Chinese Ambassador HE Cao Xiaolin hands over the donations to Tonga's Prime Minister at Fa'onelua Convention Centre, Nuku'alofa. 12 January 2022.

A donation of over 200 computers and eight farm tractors from China’s Dongguan City, Guangdong Province, was handed over to the Tongan Government at the Fa’onelua Convention Centre in Nuku’alofa this afternoon.

Chinese Ambassador HE Cao Xiaolin signed over the goods to the Prime Minister at an official ceremony, and said, “This is the first batch of grant-aid assistance from China to the new Tongan Government at the beginning of 2022.”

The ambassador outlined a number of China-aid projects to be implemented this year including the royal military band facility project expected to be completed in the first half of the year.

“If the border of Tonga opens sometime this year, the customs inspection equipment from China will be installed and launched, and the wind power farm project and Tonga High School complex project will start to construct. At the same time, more water tanks, farm tractors, computers, solar power street lights and police vehicles will be provided to the Tongan government and the Tongan people.”

The Prime Minister was pleased to receive the donated tractors and computers and thanked the Chinese Embassy for their support across a variety of sectors.

The official handover ceremony was attended by Ministers, the Chinese Embassy staff, and Tongan government staff.
