                    [Summary] => The Japanese agency funding the capacity expansion of the Light Rail Transit (LRT) Line 1 urged the Philippine government yesterday to expedite the project process so that it could be completed soon. 


In a letter to Transportation Secretary Leandro Mendoza, Osamu Murata, Manila office chief of the Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC), warned the Arroyo government might be held liable and compelled to pay the contractors the amount of the total cost of the project if it is discontinued.


Murata earlier said the project was estimated to cost P8.5 billion.

Ito ay matapos na tapusin na ni Rep. Augusto Baulio, chairman ng House committee on RORO (roll-on, roll-off) ang inquiry at sinabing legal at walang anomalya sa pagkakapanalo ng Sumitomo ng Japan sa nasabing bidding.

Ito ang ipinahayag ng Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC) sa kanilang liham kay Budget Acting Secretary Mario Relampagos.


Nababahala si JBIC chief representative Osamu Murata na ang patuloy na pagkabalam ng pagpapatupad ng LRT expansion project ay lalong magpapalobo sa pagkalugi ng bansa.
