Ashghal and QFFD officials in Somalia.
A technical delegation from the Public Works Authority (Ashghal) recently visited Somalia for signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Qatar Fund For Development (QFFD), to provide technical services and consultations, and manage the projects financed by QFFD outside Qatar.
The delegation consisted of Ashghal engineer Ahmed and technical manager Ali al-Ansari, Roads Design Department assistant engineer Abdulaziz Ali al-Sada, and senior road design engineer Abdulaziz Salah El-dein Omar.
The visit was to study the implementation of two roads projects – namely 30km Mogadishu-Afghoy, and the 90km Mogadishu-Balad-Jowhar. The team interacted with a number of Somali officials to obtain all technical information on the two projects, in addition to discussing the available capabilities and resources locally, as well as reviewing laws and contractual procedures in Somalia.
The delegation also conducted site visits to the two projects accompanied by a technical team from the Somali side to inspect the current construction works and the traffic situation on the two roads, in addition to checking restoration and maintenance records.
The Ashghal team will prepare a detailed technical report on the visit and its results as well as prepare suitable recommendations and proposals for the planning and execution of the projects in line with the estimated costs and the contributions specified by the QFFD. On the sidelines of the visit, Ashghal delegation held talks with Prime Minister of Somalia, Minister of Planning and Economic Development, Minister of Public Works, Minister of Justice, the Under-secretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Office Director of President of Somalia.
