Description

On 27 June 2012, the Chinese Vice Minister of Commerce signed an Economic and Technical Cooperation Agreement (ETCA) granting $9 million USD to the Government of Lesotho. The funds will cover 'the shortfall of funds' for the China-Lesotho Friendship Middle School (#55754) and other unspecified projects (see: APA News). Whether and how exactly this money was spent is unknown. The other agreement signed at the same meeting is captured in ETCA #71734.
