Chinese Government provides RMB 38 million grant — via a July 2001 ETCA — for the Military Housing Project

Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

In July 2001, during the seventh meeting of the inter-government committee between China and Mongolia, the Chinese Government and the Government of Mongolia signed an Economic and Technical Cooperation Agreement (ETCA), which committed RMB 45 million for multiple projects. Then, in December 2001, the Government of Mongolia decided to use RMB 38 million of the grant proceeds from the ETCA to finance a Military Housing Project. The purpose of the project was to build 300 apartment for military personnel between 2001 and 2003. AidData has not identified any evidence that the apartments were ever constructed.

Staff comments

The Mongolian project title is Төрийн ажилтны орон сууц барих тухай. Some sources suggests that the apartments were to be constructed for civil servants rather than military personnel. As this is an ETCA, which is a financing mechanism specific to China's Ministry of Commerce (MOFCOM), AidData has coded MOFCOM as the specific Chinese Government institution responsible for providing this grant.
