Description
In April 2013, the National Development Reform Commission (NDRC) of the People's Republic of China donated 24 million CNY worth of LED lights to Maldives. Vice Secretary of NDRC and Maldives' Minister of Energy and Environment attended a handover ceremony of China's donation of 250,000 LED energy-saving tube lights on April 1, 2013. The lights were donated by NDRC "in order to assist in combating the negative effects of climate change." Reportedly the lights have been distributed to over 500 institutes across the islands. The project is linked to #38400, an additional donation of 200,000 LED tube lights and 10 sets of solar home systems in 2014. For the 2017 energy-saving lamps donation, see project ID#69519.
