The Minister for special Development Initiative Hawa Koomson receiving the items on behalf of government lauded the efforts of the Chinese government in the development of agriculture in the country.

“I believe that this grant from The People’s Republic of China is a testimony of the growing strategic collaboration between our two countries. I was privileged to be part of the Vice president’s delegation to China, I was warmly received in China and had the opportunity to visit the Wuzheng Industrial enterprise zone.

On his part, the Chief Executive Officer of the Savannah Accelerated Development Authority Charles Abugri pledged that the equipment will be used for the intended purpose.
