Description

On January 9, 2004, during a three-day visit to Uganda, China's Foreign Minister Li Zhaoxing announced that that the Chinese Government would provide a development aid grant worth $2.6 million USD to Uganda (see 'Chinese foreign minister pledges 2.6 million dollars in aid to Uganda.'). It is unclear whether this pledge was formally committed and disbursed.

Additional details

It is likely that this pledge was fulfilled by other Chinese Government-funded projects in Uganda after the fact.
