On her part, Ms. Uramoto said that they selected the PRIMEX proposal out of four bids based on the quality of the proposal and the high caliber of the nominated specialists. She said that she has no doubt that the project will run smoothly and accomplish its objectives.
Mr. Luis P. Eleazar will lead the survey team composed of Mr. Felix Noel A. Pascua, Jr., Natural Environment Specialist; Mr. Rizalino M. Barandino, Social Environment Specialist; Ms. Amida Diwata M. Jasma, Natural Environment Assistant; and Mr. Arnold D. Garzon, Social Environment Assistant.
