Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

On August 20, 2008, the Chinese government agreed to grant the Peruvian Ministry of Foreign Affairs 63 luxury vehicles worth 20 million RMB for the 16th APEC summit in Lima, taking place November 22-23. This followed an initial pledge through letters of exchanged signed on March 19, 2008. The cars were to be used to transport leaders, senior officials, and ministers of the 21 countries attending the summit. One was provided to the Peruvian Embassy in China. The vehicles were supplied by the China FAW Group Import & Export Corp. and included the following models: one Hongqi HQ430, twenty-one Hongqi HQ300, and forty-one Besturn 2.0AT comfortables. A team of five technicians also traveled to Peru for 30 days to provide technical assistance. The vehicles were delivered on November 14, 2008, and the reception certificate was signed on November 19, 2008, confirming the arrival of the vehicles in Peru.
