The system identification number for this project in the Government of Ethiopia’s Aid Management Platform (AMP) is 87143124101631.
1 Ethiopian Birr (ETB) was equal to 0.36 Chinese yuan (RMB) in November 2011, which implies that the ETB 108,400,000 grant commitment recorded in the AMP was worth RMB 42,302,016 at the time that it was contracted.”
