Chinese investors in the standard gauge railway (SGR) project generally responded fairly to local concerns, a study by US-based researchers has found. The report of the study published by the Washington-based China Africa Research Initiative on Monday says officials of the Chinese Road and Bridge Corporation, the builder of the $3.8 billion railway, “made a visible effort to set up mechanisms to help them engage with local communities and address their concerns.”
China Africa Research Initiative is affiliated with the Johns Hopkins University School of Advanced International Studies.
