Staff comments

- The Chinese project title is 马里医院项目 or 援马里医院项目. - The French project title is la construction d’un 3ème centre hospitalier de référence. - Shenyang Engineering Supervision & Consultation Co., Ltd. puts the value of the grant commitment for this project at RMB 36,380,000. However, this estimate is considerably lower than the values reported by the Chinese Embassy in Mali (RMB 48 million) and the Government of Mali (4.816 billion CFA francs). AidData relies on the value reported by the Chinese Embassy in Mali.
