Subway Construction in Beijing Gets Canadian Fund
A Sino-Canadian joint venture will be founded for the construction of the No. 5 subway in Beijing, the Beijing Daily reported Wednesday.

Of the total investment of 100 million yuan (US$12 million) for the project, 62.5 percent will come from the Beijing No. 5 Subway Investment Corp. of China, and the rest from SNC-Lavalin of Canada, the report says.
