By Bohol Chronicle

The bidding of the multi-billion Panglao Bohol International Airport is a "done deal," amid reports of pre-arranged deals beteween the provincial government and the supposed winning bidder.

In a one-page statement released to the media yesterday, the Corruption Watch Philippines (CWP) alleged that CM Pancho Construction will be awarded the project since arrangements were already sealed "in consideration of P100 million."

The allegation was denied by Gov. Erico Aumentado who categorically said the "provincial government has nothing to do with the bidding since it is being handled by the bids and awards committee of the Manila International Airport Authority (MIAA)."

The same group identified a certain Nards de Guzman as the trusted man of the governor involved in the alleged arrangement.

It likewise questioned why CM Pancho Construction was included in the bidding when said firm was blacklisted by the World Bank.
Aumentado, however, admitted that CM Pancho has a good performance in the implementation of the Bohol Circumferential Road Project, particularly between Valencia to Candijay towns.

But, despite this good performance, "I don't expect CM Pancho Construction to win in the bidding considering the heavy competition posed by other internationally known bidders," Aumentado stressed.

"Mark my word, CM Pancho Construction will not win the bid," the governor said.

BIDDING POSTPONED

The bidding of the phase I of the P7 billion airport project was postponed to Feb 5, in an information relayed to the governor last Friday.

Originally, the bidding was supposed to be conducted at the MIAA offices tomorrow.

Asked on why the bidding was moved, Aumentado cited the entry of new interested bidders who joined the group that conducted site inspection last week.

Among the bidders who sent representatives during the site inspection were CM Pancho Construction, Inc., JF Legaspi Construction, Vicente Lao Construction, BSP & Co, Inc., First United Cobtractors Corp., RD Policarpo & Co.Inc., Sunwest Construction & Development Corp., Santa Clara International Corp., AM Oreta & Co. Inc.,/ Aquino Construction & Development Corp., RD Policarpo & Co.,Inc., OR Sarmiento Construction , DL Cervantes Construction & Towing Construction Readycon Trading Construction Corp., Young Builders Corp., and Dimson-Manila, Inc.

Listed in the interested bidders but failed to join the inspection team were representatives from Hanjin Heavy Industries, China State Phil. Construction Corp., Ron Daniel Construction Corp. and Equi-Parco Construction Co.

PHASE I BIDDING

Phase I of the project includes the initial stage of the 2.5 km runway worth P1.52 billion.

This includes the cleaning and grubbing, excavation , construction of embankment and drainage system; facilities for engineer and employer, project vehicles, project equipment and survey equipment.

The Panglao Bohol International Airport's project cost is P7.5 billion based on the latest estimates submitted to the National Economic Development Authority (NEDA), the MIAA and the Department of Transportation and Commuunications (DOTC).

Mahuman nalang ang election karong May 2010, dili gihapon na masugdan ang project sa Panglao. Low voltage man gani bisan walay airport, unsa kahay hitsura sa Airport kong walay suga?

Kong magsugod man gani sila, unsa nga power ilang gamiton? Naa ba diay tubig i-masa sa cemento?

Tibook Panglao hangtod karon nag antus nga walay tubig nga mainom. Kong naa man gani agas, parat sad kaayo kay walay hinlo2x ang reservoir sa Canhilbas.

It is better that this project will be bidded by the next administration to erase the doubts and accusations that the present administration is in for the money. Its a test on the sincerety of the program of the government. Anyway this project will not be finished this year.
Programs of the government does not stop with the entry of the new elected public SERVANTS (if they agree).

Gikan Presidente moagi sa excecutive secretary lahos sa DBM-hangtud sa DOTC ngari napod sa Governor agi na pod sa mayor ngato sa contractor uban sab ang sub contractor gikan sa supplier hangtud sa payroll ug mga inspector...sus di nato maihap ang laing-laing matang sa pamaagi ning corrupt nga mga kalihukan.

Suma total kuarta man gihapon na nga way hinaguan...bulsa sa mga tawo pinaagi sa buhis ang nabuslot. Unya manghambog ang Governor project ni naho....

I agree with you nat-cast they are all corrupt. If news report are being corrupted by twisting the truth how much more if it is money. We just hope that in the future it will improved by at least a lower percentage of politician involve in corruption. This is the only hope that we can expect in the Philippines.

During my younger days in the Philippines I used to work in a construction company in Makati. It seems one of the bidders in Panglao is familiar to me. I have some friends who try to established their own company, this is the moan "Politicians are always taking a percentage of any project that they approved and knew either directly or indirectly". In effect, project actual specification quality was being sacrifice. It is very difficult to change the attitude, it start with the politicians.
