Rwanda secures $1 bln funding deal with South Korea

KIGALI, July 5 (Reuters) - Rwanda's Finance Ministry said on Friday that South Korea has awarded it $1 billion in concessionary loans to fund projects in several sectors including transport, healthcare, and education.

The agreement for 2024-2028 doubles and replaces a previous four-year $500 million deal that was expected to finish at the end of 2026, the finance ministry said in a statement.

Rwanda's government said in May that a total of 1.32 trillion Rwandan francs ($1.02 billion) in the 2024/25 budget would come from external loans.

Rwanda's President Paul Kagame was among African leaders who attended a summit in South Korea in early June, that included meeting the country's President Yoon Suk Yeol.

($1 = 1,299.7000 Rwandan francs)

[Rwanda Forum] Who is Axel Muganwa Rudakubana, the butcher of Southport, UK?

   If Axel Muganwa Rudakubana had been a son of a Hutu, what would have been the news headlines in Kagame's mouthpiece tabloids? Since Axel Rudakubana's parents are Tutsi genocide survivors, and his father, Alphonse Rudakubana, is a nephew of Wellars Gasamagera, the Secretary General of Rwanda's ruling party - RPF, the tragedy that occurred in the UK has not been mentioned by any tabloids or news outlets in Rwanda. However, had Axel Muganwa Rudakubana been a child of a Hutu, or a child of a Tutsi opposition figure, we can all guess the type of headline that would have appeared in the tabloid controlled by Criminal Paul Kagame. But now, they remain silent on this despicable tragedy. FYI...

Fwd: [Rwanda Forum] Kagame aritegura gupfa. Ashaje yanduranya cyane !

Kagame aritegura gupfa. Ashaje yanduranya cyane !   Ibimenyesto ni byinshi. Asigaye avuga Imana ariko yanageraho akayivugira ibitaribyo, akayibeshyera, akavuga abo atashimiye yabajyana mu muriro utazima.   Asigaye yiyambaza Imana kuko abona ko byarangiye, ubuzima burimo ku mucika. Imyaka ibaye myinshi  asuzugira amadini n'abaykorera, yarerekana ko amadini ntacyo amaze, ko ahubwo yakoze genocide. Ko amadini nta terambere yazanye mu Rwanda, ko byose u Rwanda rufite rwatangiriye kuri we.

Biyo nta kabuza azajya mu ijuru. Kagame rero agomba kuba azi ko iminsi ye ibaze. Amaze kubona ko Imana ntaho yayihungira ku bibi yakoreye abanyarwanda.
