Grant Description

During a visit to Namibia in February of 2007, Hu Jintao pledged that the Chinese intended to build a research center for the University of Namibia, an institution where the Chinese language was introduced as a course. This was possibly financed through the funding promised by President Hu. It is unclear if the project ever commenced or how much it was worth.
