Grant Description

At the 17th ASEAN-China, Japan and Republic of Korea's meeting in 2014, China announced a RMB 100 million grant for a pilot project aimed at poverty reduction in a total of six villages in Cambodia, Laos (Record ID#96325) and Myanmar (Record ID#96326). Chinese experts arrived in in 2017 to launch the pilot project in Cambodia.

With the joint efforts of Chinese experts and the Cambodian authorities, two villages in Cambodia - Svay Ampear and Chheuteal Phlos - were transformed by the end of last year.

A community center was built to offer training sessions for villagers, and water supplies and electricity were connected to all households. A total of 71 homes were rebuilt and another 190 renovated.
