Hope for Forchbahn in Madagascar?

Between 2004 and 2007, this website reported several items on the shipping of various meter-gauge vehicles (mostly ex-Forchbahn) to Madagascar. The vehicles reached the island but litle progress was made on the urban rail project for which they were intended. According to an article (dated 23rd November 2010) in Limmattaler Zeitung, there is new hope for the project with a Chinese consortium now seeking to promote it.
