• 7 Jun 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, the evaluation of contractors in that case is not only on financials only. That is because if we restricted our evaluation only on the financials, it would mean that anybody, even without any equipment or experience in the field of construction, would just come and bid and tomorrow, we will give him the tender on account of being the lowest bidder.
