Narrative
Full Description
Project narrative
Prior to the end of 2009, the Chinese Government provided an RMB 40 million concessional loan to the Government of Vietnam for the Thai Nguyen Chipboard Factory Project. The project was completed, but its precise implementation start and end dates are unknown.
Staff comments
1. The factory is also known as the Thai Nguyen Plywood Factory. 2. It is unclear when China signed the loan agreement for this project. For the time being, AidData codes the commitment year as 2009 because one source identifies the project in a table (Table 5-1) with data up to "the end of 2009" (see "Living next to the giant," p. 86).
