Steven N.Ugytudjuk.hu has learned that Győr Mayor András Csaba Dézsi suggested to the government that the much-maligned campus of China’s Fudan University be built in Győr together with the city’s proposed cultural quarter. However, the cultural quarter project is only at the planning stage at the moment, and no concrete government decision has been made or funds allocated to it.
If it goes through, the campus would be built in the Fidesz-led northwestern city instead of the opposition-led capital, where it has faced stiff resistance.
In late November, Budapest Mayor Gergely Karácsony said he had learned that the government had actually given up on the Fudan project. [Telex]
