People's Republic of China grants 20 Million Yuan to the Government of Colombia through and Economic and Technical Cooperation Agreement (October 2012)

On October 1, 2012, the People's Republic of China and the Government of Colombia signed a Economic and Technical Cooperation Agreement which grants 20 million Yuan (about 3.2 million USD) to Colombia.

It is unclear where the money ultimately went, but the Asociacion Ambiente y Sociedad noted several ETCA-funded projects that this agreement could have potentially funded, including training on hydraulic technology (see, potentially, #69470), the donation of cars for public entities (see Record ID#46967), the donation of computers to DIAN (see Record ID#39444), the donation of two aircrafts to the Air Force, and a donation for the implementation of the Magdalena River Development Master Plan (Plan Maestro de Aprovechamiento del Río Magdalena, see Record ID#36653) The delegation that was present at the signing of this ETCA was chaired by the Chinese Minister of Commerce.
