Description
On December 14, 2006, the Chinese Government and the Government of Lebanon signed an Economic and Technical Cooperation Agreement (ETCA) in which the Chinese Government committed RMB 20 million to Lebanon for the acquisition of equipment and devices for Lebanon's Ministry of Telecommunications. According to the Lebanese Council for Development and Reconstruction (CDR), this project has been completed.
Additional details
This project is known as "Economic and Technical Cooperation, 2006- Equipments and Devices for the Ministry of Telecommunications" in the Lebanese Council for Development and Reconstruction's (CDR) database. The agreement number is 2256 (see "CDR Funding - Economic and Technical Cooperation, 2006- Equipments and Devices for the Ministry of Telecommunications"). As this is an ETCA, which is a financing mechanism specific to China's Ministry of Commerce (MOFCOM), AidData has coded MOFCOM as the specific Chinese Government institution responsible for providing this grant. It is likely that this grant agreement from this ETCA was used in project ID#65649, but AidData has unable to find firm evidence linking them together (it may be the case that project ID#65513 is the source of financing for that project).
