AMMAN — Jordan and the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) signed on Wednesday a grant agreement to provide $20 million for assistance for a project to rehabilitate and expand water networks in Balqa Governorate.
This agreement was signed as a follow-up of the exchange of notes signed on November 20 during King Abdullah’s visit to Japan, a JICA statement said.
This project will install 35.24 kilometres of pipes, construct three reservoirs with a total capacity of 5,300 cubic metres, construct a pumping station and carry out related work.
The expected number of beneficiaries from this project is around 167,000 people, JICA said.
