Grant Description

On August 24, 2014, the Chinese Government and the Government of Comoros signed letters of exchange related to the Malouzini Sports Stadium Construction Project.

Then, on March 25, 2016, the Chinese Economic and Commercial Counsellor's Office in Comoros signed an implementation agreement for the project. China’s Ministry of Commerce was the source of funding and it reportedly committed RMB 180 million of grant funding. The project involved the construction of a 10,000 seat stadium in the capital city of Moroni.

It includes a football field with a natural lawn and an athletics track with 8 lanes measuring 400 meters in length.

China IPPR International Engineering Company was the contractor responsible for project design and Shanghai Construction Group was the contractor responsible for project implementation. On May 21, 2016, a formal groundbreaking ceremony took place. However, project implementation did not begin until October 16, 2016.

The project passed mid-term MOFCOM inspection in January 2018 and it was officially completed and handed over to the Government of Comoros on May 22, 2019.
