The Russian project title is стали реконструкция и техническое перевооружение Марыйского грензавода. The Chinese project title is 中国援⼟马雷蚕种场改造项⽬ or 援⼟马雷蚕种场改造项⽬.Some sources suggest that the monetary value of the grant that supported this project was RMB 15 million rather than RMB 10 million. This issue merits further investigation.
