Hahaha indeed the Chinese government has invested in a lot op projects in Suriname. It wouldn't surprise me if they'll make it clear to be interested in the project, but haven't heard anything as of yet.
I haven't done enough research to state if the government used tax payers money, but before or during the Independence of Suriname in 1975, the Dutch government gave Suriname a sort of "trust" of I don't know how much money, that should have been used in development projects. Suriname had to use those funds before a certain time period and part of that money was planned to be used in this project and a part was used in the first hydro power plant. During the coup the military used the money for a lot of small scale projects. But a lot wasn't invested in long term plans. I don't even know if all was used though.
Yeah... Those falls are heavenly... Didn't use the pictures we made, because I could use those for another post about the falls itself π
Thank you for the gifts π
