K2 BILLION CHINA TOWN DEVELOPMENT PROGRESSES

The construction of China Town project at 5-Mile in #AmazingPortMoresby has resumed, and progresses are being made to the development.

The project is being funded by Boasen International Holding and other Chinese consortium at a cost of K2 billion.

PNG SUN has observed that steel beams have been planted at the project site with lease marketing billboards.

The work on the project came to a halt for more than three years since its groundbreaking ceremony in April 2019. The work stopped due to Covid-19 pandemic then.

The project, which is expected to be completed next year, will create more than 10,000 jobs and business opportunities for the city residents.

The China Town, when completed, will feature recreational spots, restaurants, retail and wholesale shops, cinema and entertainment centers and office building.
