The ministry’s project management boards had received 60 applications as of the end of July, two months after the international bidding invitation. Four of the projects did not have investors that passed the prequalification requirements; two projects had only one; one project had two; and one project had three, according to the report made by the procuring entity and State agencies. “The number of investors passing this stage was not high, leading to a lack of competition,” the ministry said.
