"Chinese investment in residential construction in Africa: The role of ABTs" presentated by Dr Mi Zhou at the African Union for Housing Finance (AUHF) Conference, November 17-18, 2014 in Cape Town.
In the past year, economic situation has changed a lot, developing countries are facing much more challenges. The Sino-African relationship is getting stronger. Real estate is becoming more and more important in Chinese outward FDI, which is 3.67% of all in 2013, reaching the peak high in the past decade. As to the real estate industry, more capital has flown into the developed countries for long-term investment.
Africa needs more houses to meet different kinds of demand, based on climates, habits and income, while in most cases, land is not the first factor to consider. Chinese contractors have accumulated quite some experiences in ABT field, which would be quite helpful for the building in Africa. With rapid development, there is huge space for building in Africa, ABT should be considered if applicable.
Key message of the presentation:
• Sino-African cooperation in building has quite some space
• China has quite some experiences in ABT
• ABT should be important when considering the different factors

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Editor's Notes
There are a few procurement method available in the industry, as we all know establishing a procurement strategy at the outset is key to a successful outcome. There are a few criteria which are time, cost and quality that we need to consider in developing procurement strategy. In most cases, the priorities of projects will fall into the are illustrated A, B and C in the diagram where two of the 3 criteria are identified as most important to project success. It is rare for t, c and q to be equal important in a project.
So for in this scenario, it is said that 6 weeks b4 cny, fire occurs in KLIA2 has damaged the booing hall. It is one of the busiet time of the year and could suffer a huge amount of profit if they aren’t able to cater for the holiday demand. Thus, it is crucial to fix this damaged airport. The procurement method I think that is suitable for this senario is MC. Why do I think so?
So, the main issue of the scenario is that the airport is heading towards one of the busiest time of the year. It is important to fix the problem in time to make sure they can cater the holiday demand as usual without facing any loss. Thus, it is much suitable to use MC because normally it is used on project where there is shortage of time, like the scenario above. Also, It is also suitable for complex building, airport might have a lot of arched roof. The arched forms of the roof structure and building structure that incorporate light walls to channel natural daylight from the roof to the first floor, all these required specialist to fix. Moreover, Mc is sub-contacted to specialist in work packages , this ensures the quality of the service provided.
Flexible in design
- It would cost a bunch when the client decided to change the project design here and there because the jobs are being done one by one by the sub cons and furthermore, the price certainty would not be achieved until the final work packages have been let, therefore, changes can be done
Cost Saving
As there would be contractors who are competing to hand in the tenders, the client would save more cost in choosing the lowest tender but not burdening to the contractor
Quality
Quality/design risk is low as the link between client, designers and contractors are close
As the designers and contractors are being chosen by the client, unlike the MC, the client would choose the most trustable to follow up on the designs and constructions that he wants.
The client wants to convert the old rice mills into high-quality residents, therefore, the cost certainty would be higher because the cost to hire a nominated contractor to work on the specialized designs that the clients wants are much higher than to hire a normal contractor.
The construction manager manages the works, but the employer has a major role in directing the project, therefore, the quality of the building would hit the target that the developer wants
Time Saving
– because the overall project as the design and construction are overlapped
As it is on the property boom period the completion time for the property to be ready to be sold is limited as the property would be difficult to be sold off during the property slump and as we know that property boom doesn’t last long and during property boom the time taken for a property to be sold is quicker.

Cost
As there are a lot of competitive
Cost Certainty
-it allows a certain amount of control over costs. In general, lump sum contracts result in a contractor agreeing to take on the responsibility for both the design and construction of a project for an agreed price. The contractor may have their own team of designers or may engage an outside firm.
Low Risk
Low risk option for client who wish to minimise their exposure to the risk of overspend, delays or design failure.
