Jordan announces 22 projects in public-private partnership push

Jordan will work on 22 projects under its public-private partnership (PPP) initiative, which comes just weeks after the country's Lower House approved the PPP Law of 2019 that is expected to be applicable before the end of March 2020.. During an executive session organised by the American Chamber of Commerce in Jordan (AmCham-Jordan), the advisor to the Prime Minister, and head of PPP, Mahmoud Khoshman, said that the new projects in the port city of Aqaba that fall under the PPP category include a new multi-purpose port, a liquids and oil products facility, a distribution network for natural gas, and an e-commerce centre at King Hussein International Airport.. According to the chairman of the board of directors of AmCham-Jordan, Eng. Mohammed Batayneh, Jordan has previously "successfully" implemented PPP projects in the past..
