[Title] => Uncertainties for private sector investments
[Summary] => Private sector investment in infrastructure will continue to be the most plausible option for the Philippine government as it strives to facilitate the country’s economic growth.
However, sprucing up policies that guide and encourage privatization must be seriously done. Private investors, at the end of the day when they have spent their money to complete a project, don’t want to hear that their contracts will be amended, or worse, abrogated.

[Summary] => Commission on Elections (Comelec) Chairman Alfredo Benipayo said yesterday a recent court resolution on the stalled Voters Registration and Identification System (VRIS) project did not categorically uphold the validity of a contract awarded to winning bidder Photokina Marketing Corp.

[Summary] => Even without the rumors circulating about the principal snag in the modernization program of the Commission on Elections, the reason cited by the Comelec chairman is worrisome enough. Harriet Demetriou informed President Estrada the other day that due to lack of funds, she was suspending the implementation of the P6.5-billion computerized voter identification system. The project, called the Voters Registration and Identification System or VRIS, was supposed to minimize fraud in the May 2001 polls – the nation’s first electoral exercise in the new millennium.
