The project construction was started in December 2020 as an important China-aid project set by the two governments. In the past two years, CQEC’s?on-site management team overcame lots of?challenges caused by?COVID-19 pandemic and other difficulties, strictly performed the project management and construction supervision duties in comply?with the rules of China-aid projects. Which in turn has gained us high comments from both Sierra Leone?and China sides.
