If it will be a grant, what shoul be estimate amount? Diependin on grant’s velue, we would like to get goods (about $5 million velue or less) from the list of identified “needs assesment“ wich was already sent to you. > > 3. In case of long-term (big-scale) loan: As you mentioned before, in order to get JICA’s interest, the project size will be over 2 billion JPY (about $18 million). Our interest will be to buy all 206 Emergency Cars and totally replase old vehicles with new ones. Considering that Japanese cars are more expensive than other manufacturers, Does loan conditions allow us to make purchies from other country manufacturers? > > > > Regards, > > Eka Kapanadze > > > > Head of Planning Division > > LEPL - Emergency Situations Coordination and Urgent Medical Assistance Center > > Ministry of Labour, Health and Social Affairs of Georgia > > > > > > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Mayuko Taniguchi [mailto:m2-taniguchi@nri.co.jp] > > Sent: Monday, December 17, 2018 2:42 PM > > To: Eka Kapanadze > > Cc: Zaza Bokhua; Maia Nikoleishvili; Avtandil Talakvadze; teagzirishvili.ems@gmail.com; Archil Machavariani; Davit Goginashvili; simanukifine@live.jp > > Subject: Re: [jica-cis/caucasus]Healthcare/Georgia > > > > Dear Eka and All, > > > > Thank you for reply. > > If you read 19 th Nov mail (sorry long) ,you can understand what information I requested... > > > > I want to know just only total cost. scale of the needs (≒detail of equipment and ambulance). > > I feel that each center and hospital need more ambulance and medical equipment than your data. > > And please include rural area's hospital equipment and renovation cost.also emergency center's renovation cost. > > JICA's project format is attachment(AnnexⅡ) ,but I already wrote it by myself ,so not to need to make it. > > Now blank is cost (amount and detail ). > > > > JICA will not know unless we write and indicate what is in our head and in our heart. > > If you are having trouble how to write, please contact me soon... > > I set as a short list project, but if there is no answer the priority will be lowered.とても悲しい。 > > > > ***** > > JICA 's support is not tomorrow ,so during thinking about project etc the need will change in future (I think ). > > My request is review the data. > > Many rural and mountain area is tourism spot ,so in future tourist increase ,hospital and center need more ambulance etc. > > Yesterday I wrote and introduced tourisum's issue and merit in my Facebook. > > > > If it is difficult to estimate, it is necessary to write temporary amount based on some hypothesis. > > Depending on the size of the amount, JICA's interest and project scheme will change, so I advised. > > > > Therefore, if I need to visit again and need to confirm additional information etc, you need to inform me of the needs as soon as possible and I will consult with JICA. > > JICA will decide whether additional investigation in January is necessary during December. > > > > Best regards, > > Mayu > > > > On Sun, 16 Dec 2018 21:51:19 +0400 > > "Eka Kapanadze" wrote: > > > > > Dear Mayuko, > > > I am sending the letter on behalf of Avtandil Talakvadze, Of course > > > we are interested in the support and assistance of the Japanese > > > government, especially in field of emergency medical care service, but > > > we did not identify clearly what kind of information is needed to be > > > sent, and what is the format of official application.
