Narrative
Full Description
Project narrative
On May 13, 2004, the Government of Nauru received a $1 million USD grant from the Chinese Government for unspecified purposes. In January 2005, the Public Accounts Committee of the Congress of the Federated States of Micronesia was "seeking information concerning the disbursement of these funds" and asked Micronesia's Treasury "to reconcile the various payments issued by the government using these funds".
Staff comments
It is likely that this grant came from an Economic and Technical Cooperation Agreement (ETCA) signed by the two countries in April 2004. Project_status was set to Completion because it clears that all Chinese financing was disbursed to Micronesia.
