Grant Description

On August 31, 2017, the Chinese Government agreed to provide an RMB 1.5 billion grant ($230 million) grant to the Government of Tajikistan for the Government Complex and Parliamentary Complex Construction Project (captured via Record ID#53786).

Then, in 2018, the Chinese Government committed an additional RMB 900 million in grant funding for the same project (captured via Record ID#71727).

The purpose of the project is to finance the construction of a new parliament and government complex that is 49.7 meters high and that occupies a total area of 42,874 square meters. The project involves the construction of a 15-story building and two 13-story buildings on 10.27 hectares of land.

The parliament complex is to be built in Dushanbe on Rudaki Avenue, and the government complex is to be built in downtown Dushanbe on Rudaki Avenue and Ismoili Somoni Avenue.

The designed service life of both buildings is 100-years and each building structure consists of a reinforced concrete frame with a seismic precautionary intensity of 9 degrees.

The main building includes a 1500-seat conference hall for joint session, a conference hall of the upper house, a conference hall of the lower house, a round-table conference hall, working rooms for the speaker, the deputy speaker and other members working in the permanent offices of the parliament, and it also includes the presidential exclusive rooms, garages, equipment rooms, landscaping, office furniture, etc.

Yanjian Group is the contractor responsible for construction.

Beijing Architectural Design and Research Institute Co., Ltd and Shenyang Engineering Supervision and Consulting Co., Ltd are responsible for the management and supervision of the project.

On October 13, 2018, President of Tajikistan Emomali Rahmon and Premier of the State Council of the People's Republic of China Li Keqiang participated in a formal groundbreaking ceremony for the project.

Then, on June 15, 2019, Xi Jinping and President Rahmon attended a ceremony to unveil the construction models for the buildings after their talks in Dushanbe. Construction ultimately began on or around April 13, 2020. The project was originally scheduled to commence on March 15, 2020 and reach completion on March 15, 2023.

The project's expected completion has been delayed to October 2023.
