Project narrative

According to a media report on August 2, 2005, China's People's Liberation Army and Vanuatu Police Force signed an agreement recently to finance police projects worth more than US$286,000. The funds also provided a 28-seater bus and three double cabin vehicles for use by the police force. A December 2005 Quarterly Economic Report by the Reserve Bank of Vanuatu confirmed that the agreement was worth US$319,000 and reached in July 2005. During the same meeting, another aid agreement was signed between China's People's Liberation Army and the Vanuatu Mobile Force (VMF), which includes uniforms and equipment for the VMF (captured in Record ID#63871).
