Project narrative

In May 2004, Mahamoud Soilihi, the Foreign Minister of Comoros, announced that the Chinese Government had agreed to provide a grant to support the People’s Palace Rehabilitation Project. Then, on January 19, 2005, the Chinese Government and the Government of Comoros signed an exchange of notes related to the People’s Palace Rehabilitation Project. China’s Ministry of Commerce was the source of funding but the monetary value of the grant commitment is unknown. This project was completed in 2005, according to MOFCOM. The initial construction of the People’s Palace was funded by the Chinese Government during the 1980s and the building was officially inaugurated on July 4,1985.
