Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

On December 8, 2018, the Chinese Embassy held a ceremony to hand over four wells to Malawi, constructed in the Chiradzulu district. More than 200 people attended the event, including Chinese Ambassador Liu Hongyang, Minister of Information and Communications Henry Moussa, local government officials, traditional leaders and local people. Building these four wells in a timely manner will greatly alleviate the water problems of local villagers. The cost and the date of the initial donation agreement for the boreholes is unknown. On October 26, 2018, the embassy handed over two additional wells to the Chiradzulu area (see Record ID#57912).
