Grant Description
In 2018, the Chinese government granted 20 million PGK for the International Conference Centre (ICC) Reconstruction Project (IIC or Waigani Convention Center Project) project outside of Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea.
China previously granted $20.2 million USD in 2009 (see Record ID#64130) and another 8 million PGK in 2010 (see Record ID#73611) for this same project. The upgrading project started in December 2017.
The project is also captured by the 2018 MOFCOM Investment guide, which reports that the construction area is 9,920 square meters. The refurbished ICC was handed over on April 11, 2018, in time to host the 2018 APEC meetings. China IPPR International Engineering Company, a subsidiary of Sinomach, was the contractor.
The project included added more rooms, a multi-functional hall, press center, and dining hall (
