China Gets Good Press for Dam in Guinea

Bloomberg Business published on 29 September 2015 an article titled "China Wins Africa Friends by Building Dam in Ebola Outbreak" by Franz Wild and Ougna Camara. 

The article reports the completion of a Chinese-financed hydropower dam built by the China International Water and Electric Corporation.  Reportedly finished on budget and a year ahead of schedule, the Chinese workers remained on the job throughout the Ebola crisis while two Western companies stopped work on their projects in Guinea.
