Description
The Chinese Government committed grant funding — from an Economic and Technical Cooperation Agreement (ETCA) that it signed with the Government of Macedonia in 2014 — to support the Naim Frasheri Primary School Construction Project. The purpose of this project is to construct the Naim Frasheri primary school in the municipality of Tetovo. On April 11, 2016, a visiting delegation from the Chinese Government met to discuss the construction of the school. However, as of August 22, 2017, the project has yet to be implemented in any fashion.
Additional details
There is a Shkolla Fillore 'Naim Frasheri' in Negotino-Poloshko, North Macedonia, which is different from the Naim Frasheri primary school in Tetovo. There are multiple schools named Naim Frasheri in Macedonia. There was no record of Chinese financing for the Negotino school. Though also Chinese-financed, the Mala Recica elementary school set to be built in Tetovo is not the same. This is not the same project as Goce Delchev in Tetovo, nor Naim Frasheri in Skopje Morani, nor Naim Frasheri in Kumanovo There is no recorded monetary value for the Chinese Government grant commitment in support of the Naim Frasheri Primary School Construction Project.
