HARARE: Zimbabwe and China are this week set to sign agreements facilitating implementation of eight projects agreed upon by the two countries during last month’s visit to Beijing by Vice President Emmerson Mnangagwa, state radio reported Tuesday.
Quoting Chief Secretary to the President and Cabinet Misheck Sibanda, the Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corporation said Zimbabwe would on Friday sign for the implementation of eight project deals with a visiting team of experts from the National Development and Reform Commission of China.
It said this was a follow-up to the various memoranda of understanding signed between Zimbabwe and Chinese companies when Mnangagwa visited the Asian country in July.
“About eight projects from key sectors such as roads and railways, energy and power, tourism, mining, manufacturing among others, will be put into effect,” according to ZBC radio.
China and Zimbabwe have sound political relations and the two countries are working towards boosting their economic cooperation.
