The planned privatization of the National Transmission Company (Transco) is taking a long time coming, and it’s not helping the government any. There have already been two biddings conducted by the controversy-ridden Power Sector Assets and Liabilities Management Corporation or PSALM since 2001 — both of them utter failures — and it looks like the third bidding process set for Jan. 22 this year is going to be postponed again.
