Description
On 2 April 2009, a Chinese Government official signed a contract with the Government of Sudan for the Juba Primary School Construction Project. Juba was originally located in Sudan but became a part of South Sudan after they gained independence in 2011. The Chinese Government financed this project with an RMB 8.6 million grant. China Overseas Construction Group was the implementing contractor. The school was officially completed on 6 May 2011 and renamed the China-South Sudan Friendship school. The school covers an area of 12,000 square meters with a building area of 1,380 square meters. It consists of 12 classrooms and 4 offices, and can accommodate 800 students. China National Petroleum Corporation donated $100,000 USD for the school's auxiliary facilities (see Project ID#58846). PowerChina donated a water supply system to the school in January 2012 (ID#59683).
