📋 Staff Comments

It is not clear which specific project this financial commitment supported, so AidData has coded this commitment as an umbrella project for the time being. Also, there is no evidence from Macedonia’s Ministry of Finance that it has ever contracted any education sector loans from Chinese Government institutions, so AidData has set the flow variable to Grant and the flow class variable to ODA-Like.
