 * China Likely To Continue Infrastructure Investments Over The Next Five Years **

In the next five years China is likely to continue to invest in Rwanda infrastructure projects. There have been a total of 3 infrastructure projects totaling USD 176 million that include various infrastructure developments. Of this money, China’s primary focus has been on the construction and reconstruction of Rwanda’s road network. Due to Rwanda’s performance in PNGSM, the Chinese are unlikely to invest in infrastructure projects that coincide with petroleum and natural gas; however strategic minerals offer a potential for Chinese investments.
 * Executive Summary: **

The Chinese are not actively involved in corresponding PNGSM infrastructure projects in Rwanda; however the Chinese have made contributions toward Rwanda's road network.
