About JPY 104.530-billion (~PHP 51USD 0.87INR 74EUR 0.83CNY 6-billion) was loaned by the Japan International Cooperation Agency. The Department of Transportation signed a design-build contract with the Shimizu Joint Venture.

Along with the tunnel structures and facilities of the Philippine Railway Institute, the three stations will be built and designed under the joint venture of Shimizu Corporation, Fujita Corporation, Takenaka Civil Engineering Co., Ltd., and EEI Corporations.

One of the reasons why we have slow major infrastracture development are the leaders. Politicians are too heart-driven and corrupt that public services are affected. Examples are cory and noynoy aquino, not continuing marcos and gloria projects just because they don’t like macoy and glo. Let’s see if the president after duterte will still honor the contract or just pocket the remaining budget in coming years. I’m still waiting though for this govt. to jail abad, abaya, and the rest of bidders on the mrt hassle that happened before.
