For a country like Lao with a GDP of 15 billion, they have spent $ 6 billion on this project. but the funny part is $3.6 billion of it is a loan from a chinese bank by Lao. Another $480 million is contributed by the Laon government, which in turn again took a loan from Chinese Bank. net, Lao took $4 billion loan for a single project, which is 27% of its GDP..
with a rate of return on investment of 4.65% on the total investment for the project vs interest payment for the loan + Operations cost of the projects, only God, XI and our friend
@Beijingwalker would know how good is the project for the Laon people..
