Description
On May 16th, 2016, Chinese Premier Li Keqiang and Afghan Chief Executive Officer Abdullah Abdullah signed six bilateral cooperation documents, including an exchange note granting 50 million yuan of non-emergency humanitarian aid to Afghanistan. On December 2016, China donated 50 million yuan of humanitarian aid to Afghanistan. The aid includes blankets, tents, and medical equipment that will be delivered to 34 provinces in Afghanistan. It will help to settle down refugees and provide support for families affected by wars or natural disasters. The handover ceremony was held on December 21, 2016. The "natural disaster" refers to the snow disaster that hit Afghanistan in the same year. This project is linked to project #53630 that provided cash aid to the snow disaster. It is also linked to #53631 that also provided humanitarian aid at a different delivery time, and linked to project #70640 that captured the 174 simple Bungalow construction aid from China for the disasters.
