1. Recipient NGO was called 毛塔环境救援协会 in Chinese, Association Sauvetage du Milieu Environnemental (ASME) in French, and إغاثة الوسط البيئي in Arabic, translation tends to mess up the English (known both as "Mauritania Environmental Rescue Association" and "Mauritania Environmental Relief Association").
