Controversy

Dongfang was accused by General Electric in court papers of befitting from a rigged tendering process awarded by South African utility giant Eskom to install a new boiler at the Duvha Power Station. General Electric claims that Dongfang got the contract event thought its bid was R1 billion (US$76 million) more than the General Electric bid.[8][9]
