ANGELES CITY, Philippines—Public Works Secretary Rogelio Singson has barred several contractors from participating in any new bidding until they finish on time their projects for the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation (Apec) scheduled at the Clark Freeport in 2015, Angeles City Mayor Edgardo Pamintuan said.

Singson instructed Antonio Molano Jr., Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) regional director in Central Luzon, Pamintuan told the Inquirer on the sidelines of the Regional Development Council meeting on Wednesday.

“Put them on suspension para matuto (so they will learn),” Pamintuan quoted Singson as saying.–Tonette Orejas
