SHADES OF PIATCO: : In a privilege speech Tuesday, Senator Sergio Osmeña III questions the awarding of the construction and 25-year management of the Mactan-Cebu International Airport (MCIA) terminal to GMR Infrastructure Ltd of India, which he described as a “foreign firm with a questionable operating background and a currently unstable financial position.” Its Filipino partner is Megawide Construction Corporation. “As a Cebuano, I am very much concerned because if this project is done well, it could send the people of Cebu soaring to higher levels of tourism and other commercial activity that would result in more jobs and higher income for tens of thousands,” Osmeña said in his speech.
