Description
Description | The project consists of the PWR investment program for the fiscal year 1967/68 covering requirements for motive power and rolling stock, track material and equipment, plant and machinery for workshops, continuation of electrification and for miscellaneous engineering and structural works and bridge strengthening. In arranging procurement, the government has aimed at placing orders so as to standardize equipment and purchase at the lowest cost. The proceeds of the proposed bank loan would be used to finance the import of track materials, materials and components for the local manufacture of rolling stock and plant and machinery for workshops. In addition to the proposed bank loan, funds will be made available by Germany, the United Kingdom and the United States and negotiations with these countries are either already concluded or well advanced. All contracts to be financed from the proceeds of the proposed bank loan would be placed on the basis of international competitive bidding. |
