According to Middle East Online, a deal signed by Algeria with China on 14 April 2010 will pave the way for the construction of a new Opera House in Ouled Fayet at a cost of more than $30 million.
Algerian Culture Minister Khalida Toumi said:
'This big cultural project [...] is a gift from the Chinese government to Algeria', explaining that it was decided on during a visit to China by Algerian President Abdelaziz Bouteflika in November 2006.
Construction of the Opera House in the western suburb of Ouled Fayet is due to start before the end of 2010, a Chinese embassy official said.
