The government is going to speed up ‘public private partnership’ projects

The government says it is going to take on more risk in order to speed up ‘public private partnership’ projects. “We are not willing to wait for the private sector to settle their differences. While private companies quarrel among themselves as to who will make the profit, the public suffers from lack of infrastructure. The Duterte administration is willing to take the construction risks and spend budgeted funds to start projects early,” Finance Secretary Carlos G. Dominguez III said.
