Project narrative
On November 28, 2000, the Chinese Government provided an RMB 52 million concessional loan (No. 31/TDNN – TDTW) to the Government of Vietnam. The borrowing terms of the loan are unknown. However, it is known that the Government of Vietnam on-lent the proceeds of the loan to Cienco 6 Corporation to facilitate its acquisition of construction equipment
Staff comments
1. Cienco 6 Corporation, also called Civil Engineering Construction Corporation No. 6, is a Vietnamese state-owned firm focusing on infrastructure and engineering. 2. The lender is unknown. However, the loan that was issued is referred to as an ‘ODA loan’, so MOFCOM or China Eximbank are the most likely candidates. This issue requires further investigation.
