On May 6, 2008, Barbadian and Chinese officials signed an exchange of letters agreeing to provide Barbados with a grant of teaching and office equipment worth 1 million RMB. On February 10, 2010, these materials arrived in Barbados. The official handover ceremony took place in the Ministry of Social Care on February 23, 2010.
