Chapter 804 The Commissioner for Justice
The phrase "all-nuclear fleet" has a mysterious fascination for some people in the Admiralty, and they are willing to put it into action.
Hyman Rickover and Arleigh Burke, the fathers of nuclear power, are firm advocates of the all-nuclear fleet. The two men were able to cite numerous examples to prove the superiority of an all-nuclear fleet, but they were not adopted by Capitol Hill.
At this time, Mountbatten's appearance as a supporter of Britain's domestic all-nuclear fleet is more able to prove the correctness of their claims.
They hoped that Mountbatten could have a pleasant meeting with Eisenhower.
This idea is perfectly normal, just like the relationship between Whitehall and the British Chancellor of the Exchequer. They can talk about anything but cutting funding. This set of bureaucratic ideas also works in the United States.
Mountbatten's trip to the United States was destined to take a long time. Pamela Mountbatten, who also convened a bunch of big nobles, was also negotiating with the four major families in Hong Kong, which made Alan Wilson very lonely.
Staying in Singapore, I talked to the British Commander Lieutenant General Bilton every day about the ins and outs of the harmonious relationship between me and my father-in-law.
In the end, the British garrison took away the right to deal with the criminal soldiers with solid evidence. The military of any country is not easy to mess with, and the United Kingdom is certainly no exception.
Coming out of the Far East Joint Operations Command, inside the truck escorting the offending soldiers, two rows of British soldiers wearing silver bracelets looked angrily at the culprits through the view behind the truck.
Without this person, they would never have enjoyed this kind of treatment in their lifetime. An administrative commissioner actually appeared at the headquarters in person and took them out of the garrison base.
"Don't look at me like that!" Alan Wilson, who was wearing a suit, put his hands in his pockets and stared at the car nonchalantly and defended himself, "What I despise most in my life is someone who is completely comfortable and irresponsible. I used to I have a good assistant who originally had a bright future, but now I don’t even know where he is. His mistakes are similar to yours, but far less serious than yours.”
"The two major ethnic groups in British Malaya are very conservative regardless of the social atmosphere. If you are involved in money transactions, I will naturally not go too far, but having a relationship with a girl from a good family is irresponsible and is not conducive to the work of the colonial government. "
Alan Wilson stood behind the truck and chattered, "Just be lucky. Just get married and forget about it. It's just a civil lynching. It can't be that simple."
"I didn't force him..." a first-class soldier defended with an angry expression, "I have a girlfriend in China."
"Why will I wait for you after serving for such a long time? There are some things I don't want to explain clearly." Alan Wilson looked like you are too young, thought for a moment and said, "I will contact Whitehall to find out about your family in the country. Relationship, let you give up on this idea. Well, Qingshan Mental Hospital welcomes you. The East Malaysia Commissioner will wait for you to finish your stay in the pigeon cage to preside over the wedding. If you refuse, it will be handled in accordance with the laws of the colonial government. Regarding the crime of rape, because The social atmosphere in colonial Malaya was conservative, and the reputation of chastity was highly valued, and similar mistakes were considered serious crimes."
In fact, in later generations of European and American societies where relations between the sexes are open, it would not matter if the punishment for rape was reduced. The family has been broken up, and you still struggle with this kind of thing? But it is different in Malaya, where the sentence must be severe.
You can't do it no matter what you want. The current atmosphere in the colony is like this. Soldiers who commit crimes pat their butts and leave, leaving women behind. In such a conservative colony, how will people live in the future?
Alan Wilson was talking earnestly below the headquarters about his difficulties as a high commissioner. His voice was so loud that it could be heard in the headquarters building. This was very disgusting to the soldiers in the British headquarters.
Even General Bilton's conference room could hear it clearly.
A group of senior officers looked ugly and said to General Billton, "General, military courts will naturally deal with military matters. His behavior is against the rules."
"No one in the Mountbatten family knows the rules." Lieutenant General Bilton said with a wry smile, "He is the administrator of the colony, and he sets the laws of the colony. Whitehall is very satisfied with his work. Colonial commissioners rarely serve two terms, and he will be here for years to come."
Although Lieutenant General Bilton did not respond directly to the question, the hint was very clear. Even if the administrative department wants to be handed over, there is nothing he can do.
At this time, Alan Wilson finally finished his chatter, and took the time to look at the sergeant who had beaten Coca. He would probably be under special care when he arrived at Qingshan Detention Center.
From his perspective as a high commissioner, let alone coming to ask for people from the military, even if he chops off these people's heads in the street, as long as he can maintain the stability of this 500,000-square-kilometer colony, it is definitely worth it.
Seeing the military vehicle starting up and marching towards Qingshan Mental Hospital with soldiers wearing silver bracelets, Alan Wilson put his hands on his waist. If he didn't say that people should do more good deeds, he would feel cheerful if he did a good deed every day.
"Thank you for your cooperation from the headquarters." A respectful shout came into the headquarters conference room.
"This bastard." The entire conference room cursed, and even Lieutenant General Bilton couldn't help but shake his head.
Fortunately, after doing good deeds, Alan Wilson left in a car. He was not looking for trouble, but came to demonstrate judicial justice in the Malayan colony. If he caught ten people here, he would naturally blow away a hundred thousand people. Effect.
As for the operation process, he could also take the opportunity to see the capabilities of the commissioners at all levels. He has always felt that bureaucratic incompetence and shamelessness can only be one, not both. For example, in a large country, there is a difference between the north and the south.
In fact, from his point of view, officials in the south are much more capable than their colleagues in the north. This strength is all-round, especially when combined with the hegemony of public opinion. Good things must be publicized and bad things must be suppressed. The Xu Xin incident was suppressed. It would be unimaginable if this happened in places like Northeast China and Henan.
With the support of the hegemony of public opinion, some people will follow the lead of public opinion. Otherwise, so many people would not believe that the south is really colder than the north, instead of spending a few dollars to buy a thermometer to take a look.
Facts have proved that the world accurately abides by the 80/20 rule. There are many more stupid people than smart people. As a professional bureaucrat, Alan Wilson feels that if he can be successful in Malaya, it will not be a piece of cake for him to play with the old stereotypes in the UK after returning home. a plate of?
From the beginning of his second term, in addition to continuing to pay attention to the economic development of the colonies, Alan Wilson also began to secretly observe the capabilities of colonial government officials. It was impossible for him to work in British Malaya all his life.
If this is the case, the purpose of his current work is not for Britain. Instead, he should consider when Malaya will become independent, imitate Rhodesia in history, and imagine how to become the king of the mountain.
Returning to the apartment, Alan Wilson, who had been in a good mood all day, held Hedy Lamarr in his arms, as if holding a little girl. This kind of intimate gesture is very popular with women. Who is not a little fairy? Woolen cloth?
During this period, he must brag about his actions to support justice today. After hearing this, Hedy Lamarr asked, "Your actions should be very popular, but it is not good for the military."
"People in this colony believe in killing people to repay debts and repaying debts. But as a colonist, I know that although the same thing would happen even if we didn't exist here, because it involves the garrison, there will definitely be a backlash, so we have to downplay it. The colonial color focuses on the justice of the outcome." Alan Wilson said this and emphasized after a moment of silence, "Especially in contrast to countries where the US military is stationed."
"You're right. The French hate the U.S. military garrison now." Ingrid Bergman happened to come downstairs and nodded, "I've heard many people talk about their views on the U.S. garrison."
"The French... they can stand it as long as they can." Alan Wilson smiled, but it doesn't matter, the French will drive away the American garrison sooner or later, just wait and see.
Sensing Alan Wilson's reaction that you came at the right time, Ingrid Bergman also came over to sit down and heard Alan Wilson say, "Sometimes when you two live in Paris, I worry about the German troops stationed abroad. Sex has made France unsafe."
"It's nice to say it again. Anyway, it's time for the two of us to go back." Ingrid Bergman rolled her eyes at the man and whispered with an unnatural look on her face, "If we continue to stay here, we will become four people when we go back. "
"Don't we have a way to avoid pregnancy?" Alan Wilson sincerely assured that it was absolutely safe.
"Bah!" Hedy Lamarr and Ingrid Bergman spat at the same time. This man didn't want to take the right path every day, but only thought about evil heretics. The two of them would never agree.
Alan Wilson raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, saying that as a man, he must walk the right path and not follow evil ways. "I will stay for a few days. I am very lonely now."
The hard-working colonial commissioner finally left the Singapore headquarters and arrived in loyal Kuala Lumpur. Presides over the colony's annual meeting. The members of the beginning meeting change every year, which is generally reflected in the rotation of commissioners from Christmas Island.
Alyssa has prepared information about a certain big country and handed it over to Alan Wilson to see if there are any policies worthy of follow-up, including but not limited to criticizing bourgeois literary and artistic ideas, which are not used in Malaya.
Regarding the birth control problem report, there is no population pressure in Malaya. Regarding the Chinese character simplification draft, Malaya has completed the simplification.
New banknotes issued? Malaya has also adopted the Asian pound as its currency, so there is no need for this.
Finally, Alan Wilson took out a document about grain and used it as the content of his meeting. Regarding agricultural work, he emphasized that in the work of unified grain purchase and marketing, further measures must be taken to determine production, purchase, and marketing, so that farmers can have a clear understanding of their own situation. Knowing what to sell is of great significance to stabilizing farmers' emotions and easing tensions in rural areas.
