At least 5,000 foreign workers will be shipped into the country to undertake the construction of the 609km standard gauge railway from Mombasa to Nairobi, officials said Tuesday.
The foreign workers, mainly Chinese, will supplement the 30,000 local workers who will be recruited for the Sh327 billion project that commences in October.
