ADB grant for Indonesia

MANILA (AFP): The Asian Development Bank (ADB) said here it had approved a 900,000 dollar technical assistance grant to Indonesia to assist a flood control project in Java.

The grant will go into developing a long-term flood control and management plan for Java and feasibility studies for flood control works in certain river basins, the Manila-based ADB said in a statement on Thursday.

The project will cover flood-prone areas near river basins in the south and north coasts of Java, the ADB said.
