[Title] => ‘Delay in Comelec project could scare investors’
[Summary] => Newly re-elected Sen. Juan Flavier warned yesterday that delay in the computerization program of the Commission on Elections (Comelec) could scare away foreign investors and adversely affect the 2004 presidential elections.
This developed as the poll body insisted that the notice of award to the Photokina consortium that won the bid for the P1.2-billion Voter’s Registration and Identification System (VRIS), may be cancelled anytime without liability on their part since no contract was entered into.
