The Chinese government extended an interest-free line of credit totaling about $6 million. Angola's Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, George Chicoty, signed the agreements with China's Vice Minister of External Trade and Economic Cooperation, Zhang Xiang. This line of credit provided the funds for Luanda's Central Hospital in Kilamba Kiaxi and the 8 million USD contract was awarded to China Overseas Engineering Group. Construction started in July 2004 and was completed in 15 months. The hospital was inaugurated in February 2006. A Deborah Brautigam China in Africa blogpost from April 21, 2011, stated that 'The decision to build the 100-bed $8 million Luanda General Hospital was made in 2002, and after tenders in China, COVEC won the bid and constructed the building between July 2004 and February 2006.' Moreover, after cracks developed in the walls of the hospital in 2010, Brautigam wrote that officials from China and Angola met for several rounds of talks. 'The Chinese side will build some temporary wards and sewage systems for patients to ensure the operation of the hospital. Then the maintenance work and expansion of the hospital will begin.' The Chinese government will finance the new construction.' Today the hospital can accommodate 100 patients and offers services in laryngology, dermatology, neurology, opthalmology and physiotherapy. Reports in 2011 (Macao Magazine, correspondence with Chinese Ambassador to Angola) confirm that Luanda Hospital contains an anti-malaria center - China also contributed funds for the construction of the center and in 2009, it provided additional equipment (financial amount undisclosed) for the maintenance of the center and anti-malaria drugs for Angola's anti-malaria campaign. China Overseas Engineering was criticized for the poor quality of construction of the General Hospital. Cracks were found in the ceiling and in 2012 China agreed to fund the reconstruction of the hospital (#30049).

The Morupule B Power Station expansion project will be carried out by the China National Electric Equipment Corporation. African Development Bank and World Bank funding is required to close the financing gap of the project. The actual/latest estimates of financing of the total project cost were International Bank for Reconstruction and Development US$ 66.06 million, 5 percent; African Development Bank US$ 57.2 million, 4 percent; and ICBC US$ 825 million, 64 percent. When completed, the power station will have four 150 MW units. The first unit was slated to be commissioned in 2011 while the first phase of Morupule B project was expected to be completed by 2013. As of 2014 the project was finally completed, but since then has suffered from many delays and machine failures, The Morupule B power station was constructed and is operational. It was taken over by the BPC on May 2014 but with significant defects. The most serious concerns about performance and reliability were the boilers and some elements of the balance of plant. The plant has been performing well below the expected level. It was expected to operate at the annual capacity factor of about 80 percent, with annual gross generation of about 4,200 gigawatt-hour (GWh). However, the plant had been operating with the overall plant_„Žs capacity factor closer to 50 percent, reflecting poor availability and unreliability of the units due to forced outages. 'Troubled' Morupule B (Units 1-4) has a capacity to produce 600MW, but is currently operating at 21 percent capacity producing only 130MW. Groundwork to expand the plant to 900MW has already started after a tender for construction of another two units (Unit 5 and 6) was recently awarded to a joint venture between Japanese Marubeni and South Korea_„Žs Posco Energy.

The loan has a 3% interest rate over its 20-year term, with a seven-year grace period. The hydropower plants will add approximately 6,000 jobs. The entire construction process will be completed in 54 months; construction officially began on November 15, 2008. In February of 2012, the Director of Electrical Energy, Patrick Yali, announced that the Poubara 4 Dam would be opened for July 2013. The entire dam's funding was 75% provided by the Chinese government, and the Gabonese government picked up the latter 25%. Deborah Brautigam's 'China in Africa' blogpost from December 2012 reported that as of January 2011 construction had not commenced on the Poubara dam because China withdrew its support after Gabon awarded iron ore mining rights in Belinga to an Australian firm.

The implementation was planned to be in two phases. The first phase of the project was design to cover 18 villages after its construction. \nThe villages covered in phase I are : Chalinze , Pingo, Msoga, Mboga, Lugoba, Saleni, Mazizi, Msata and Kihangaiko in the south direction. In the north direction the following villages were covered, Mandera, Hondogo, Kilemela, Miono, Kikaro, Rupungwi, Kimange and Mbwewe.The coverage for this phase was 50 % of the total villages and was completed on December, 2003. \nThe cost for the phase I was 23 TShs billion. In phase I the following were implemented: intake, clarifier tanks, filter tanks, dosing room, clear water pump house, 2000 m3 clear water tank, 5 mid-way pumping stations, 3 clear water tank of 300 m3 and 6 clear water tank of 500 m3, the main pipe line and distribution pipe line, telecommunication facilities, administration building, electricity and the communication points. The length of the main pipe line is 126 km and distribution pipe line is 34 km. The project supplied piped drinking water to 20 villages (about 62,291 people). \nChina Hainan International Cooperation carried out the construction. Prior to a project extension from China in 2002, the Tanzanian deputy minister of finance reported \"Chinese government had previously disbursed over 10.9bn shillings for the Chalinze project.\" The total project cost approximately 23 billion TZS, while the total Chinese commitment was approximately $21 million.

China also granted 20 million CNY for the project. Construction began in February 2007 with China Railway Group Co., Ltd. as the contractor and was expected to be completed in October 2010. The bridge was completed sometime before 2011. The exact start date of this project is yet unknown. An official Chinese visit to the the second bridge project site occurred on April 14 2010 and progress was deemed satisfactory. Upon further inspection, the sources could refer to a mysterious \"second bridge\" or the the third bridge to cross River Niger in Niamey.  Or these may be the same project. Source from the World Bank and the UN confirm that there was construction of a bridge in 2007 in this location which cost $40 million USD funded by the Chinese Ministry of Commerce. The financial amount presented is unclear, since sources say different amounts.

Contract details reveal 35 per cent of the total investment would be paid in cash by the Nigerian side within a month, with the remaining 65 per cent taking the form of loans. The loan stipulates $114.9 million for the project's 335MW power plant, signed in 2002, at 6% interest, a grace period of 6 years, maturity in 12 years.The total cost of the project was $359.71 million, with a Chinese commitment of $297.75 million funded by the Export-Import Bank of China. Additional funding may have come from the Nigeria Power and Steel Department. The plant was put into operation in 2007. Nigerian former president Obasanjo stated in 2007 that Papalanto, as well as Chinese-financed Omotosho, were generating power for Nigeria's electricity grid in May 2007. The project was expanded, with SEPCO III securing both the original and expansion contracts, and completion was scheduled for June 2010. As part of the deal, the Nigerian Government agreed to pay for Chinese companies to help manage the power plants after construction is completed in two years' time. A 2009 article from the Centre for Chinese Studies indicated that the turbines were still under construction at that time and that the loans were backed with oil from Nigeria. In 2011, SEPCO_„Žs Project Manager, Mr Li Xianlai, visited the power plant and faulted lack of expertise on the part of the PHCN_„Žs personnel as the reason that only six of the eight turbines were working.

The dam was financed by two separately negotiated China Exim bank loans. One was a commercial export buyers_„Ž credit of US$292 million with 12 years_„Ž maturity, a grace period of five years and an interest rate set at a margin of 1.075 per cent over the prevailing Commercial Interest Reference Rates (CIRR). The other, with a fixed interest rate of 2 per cent, appeared to be either a concessional loan or a preferential export credit, for about US$270 million. Development Assistance Committee rules recommend that a mixed credit like this be reported separately: _„ƒone for the _„ñsoft_„ loan [ODA] and one for the commercial loan [OOF]. _„ƒTied aid_„Ž like this is allowed under OECD rules for projects that cannot attract commercial financing, although OECD members would be required to report the offer and its terms so that other OECD members could compete on the same terms if they were so inclined (Brautigam 2010). Just like some of China Eximbank_„Žs larger credits in countries such as Angola, the Bui Dam project finance was a resource-secured loan. In this case, it was guaranteed not through oil or minerals, but through export sales of cocoa beans. Genertec Corporation of China has a cocoa sales agreement with the Ghana Cocoa Board for up to 40 000 Mt of cocoa beans (30‘_000 main crop; 10 000 light crop) annually over the life of the loan_„îthat is, 20 years. By September of 2009, EXIM Bank had disbursed 41.73 US million dollars to Ghana for the project. China Eximbank also required Bui Hydropower to have a power purchase agreement with the Electricity Company of Ghana. The net revenue from this will be deposited into an escrow account to help repay the loan. The price for the future electricity was tentatively negotiated to be in a range between US$0.035 and US$0.055 cents kW/h (Habia 2009). The first power generating unit of 133 megawatts from the Bui hydroelectric project became operational on May 3, 2013, with plans for all 400 megawatts to come online by end of 2013. Two additional loans were made by China in 2012 for this project (ID# 30086). Sinohydro was contractor, and reports the contract total as US $596 million on its website. On May 3, 2013 President John Dramani Mahama, accompanied by a number of central and local government officials, and the Chinese Ambassador to Ghana, attended an inauguration ceremony for the dam's first turbine, with construction of the remain 3 turbines expected by the end of the year. UPDATE: The third and final generating unit of the Bui Hydroelectric Project was commissioned in December of 2013. Meanwhile, other associated and non-power works on the Project including Bui City will continue until the second quarter of 2014, when the project will be fully completed.","status":"Completion","flow":"Export credits","flow_class":"OOF-like","intent":"Mixed","amount":"292000000.0","currency":"USD","usd_defl_2014":"475239312.6","usd_current":"292000000.0","crs_sector_code":230,"crs_sector_name":"Energy Generation and Supply","sources":"http://www.pennenergy.com/index/articles/pe-article-tools-template.articles.hrhrw.News.Ghanas_cocoa_to_help_pay_China_for_building_400-MW_Bui.html, Implementing/Intermediary Agency Source;

The railway will run along Mauritania's southern border with Senegal. The agreement, signed by private Mauritanian investors and Mauritanian Transportation Minister, Ahmed Ould Mohameden, is worth 470 million Euros ($684 million USD), which is 70% of the total cost and to be financed by China's Ex-Im Bank. Updates in 2010 by wikileaks state that that the project's financial amount actually totalled 300 million USD. The remainder of the cost will be provided by Mauritania's Phosphate Company, a major beneficiary of the railway. The rail line, according to Mohameden, will allow access to new animal, agricultural, and mineral resources, and it has been proposed to link the railway to an existing network within Senegal, Mali, and Burkina Faso. Hopes are that the railway will be completed in three years time. The project appears to be untied. PPIAF ID-187. The project was expected to last three years. A Deborah Brautigam China in Africa blogpost from November 25, 2012, reports that nothing ever happened with this project in terms of Chinese involvement, and in fact an Indian firm has been mining the phosphate. It is unclear if China has also never participated in railroad construction.","status":"Cancelled","flow":"Loan (excluding debt rescheduling)","flow_class":"Vague (Official Finance)","intent":"Development","amount":"329000000.0","currency":"EUR","usd_defl_2014":"732864098.2","usd_current":"450291697.3","crs_sector_code":210,"crs_sector_name":"Transport and Storage","sources":"http://vlex.cn/vid/exim-finance-railway-project-mauritania-198787575, Media Report, including Wikileaks; http://www.ide.go.jp/English/Data/Africa_file/Manualreport/cia_10.html, Other Official Source (non-Donor, non-Recipient); http://www.railpage.com.au/f-p879499.htm, Media Report, including Wikileaks; http://www.rtbot.net/Transport_in_Mauritania, Other; http://news.xinhuanet.com/newscenter/2008-01/24/content_7485873.htm, Media Report, including Wikileaks; http://www.cridem.org/imprimable.php?article=625669, NGO/Civil Society/Advocacy; http://www.chinaafricarealstory.com/2012/11/china-and-mauritania-whatever-happened.html, Social Media, including Unofficial Blogs","sources_count":7,"cofinancing_agency":"","recipient_agencies":"Bofal Indo Mining Co.","recipient_agencies_count":"1.0","deflators_used":"0.614427284","exchange_rates_used":"0.7306375","start_actual":null,"start_planned":null,"end_actual":null,"end_planned":"2011-01-01T00:00:00","year_uncertain":0,"all_recipients":"Mauritania","recipient_count":1,"recipient_cow_code":"435.0","recipient_oecd_code":"256.0","recipient_oecd_name":"Mauritania","recipient_iso3":"MRT","recipient_iso2":"MR","recipient_un_code":"478.0","recipient_imf_code":"682.0","recipient_region":"Africa","line_of_credit":0,"is_cofinanced":0,"is_ground_truthing":"0","loan_type":"","interest_rate":" ","maturity":" ","grace_period":" ","grant_element":null,"location_details":"Nouakchott, Bofal","contacts":"Ahmed Ould Mohameden, ","source_triangulation":7,"field_completeness":8},{"_id":93,"project_id":187,"recommended_for_research":0,"umbrella":0,"year":2006,"donor":"China","funding_agency":"Export-Import Bank of China, Government Agency","implementing_agency":"Sinohydro Corporation, State-Owned Company; Sinozonto Mining Investment Co.

China Eximbank, which signed the agreement in exchange for rights to mine bauxite, backed out due to concerns over political instability in Guinea and that Guinea would not be able to guarantee bauxite concessions. The dam would likely have been linked to the Kaleta and Amaria mines. The International Rivers' spreadsheet confirmed that this was distinct from project ID #13823 and confirmed the wattage of the once-proposed project at 515 mW.","status":"Cancelled","flow":"Loan (excluding debt rescheduling)","flow_class":"Vague (Official Finance)","intent":"Development","amount":"850000000.0","currency":"USD","usd_defl_2014":"1563499344.0","usd_current":"850000000.0","crs_sector_code":230,"crs_sector_name":"Energy Generation and Supply","sources":"http://www.internationalrivers.org/files/attached-files/master_dams_updatedmay12012.xls, NGO/Civil Society/Advocacy; http://global.factiva.com/aa/?ref=AMIN000020071130e3be0000k&pp=1&fcpil=en&napc=S&sa_from=, Media Report, including Wikileaks; http://www.southworld.net/newtest/index.php/component/k2/item/134-energy-in-africa-hydroelectric-giants, Media Report, including Wikileaks; http://www.internationalrivers.org/resources/china-overseas-dams-list-3611, NGO/Civil Society/Advocacy; http://global.factiva.com/aa/?ref=AMIN000020070824e37i00002&pp=1&fcpil=en&napc=S&sa_from=, Media Report, including Wikileaks; http://www.reuters.com/article/us-guinea-hydropower-china-idUSL0760091020070707, Media Report, including Wikileaks; http://global.factiva.com/aa/?ref=EIUBF00020070127e31g0000f&pp=1&fcpil=en&napc=S&sa_from=, Media Report, including Wikileaks; http://www.accessmylibrary.com/article-1G1-153668138/china-donates-rice-fertilizer.html, Media Report, including Wikileaks; http://gn.mofcom.gov.cn/aarticle/jmxw/200707/20070704883280.html, Government Source (Donor/Recipient); http://www.ccs.org.za/wp-content/uploads/2009/06/China_Monitor_July_2009.pdf, Other Official Source (non-Donor, non-Recipient); http://scottishjournal.co.uk/paper/SJASS_Vol.19_No.2.pdf#page=3, Academic Journal Article; http://www.chinaafricarealstory.com/2010/03/earlier-this-week-chatham-house-british.html, Social Media, including Unofficial Blogs; http://www.africa-asia-confidential.com/article-preview/id/22/Dam-payment, Media Report, including Wikileaks; http://sais-cari.org/chinas-hydropower-finance-in-africa/, Other Academic (Working Paper, Dissertation)","sources_count":14,"cofinancing_agency":"","recipient_agencies":"","recipient_agencies_count":" ","deflators_used":"0.543652291","exchange_rates_used":"1.0","start_actual":null,"start_planned":null,"end_actual":null,"end_planned":"2012-01-01T00:00:00","year_uncertain":0,"all_recipients":"Guinea","recipient_count":1,"recipient_cow_code":"438.0","recipient_oecd_code":"243.0","recipient_oecd_name":"Guinea","recipient_iso3":"GIN","recipient_iso2":"GN","recipient_un_code":"324.0","recipient_imf_code":"656.0","recipient_region":"Africa","line_of_credit":0,"is_cofinanced":0,"is_ground_truthing":"0","loan_type":"","interest_rate":" ","maturity":" ","grace_period":" ","grant_element":null,"location_details":"Konkouri River in Lower Guinea Kindia Prefecture","contacts":"Sun Jimming, ; Saidou Diallo, ; Lansana KouyatÍ©, ; Cece Noramou, ; Ahmed Tidjane Diallo, ; Ahmed KantÍ©, ; Aboubacar Cisse, ","source_triangulation":16,"field_completeness":8},{"_id":94,"project_id":195,"recommended_for_research":1,"umbrella":0,"year":2006,"donor":"China","funding_agency":"Export-Import Bank of China, Government Agency","implementing_agency":"China Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC), State-Owned Company","recipient_condensed":"Nigeria","title":"Modernization of the Nigeria railway (linked to #1844)","description":"Description: In 2002, a project for the modernization of Nigeria_„Žs railway system was proposed, which China offered to finance with a 1 billion USD soft loan from the China Exim Bank. On October 30, 2006, the Chinese Civil Engineering Construction Corporation (CCECC) and the Ministry of Transportation of Nigeria signed a contract worth 8.3 billion USD for the implementation of the Lagos-Kano Railway Modernization Project and was linked with the 2006 China-Nigeria 'Oil for Infrastructure agreement' (ID#1844). The price of the project was reduced to 8 billion USD in 2009. In September 2012, Nigeria finalized a 600 million USD loan agreement with the Export-Import Bank of China to partially fund the rail line. 500 million USD will go to the rail project, while the remaining 100 million USD will finance ICT infrastructure. The loan will be repaid at 2.5 percent interest over twenty years. The grace period on the loan is seven years. In order to release funding pressures, the project was planned to be implemented in phases. The first phase of the project includes modernizing the 186.5 km Abuja to Kaduna section of the 1,313 km railway from Lagos to Kano. The cost of the first phase is projected to be 849,750,903 USD and will be constructed over 36 months. The second phase of the project is the Lagos-Ibadan section of the railway, a double track line with a total length of 156.8km and a projected speed of 150km per hour for both passengers and freight transportation. This portion is worth approximately 1.487 billion USD with a construction period of 36 months. In July 2013, the Minister of Transportation reported that 65% of the work on the Abuja-Kaduna line had been completed, while the contract for Lagos-Ibadan double track had been signed but was pending the completion of an agreement with the China Exim bank. PPIAF-ID:206 However, Deborah Brautigam reported in December 2010 that after CCECC won the $8.3 billion contract, the Chinese government had offered a line of export credit for 2 billion USD at a competitive commercial rate, as well as a preferential export credit of 500 million USD. The 2 billion USD in export credits were considered for projects other than the railway but were never used and expired. The 500 million USD preferential credit was renewed and might be used to fund a part of the railway infrastructure project. The flow type is unknown due to contradictory sources, with Brautigam referring to the commitment as an export credit and the Nigerian government referring to it as a concessional loan. As of July 2013 this project is anywhere from 27-68% completed (different sources quote different numbers), though the source of future funding is still unclear. As of July 23, 2013 the foundation stone for the building of Lots 1A and 3 stations was laid.","status":"Implementation","flow":"Loan (excluding debt rescheduling)","flow_class":"ODA-like","intent":"Development","amount":"500000000.0","currency":"USD","usd_defl_2014":"919705496.5","usd_current":"500000000.0","crs_sector_code":210,"crs_sector_name":"Transport and Storage","sources":"http://english.crcc.cn/Portals/4/LTN20120831811.pdf, Other Official Source (non-Donor, non-Recipient); http://global.factiva.com/aa/?ref=afnws00020020702dy72003uz&pp=1&fcpil=en&napc=S&sa_from=, Media Report, including Wikileaks; http://www.chinaafricarealstory.com/2010/08/real-cost-of-chinese-railway.html, Social Media, including Unofficial Blogs; http://global.factiva.com/aa/?ref=AFNWS00020090425e54p0008g&pp=1&fcpil=en&napc=S&sa_from=, Media Report, including Wikileaks; http://global.factiva.com/aa/?ref=WDAN000020091029e5as0000g&pp=1&fcpil=en&napc=S&sa_from=, Media Report, including Wikileaks; http://global.factiva.com/aa/?ref=TMRTNL0020071212e3cd0000m&pp=1&fcpil=en&napc=S&sa_from=, Media Report, including Wikileaks; http://global.factiva.com/aa/?ref=NRG0000020061105e2b50005l&pp=1&fcpil=en&napc=S&sa_from=, Media Report, including Wikileaks; http://www.miit.gov.cn/n11293472/n11293832/n11379123/n11527639/12747766.html, Government Source (Donor/Recipient); http://www.chinaafricarealstory.com/2010/12/moises-naim-and-9-billion-dollar-myth.html, Social Media, including Unofficial Blogs; http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=721518, Social Media, including Unofficial Blogs; http://www.google.co.za/#output=search&sclient=psy-ab&q=4+billion+China+Nigeria+Infrastructure+oil+2006&oq=4+billion+China+Nigeria+Infrastructure+oil+2006&gs_l=hp.3...336624.405497.0.405672.63.53.7.0.0.0.295.4538.31j13j3.47.0...0.0...1c.1.18.psy-ab.BB9ZQNdErQM&pbx=1&bav=on.2,or.r_qf.&bvm=bv.48572450,d.dmQ&fp=18c4154a0af92d76&biw=1185&bih=726, Academic Journal Article; http://allafrica.com/stories/201207190156.html, Media Report, including Wikileaks; http://www.vanguardngr.com/2013/06/new-railway-lines-to-be-executed-says-minister/, Media Report, including Wikileaks; http://www.nigeria.gov.ng/2012-10-29-11-09-25/news/437-vp-sambo-lays-track-for-abuja-kaduna-fast-train, Government Source (Donor/Recipient); http://fmi.gov.ng/minister-endorses-1-4-billion-lagos-ibadan-rail-project/, Government Source (Donor/Recipient); http://global.factiva.com/aa/?ref=LBA0000020130703e973000yq&pp=1&fcpil=en&napc=S&sa_from=, Media Report, including Wikileaks; http://global.factiva.com.proxy.wm.edu/aa/?ref=XNEWS00020130723e97n007hh&pp=1&fcpil=en&napc=S&sa_from=, Media Report, including Wikileaks; http://global.factiva.com/aa/?ref=AFNWS00020130327e93r000gc&pp=1&fcpil=en&napc=S&sa_from=, Media Report, including Wikileaks; http://global.factiva.com/aa/?ref=XNEWS00020130704e974008c1&pp=1&fcpil=en&napc=S&sa_from=, Media Report, including Wikileaks; http://www.ft.com/cms/s/0/40f9771c-fd06-11e1-a4f2-00144feabdc0.html#axzz3GJj4n2ug, Media Report, including Wikileaks; http://www.thisdaylive.com/articles/fg-china-exim-bank-seal-600m-deal-on-abuja-light-rail-galaxy-backbone/124857/, Media Report, including Wikileaks","sources_count":21,"cofinancing_agency":"","recipient_agencies":"","recipient_agencies_count":" ","deflators_used":"0.543652291","exchange_rates_used":"1.0","start_actual":null,"start_planned":"2006-10-01T00:00:00","end_actual":null,"end_planned":null,"year_uncertain":0,"all_recipients":"Nigeria","recipient_count":1,"recipient_cow_code":"475.0","recipient_oecd_code":"261.0","recipient_oecd_name":"Nigeria","recipient_iso3":"NGA","recipient_iso2":"NG","recipient_un_code":"566.0","recipient_imf_code":"694.0","recipient_region":"Africa","line_of_credit":0,"is_cofinanced":1,"is_ground_truthing":"0","loan_type":"Concessional","interest_rate":"2.5","maturity":"20.0","grace_period":"7.0","grant_element":53,"location_details":"","contacts":"Alhaji Idris Umar, Minister of Transport (Nigerian Ministry of Transportation)","source_triangulation":13,"field_completeness":8},{"_id":95,"project_id":200,"recommended_for_research":1,"umbrella":0,"year":2005,"donor":"China","funding_agency":"Export-Import Bank of China, Government Agency","implementing_agency":"Zhongxing Technologies (ZTE), State-Owned Company","recipient_condensed":"Eritrea","title":"China Exim Bank loans Eritrea 21.45 million USD for telecom network rehabilitation","description":"In 2005, ZTE agreed to a 200,000 line fixed telecom network rehabilitation project for 18 months.
