Hong Kong Aerospace Technology Group (HKATG) and Touchroad International Holdings Group signed with the government of Djibouti a MOU for a $1 billion 30 year lease agreement to build and operate a spaceport in the country's Obock region. Construction of the spaceport, which will be used for launching Chinese satellites, is expected to begin after the three parties sign a formal agreement in March.
