Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

In April 2020, the Hungarian branch of the Bank of China (BOC) and Fudan University donated 15,000 KN95 masks, 41,000 surgical masks, and 300 protective suits to the Hungarian government, the Hungarian-Chinese Bilingual School and the Corvinus University of Budapest. The donated items arrived in Budapest on April 4, 2020. The estimated value of the donation is USD $39,440.

Staff comments

1. Chinese involvement in the founding of the Hungarian-Chinese Bilingual School is captured in Record ID#52752. 2. AidData has estimated the transaction amount for this donation based on price catalogues from the World Health Organization (WHO). Please see the TUFF Methodology for additional details. 3. A Chinese donation of 80,000 masks to the Hungarian Government in the same shipment is captured in Record ID#102194. It is possible that the Hungarian Government only received the 80,000 masks from the shipment and was not a recipient of the 15,000 KN95 masks, 41,000 surgical masks, and 300 protective suits. However, it is more likely that the Government of Hungary was also a recipient of some of these additional items and so it is included as a recipient on this project.
