MBANZA-KONGO, Angola, Dec. 24 (Xinhua) -- Chinese, Portuguese and South Korean entrepreneurs will jointly develop a mariculture project to create several marine species in a natural large-scale open environment in Angola's northern Zaire province.
The plan was announced here Tuesday by Gouveia Pedro, director of the provincial office of agriculture, livestock and fisheries.
The project will be implemented in 2020 in Mukula, a coastal zone of the Tomboco municipality in Zaire province.
Mukula's sea coast is rich in such marine species as shellfish, red snapper fish, horse mackerel, croaker, sardines, grouper and sword fish.
This initiative, which includes the construction of a village to house the workers for the project, will creat more than 2,000 direct and indirect jobs, Pedro said.
