The province of Zaire will have a river terminal, which, according to Manuel José António, municipal administrator, will contribute to boosting local socioeconomic development.

The project, called the Nóqui Fluvial Terminal and whose budget is 90 million dollars, will not only simplify mobility but also create jobs for local young people and help commercial exchanges between Luanda, Cabinda and Zaire.

The works will be carried out by China Harbour Engineering Company Ltd. (CHEC), according to Manuel José António. Furthermore, a delegation from the Port of Soyo made up of some Chinese, went to Nóqui, where they completed the feasibility study of the site where the pier bridge will be built.

Manuel José António added that "the construction of the Nóqui Fluvial Terminal has always been one of the concerns of the municipal authorities and the population in general".
