During his meeting with Hadi, the head of the Chinese technical
delegation assigned to carry out the project's survey and designs as

commence at the beginning of 2009.
This project is a fruit of the Chinese Vice President visit to Yemen lately, Hadi said.

in the future, highlighting the success of Chinese companies working in
Yemen in oil and gas domains.
The Grand National Library is to be built on 96,000 M˛ in Sana'a
