Chamber members.
Agriculture.
Construction.
Manufacturing.
Energy.
Chemical Industry.
…
The wild expansion receives backing from the Myanmar Bank Group. Issuing the Asia Dollar lets them gather massive foreign currency reserves to snap up assets worldwide.
Everything.
Feels laced with a hint of fantasy.
Tang Kai is convinced.
Within a few years.
The Myanmar Asia Chamber of Commerce will command even greater global influence. The united might of numerous enterprises has sharply reduced the Euro's market share.
…
"How long do you reckon it'll take to surpass the Euro?" Miao Yin asked casually.
"Mid-year."
Tang Kai responded.
This issue.
Tang Qing had spelled it out for him: the Asia Dollar's surge was unstoppable, and the Euro couldn't hold it down. That's the explanation Tang Qing provided, and Tang Kai fully trusted it.
"Mid-year?"
"Hmm."
"Then, let's raise a toast to the Asia Dollar," Miao Yin chuckled, his views matching those of his eldest son Miao Ye, both bursting with confidence.
"Haha, alright."
Lifted their glasses.
Drained them dry in one swallow.
As conversation flowed.
Miao Yin mentioned Tang Qing: "Congratulations on your nephew's wealth swelling once more."
At those words.
Tang Kai responded modestly: "It's only net worth, not real cash." Still, pride shone clearly in his eyes. Forbes had just released its list yesterday.
Likewise.
Tang Qing placed second.
But his net worth exploded upward, exceeding 900 billion U.S. dollars. Euro flight-to-safety funds boosted U.S. and Myanmar stock markets alike. Prices skyrocketed.
Thus.
Tang Qing's net worth hit 916 billion U.S. dollars.
Shattering records.
Inching closer to a trillion.
"Net worth counts as wealth too. With 900 billion U.S. dollars, if your companies list publicly, the Tang Family's assets might already surpass a trillion dollars,"
Miao Yin exclaimed in wonder.
A trillion U.S. dollars—what an astonishing figure. Their Miao Family could never dream of it.
Perfect timing.
Strategic location.
Harmonious alliances.
Tang Qing commanded them all, driving his monumental successes. These days, fresh global wealth explosions are getting rarer by the day.
New technology.
Stands as the sole path to breakthrough.
Chances for ordinary folks to make a comeback dwindle, akin to Myanmar's fresh markets in Africa—without serious capital, you can't claim even a scrap of meat.
Stuck sipping the soup.
Earning riches.
Grows ever harder.
Right now, he's latched onto a golden chance. Yet Miao Yin never pursued such lofty goals; he's plenty pleased with their current standing.
The Miao Family's fortune.
Would last ten generations; the foundation he's laid for his heirs is more than sufficient. Pushing further without destiny only courts pointless risks.
Nevertheless.
One can't help but marvel at the Tang Family's blessing in raising such an outstanding heir.
