Myanmar is in disaster!

As soon as the news came out, Wall Street around the world was in a frenzy.

Myanmar is one of the world's major grain-producing countries and the cheapest grain-producing country. Its fertile land and pleasant weather make the grain output here extremely high. However, since this year, Myanmar has suffered from repeated floods.

.It has greatly reduced Myanmar’s grain production and harvest expectations. This is one of the sources of the increase in grain prices this time.

But this time, Myanmar was hit by a severe tropical storm that once occurred in a century. Across Myanmar, the death toll due to the severe tropical storm was as high as 77,738, the number of missing people was 55,917, and the number of injured was 19,359. The whole country was in mourning.

The main grain-producing areas suffered even more heavy losses. Wheat, rice ears, and corn that were about to mature were all reduced to debris by the strong tropical storm. The farmland was in a mess, and farmers' houses were turned into ruins.

Several cities were directly submerged by floods, millions of people were displaced, and tens of millions of people suffered disasters and made their lives inconvenient.

What is even more frightening is that after this severe tropical storm, Myanmar changed from a major food exporter to a food importer. There is no way, there are too many disaster victims in Myanmar. Originally, their granaries were full of food, but now their granaries have been destroyed.

The strong tropical storm destroyed it, and the food was blown away by the strong wind. Even if it was not blown away by the strong tropical storm, it was still submerged by the floods caused by the strong tropical storm.

There is no food in Myanmar! This was almost unimaginable before. No one could imagine that there would be no food in Myanmar. This is too exaggerated and unbelievable. How could there be no food in Myanmar? But now, this is the reality, this is Myanmar today

current situation.

The Myanmar government issued a request for emergency assistance to the United Nations Red Cross for 10 million tons of food. Myanmar has 60 million people. Now more than half of the population has been hit by disasters, and nearly two-thirds of the population is facing food shortages. Myanmar is a major grain-producing country.

, had to surprisingly send a distress signal to the United Nations.

After Myanmar's distress signal for food shortages was issued, national food prices collapsed. Futures prices jumped 70% higher. Overnight, international food prices rose by almost 100%, and as Myanmar's food shortage intensifies, this price will continue

Keep going higher.

It is expected that food prices will at least double this year. The food crisis is coming!

Crazy, all the businessmen related to food are crazy. No one thought that this food crisis has really come. A food crisis will actually break out in Myanmar, a food-producing country. Now, those food traders are going to make a lot of money.

As for those food-deficient countries, they are doomed. With food prices rising so high, can they afford it? You know, even developed countries such as Canada and Australia are already feeling a little pain from today's food prices.

"Today, global food prices continue to rise. This is a disaster for all countries that do not produce food and rely on food imports. I hope that major food-producing countries can liberalize their external food supply and use domestic resources.

Grain reserves can alleviate the food crisis caused by this time and stabilize food prices!" Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper called with concern.

Originally, the international grain price was about US$167 per ton of corn. But now, corn has soared to US$316 per ton. This nearly doubled price increase is unbearable. Originally, you could buy one ton.

At the price, you can only buy half a ton now. Moreover, this is the recent price. The domino effect caused by the disaster in Myanmar will make the price of corn rise to an unbearable level.

Stephen Harper is very worried that food prices will be uncontrollable in the future. What is an uncontrollable state? That is, the major grain-producing countries have tightened their foreign trade supply because of each other's disasters. If so, the food crisis will be real

is coming. Therefore, he and Australian Prime Minister Howard jointly held a press conference, calling on international grain-producing countries not to just care about the snow in front of their own homes and not to worry about the frost on other people's tiles.

"I hope that major grain exporting countries such as Russia and Ukraine can liberalize their grain supply and use their own grain reserves to ensure the stability of international grain prices. Otherwise, this time, I am afraid there will be many victims who cannot afford the high prices.

We are starving to death for lack of food. This is the 21st century and we are a civilized society. We cannot just watch the phenomenon of starving to death. In particular, we cannot just sit back and watch the situation of people emerge!" Australian Prime Minister Howard said by name.

The leadership of the two developed countries has naturally triggered responses from major food-scarce countries. They have called on the international community to take action to jointly overcome the current difficulties and avoid the food crisis from getting worse.

"Haha, opportunity, opportunity has finally come!" Monsanto CEO Hugh Grant's eyes shone with excitement.

Now he finally waited until a severe disaster occurred in a certain grain-producing country. This was his opportunity. It was an opportunity for Monsanto, and it was also an opportunity for genetically modified organisms. Of course, Monsanto is not in a hurry now. Before Monsanto takes action, he still needs this grain.

The price should be a little higher, a little more expensive. How expensive should it be? In Hugh Grant's view, the most expensive poor countries simply can't afford it.

Of course, people will starve to death. But if some people don’t starve to death, how can the international community pay attention to it? If the international community doesn’t pay attention to it, how can it realize the excellence of genetically modified technology? Otherwise, how can genetically modified technology spread around the world? As for

As for these people who starve to death, what does their death have to do with Monsanto? If they want to blame, they should blame them for having no money. If you have money, how can you starve to death?

"Remember, tell those grain traders that the price of grain will continue to rise, and tell them not to rush to sell. Now that grain is scarce, it is more expensive. It is definitely better to hold grain in your hand than to hold cash in your hand. Also,

, tell them that they don’t have to worry about being blamed by society. The world’s largest grain trader is Lin Feng, and he will bear the blame for all grain traders. So don’t worry, just go ahead and speculate on high grain prices.

Just fly to the sky!" Hugh Grant's vulture-like eyes shot out a ferocious look.

At this time, the international community naturally did not know that there was someone behind the scenes secretly promoting this matter. The most important issue for the international community now is not to stabilize international food prices, but to provide disaster relief. Myanmar is one of the world's major food-producing countries. If Myanmar is unstable

Come down, let alone the high food prices this year, the food prices will be high next year. Therefore, disaster relief must be done first. But Myanmar’s opening is 10 million tons of food, which is really acceptable. Many countries are hesitant. Now food

But for scarce things, it is better for you to give money than food. But Myanmar does not want money, but food!
