Project narrative
In 2005, the Chinese Government agreed at least in principle to provide an $85 million loan to the Government of Indonesia for the Cirebon-Kroya Double Track Railway Project. The purpose of this project was to construct a double-track railway from Cirebon, West Java to Kroya, Central Java. The loan would have carried a maturity of 15 years, a 7 year grace period and an interest rate of 3%. This project was part of a larger $200 million loan package to support 3 major infrastructure projects in Indonesia (see Record ID#72360). The other two projects were a $94 million, 110-megawatt Parit Baru power plant in West Kalimantan (see Record ID#35240) and the $169 million Jatigede dam in West Java (see Record ID#38861). A Chinese Government loan commitment for the Cirebon-Kroya Double Track Railway Project was never fulfilled because the Japanese Government ultimately financed and implemented the project.
