Songkhla Governor Somporn Chaibangyang said the terms of reference, along with e-auction procedures for the project, are being drawn up, with 17 companies having so far expressed interest to bid for the project. Bidding for the project is scheduled for September 11 and it is expected that it will take two months to finalise the contract. Implementation of removing the visually unpleasant tangle of cables and moving them underground should take about a year to complete, the governor said. --TNA 2006-07-23 Link to post Share on other sites
