U.S. to Build Ethiopian Drug-Warehouse 'Super Structures'
U.S. Trade & AId Monitor ^ | July 18, 2011 | Steve Peacock

The design and construction of pharmaceutical warehouses are in the planning stages for Ethiopia, courtesy of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). The agency today issued a presolicitation notice alerting potential vendors to the release of an upcoming Request for Proposals (RFP), which USAID expects to release around July 28. The RFP will provide greater detail about the project, which aims to build ten "super structures" on substructures that the Government of Ethiopia already has put in place. The facilities are located in the regions of Addis Ababa, Adama, Arbaminch, Awassa, Bahirdar, Dessie, Diredawa, Jimma, Mekelle, and Nekemte.

The plan follows last month's donation of vehicles and equipment to Ethiopia valued at $1.7 million specific to the distribution of pharmaceuticals throughout that nation. The initiative is linked to the United States President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief, also known as PEPFAR.

I suppose President Chelsea Clinton Mezvinsky can bomb it in 2026, and say it was a WMD factory or something?
