Gov't gets its P1.5B tender back

Following the latest development, the Court of Appeal (CoA) on Tuesday ruled that the State was right in its power to rescind the tender from Jiangsu as per the warning of the Directorate of Intelligence Service (DIS) that the Chinese company was a security threat.

Earlier this year, the government lost the tender to Jiangsu through a court order after the duo had engaged in messy back-to-back court battles with Zhengtai, which was awarded the tender, ordered to stop the works.
