Haishan Group International, one of the largest private Chinese construction companies operating in Angola, has mobilized its manpower and equipments to repair over 400 meters of the trunk road - Camama express way damaged by rain water in southern Luanda, it said Wednesday.
Haishan would use some 800,000 U.S. dollars to rehabilitate the road as part of its efforts to pay back to the Angola society, said Wen Huaiyu, managing director of the company.
The repair work was expected to be finished in 10 days with 10 Chinese workers from Haishan and four Angolan workers working with heavy-duty trucks, road dozers and other equipments round the clock a day, Wen said.
