POWERCHINA is the first company in Bolivia to fully resume work and production. Since the outbreak of the novel coronavirus epidemic, it has strictly implemented various epidemic prevention measures and there has been no case of infection.
This reflected POWERCHINA's sense of social responsibility and care as a leading multinational, but also set an example for local companies in epidemic prevention and control and resumption of production.
During the epidemic, more than 500 jobs were provided to the local area, directly or indirectly benefiting an average of 2,500 families.
The infrastructure construction group has made positive contributions to improving local people's livelihoods, establishing a good overseas image for State-owned enterprises and promoting local economic development.
